  • Patent number: 11975413
    Abstract: A production station for vehicle body parts is configured in a modular manner and has at least two production cells (8, 10; 12, 14), each of which has a separate work area (16, 18; 20, 22). The work areas have uniformly disposed robots (64, 66, 68, 70) and receiving arrangements (32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42) that interact with the robots. At least one transport arrangement (56) for required components (58, 60, 62) and workpieces (44, 46) is provided for both production cells (8, 10; 12, 14). A receiving arrangement store (24, 26; 28, 30; 110) with all of the receiving arrangements is assigned to each production cell (8, 10; 12, 14), and a transport arrangement (48, 50; 52, 54; 111) is provided for at least one production cell. The production cells are coupled to one another via a connecting axle (102) having at least one connecting robot (104).

  • Publication number: 20220043822
    Abstract: Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for query execution in a multi-tenant cloud service. The method includes one or more processors determining category classes for service queries. The method further includes sending for execution, a selected number of service queries from one of the determined category classes to a shadow query engine. Respective service queries of the categorically classified service queries comprise a different set of configuration parameter values for the shadow query engine. The method further includes recording metadata for the selected number of service queries of the one category class executed on said shadow query engine. The method further includes determining correlations between the recorded metadata.
