  • Patent number: 10769708
    Abstract: Various embodiments relate generally to data science and data analysis, computer software and systems, and control systems to provide a platform to facilitate implementation of an interface and one or more sensors, and, more specifically, to one or more sensors that implements specialized logic to facilitate in-situ monitoring of inventories of consumables and automatic reordering of a consumable. In some examples, a method may include receiving sensor data representing usage of a device configured to process a consumable, characterizing the usage to form a characterized value, correlating data representing a unit of the consumable processed via the device to a characterized value of the usage, adjusting an amount representing an inventory of the consumable, detecting an amount of the inventory of the consumable is associated with one or more ranges of threshold values, and generating data representing a request to replenish the inventory of the consumable.

  • Patent number: 10719860
    Abstract: Various embodiments relate generally to data science and data analysis, computer software and systems, and control systems to provide an interface, and, more specifically, to a computing and data storage platform that implements specialized logic to facilitate adaptive scheduling automatically to optimally distribute items, such as shipping an item in accordance with an adapted frequency for a subscription. In some examples, a method may include identifying item characteristics associated with an item, determining a frequency based on at least an item characteristic in association with a subset of subscriber accounts, generating data representing a frequency and a subset of the item characteristics to integrate with a web page generated for a merchant computing system, and transmitting the formatted data to a user interface to display a display portion based on the formatted data as an integrated portion of an integrated web page including the web page.

  • Publication number: 20200228587
    Abstract: Within a portion of a currently executing compiled streams application according to a request to modify a configuration of the portion, a placement is performed of an operator of the currently executing compiled streams application into a processing element, wherein the currently executing compiled streams application has a configuration assigned before application execution began. In response to the placement, a resource allocation corresponding to the placement is performed according to the request, the resource allocation specifying a resource assigned to the processing element. The processing element is activated to execute the operator according to the placement and the resource allocation.

  • Publication number: 20200225989
    Abstract: According to a request to modify a configuration of the portion, a portion of a currently executing compiled streams application is modified by computing a current composite load on a resource used by an executing processing element. As a part of modifying the configuration, within the portion according to the request, a composite load on a first candidate resource is predicted. Based on the predicted composite load, a configuration modification is generated based on a predicted throughput improvement resulting from migrating the processing element to the first candidate resource. The processing element is migrated, resulting in a throughput improvement, to a target resource selected from a set of candidate resources, a resource in the set of candidate resources categorized based on a predicted second composite load resulting from migrating the processing element to the second candidate resource according to the configuration modification.

  • Patent number: 10676018
    Abstract: A bank angle of a vehicle can be accurately calculated using yaw axis data and roll axis data, and based on the calculated bank angle, vehicle illumination optics can be controlled to maintain a pattern of distributed light from the illumination optics to be generally horizontal. The calculated bank angle may be zeroed when the yaw axis data equals zero. The improved pattern of distributed light from the illumination optics illuminates a more natural field of view for the vehicle driver during a bank.

  • Publication number: 20200121830
    Abstract: Implants including non-resorbable frameworks and resorbable components, as well as methods of use thereof are disclosed. The embodiments include different combinations of a non-resorbable framework (in some case structural and in other cases non-structural), and a resorbable component embedded within and/or around the framework (again, in some cases structural and in other cases non-structural). The disclosed implants provide an efficient means of providing structural support for the vertebral bodies post-implantation, as well as encouraging resorption of the implant and fusion of the associated vertebral bodies without negative side effects and/or failure, such as subsidence of the implant or cracking/fracturing of a portion of the implant when implanted.

  • Publication number: 20200107496
    Abstract: A spreader for spreading particulate material has a plurality of outlets transversely spaced-apart in a direction perpendicular to a direction of travel of the spreader. The outlets are configured to receive the material from a metering device and to dispense an amount of the material to mid-rows between crop rows on a field such that the plurality of outlets dispenses half the amount of material to an outermost mid-row compared to the amount of material dispensed to the other mid-rows. Also, the metering device may have two metering elements, which may be controlled to meter the material to only one side of the spreader. A centrally located outlet situated on a driving line of the spreader may receive material from both metering elements so that the centrally located nozzle can dispense the material whenever one or the other side of the spreader is not dispensing material.
