  • Patent number: 10884910
    Abstract: The technology disclosed enables the automatic definition of monitoring alerts for a web page across a plurality of variables such as server response time, server CPU load, network bandwidth utilization, response time from a measured client, network latency, server memory utilization, and the number of simultaneous sessions, amongst others. This is accomplished through the combination of load or resource loading and performance snapshots, where performance correlations allow for the alignment of operating variables. Performance data such as response time for the objects retrieved, number of hits per second, number of timeouts per sec, and errors per second can be recorded and reported. This allows for the automated ranking of tens of thousands of web pages, with an analysis of the web page assets that affect performance, and the automatic alignment of performance alerts by resource participation.

  • Patent number: 10621075
    Abstract: Computer networks include multiple hardware and software devices, each working together to provide a favorable user experience to an operator. Many of these devices are built to standards that have been published by international standards organizations. These standards include functional test criteria that, when executed successfully, assure functionality of the device within a group of devices. The technology disclosed maintains libraries of canned tests based on these published standards. In addition, the technology disclosed can collect, adapt, and execute sets of predefined transactions to a target test network. This will validate that the target test network can scale up to a desired combination of transactions of different types. This is accomplished by manipulating example transaction sets captured from probes or routers that save network accounting records from a model network.

  • Publication number: 20190201859
    Abstract: A method for capturing material extracted from biochar is provided comprising the steps of: (i) providing a biochar; (ii) contacting the biochar with an extraction media, where the extraction media causes the removal of residual compounds from the pores and surface of the biochar, creating a resulting extract comprised of the extraction media and removed compounds; and (iii) collecting the resulting extract. The method also can include other steps of extraction and purification. The method further comprises the step of applying the resulting extract to seeds, plants, soil, other agricultural products, or for use in other applications. A biochar having high levels of soluble signaling compounds is also provided, where the biochar is derived from a biomass source that together with predefined pyrolysis parameters produces resulting biochar having increased levels of soluble signaling compounds that are known to increase seed germination rates and early plant growth.
