Abstract: A system 1 for transporting goods within a storage and order processing facility, comprising a plurality of tile units 2, configured so as to in use form a substantially continuous grid on the floor of the facility; a plurality of substantially flat skid plates 5 configured to locate on top of the grid, each skid plate 5 configured so that a pay load can be placed on the upper surface of a skid plate 5 for transport; the tile units 2 containing drive means 6, 7, 8 configured to move the skid plates 5 on top of the grid; a control system configured to adjust the drive means 6, 7, 8 to alter the position of the skid plates 5 on the grid.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating account permissions for an account on a computing system are provided. In some embodiments, application programming interface (API) interactions involving an external application and the computing system are used to generate a corresponding set of account permissions for the account. API permissions for the external application may also or instead be used to generate the set of account permissions for the account. The set of account permissions may enable the account to access the same resources on the computing system as the external application, which may avoid granting the account overly broad access to the computing system.
