  • Patent number: 11392873
    Abstract: An order entry and order management network is disclosed. Event log data associated with a completed real order and relevant to a scenario is accessed by a computing device. A template is built for the scenario using the event log data. The template is modified as needed based upon predetermined specifications of the scenario. A simulated order is generated by applying the event log data to the template. A simulated workflow is initiated based upon the simulated order. The simulated workflow is a virtualized workflow monitored by the computing device to test the scenario. The computing device monitors network traffic associated with orders. The computing device communicates aspects of the event log data to systems of the order entry and order management network when the computing device identifies network traffic associated with the simulated order in order to process the simulated workflow and test the scenario.

  • Patent number: 9669537
    Abstract: An adjustable tool extender comprising an elongated body, where the elongated body is divided between a handle and an extendable drive; an engaging end at a far end of the extendable drive, where the engaging end fits into a tool bit; a receiving end at a far end of the handle, where the receiving end receives a drive on a tool; and a means for locking along the handle, where the means for locking extends the extendable drive a distance from the handle.

  • Publication number: 20090089070
    Abstract: A system includes an address validation and resolution module operable to determine a location corresponding to a civic address; a location key generator operable to generate a location key adapted to index a set of location-based services identifiers; and an available services determination module operable to use the location key to index the set of location-based services identifiers to determine location-based services available at the civic address. An embodiment of a computer-implemented method includes receiving address data identifying a civic address associated with a, determining a location corresponding to the identified civic address based on the address data; and determining whether one or more services are available at the identified civic address based on the determined location.
