Abstract: A method includes: accessing a part model comprising a three-dimensional representation of a part; accessing a material profile relating exposure energy and three-dimensional polymerization geometry of a material selected for the part; segmenting the part model into a set of model layers; detecting a first upward-facing surface in the part model; defining a first model volume in a first model layer, adjacent the first upward-facing surface, and fully contained within the part model; based on the material profile, calculating a first exposure energy predicted to yield a first three-dimensional polymerization geometry approximating a first contour of the first upward-facing surface when projected onto the material during a build; populating a first print image with the first exposure energy in a first image area corresponding to the first model volume in the first model layer; and storing the first print image in a print file for the part.

Abstract: Systems for managing user collaboration over objects stored on a cloud-based service platform. A server in a cloud-based platform maintains a set of read/write metadata that is associated in one-to-one correspondence to stored objects that are accessible by two or more collaborators. The server does not maintain a list of peers that communicate over peer-to-peer connections, rather the server exposes a semaphore for access to the metadata that pertains to a particular one of the stored objects. The server responds to download requests from the collaborators so as to deliver executable signaling protocol computer code to the collaborators' user devices. The signaling protocol code includes semaphore access by the collaborators' user devices using an application programming interface. Two or more accesses over the same semaphore establishes a leader and at least one follower. Corresponding ephemeral peer-to-peer connections are established between the leader and the at least one follower.

Abstract: A machine monitoring method preferably includes receiving packets, such as packets supplied to a physical machine, virtually simulating physical machine operation, and analyzing the virtual outputs of the virtual simulation. Virtually simulating physical machine operation is preferably performed based on the received packets, such as using a digital duplicate of the physical machine. Analyzing the virtual outputs can include, for example, determining simulated states of one or more aspects, such as physical components, of the physical machine, and/or determining that one or more events associated with physical machine operation have occurred. The method can optionally include, for example, transmitting the analysis results to a remote device, determining the digital duplicate of the physical machine, determining an analysis model for the virtual outputs of the digital duplicate, determining digital component modules, and/or determining digital analysis modules.

Abstract: An original UI configuration is formed by a combination of a first user interface structural component portion, a first user interface style code portion, and a first behavioral code portion. When a variation of the first UI feature or a new feature is to be implemented, a second UI configuration is deployed, where the second UI configuration is formed by a second user interface structural component portion, a second user interface style code portion, and a second behavioral code portion. The second UI configuration implements a variation of the first UI feature. Embodiments deploy a third UI configuration formed by the second user interface structural component portion, a third user interface style code portion, and the second behavioral code portion. The third UI configuration emulates the original UI configuration using the second behavioral code portion. The third configuration or the second configuration can be enabled based on a software switch.

Abstract: Various example embodiments are directed to methods and apparatuses for diverting current from a Photovoltaic (PV) module. In particular embodiments, the PV module can be part of a series connection (or string) of PV modules. The series connection provides a primary current path through which generated current flows. Current diversion circuit(s) can be used in connection with one or more PV modules. The current diversion circuit detects when the current through the primary current path is less than the desired current level for a corresponding PV module (e.g., the maximum power point). In response to this detection, the current diversion circuit can provide an alternate pathway for current from the corresponding PV module. This results in an overall increase in the current from the PV module and a corresponding increase in efficiency.
