  • Patent number: 11946478
    Abstract: There is provided a fan assembly comprising a motor-driven impeller arranged to generate an airflow, an air outlet arranged to emit the airflow, a plurality of sensors arranged to measure a value for each of a plurality of air quality characteristics, a display and a processor. The processor is configured to receive measured values for each of the plurality of air quality characteristics, identify one of a corresponding set of intervals within which the measured value falls and select an air quality index value associated with the identified interval. The processor is then configured to identify the highest of the selected air quality index values as a current overall air quality index value and to cause the display to display a time series plot of the current air quality index value and a number of preceding air quality index values.

  • Patent number: 8953613
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for providing dynamic Quality of Service (QoS) for connections to applications over a network are provided. The method receives a message associated with the application, wherein the message includes information identifying the connection to the application and information about the application. The method then determines, based on a set of rules defined for the application, a QoS level to apply to the connection, and applies the determined QoS level to the connection. The QoS applied to the connection corresponds to the application and not the QoS associated with a personal or home account QoS that would otherwise be applied to the connection.

  • Patent number: 7852849
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for providing dynamic Quality of Service (QoS) for connections to virtual private networks (VPNs) are provided. The method receives a message from an organization associated with the VPN, wherein the message includes information identifying the VPN connection and information associated with the organization. The method then determines, based on a set of rules defined for the organization, a QoS level to apply to the connection, and applies the determined QoS level to the connection. The QoS applied to the connection corresponds to the organization hosting the VPN and not the QoS associated with a personal or home account QoS that would otherwise be applied to the connection.
