  • Patent number: 12705562
    Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The method computer program products, and systems can include, for instance: processing one or more text based document defining a maturity model, wherein the maturity model defines a plurality of domains, and for at least one domain of the second plurality of domains, capabilities are associated to respective different maturity levels of the at least one domain, wherein the processing the one or more text based document includes applying natural language processing to extract from the one or more text based document a parameter value dataset.

  • Patent number: 12689217
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system to control an exporting and importing of reactive power by nodes of a network. One node of the network (capable of exporting Q units of reactive power to the network) and N nodes of the network (each capable of importing reactive power from the network) are identified. Initially, Q>0 or Q<0. The N nodes are sorted in ascending order of relative distance between the one node and each of the N nodes. A loop over the sorted N nodes is performed. A next iteration of the loop includes: sending a first and second electromagnetic signal to the first node and a next node, directing the first node and the next node to export an amount Q? of reactive power and to import an amount of reactive power, respectively; and updating Q via Q=Q?Q?.

  • Publication number: 20060174667
    Abstract: A security device includes at least two pins and at least two locks. Each lock is adapted to releasably receive one pin. At least one of the at least two pins and the at least two locks are attached together. The device has a release position wherein the pins are not in the locks and a locked position where the pins are secured in the locks. In another aspect of the invention there is provided a detacher for use with two locks.
