  • Patent number: 9014046
    Abstract: Media, systems, and methods for ensuring adequate data-processing capacity in a communications network are provided. An embodiment of the method includes identifying a communications resource to evaluate, determine a maximum capacity that the resource is capable of handling, projecting a capacity-exhaustion timeline, wherein the timeline includes time estimations that are adjusted by an adjusting factor that is based at least in part on an accuracy of prior projection estimates. Determining a more accurate capacity exhaustion timeline allows for more accurate comparison against a time required to add such capacity. Recommends to effect capacity additions can be provided.

  • Patent number: 6102978
    Abstract: A filter element which includes an annular filter media is surrounded by an external wrap in the form of preformed metal coil instead of a standard metal sleeve. The preformed metal coil has end portions in the form of circular hoops which are retained by adhesive, which adhesive is used to both seal the ends of the filter media and to retain end caps in place on the filter media. The preformed metal coil is of specific use with filter elements that are cleaned by back pulsing in industrial facilities, but is used in any situation where standard metal external sleeves are now used for filter elements.
