Abstract: The present invention is a system and method for forecasting automation timing behavior based on historical automation logs and business rules. The system includes a computer processor having a non-transitory memory containing program code for executing playback of an automation log, identifying a timing related failure in the automation log, extracting automation time-action mapping from the automation log, executing one or more scripts, comparing a baseline playback time from the automation log to an actual playback time from executing the scripts, and calculating a wait time based on differences between the actual playback time and the baseline playback time. The system generates time flexible scripts and a baseline or pattern to control the pace of automation scripts, which can be applied to other solutions. Therefore, the system distills patterns and generates predictive analysis and recommendations for other solutions and domains.

Abstract: A method and associated systems for a self-healing automated script-testing tool. The tool monitors unattended operation of a script that automates user interaction with a graphical user interface (GUI) of an application. If the tool detects an error produced by the script, the tool, using its specialized repositories of information about the script, the GUI, and the application, determines that the error is caused by an addition of a mandatory widget to, or a deletion of a mandatory widget from, the GUI. The tool uses information in the repositories to revise the script and, if the error is caused by a widget addition, to select test data that may be used to test the script's interaction with the new widget. The script and the repositories are then revised and the revised script is automatically retested. This procedure continues until the script runs successfully without error.

Abstract: A radiant convection oven for baking a coating on an article which includes an oven enclosure receiving coating articles, a fan receiving fresh air and directing the fresh air to a burner or burners, a plurality of heat radiators each having an internal chamber receiving heated fresh air from the burner. The radiators are located within the oven opposite a coating article, radiating heat energy to the coated article, and a plurality of nozzles connected to the internal chamber of the radiators directing fresh heated onto the article, transferring convection heat energy to the coated article. In the disclosed embodiment, the radiators include radiating side and bottom walls having a relatively shallow depth, increasing the flow rate through the radiators, reducing the size and cost of the radiators and the fan.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a memory and a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the memory contains instructions that when executed by the processor cause the apparatus to receive a migration request from a virtual machine (VM) proxy running on a first server hosting a VM, wherein the migration request comprises a VM identifier associated with the VM comprising a globally unique VM name and a current VM address associated with the first server, and wherein data packets associated with the VM are routed to the VM based upon the VM identifier and instruct a VM proxy running on a second server to receive the VM from the first server in response to the migration request, wherein the second server receives the VM, and wherein the VM name remains unchanged while the current VM address becomes associated with the second server after the second server receives the VM.

Abstract: A garment hanger that is configured to stack with other hangers and/or move between collapsed and extended configurations. The hanger may include an edge defining a recessed area upon one side of the hanger and a corresponding raised area upon the opposite side of the hanger. Multiple hangers may be stacked with one another by engaging the recessed area of a first hanger with the raised area of a second hanger stacked with the first hanger. The hanger may also include one or more extending portions or arms that pivot or otherwise move between the extended configuration for the hanging of garments thereon and a collapsed configuration for shipment or storage. The one or more extending portions or arms may lock or engage with another portion of the hanger when in the extended configuration or collapsed configuration in order to help the hanger remain in such configuration until otherwise desired.

Measured source volumes of a source solution are placed into the mixing vessels. First measured volumes of a liquid are added to the mixing vessels. Measured first waste volumes are dispensed from the mixing vessels. Second measured volumes of the liquid are added to the mixing vessels. Measured second waste volumes are dispensed from the mixing vessels. Third measured volumes of the liquid are added to the mixing vessels. Each vessel has an individual target dilution ratio. Measured volumes and number of dilution operations are individual to each of the mixing vessels.

Abstract: Data values are exhibited based on sector-ring angles. The data values to be exhibited are first received by a processing device. The sector-ring angles are then determined for the data values to be exhibited. Using the sector-ring angles for the data values to be exhibited, the data values are exhibited in a sector-ring manner.

Abstract: Improved production of entangled photon pairs (biphotons) via spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) is provided. In one aspect, forward-wave SPDC is performed in a monolithic resonator (resonant for both signal and idler) having a double pass pump geometry to provide a spectrally bright source of biphotons. In another aspect, backward-wave SPDC is performed in a resonator (resonant for both signal and idler) to provide a spectrally bright source of biphotons. For either of these approaches, the biphotons can be made to have polarization entanglement by using quasi phasematching (QPM) with two QPM periods simultaneously.

Each shading tab covers one opening and forms an airflow passage communicating the opening with an outside environment atmosphere.

Abstract: A two-dimensional (2D) magneto-optical trap (MOT) for alkali neutral atoms establishes a zero magnetic field along the longitudinal symmetry axis. Two of three pairs of trapping laser beams do not follow the symmetry axes of the quadruple magnetic field and are aligned with a large non-zero degree angles to the longitudinal axis. In a dark-line 2D MOT configuration, there are two orthogonal repumping beams. In each repumping beam, an opaque line is imaged to the longitudinal axis, and the overlap of these two line images creates a dark line volume in the longitudinal axis where there is no repumping light. The zero magnetic field along the longitudinal axis allows the cold atoms maintain a long ground-state coherence time without switching off the MOT magnetic field, which makes it possible to operate the MOT at a high repetition rate and a high duty cycle.
