Abstract: An asset monitoring system receives a first multi-dimensional representation of an asset associated with an industrial process. The asset monitoring system generates a second multi-dimensional representation of the asset from the first multi-dimensional representation. The second multi-dimensional representation may be a two-dimensional vector graphic representation of the asset and may be configurable via a graphical user interface. In generating the second multi-dimensional representation, the asset monitoring system maps at least one operational parameter associated with the asset to the second multi-dimensional representation. The asset may include one or more devices of the asset monitoring system. The asset monitoring system may display, via a dashboard at the graphical user interface, the second multi-dimensional representation and status information associated with the asset.

The technology generates a second output based on the synthesized sensors and the first input and detects whether one or more of a degradation and an anomalous state exists based on a comparison of the first output to the second output.

Abstract: The present specification relates to a transformed yeast strain capable of simultaneously utilizing xylose and glucose as carbon sources, a preparation method thereof and a biofuel production method using the same. The transformed yeast strain transforms a wild-type yeast strain incapable of using xylose as a carbon source and simultaneously convert glucose and xylose, thereby enabling high yield production of a biofuel. The economics and sustainability of the biofuel and biomaterial production processes can be highly enhanced by providing a strain which can easily be converted to a strain capable of producing a biofuel/material in a high yield through an additional modification.

Abstract: In various embodiments, an RFID Antenna/Tag Location Configuration device (RLC) may facilitate placement of one or more RFID antennas in a physical space. The RLC may collect RFID data from tags determine which of the RFID antennas need to be relocated. The RLC may determine, based on collected RFID data, whether each antenna is a dominant antenna and/or has a substantial read rate. If an antenna is not dominant and/or does not exhibit a substantial read-rate, the RLC ma indicate that the antenna should be relocated. The RLC may also be configured to filter collected RFID data prior to using the data for determination of antennas. The RLC may also determine, using the RFID antennas, a physical location of RFID tags in the physical space using detected signal strength for RFID tags. Additional embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
