Patent number: 10140626Abstract: A system and method for managing mainframe computer system billable usage includes determining gross mainframe computer system capacity usage for billable mainframe computer system workload, and identifying what of that workload is discount-qualifying mainframe computer system workload. Capacity usage specific to the discount-qualifying mainframe computer system workload is determined in order to determine a billable capacity usage specific to that workload, the determination being based on one or more applicable discount rates applicable thereto. A billable total mainframe computer system capacity usage for the billable mainframe computer system workload is then determined based on the billable capacity usage specific to the discount-qualifying mainframe computer system workload.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2015Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: CA, Inc.Inventors: Johannes Gerardus Jozef Peeters, Friedhelm Herbert Stoehler, Horst Walter Doehler

Patent number: 9672072Abstract: In mainframe computer system, workload tasks are accomplished using a logically partitioned data processing system, where the partitioned data processing system is divided into multiple logical partitions. In a system and method managing such a computer system, each running workload tasks that can be classified based on time criticality, and groups of logical partitions can be freely defined. Processing capacity limits for the logical partitions in a group of logical partitions based upon defined processing capacity thresholds and upon an iterative determination of how much capacity is needed for time critical workload tasks. Workload can be balanced between logical partitions within a group, to prevent surplus processing capacity being used to run not time critical workload on one logical partition when another logical partition running only time critical workload tasks faces processing deficit.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2015Date of Patent: June 6, 2017Assignee: zIT CONSULTING GMBHInventors: Johannes Gerardus Jozef Peeters, Friedhelm Herbert Stoehler, Horst Walter Doehler

Patent number: 9088011Abstract: A bipolar plate which can be produced particularly economically for a fuel cell, with which a high degree of efficiency is guaranteed over a long service life. The bipolar plate has a core layer consisting of a steel material, the surfaces of said core layer, which are associated with the respective electrolyte carriers of the fuel cell, having a corrosion protection layer, protecting the core layer against corrosion. The corrosion protection layers consist of a metal material and extend on both sides over the whole surface of the core layer. At the same time the corrosion protection layers are in turn coated over the whole surface with an electrically conductive functional coating, which is essentially entirely impermeable for the metal ions emerging from the core layer and/or the corrosion protection layers. The invention likewise relates to at least one fuel cell comprising a bipolar plate according to the invention.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2008Date of Patent: July 21, 2015Assignee: ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe AGInventors: Stefan Wischmann, Horst Walter Tamler, Roland Wunderlich, Michael Steinhorst, Krasimir Nikolov, Nicole Weiher, Jens-Ulrik Becker, Stefan Peter Puls, Bernd Schuhmacher

Patent number: 8491063Abstract: The invention relates to a wheel rim for a motor vehicle which can be economically manufactured, with a wheel disc made of steel sheet and a rim flap running around the circumference of the wheel disc. Due to the fact that the steel sheet of the wheel disc is formed from at least three superimposed steel layers, joined to one another by roll-bonding in a non-detachable manner, of which the inner core layer has a lower strength than the outer layers, it is thereby guaranteed that the wheel rim according to the invention, with a low weight, can safely accommodate the forces arising in practical operation.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2009Date of Patent: July 23, 2013Assignee: ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe AGInventors: Günter Stich, Horst Walter Tamler, Jens-Ulrik Becker, Thomas Heller, Roland Wunderlich
