  • Patent number: 7945401
    Abstract: Multiple autonomous intelligent Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) are positioned on distribution lines in an electrical power grid. The intelligent RTUs perform analytics on power flowing through the distribution lines to provide real-time analysis of the power. The intelligent RTUs acquire sensor data from the distribution lines and locally perform the analytics on the sensor data to create processed data signals that are transmitted to a control center server to facilitate power distribution monitoring of the electrical power grid.

  • Patent number: 6539501
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system, method, and program for generating trace statements to a log file. A log method in a program, such as a Java program, including an identifier parameter is processed. The program includes multiple instances of the log method to trace the execution of the program during debugging operations. A determination is made as to whether a variable indicates that log methods called with the identifier parameter should be processed. The class and method from which the log method was called is determined if the variable indicates that log methods called with the identifier parameter should be processed. Information on the identifier parameter and determined class and method are written to the log file.
