  • Publication number: 20230198747
    Abstract: A method and a DL node for processing a transaction in a distributed ledger (DL) network based on policies are described. A request for a transaction including data is received at a DL node from a user device. A first set of one or more DL nodes of the DL network that have characteristics that satisfy one or more policies associated with the data of the transaction are determined. In response to determining that the DL node is one of the set of DL nodes, the transaction is executed at the DL node, and the transaction is inserted as a private transaction in a digital ledger of the DL network causing a second set of one or more DL nodes of the DL network that is different from the first set of DL nodes to access only an identifier of the transaction and not a payload of the transaction.

  • Publication number: 20210388577
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling an autonomous vehicle in a worksite. The method comprises the steps of: receiving a predetermined trajectory of a work sequence of the autonomous vehicle, the predetermined trajectory including at least a set path and a set speed; adding a pre-defined variation to the predetermined trajectory to form a test trajectory, the variation including at least a variation in set path or set speed; comparing the energy usage over the test trajectory and the predetermined trajectory; determining whether or not the compared energy usage achieves a pre-set criteria; and setting the test trajectory as a new set trajectory of the autonomous vehicle in response to determining that the compared energy usage achieves the pre-set criteria.

  • Patent number: 11046334
    Abstract: An arrangement for a work site includes a radio transmitter arrangeable at the work site for transmitting signals receivable by a radio receiver arranged on a vehicle at the work site. The radio transmitter is arranged to define a work site zone of the work site by means of the coverage of the radio signals from the radio transmitter. A predetermined vehicle operation condition for the vehicle is different in the work site zone when receiving the radio signals compared to outside the work site zone when not receiving the radio signals.
