Patent number: 11604789Abstract: A system is described that receives a query model of a query that includes one or more query commands. The query model includes a command model that corresponds to at least query command of the one or more query commands. The system uses the command model to generate an interactive action model summary and causes a user interface to display the query and the interactive action model summary in a query actions panel. A modification to the query in the user interface causes an update to the query actions panel and a modification to the action model summary causes an update to the at least one query command of the query.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2021Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: Splunk Inc.Inventors: Finlay Cannon, Jindrich Dinga, Thomas Haggie, Clark E.

Publication number: 20230039236Abstract: Exemplary embodiments described in this disclosure generally pertain to systems and methods to handle packages transported in a delivery vehicle. In an example embodiment, a computer that is provided in a vehicle receives a command related to delivery of a package. The command may be associated, for example, with rerouting of the vehicle due to various reasons such as, for example, due to a change in a delivery schedule and/or a delivery priority. The computer may respond to the command by operating an unmanned package moving apparatus to move the package from one location in a cargo area of the vehicle to another location in the cargo area while the vehicle is in motion and prior to the vehicle reaching a delivery destination for the package. In an example implementation, the unmanned package moving apparatus includes a bed of rollers that are operated by servomotors under control of the computer.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2021Publication date: February 9, 2023Applicant: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Young-Chae Hong, Shan Chy Chueh, John Randolph Vincent, Steven Stark

Publication number: 20220291875Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to hosting virtual memory backed kernel isolated containers. A server includes at least one physical processor and at least one physical computer memory addressable via physical memory addresses. The at least one physical computer memory stores executable code configured to provide at least one host including a kernel and at least one kernel isolated container within the at least one host. The host allocates virtual memory having virtual memory addresses to a respective container of the at least one kernel isolated container. The host pins a subset of the virtual memory addresses to a subset of the physical memory addresses. The host performs a direct memory access operation or device memory-mapped input-output operation of the respective container on the subset of the physical memory addresses. At least part of the physical computer memory that is not pinned is oversubscribed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2020Publication date: September 15, 2022Inventors: Gerardo DIAZ-CUELLAR, Omar CARDONA, Jacob Kappeler OSHINS, John STARKS, Craig Daniel WILHITE

Patent number: 11439143Abstract: A temperature sensor for monitoring an organ or tissue is configured to measure a temperature inside of a container configured to contain the organ or tissue. The temperature sensor is disposed exterior to the organ container and the temperature sensor is a non-contact temperature sensor. The temperature sensor may be part of an apparatus for perfusing, transporting, and/or storing an organ or tissue. A coolant container may have an aperture through which the temperature sensor measures a temperature of at least one of the organ or tissue or a perfusate fluid surrounding the organ or tissue. The temperature sensor is preferably an infrared temperature sensor. Multiple temperature sensors may be provided that measure the temperature organ or tissue or perfusate fluid surrounding the organ or tissue, for example in case one of the temperature sensors fails.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2012Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: LIFELINE SCIENTIFIC, INC.Inventors: David Kravitz, Christopher P. Steinman, David Pettinato, Richard K. Buck, John Stark, Robert J. Allen

Publication number: 20220224726Abstract: Distribution and management of services in virtual environments is described herein. In one or more implementations, a service distribution and management model is implemented in which system services and applications are seamlessly distributed across multiple containers which each implement a different runtime environment. In one or more implementations, a system for distributing access to services in a host operating system of a computing device includes a host operating system configured to implement a host runtime environment, and one or more services implemented by the host operating system. The system further includes a service control manager configured to enable communication between a client stub of a service implemented in a client runtime environment and a service provider of the service that is implemented in a service runtime environment that is separate from the first client runtime environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2022Publication date: July 14, 2022Inventors: Hari R. Pulapaka, Margarit Simeonov Chenchev, Benjamin M. Schultz, Jonathan David Wiswall, Frederick Justus Smith, John A. Starks, Richard O. Wolcott, Michael Bishop Ebersol

Publication number: 20210382739Abstract: A fine-grain selectable partially privileged container virtual computing environment provides a vehicle by which processes that are directed to modifying specific aspects of a host computing environment can be delivered to, and executed upon, the host computing environment while simultaneously maintaining the advantageous and desirable protections and isolations between the remaining aspects of the host computing environment and the partially privileged container computing environment. Such partial privilege is provided based upon directly or indirectly delineated actions that are allowed to be undertaken on the host computing environment by processes executing within the partially privileged container virtual computing environment and actions which are not allowed.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 4, 2020Publication date: December 9, 2021Inventors: Amber Tianqi GUO, Frederick J.
