  • Patent number: 12061660
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for recovering a hyperlink. In one embodiment, the method comprises obtaining an invoked hyperlink from a user. The hyperlink is received by the user to highlight a content. A browser is used to invoke the hyperlink so as to collect associated metadata and other information required to retrieve and open the originating application at any time. This associated metadata and other information is then stored and obtained at a later time by invoking the browser. In addition, responsive to the user searching for the hyperlink, the content can then be opened by the browser using the stored associated metadata and other information.

  • Patent number: 11783840
    Abstract: A computer-implemented system, method, and computer program product are described that predicts a time in which a participant of a group of participants may speak in a group meeting. The prediction is based in part on latency between each participant in the group of participants and learned voice patterns of each respective participant. Once a prediction is determined, a cue to speak or remain silent is provided as one of a visual or aural cue to the participant to speak during the group meeting. Predicting a time in which the participant of a group of participants may speak includes training a lingual processing model iteratively for each respective participant to learn voice patterns of participants.

  • Patent number: 11738854
    Abstract: An aircraft with wing tip devices, for example, folding wing tips, is disclosed. The folding wing tip may have a flight configuration for use during flight, and a ground configuration for use in ground-based operations. The ground configuration creates a shorter wing span than when the aircraft is in the flight configuration. A hinge arrangement protrudes beyond an outer surface of the fixed wing and wing tip device. In order to reduce the aerodynamic effect of the protruding hinge a fairing may be provided. In the flight configuration the fairing comprises a rear portion with a concave surface, such that the fairing acts as a lift-generating surface when the aircraft is in flight.

  • Patent number: 11698285
    Abstract: A method can include obtaining a first weight measurement of a receptacle and obtaining a second weight measurement of the receptacle. The method can further include calculating a first difference between the first weight measurement and the second weight measurement, resulting in a reference dispensation value. The method can further include obtaining dispensation data, the dispensation data including a measured dispensation value. The measured dispensation value can correspond to a quantity of a substance dispensed from the receptacle, the quantity of the substance passing through a dispensation monitor coupled to the receptacle. The method can further include calculating a second difference between the reference dispensation value and the measured dispensation value. The method can further include determining that the second difference exceeds a threshold and adjusting the dispensation monitor in response to determining that the second difference exceeds the threshold.
