Abstract: In some cases, a method may include receiving electricity usage data from a re-ordering device and determining usage information for an appliance that is electrically connected to the re-ordering device based on the electricity usage data. The method may also include determining, based on the usage information and order history information for a customer, an estimated remaining quantity of an item that is associated with an appliance type of the appliance. The method further includes comparing the estimated remaining quantity of the item to a threshold associated with the item. In response to determining that the threshold associated with the item is satisfied, the method includes decrementing the estimated remaining quantity of the item. In response to determining that the threshold associated with the item is not satisfied, the method includes generating order data for automated re-ordering of the item for delivery to the customer.

Abstract: A package manager used with a containerization platform can organize code portions into immutable layers. Collections of layers can be organized and saved together as an executable unit. Disclosed solutions recognize that because layers do not change, they can be reused by the same user and can also serve as shared building blocks for multiple environments running simultaneously. To facilitate sharing layers, a system can analyze which ones are common to multiple environments and allow multiple simultaneous environments to share common layers. Layer compression and dominator algorithms can be used to address inherent layer constraints. To facilitate use of existing layers for efficient start-up, code packages can be organized into base layers and additional layers, and commonly-used layers can be cached. New or unique environment requests can combine previously-cached base layers and additional layers to avoid redundant calculations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to herbicidal substituted phenyl-pyridazine-diones and substituted phenyl-pyridazinone derivatives of formula (I), as well as to processes and intermediates used for the preparation of such derivatives. The invention further extends to herbicidal compositions comprising such derivatives, as well as to the use of such compounds and compositions in controlling undesirable plant growth: in particular the use in controlling weeds, such as broad-leaved dicotyledonous weeds, in crops of useful plants.

Abstract: Improved techniques for disaster recover within storage area networks are disclosed. Embodiments include replicating a LIF of a primary cluster on a secondary cluster. LIF configuration information is extracted from the primary cluster. A peer node from a secondary cluster is located. One or more ports are located on the located peer node that match a connectivity of the LIF from the primary cluster. One or more ports are identified based upon one or more filtering criteria to generate a candidate port list. A port from the candidate port list is selected based at least upon a load of the port. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Computing systems methods, and non-transitory storage media are provided for retrieving information regarding an operation to be performed by a platform, performing a preliminary validation of the operation, generating details regarding the preliminary validation, transmitting at least a subset of the details of the preliminary validation to the platform, and populating the generated details on an interface. If the preliminary validation fails, the platform refrains from performing the operation. Furthermore, the logic describing the operation can be executed on different platforms and is not bound or limited to one platform.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to multiple aperture devices (MADs) for beam shaping in x-ray imaging. Two or more of these binary filters can be placed in an x-ray beam in series to permit a large number of x-ray fluence profiles. However, the relationship between particular MAD designs and the achievable fluence patterns is complex. The present invention includes mathematical and physical models that are used within an optimization framework to find optimal MAD designs. Specifically, given a set of target fluence patterns, the present invention finds, for example, a dual MAD design that is a “best fit” in generating the desired fluence patterns. This process provides a solution for both the design of MAD filters as well as the control actuation that is required (relative motion between MADs) that needs to be specified as part of the operation of a MAD-based fluence field modulation system.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an operation device, a communication device, and a control device. The operation device receives an instruction according to an operation performed by a user. The communication device performs data communication with a plurality of image forming apparatuses. The control device acts as a calculator and a controller. The calculator calculates an evaluation value for each of one or more evaluation items designated by the user through the operation device and calculates a sum of the calculated evaluation values, as use priority, with respect to each of the plurality of image forming apparatuses. The controller transmits a print job, execution of which has been instructed by the user through the operation device, to the image forming apparatus that has gained highest user priority, via the communication device.
