  • Patent number: 12086052
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for generating compliance indicators on a user interface corresponding to maturity levels of a continuous integration/continuous deployment system. A server captures compliance data corresponding to development status associated with a software application comprising newly-added source code. The server determines whether a plurality of maturity levels of a continuous integration system are completed for the software application based upon the captured compliance data. The server generates a plurality of compliance indicators, each of the compliance indicators corresponding to one of the maturity levels that is completed. The server generates for display the generated compliance indicators on a user interface of a user device communicatively coupled to the server.

  • Patent number: 10148817
    Abstract: A virtual queuing system includes a server connected to a call center. The call center includes an automatic call distributor and a firewall. The server maintains virtual queues. User interfaces enqueu a call by a user of the call center to the virtual queues via the server. An application programming interface interfaces the user interfaces to the server. A virtual queuing connector module connects the automatic call distributor of the call center to the application programming interface across the firewall of the call center via requests or pulls initiated by the virtual queuing connector module. The virtual queuing connector module and the automatic call distributor are operated inside the firewall. The server, the application programming interface, and the user interfaces are operated outside the firewall. When a call is up, the call is connected as a prioritized call, assigned to a reserved IVR channel, and put through first.

  • Publication number: 20130268282
    Abstract: A system and method for implementing and using a calendar-based schedule therapy media system. Such a system may be implemented using a web based collection of applications and software modules related to therapy and media for Traumatic Brain Injured (TBI) and similar symptom patients so as to enhance the recovery process and to assist health care providers and families in cooperatively managing treatment programs. This set of computer-based applications is designed to assist and enhance patient recovery through an exercise management tool to manage the recovery treatment program. Further, an application, executable on any computing device provides an all-in-one mobile resource to assist in fulfilling treatment regimens, and managing exercises with more independence. To further enhance the ability of a patient to self-direct various aspects of a session, the calendar based events may include network links to media items for assisting the patient by viewing or listening to video.

  • Patent number: 5748666
    Abstract: A method and a d.c. arc furnace for thermal treatment of an ash, wherein reducing conditions are established within a closed and sealed furnace, the ash is supplied via a channel arranged in an electrode which extends towards a metal melt in a furnace shell and provides an arc extending toward the metal melt, the ash being fed from the open free end of the electrode through the arc, any slag and/or the metal melt, whereby the ash is rapidly heated under reducing conditions to a temperature of 1350.degree. C. to 1750.degree. C.

  • Patent number: 4625434
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement in cylinder drying, intended for incorporation in a paper machine and including a plurality of heated cylinders (1) arranged substantially parallel in two rows, about which the paper web (2) is taken serpentine during drying, whereat it is carried by an endless porous fourdrinier wire (3) which presses the web against the cylinder surfaces in one row of cylinders and lies between the paper web and the cylinders in the other row. For preventing the web from lifting from the wire as a result of pressure differences on either side thereof, there are blowing boxes (11,12) arranged for blowing out air in at least some of the pockets (4,5) situated on opposite sides of the web, each of said pockets being formed by the web and three cylinders lying consecutively in the travelling direction of the web.

  • Patent number: 4505053
    Abstract: The invention relates to a plant for drying a material web. Such plant includes a plurality of upper (3) and lower blow boxes arranged substantially mutually parallel and at right angles to the travelling direction of the web. The lower boxes are intended to support the web and are provided in their surfaces facing towards the web with orifices for blowing air in directions substantially parallel to the plane of the web. The air ejection velocity is thereby sufficient to maintain the web in a specified floating position above said boxes. The upper blow boxes (3) are situated on the other side of the material web and have orifices for blowing air substantially perpendicularly to the plane of the web. According to the invention, the distance (H) between the blowing orifices of the upper blow boxes and the web is variable. It is furthermore adjustable so that the relative energy requirement for the upper blow boxes may be brought closely into the region of the value 1.

  • Patent number: 4477983
    Abstract: A cylinder dryer usually includes a plurality of heated cylinders (4) about which a web-like material (1) is taken in a zig-zag mode and pressed against certain of the heated cylinder surfaces by means of an endless high-permeability wire (3), whereby cylinder pockets are formed between the cylinders (4), web (1) and wire (3), when the latter relinquishes contact with the web at a cylinder surface (6) to pass over a return roll (7) arranged between the cylinders, and once again makes contact with the web at the next following cylinder circumference (8). According to the invention these cylinder pockets are ventilated by a flow of drying air from a blowing box (9) being blown over the width of the wire against its surface facing away from the cylinder, in a direction forming an acute angle to and having a directing component substantially counter to the direction of travel of the wire. Blowing is carried out thereby within an area (6) where the wire relinquishes contact with the web.

  • Patent number: 4212113
    Abstract: Web-drying apparatus having a plane of lower blow boxes underlying the path of travel of the web to blow dry air against the undersurface of the web to support the same in closely-spaced relation to the blow box. Upper blow boxes are disposed on the upper side of the web closely adjacent the plane of travel of the web. The upper blow boxes are disposed in pairs extending diagonally across the full width of the web and terminating at opposite ends in fan chambers which are located in spaced locations along the sides of the path of travel of the web. The blow boxes in each pair diverge from the fan chamber, one extending forwardly and one extending rearwardly in the direction of the web travel to provide an angular space therebetween which provides free access to the web path and also to enable exhaust spent drying medium therethrough. The opposite ends of the blow boxes are closed in alternation.

  • Patent number: 4069595
    Abstract: A treatment plant for web material which, when bent, exhibits stiffness transverse to the direction of bending. The treatment plant comprises a series of blow boxes arranged in sections with the boxes in each section having parallel plane perforated surfaces on opposite sides of the web path. The perforations are graduated in degree with a high degree of perforation on one side of the web path being opposed by a low degree of perforation on the other side of the web path, and vice versa, so that the web assumes a wave shape between the first and second planes, the wave staying with its nodes in definite positions closer to the one plane opposite the highly perforated group in the second plane and closer to the second plane opposite the highly perforated group in the one plane.
