  • Patent number: 11972382
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to monitoring an information technology (IT) environment having a plurality of domains through key performance indicator (KPI) data. In response to detection of a technical health problem, a first KPI related to the problem is identified. A root cause analysis is performed on the identified KPI generating a knowledge graph. A second KPI related to the first KPI is identified through the discovery of a correlation between the two identified KPIs. A diagnosis is generated for the technical health problem within the IT environment based on the discovered hidden correlation between the first KPI and second KPI. The generated diagnosis includes the root cause of the technical health issue.

  • Publication number: 20230325397
    Abstract: Techniques regarding providing artificial intelligence problem descriptions are provided. For example, one or more embodiments described herein can comprise a system, which can comprise a memory that can store computer executable components. The system can also comprise a processor, operably coupled to the memory, and that can execute the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can include, at least: a query component that generates key performance indicators from a query, determines a subset of key performance indicators that individually have a performance below a threshold, and maps the subset of key performance indicators to operational metrics; a learning component that generates, using artificial intelligence, problem descriptions from one or more of the subset of key performance indicators or the operational metrics and transmits the problem descriptions to a database.

  • Patent number: 11093885
    Abstract: Providing enterprise recommendations includes determining a change of a maturity score of an enterprise architecture assessment domain model associated with an enterprise architecture. The change of the maturity score is indicative of a change of a maturity state of the enterprise architecture assessment domain model. One or more maturity model types that exceed a predetermined degree of change are determined, and at least one assessment capability group for each maturity model type is determined. One or more assessment capabilities are selected for each assessment capability group based on one or more selection criteria. One or more recommendation templates are selected for each selected assessment capability based upon one or more template selection rules. A first set of recommendations are compiled based on the selected recommendation templates, and the first set of recommendations are output.

  • Patent number: 8272638
    Abstract: A device for transporting flat objects, such as mail items, has two transport tracks and an acceleration device arranged between the transport tracks. The acceleration device includes a clamping pair for holding the objects in a clamped manner on their opposing flat sides while the objects are moving. To be able to carefully accelerate objects of different thicknesses, it is proposed that at least one clamp of the clamping pair includes a segment unit with several segments of different configuration for clamping objects of different thicknesses.

  • Patent number: 8020863
    Abstract: A method and a device transport a flat object, especially a mail item, over a conveyor path. The transport device has two conveyor elements, a thickness sensor and a gap-altering device. With the aid of the thickness sensor the thickness of the object is measured, before the object reaches the conveyor path. With the aid of the gap-altering device the gap between the two conveyor elements is set to a computed value. The effect of this setting is that after the setting the gap is smaller than the measured thickness and the difference between the measured thickness and the gap is smaller than a predetermined limit. This setting is concluded before the subject matter reaches the conveyor path. The two conveyor elements clamp the object for a time between themselves and transport the clamped object over the conveyor path.

  • Patent number: 7993089
    Abstract: A system for extracting mail items in a mail processing system includes at least one pocket for containing at least one mail item and an extraction device. The pocket has a bottom area and two lateral walls, wherein each lateral wall has at least one opening. The pocket further includes a release mechanism at the bottom area configured to place the bottom area in an open state and a closed state. The extraction device is configured to engage the lateral walls of the pocket so that contact elements of the extraction device extend through the lateral walls and urge the at least one mail item away from inner surfaces of the lateral walls. The extraction device is further configured to cause the at least one mail item to pass through the bottom area when in the open state.

  • Publication number: 20080223769
    Abstract: In a method of singulating pockets in a mail processing system to extract mail items from the pockets, a first guide is provided within an extraction are. A second guide carrying a predetermined number of pockets is coupled to the first guide, wherein the pockets are arranged in series on the second guide, and wherein each pocket contains at least one mail item between two lateral walls. The first guide and the second guide are moved at a predetermined constant velocity. At least one pocket located on the second guide closest to the first guide is transferred from the second guide to the first guide. Within the extraction area, an extraction device is engaged with the pocket transferred to the first guide to extract the at least one mail item from that pocket.
