Abstract: Some embodiments provide a user-friendly interface enabling a non-technical user to automatically provision a robotic process automation (RPA) environment on a target computing system such as a cloud computing platform or an on-premises server. The provisioned environment may include all necessary components (e.g., virtual machines, robots, robot orchestrator, databases, network links) to execute a robotic task. The provisioned environment is terminated automatically after or at a time specified by the user. The described systems and methods are particularly useful at trade shows or other events, in order to simplify and speed up the demonstration of RPA software capabilities to different customers planning RPA software deployment in different contexts, including on different cloud platforms or hybrid contexts combining cloud with on-premises host platforms.

Abstract: A fan shroud structure 10 is constructed and arranged to carry a fan. The fan shroud structure includes a body 12 having a periphery, a main surface, and an annular rim 26 defining a generally central opening 28. The opening 28 is sized to accommodate blades of a fan. Fan mounting structure 30 is coupled with the body and is disposed generally adjacent to the central opening. The fan mounting structure is constructed and arranged to support a motor of a fan. The body includes a plurality of surfaces features 34 constructed and arranged to affect resonance of the shroud structure with each feature having a surface 36 that is discontinuous with respect to the main surface 38 of the body. Each feature 34 also extends from the annular rim to the periphery of the body.
