Abstract: A system may monitor transaction data pertaining to a plurality of transaction types received by a network order fulfillment system. The system may classify the transaction data into a plurality of alarm types based on pre-defined impact of an alarm type to a given transaction type. The system may analyze a plurality of performance parameters influencing a performance of the network order fulfillment system, and identify a performance parameter exhibiting an anomaly based on historical data, a current status of the plurality of the performance parameters and a predefined prediction model. The system may ascertain whether the identified performance parameter negatively impacts the performance of the network order fulfillment system, based on evaluation rules. The system may proactively implement a remediation action to remediate a potential fault caused by the identified performance parameter when the identified performance parameter negatively impacts the performance of the network order fulfillment system.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods that efficiently and effectively identify experts relative to a key topic within an organization. For example, systems and methods described herein can receive an expert assistance query from a user looking for an expert associated with a particular topic. Systems and methods described herein can further apply a trained expert selection model to a key topic extracted from the received expert assistance query. In response to receiving an identified expert from the expert selection model, systems and methods can further identify and provide information associated with the identified expert such as the expert's contact information, the expert's team information, and other data (e.g., documents, emails, communications) authored by the expert in association with the key topic.

Abstract: A solution generation and planning system uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques such as machine learning (ML) data models, predictive analytics and natural language processing (NLP) techniques for generating outputs to aid decision making in the domain of public infrastructure development. The problem statement is analyzed using the NLP techniques to generate word tokens which are employed in identifying issues that aid in selection of appropriate data sources from a plurality of discrete data sources. In addition, data models trained to produce probable solutions for the issue are also selected. The probable solutions are presented to the user who selects one of the probable solutions for implementation. Feedback from the implementation is also incorporated so that the data models are updated per the latest information obtained from the implementation of the user-selected solution.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for preparing a cellulose dope comprising mixing and dissolving the cellulosic raw material in dilute and concentrated aqueous organic solvent in a two-stage process to form a homogeneous slurry, followed by heating the homogeneous slurry to obtain a cellulose dope containing 11% to 20% cellulose by weight. The invention also relates to a cellulose dope comprising 11% to 20% cellulose by weight and 73% to 79% aqueous organic solvent wherein the concentration of the cellulosic and metallic impurities in the cellulose dope shows a percent reduction of 20% to 50% from the cellulosic raw material.

Abstract: An impact wrench is provided with a battery to power the motor. The impact wrench provides improved portability since the impact wrench does not need to be connected to an electrical extension cord or a pneumatic hose. The output drive, motor, batteries and main handle may be aligned along the axial direction of the tool. The batteries may be located between the motor and the main handle.

Abstract: A device may receive, from a user device, a request for a set of forecasts of an extract transform load (ETL) completion time for a group of ETL jobs associated with an organization. The device may obtain a set of performance indicators associated with the group of ETL jobs. The device may filter the set of performance indicators using one or more filtering techniques. The device may generate the set of forecasts of the ETL completion time by using a data model to process the set of performance indicators and/or a set of assumptions associated with a set of recommendations for reducing the ETL completion time. The device may provide the set of forecasts of the ETL completion time to the user device. The device may perform one or more actions that cause the ETL system to execute the group of ETL jobs within a threshold completion time.

Abstract: Techniques for rules-based workflow messaging are described herein. In one or more implementations, user activity with different existing workflows for features of an application is tracked and communicated to a tracking service. Based on analysis of user activity, rules are derived regarding messages to show users with respect to new features that relate to user interaction. For example, activity data indicating heavy usage of a particular legacy workflow is used to recognize that users are not discovering/using a corresponding new feature. Based on such usage patterns, workflow messages and rules for exposing the messages for the new feature are created and distributed to clients. The rules are applied to detect workflow patterns and trigger messages regarding corresponding new features. In response to an indication of interest in a new feature, interactive instructions to guide users step-by-step through the workflow for a new feature are provided.

Abstract: A gear train is contained within the housing of an actuator, is coupled to a movable component outside the housing, and includes a first gear and a second gear. A bend shaft is fixed to an internal surface of the housing and supports the first and second gears. The bend shaft includes a lower portion, a crosspiece, and an upper portion. The lower portion has a first end coupled to the housing and a second end offset from the first end, and extends from the first end to the second end along a first direction. The crosspiece is oriented orthogonal to the first direction and extends from the second end of the lower portion. The upper portion has a third end coupled to the crosspiece and a fourth end offset from the third end, and extends from the third end to the fourth end along the first direction.

Abstract: An actuator is usable in a damping system, which may be a component of an airside system, waterside system, building management system, or HVAC system. The actuator is coupled to a damper and may open and close the damper. The damper selectively seals a duct to prevent spreading of gas, smoke, or fire within a building. The actuator includes a gear that rotates as the damper is opened and closed. A cluster pinion is coupled to the gear and rotates with the gear. A locker is rotatably coupled to a stopper and has a range of motion limited by the stopper. The stopper includes a rib extending outwardly and limiting the range of motion of the locker. The rib is configured to deform at a temperature exceeding a threshold. A spring is coupled to the locker and biasing the locker against the rib.

Abstract: A variety of assemblies are configured for use with an actuator. An adaptor includes protrusions configured to engage grooves in a channel wall of the actuator and a snapping structured configured to receive a snapping feature of an output gear. A spring clip rotatably secures a yoke having a yoke slot and an output gear having a circumferential slot in the output channel of the adaptor. A lock clip has an arm and a lock clip, the lock clip having an inner wall shaped to correspond to a polygonal opening that extends through the base ring of a yoke. An adaptor prevents a valve from being coupled to the actuator by a bracket in one or more incorrect orientations, and permits the valve to be coupled to the actuator by the bracket in the correct orientation.
