  • Patent number: 10380856
    Abstract: In a general aspect, detected motion is localized based on channel response characteristics. In some aspects, channel responses based on wireless signals transmitted through a space between wireless communication devices are obtained. A motion detection process is executed to detect motion of an object in the space based on the channel responses, and the channel responses are analyzed to identify a location of the detected motion within one of a plurality of regions within the space.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 1, 2018
    Date of Patent: August 13, 2019
    Assignee: Cognitive Systems Corp.
    Inventors: Stephen Arnold Devison, Mohammad Omer, Yunfeng Piao, Marco Nogueira

  • Patent number: 8818783
    Abstract: A method for representing state transitions within a state machine includes representing a set of allowed transitions between states as a transition pair wherein a first value of the transition pair indicates a set of nodes from which to transition and a second value of the pair indicates a set of nodes to which to transition. The nodes represent states within a state machine. The method further includes defining a role of an entity within the state machine by assigning a number of transition pairs to the entity, the value pairs defining how the entity can transition through the state machine.

  • Publication number: 20080046890
    Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for managing a dynamic cluster. Processor usage is monitored in the dynamic cluster, wherein applications execute on partitions in the dynamic cluster. In response to a determination that the processor usage exceeds a threshold level, applications are rebalanced within the dynamic cluster in a manner that reduces processor usage.
