Abstract: Systems and methods for managing a fleet of vehicles are provided. In one example embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes obtaining data representing vehicle state information associated with one or more vehicles among a fleet of vehicles at one or more times. The method includes predicting a future vehicle state associated with the one or more vehicles at one or more future times. The method includes scheduling a vehicle assignment in a predetermined set of vehicle assignments for a selected vehicle among the one or more vehicles before a first future time among the one or more future times. The method includes transmitting a command signal to a computing system associated with the selected vehicle based at least in part on the scheduled vehicle assignment.

Abstract: A printing machine (10) including a registration station (45) for applying a skew adjustment received from a human operator is disclosed. The registration station (45) includes independently controllable motors (52a, 52b) that drive corresponding urging rollers (56a, 56b) as controlled by control circuitry (24), for example in response to the position of a media sheet as sensed by sensors (58a, 58b; 60a, 60b) at the registration station (45). The machine operator can enter a skew adjustment value at a user interface (25a), or at a networked computer workstation with which the printing machine (10) communicates via a network interface (25b). The control circuitry (24) calculates differential control signals for controlling the motors (52a, 52b) to effect the skew correction. The differential control signals may be differential timing delays, such as prior to deactivation of the motors (52a, 52b), or may be a differential velocity signal for driving the motors (52a, 52b).

Abstract: Methods and systems for generating an electronic proof set of a digital print job and delaying the completion of the print job until the proof set is approved are presented. The invention further includes generation of an electronic proof set that is transmitted for approval via email.
