Publication number: 20240111450Abstract: A computer-implemented method for effectively delivering notifications in data storage environments includes, receiving, by a storage controller from a host system, a request to register the host system with the storage controller to receive notifications. These notifications may be associated with a selected type of event detected by the storage controller. In certain embodiments, the selected type of event is a space-related condition associated with a particular storage resource controlled by the storage controller. The computer-implemented method registers the host system with the storage controller. In response to detecting an event of the selected type on the storage controller, the computer-implemented method transmits a notification from the storage controller to the host system to provide notice of the event. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 1, 2022Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Beth Ann Peterson, Matthew Richard Craig, John G. Thompson, John R. Paveza, Nicolas Marc Clayton, Terry O'Connor, David Michael Shackelford

Patent number: 11866587Abstract: An organic slurry for use in wood-based composites is described herein. In one aspect, the organic slurry may include water, a lignin material insoluble in the water, such as dewatered kraft lignin, and a defoamer. During manufacturing, the water, lignin material and defoamer may be combined and mixed together in a vessel to produce the organic slurry. In one aspect, the defoamer may include a water-based defoamer, a silicone-based defoamer, a silicone-free defoamer, an oil-based defoamer, a polymer-based defoamer, or mixtures thereof. The organic slurry may have a pH less than neutral.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2022Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: The Williamette Valley Company LLCInventors: Jesse L. Paris, Matthew G. Peterson, James A. Livings, Sudip Chowdhuruy, Curtis G. Burton

Publication number: 20230416530Abstract: A wax-extender emulsion including a plurality of wax-extender complex particles suspended in water is described. A wax-extender complex includes a wax component, an organic extender component and a surfactant that stabilizes the wax component and the organic extender component collectively to form the wax-extender complex. The wax-extender emulsion comprises from 2 wt % to 30 wt % organic extender. During manufacturing, the organic extender and wax component are emulsified and homogenized together to produce the wax-extender emulsion. The wax-extender emulsion can be co-applied as a mixture with adhesive resin during wood-based composite manufacturing.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Applicant: The Williamette Valley Company LLCInventors: Jesse L. Paris, Matthew G. Peterson, James A. Livings, Sudip Chowdhury, Curtis G. Burton

Patent number: 10837811Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that include tools that utilize Dynamic Detector Tuning (DDT) software that identifies near-optimal parameter settings for each sensor using a neuro-dynamic programming (reinforcement learning) paradigm. DDT adapts parameter values to the current state of the environment by leveraging cooperation within a neighborhood of sensors. The key metric that guides the dynamic tuning is consistency of each sensor with its nearest neighbors: parameters are automatically adjusted on a per station basis to be more or less sensitive to produce consistent agreement of detections in its neighborhood. The DDT algorithm adapts in near real-time to changing conditions in an attempt to automatically self-tune a signal detector to identify (detect) only signals from events of interest. The disclosed systems and methods reduce the number of missed legitimate detections and the number of false detections, resulting in improved event detection.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2017Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLCInventors: Timothy J.
