  • Patent number: 11889950
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a cooking system for cooking food, the system including a housing defining a hollow chamber configured to receive a food container. The housing has an upper portion defining an opening to the hollow chamber. A food container having a hollow container interior is positionable within the hollow chamber. An end of the food container extends above the upper portion of the housing when the container is installed within the hollow chamber. A lid is moveably attached to the housing and is moveable between a first position that covers the upper portion of the housing and the opening to the hollow chamber when the food container is installed within the hollow chamber and a second position where the lid does not cover the opening to the hollow chamber. At least one heating element is associated with at least one of said lid and said housing.

  • Patent number: 11803531
    Abstract: Intelligence production suffers from inadequate collaboration, poor information sharing, and lack of visibility into a complex production process, resulting in intelligence reports that are not aligned to the user's needs. This exacerbates decision-making problems by preventing critical data from reaching the appropriate staff, which prevents commanders from achieving their desired mission requirements due to incomplete or inadequate information. Using Object-Based Production, Adaptive Process Management, and Entity Management technologies, a new wiki-like capability was created that provides a wiki's ease of use and understanding while addressing weaknesses such as lack of multi-level security, no enforcement of publishing standards, and lack of product currency, providing an intelligence production solution addressing the above needs.

  • Publication number: 20230289500
    Abstract: Automatically generating a hardware image based on programming model types includes determining by a design tool, types of programming models used in specifications of blocks of a circuit design, in response to a user control input to generate a hardware image to configure a programmable integrated circuit (IC). The design tool can generate a model-type compiler script for each of the types of programming models. Each compiler script initiates compilation of blocks having specifications based on one of the types of programming model into an accelerator representation. The design tool can generate a build script configured to execute the compiler scripts and link the accelerator representations into linked accelerator representations. Execution of the build script builds a hardware image from the linked accelerator representations for configuring the programmable IC to implement a circuit according to the circuit design.

  • Patent number: 11612951
    Abstract: A system and method for wirelessly controlling, monitoring, and updating various welding parameters from a remote device using a single remote control. The remote does not need to have the software to communicate with the welding-type system prior to initiating communications with the welding-type system. Rather, the welding-type system can provide a code download to the remote to perform an over-the-air programming of the remote to configure the remote to control the welding-type system.
