  • Patent number: 11972239
    Abstract: A monitoring system monitors processing of incoming messages by an application, and logs data related to performance of the application. The application includes a plurality of checkpoints, and the monitoring system logs data upon each message traversing the checkpoints in the application. The monitoring system is configured to dynamically modify checkpoints within the application based on latency detection of portions of the application, resulting in improved granularity/resolution of the data collected from congested portions of the application, and reducing the performance penalty of the monitoring system from portions of the application that are not congested.

  • Publication number: 20240065458
    Abstract: A storage system is configured for adjustable suspension from fixed points on a vertical wall, such as from fixed tie-down loops that are rigidly and permanently affixed to the wall of a shipping container. The system includes a plurality of pivotable arms that may have attached thereto shelves or other planar panels and may be variably positioned to provide vertical storage panels, flat work surfaces (such as a desk surface), or upwardly angled support posts, for example, for hanging items such as cables, ropes, pipe sections, and the like. A suspension assembly for the storage system enables hanging suspension of the system at any desired location along the length of the vertical wall, despite the location of the fixed loops from which the system is ultimately suspended.

  • Patent number: 9189741
    Abstract: A system for automated contract management includes a computing device (102) and a memory storing program instructions that when executed by computing device (102). The program instructions cause the computing device (102) to generate an ontology (115) of terms and cross-contractual relationships in contracts (105, 110) and machine interpretable terms (120) and cross-contractual relationships (125) derived from the contracts (105, 110) with reference to the ontology (115). A method for automated contract management is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20120324561
    Abstract: Road Block simply put is a blockade against any and all hacker attempts. It is a security software program that resides on a server and the user machine with specific coding interchanging between the two for a secure link and transference of information. Unlike VPN technology Road Block establishes a Binary code link specific to computer chips residing on a server and also on the user computer. This technology can be used by banks, medical offices, insurance companies, credit unions and facilities allowing employees to work remotely. In a nutshell Road Block is the ultimate security software package to ensure safe and secure transmission of any information between a user and server.

  • Publication number: 20120035942
    Abstract: A third-party service relationship may be established between a service consumer, a service provider, and a third-party service using a service relationship management server. The service consumer and service provider can have a primary service relationship. The primary service relationship may be managed using the service relationship management server. Service relationship information related to the primary service relationship can be received in a database in communication with the service relationship management server. The primary service relationship can be modified using the third-party service and based on the service relationship information.

  • Patent number: 6877939
    Abstract: Frames and attachments thereto and methods of use thereof for the support and/or releasable securing of cargo and/or cargo containers upon and/or to cargo containers and/or cargo container transports and/or lifting devices. Linking frame (10) may be used upon and/or beneath containers that possess insufficient mutually corresponding mounting-points to otherwise enable them to be vertically stacked and secured together. Parallel longitudinal beams (11) are joined by shorter lateral beams (12). Attached directly or indirectly, protruding outward the outer side surfaces of said framework, are connectors (13) able to correspond upwardly and/or downwardly with various mounting-point layouts as provided upon the surfaces of cargo transport equipment.

  • Patent number: 5280753
    Abstract: A dual mode table which is convertible to serve as a coffee table and as a dining table comprises a fixed structure supporting a table top through a pair of table top extension means. The extension means comprise facing swingable frames which are pivotally pinned to the base and engage the table top for example through a pin and slot connection for movement of the table top between lowered and raised positions. In the lowered position the table top is substantially at the level of the base structure while in the raised position the extension means are locked and stabilized by appropriate means.

  • Patent number: 4751880
    Abstract: A label imprinting machine has a feed hopper, a stacking hopper, an imprinting station, and a printing head at the imprinting station. Unimprinted labels are transported from the feed hopper to the imprinting station and imprinted labels from then to the stacking hopper. The machine further has a cartridge inking system including a holder for holding an ink cartridge, a pick up ring holding roll, an ink pick up ring on the pick up ring holding roll, an ink distribution roll in driving engagement with the pick up ring holding roll, and a power driven ink transfer roll engaging the printing head and frictionally engaging the ink distribution roll, to regulate the rotational speed of the ink distribution roll and the pick up ring holding roll. The ink distribution roll oscillates back and forth along its axis as it rotates about its axis.
