  • Patent number: 10545730
    Abstract: Code for an application programming interface (API) can be automatically generated. For example, a processing device can receive a definition data describing functional and behavioral characteristics of the API in an API description language. The processing device can also receive a template data defining code logic for the API. The template data can include (i) template code in a template language, and (ii) program code in a programming language that is different from the template language and the API description language. The processing device can generate source code in the programming language using the template data and the definition data by performing operations in accordance with the template code. The operations can include at least replacing template variables with corresponding values from the definition file. The processing device can then compile the source code into an executable file, and execute the executable file to implement the API.

  • Patent number: 9374332
    Abstract: A method and system for the efficient creation and management of an e-mail distribution list. The method includes receiving, from a first sender, a first e-mail message directed to an e-mail address comprising a list name. An e-mail distribution list is created comprising a distribution list name, wherein the distribution list name is the list name of the e-mail address. The first sender is added as a first subscriber to the distribution list. A second e-mail communication directed to the e-mail address is received and the second sender is added as a second subscriber to the e-mail distribution list in view of the second e-mail communication.

  • Publication number: 20080027922
    Abstract: A method of providing an automated support notification is described. The method comprises receiving a support request identifying a problem and querying a data store for a solution related to the support request. The method further comprises generating a solution request if the querying a data store for a solution fails to identify a solution and receiving at least a reference to a solution. The method further comprises transmitting at least the received reference to the solution based on at least one support request identified by querying the data store for a support request related to at least a portion of the solution.

  • Publication number: 20070225111
    Abstract: A coupling system for connecting a sun gear to a shaft within a planetary gear train, includes a sun gear coupling connecting the sun gear to the shaft. The sun gear coupling has at least one undulant flexible section joined to an inflexible spindle for accommodating misalignment between the sun gear and the shaft. The flexible section comprises a cylindrical ring having a diameter greater than the diameter of the spindle, and joined to the spindle by two longitudinally spaced apart diaphragms. The juncture between the diaphragms, the ring, and the spindle is curved in cross section on an outer side to improve flexibility and minimize stress concentrations, and the inner sides of the diaphragms are straight edges which result in a non-symmetric contour of the diaphragm walls.

  • Publication number: 20060223664
    Abstract: A planetary carrier includes a journal bearing for supporting a planetary gear. The journal bearing receives lubricant to produce a lubricant film to support gear loads. A torque frame is attached to the carrier housing to transmit torque and to prevent twisting of the carrier housing. The torque frame includes several lubricant communication passages to provide lubricant to each of the separate journal bearings. Each of the lubricant communication passages includes an accumulator for storing lubricant during normal operation. The accumulator stores a desired amount of lubricant to provide lubricant to the adjacent journal bearing for the interim period between primary system stoppage and reestablishment of lubricant flow by a secondary system.
