Publication number: 20250342447Abstract: A device may trigger a resolvable object that requires a resolution responsive to an event detected in a managed information technology environment and obtain a masked title from a title of the resolvable object by applying text processing rules to the title to obtain the masked title that includes at least one variable part that replaces a portion of the title. A device may obtain, using the masked title, a title template for the resolvable object using a machine learning model by traversing a fixed depth parse tree organized based on numbers of token positions in a masked title. A device may obtain, using the title template, a type for the resolvable object and responsive to determining that the resolvable object is of the frequent type and not of the rare type or of the novel type: identifying and automatically executing a runbook of tasks associated with the title template.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2025Publication date: November 6, 2025Inventors: Nigel Antony Knott, Vijay Shankar Venkataraman, Laura Ann Zuchlewski

Publication number: 20230106027Abstract: An incident that requires a resolution responsive to an event detected in a managed information technology environment is triggered. A masked title is obtained from a title of the incident. Using the masked title, a title template is obtained for the incident. Using the title template, an incident type is obtained for the incident, where the incident type is selected from a set that includes a rare type, a novel type, and a frequent type. Responsive to determining that the incident is of the rare type or the novel type, an output of the incident is prioritized so as to focus an attention of a responder on the incident; and, responsive to determining that the incident is of the frequent type, a runbook of tasks associated with the title template is automatically executed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2021Publication date: April 6, 2023Inventors: Nigel Antony Knott, Vijay Shankar Venkataraman, Laura Ann Zuchlewski

Patent number: 8894830Abstract: A low-voltage, low-energy electrochemical system and method of removing protons and/or producing a base solution comprising hydroxide and carbonate/bicarbonate ions, utilizing carbon dioxide in a cathode compartment that is partitioned into a first cathode electrolyte compartment and a second cathode electrolyte compartment such that liquid flow between the cathode electrolyte compartments is possible, but wherein gaseous communication between the cathode electrolyte compartments is restricted. Carbon dioxide gas in one cathode electrolyte compartment is utilized with the cathode electrolyte in both compartments to produce the base solution with less that 3V applied across the electrodes.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2012Date of Patent: November 25, 2014Assignee: Celera CorporationInventors: Ryan J. Gilliam, Thomas A. Albrecht, Nikhil Jalani, Nigel Antony Knott, Valentin Decker, Michael Kostowskyj, Bryan Boggs, Alexander Gorer, Kasra Farsad
