Abstract: Described are techniques for a re-analysis of assignments of terms to assets. The techniques include detecting a change in a term ontology comprising a plurality of terms, and determining at least one selected from a group consisting of: a domain feature change vector (DFCV) for a domain of the term ontology affected by the change, and a term feature change vector (TFCV) for the term affected by the change. The techniques further include identifying assets for the re-analysis of the assignments of terms, wherein each of the identified assets is associated with an impact score value based on the DFCV and/or the TFCV, and performing the re-analysis of the assignments of terms for the identified assets ordered by the impact score value.

Abstract: A system may receive a data glossary comprising a list of terms. The system may then measure a usage dimension for a set of the terms from the list of terms. The system may select a candidate term from the set based on the usage dimension and perform a maintenance action on the candidate terms.

Abstract: In order to separate tin can bodies carried by a first conveyor belt at a high speed, a second conveyor belt is taken close to the first conveyor belt and individual bodies are transferred from the first conveyor belt to the second conveyor belt. It is thus possible to separate a sequence of tin bodies into two sequences, thus facilitating further processing. The process can also be reversed to form a single sequence from two sequences.

Abstract: Sheet metal edges to be welded are preheated prior to welding. At a given welding speed, this results in a smaller temperature gradient in the material to be welded. Consequently the welding speed can be increased, or material which would otherwise provide poor weld quality can be welded at a high temperature gradient. The preheating is carried out for example by high-frequency excitation of the material to be welded.

Abstract: The measurement of the voltage over the welding point in order to supervise the welding quality takes place by means of voltage taps on the wire electrodes. As a result, the additional parasitic resistances during measurement by means of conventional voltage taps on the roller head or the roller head mounting are completely eliminated, which improves the measuring accuracy.
