Abstract: An automated system measures a plurality of parameters representing conditions of a linear asset while traversing the asset, thereby generating a plurality of data channels representing measurements of the plurality of parameters along the asset. The linear asset may be traversed a plurality of times to obtain additional data within the data channels. For each data channel, measurements obtained from multiple traversals are aligned with each other. Measurements in the data channels are aligned with locations along the linear asset. The resulting aligned data channels may be used to identify locations along the linear asset requiring replacement and/or repair.

Abstract: A computer system generates output representing one or more conditions of a linear asset, such as visual output representing both the linear asset and the conditions of the linear asset. The visual output representing the conditions may be displayed adjacent to the linear asset at positions corresponding to the locations of those conditions in the linear asset. The visual output may be generated and displayed in a compact manner, such as by displaying the visual output representing some linearly-overlapping conditions in different rows than each other, in order to stack that visual output over each other (e.g., vertically), while grouping some visual output representing linearly-overlapping conditions together within the same row as each other, and while displaying visual output representing non-linearly-overlapping conditions as separate (e.g., noncontiguous) visual output within the same row as each other.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a message that identifies an asset being viewed on a video service at a timestamp. The message is associated with a profile identifier and a plurality of messages are received for the profile identifier while using the video service. The method determines a channel identifier for a channel in which the asset is offered during the timestamp and determines whether a channel change occurred based on the channel identifier and a prior channel identifier determined from a prior message in the plurality of messages. When the channel change has occurred, the method stores the channel identifier and timestamp for the profile identifier in a data structure, wherein a list of channels is generated by querying the data structure to determine a set of channel identifiers and timestamps for the profile identifier.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for estimating disease-spreading based on facility and behavioral parameters. One method includes an operation for causing presentation of a user interface (UI) for entering facility parameters. The method further includes an operation for calculating the number of infections at the facility for a predetermined time period. The calculation includes setting values for simulation parameters based on the facility parameters, modeling a contact network for people at the facility, and performing a plurality of simulations to determine the number of infections, the plurality of simulations based on the contact network and the facility simulation parameters. Further, the method includes an operation for causing presentation of the number of infections in the UI.

In one embodiment, the method may include designating pillars associated with an enterprise business application. Each pillar may include application units which comprise logical groupings for application units used in the enterprise business application. The method may further include determining which of the application units are dependent to more than one of the pillars. Furthermore, based on the determination of the dependent application units, the method may generate deployment code associated with the dependent application units which is configured to be deployment model independent. The method may then receive, at deployment time, a deployment model designation indicating a type of deployment model selected to be used for the enterprise business application. Then, the enterprise business application may be deployed according to the deployment model designation.
