Abstract: A packet forwarding network may include spine and leaf switches that forward network traffic between end hosts. The packet forwarding network may be implemented on multiple network racks in a rack-based system. A controller may control the underlying spine and leaf switches to form on-premise virtual private cloud (VPC) resources. In particular, the controller may form enterprise VPC (EVPC) tenants, each having a virtual router that performs routing between different segments within the corresponding EVPC tenant. The different segments may separately include web, application, and database servers, as end hosts. The controller may form a system VPC tenant having a virtual system router that performs routing between different EVPC tenants. A segment in an internal VPC tenant formed by the controller and/or an external VPC tenant formed by the controller may provide external network access for one or more of the EVPC tenants.

Abstract: A system and a method is disclosed for monitoring tension and detecting slip of industrial belts (e.g. V, flat, and Timing belts) while in running condition on belt drives by using ultrasonic transducers. The sensing part involves two ultrasonic transducers which are installed on an assembly which is placed within a constrained space between the tension side and slack side of belt. Acoustic waves having predefined amplitude are sent from transmitting transducer on the belt and amplitude of the signal reflected from the belt is measured and compared with a threshold value to detect reduced tension. Additionally, acoustic plugs are mounted on driver and driven pulley locknuts to blank the reflected signal periodically. The time period of the blanking of signals from the pulleys is computed and it measures the rotational speed (revolutions per minute: rpm) of the pulleys. This rpm is used to calculate the rotational speeds of the pulleys.
