  • Picture hanging devices and methods thereof
    Patent number: 10194760
    Abstract: A picture hanging device includes a longitudinal member having a longitudinal track extending along at least a portion of a length of the longitudinal member and at least one level located within the longitudinal member. At least two alignment members are moveable along the longitudinal track, each of the at least two alignment members having a securing device configured to detachably secure the alignment members in place at a location along the longitudinal track. The at least two alignment members each have a hollow internal portion configured to receive a punch device. A method of making a picture hanging device is also disclosed.
    Type: Grant

  • Service assurance using network measurement triggers
    Patent number: 9032068
    Abstract: A method performed in a network element for reacting to communication performance measurements that fall outside of communication performance thresholds. The network element generates a communication performance measurement between a first endpoint and a second endpoint, wherein each endpoint is a point of communication in the network and at least the first endpoint resides on the network element. The network element retrieves a communication performance threshold and determines whether the communication performance measurement falls outside of the communication performance threshold. The network element generates a trigger associated with the communication performance measurement and the communication performance threshold when it is determined that the communication performance measurement falls outside of the communication performance threshold.
