  • Patent number: 12158867
    Abstract: Some embodiments include a system and method of providing a historian that receives operational state data from a device of an industrial process of a network, where the operational state data is stored as time-series data, and processing at least one data query from at least one user coupled to the network. Based at least in part on the at least one data query and at least one dynamic cycle, at least some of the time-series data is retrieved, where the dynamic cycle is based on at least one tag associated with the time-series data. Further, based at least in part on at least some of the time-series data, at least one graphical representation of one or more tags is displayed, where each tag of the one or more tags represents an attribute of at least one process associated with the at least one device.

  • Patent number: 11671427
    Abstract: A server system can include an internal computer network including at least one client server configured to establish a data transfer connection to an external computer network, and at least one proxy server system positioned between the internal computer network and the external computer network. The proxy server system can include a proxy server positioned between a first firewall and a second firewall, where the first firewall is positioned between the first proxy server and the internal computer network, and the second firewall is positioned between the proxy server and the external computer network. The server system can develop and maintain a proxy server system that includes a whitelist of sites deemed necessary and/or desirable for system operation. The whitelist can be updated as a user works with and uses the system. Such updates can take place continuously in real or near-real time or periodically as frequently as desired.

  • Publication number: 20220164328
    Abstract: Some embodiments include computer-implemented method and system operating the method including a first step of receiving input data from an operational historian during a time interval, where the input data is derived from at least a portion of the operational state data. If the time interval has exceeded a specified time interval, then resetting base data values, and outputting stored input data to a computer-readable storage medium of the network. If the time interval has not exceeded a specified time interval, then comparing the input data with base values, and if any of the input data exceeds at least one of the base values, then updating the base values and proceeding to the first step. Further, if any of the input data does not exceed at least one of the base values, then discarding the input data and proceeding to the first step of the method.

  • Publication number: 20080078759
    Abstract: The combination of insulating material with microwave interactive food packaging for enhanced cooking properties is disclosed. An insulating microwave packaging material (200) and a method of making the same are also disclosed. In one embodiment, the insulating microwave packaging material (200) is formed by bonding a microwave interactive material substrate (205) that creates sensible heat upon exposure to microwave energy to a second substrate (210) along bond lines (212) arranged in a pattern to form closed cells (214). Upon impingement of the insulating microwave packaging material (200) by microwave energy in a microwave oven, the closed cells (214) expand to form insulating pockets (216). One side of the insulating pocket (216) bulges and lofts above the opposite side. When a food product is situated on the insulating microwave packaging material (200), the insulating pockets (216) insulate the food product from the microwave oven environment.
