  • Blanks, Constructs, And Associated Methods For Induction Heating Of Food Products
    Publication number: 20220017285
    Abstract: A construct includes at least one panel for supporting a food product, the at least one panel formed from a laminate structure having a base layer, a conductive layer, and a surface film. The construct further includes at least one spacing feature extending downwardly from the at least one panel for supporting the at least one panel a distance above an induction source for attenuating heat transferred to the food product in response to an oscillating magnetic field interacting with the conductive layer of the laminate structure.

  • Infrastructure aware adaptive resource allocation
    Patent number: 11057387
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for infrastructure aware adaptive resource allocation. A resource manager can receive a request to allocate a first container instance in a network. The resource manager can determine a set of candidate computing nodes in the network that are capable of hosting the first container instance and request, from an infrastructure monitor that received infrastructure data from the network, health metrics for the set of candidate computing nodes. The resource manager can select, based on the health metrics for the set of candidate computing nodes, an optimal computing node to host the first container instance, and allocate the first container instance on the optimal computing node.
    Type: Grant
