  • Publication number: 20240361202
    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods to detect pipeline leaks. The systems and method can identify a pipeline pressure surge by applying a trained convolutional neural network (CNN) model for classifying pipeline pressure measurement images on each sensor site of a plurality of sensor sites, transfer pressure surge information obtained from at least a portion of the plurality of sensor sites to a cloud site, and determine whether the identified pressure surge is a pipeline leak at the cloud site using the pressure surge information. The plurality of sensor sites collect pipeline pressure measurement data. The pressure surge information corresponds to the identified pipeline pressure surge.

  • Patent number: 12108489
    Abstract: A method and a system for determining a path of data traffic based on a destination Internet Protocol (IP) address, the destination IP address being either private or public and belonging to any one of multiple organizations. In the method and system, a subscribed device identifier and the destination IP address of one of the multiple organizations is received at a managed service platform. If both the subscribed device identifier and the destination IP address of the one of the multiple organizations are not registered in a predetermined policy database, a subscriber or an owner of the subscribed device is prompted, at a telecommunications endpoint associated with the subscribed device identifier, to register the endpoint. The subscribed device identifier is then registered in the predetermined policy database, based on information received from the telecommunications endpoint in response to the prompting.

  • Patent number: 11743724
    Abstract: A method and system for determining a path of data traffic based on a destination Internet Protocol (IP) address, the destination IP address being either private or public and belonging to any one of multiple organizations. In the method and system, a VPN is activated at a telecommunication endpoint. In response to activating the VPN, a service device on a private network interconnects with a VPN gateway. A subscriber identifier associated with the telecommunication endpoint and the destination IP address of one of the multiple organizations is received at a managed service platform. If both the subscriber identifier and the destination IP address of the one of the multiple organizations are not registered in a predetermined policy database at the telecommunication endpoint, a subscriber identified by the subscriber identifier is prompted to register the subscriber identifier associated with the telecommunication endpoint.

  • Publication number: 20150000354
    Abstract: A door stop includes a body having a longitudinal axis and a rotating toggle operably connected to the body. The toggle is rotatable such that a longitudinal axis of the toggle aligns with the longitudinal axis of the body in an insertion position and the longitudinal axis of the toggle is transverse to the longitudinal axis of the body in a locked position. The door stop includes a lock assembly operably mounted to the body to lock the toggle. Monitoring circuitry provides indication of a location of the door stop and/or an alarm mode.

  • Patent number: 8924931
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for determining dependencies in a mainframe development environment. While executing a first build file to generate a first build of a software program from files in a file system, the activity in the file system is monitored to determine a plurality of files that are being accessed, and first information about the plurality of files is recorded. The first information is sent to a configuration management server. From the configuration management server, second information is received that indicates one or more dependencies which are determined among the plurality of files based on the first information. Based at least on the second information, a second build file is generated. The second build file is executed to generate a second build of the software program, where the second build is generated more efficiently by using less computing resources than the first build of the software program.
