Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for a wireless power transmission apparatus that supports charging of one or more wireless power receiving apparatuses. The wireless power transmission apparatus may include multiple primary coils organized in groups (referred to as zones). Each zone may have a local controller for managing operation of one primary coil in the zone at a time. A master controller may selectively couple the primary coils to the local controllers. When a first primary coil is coupled to the local controller for a zone, the other primary coils in that zone may be disabled. The master controller may manage which primary coils from neighboring zones are coupled to their respective local controllers. Thus, when the first primary coil is activated, the adjacent primary coils (near the first primary coil) can be muted or disabled to mitigate undesirable interference.

Abstract: An automated system and method of converting legacy decision logic to a target format. The legacy files are received by the decision logic translation system, which outputs the business rule content in a standard rule structure, according to the selected target format. The process involves decision logic-based rule extraction. In general, methods or processes for extracting business rules have been difficult to reproduce and do not present clearly the extracted rules regarding the concepts of business rules, their composition and categorization. These drawbacks lead to incomplete extraction of rules and massive manual effort to achieve a complete extraction and verification. In contrast, the proposed system overcomes these drawbacks, and outputs files that can be easily used to migrate the business rules to a new platform.
