Publication number: 20210349654Abstract: Content is captured and archived at an archive center (AC) and, depending upon records management (RM) policy, is managed by the AC or under RM control by a content server (CS). Both the AC and CS may be part of an enterprise content management system. The AC provides a user-friendly interface through which retention zones may be defined, and functionality for applying RM policy. The functionality can be triggered via a specific content property or through a retention zone under RM control. The RM control can be turned on or off from within the AC using the user-friendly interface. Archived content is not moved or duplicated. Rather, metadata and a link to the storage location are sent to the CS which, in turn, creates a content server document that is linked to the archived content. Only a portion of archived content is exposed to the CS through the AC.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 20, 2021Publication date: November 11, 2021Inventors: Thomas Bruckner, Matthias Specht, Nicholas Carter

Publication number: 20210258299Abstract: A cloud computing environment receives a request from a client. The request relates to access of an application executing in the cloud computing environment and it encapsulates a certificate. This certificate is then translated into an authorization graph descriptor which, in turn, is used to traverse a certificate authorization graph to identify a match within a certificate repository. In response to the identification of the match, an access token is requested including the authorization graph descriptor. The access token is then encapsulated in the request which is then forwarded to an authentication service which provides access to the application if there is a match of the authorization graph descriptor against pre-defined authorization requirements. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 13, 2020Publication date: August 19, 2021Inventors: Thomas Bruckner, Christopher Schmitz

Patent number: 9214873Abstract: A method for operating an electrical power rectifier. The power rectifier comprises at least two branches that are connected in parallel to each other, each of the branches comprising at least two power semiconductor elements that are connected in series. The collector-emitter voltage Vce(t) and/or the collector current Ic(t) of one of the power semiconductor elements is detected by means of the method. Furthermore, it is determined whether at least one of the following conditions is met: dVce(t)/dt<(dVce/dt)crit, and/or dIc(t)/dt<(dIc/dt)crit, and or Ic(t_ent)<Iccrit. If at least one of the aforementioned conditions has been met, the gate-emitter voltage of at least one of the power semiconductor elements is increased.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2013Date of Patent: December 15, 2015Assignee: GE Energy Power Conversion GmbHInventors: Roland Jakob, Piotr Sadowski, Thomas Bruckner, Thomas Basler
