Abstract: The disclosed subject matter describes herein methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable media for configuring service networks. According to one aspect, the method includes collecting parameters defining a network service. In another aspect, the method includes generating a plurality of flow interfaces for modeling the network service based on the collected parameters, wherein each of the flow interfaces is associated with a logical device. In another aspect, the method includes generating at least one packet virtual network (PVN) including at least a portion of the plurality of generated flow interfaces. In another aspect, the method includes visually outputting, in a service network user interface, a graphical representation of the network service based on interface connectivities between the plurality of generated flow interfaces.

Abstract: An oil control module for a gas turbine engine is provided comprising a housing on which numerous components of a lubricating system are mounted. The components may include a variable oil reduction valve/shuttle valve, a main oil pressure sensor, a main oil temperature sensor, a main oil filter delta pressure sensor, an oil debris monitor, a lube filter, an active oil damper valve, a cool oil orifice, a knock down orifice and a lube trim orifice. By packing numerous lubricating system components onto or within a housing located adjacent to the gas turbine engine, the oil control module reduces cost and weight and simplifies the maintenance of the lubricating system.

Abstract: According to one aspect, the disclosed subject matter describes herein a method that includes establishing a plurality of flow interfaces associated with an enterprise service in response to receiving an order request for the enterprise service and sending, for each of the plurality of flow interfaces, flow interface information that specifies parameters associated with the flow interface to a network routing element designated to transport the enterprise service. The method further includes configuring the flow interface on a media interface of the network routing element as specified by the parameters included in the flow interface information and implementing the enterprise service via the configured flow interface.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for modeling packet technology services using a packet virtual network (PVN) are provided. In some aspects, and at a computing platform, a method includes providing a plurality of flow interface objects. Each flow interface object can be associated with a physical device. The method further includes configuring the flow interface objects into a PVN, wherein the flow interface objects represent network devices or device sub-interfaces. The method further includes displaying the PVN for visually modeling an Ethernet and/or a non-Ethernet packet technology service. An exemplary system includes a computing platform having at least one processor and a memory, the computing platform being configured to access a plurality of flow interface objects stored in the memory and a PVN)-modeling module (PVN-MM) for grouping the flow interface objects into a PVN for modeling a service.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for purifying and heating air using photocatalytic oxidation. The apparatus includes a housing, a heater, and a photocatalytic oxidation unit disposed within the housing. The housing defines a flow path for air to move through the apparatus such that air from the environment is drawn into the apparatus and passes over the photocatalytic oxidation unit. A pollutant in the air from the environment adsorbs to a surface of the photocatalytic material coating the plates, and the surface of the photocatalytic material is exposed to ultraviolet light generated by the ultraviolet light source. The energy of the ultraviolet light activates the photocatalytic material, which then breaks down the pollutant leaving non-toxic components and purified air. The air then passes over the heater and back into the environment. A fan is also included to move air through the flow path.

Abstract: A radio communications network is provided in a neighborhood of local units, and has a gateway at each local unit and a neighborhood network manager communicating data with each gateway over an upper layer of the network. Each local unit has equipment that communicates data with the gateway thereof over a lower layer of the network. Each gateway includes a radio and operates the radio according to a protocol that defines a plurality of radio channels. The gateway employs a first one of the plurality of radio channels as an upper layer channel to communicate data in the upper layer of the network, and also employs a second one of the plurality of radio channels different from the first one as a lower layer channel to communicate data in the lower layer of the network.
