Abstract: A vibration protection and condition monitoring system with true digital signal processing based design, with very limited analog based general signal conditioning and integrated specific sensor conditioning and sensor power supply options. In addition to the support for common Eddy Current Probe Systems (employing an external Driver), the device also supports direct connection of the Eddy Current Probe to the module, due to an built-in driver and linearization functionality. The system is a distributed system where the vibration protection and at least a part of the condition monitoring is in an intrinsically safe (IS) distributed unit located on or at the rotating machinery, even in hazardous areas.

Abstract: A novel approach for generating and updating rules allows non-technical users to create and modify rules. A rules generation system includes a rules engineer interface, user interfaces and a rules generator. The rules engineer interface is an interface through which a rules engineer, such as rules engineer, may generate templates. Templates contain data that define rule “templates” that in turn specify a rule structure, rule elements that may be chosen by a user, and rule elements that may not be chosen by user. Templates may also define a set of choices, for example values, that user may choose for those rule elements. Templates may also be used to generate user interfaces. The user interfaces guide a user to create or edit rules.

Abstract: An approach is described for developing software that executes rules, such as business rules. A group of rule templates defines a rule structure for rules that may be executed by a rules engine. Separate ruleflow templates define tasks that entail the execution of rules. Each of the ruleflow templates associates a task with the group of rule templates. Because the ruleflow templates define the association between the tasks and the group of rule templates, during execution of the tasks a rules engine executes rules defined by the group of templates. User interfaces are automatically generated based on the group of rule templates. A user may interact with the user interfaces to edit the rules defined by the group of templates. After editing the rules, executing the tasks associated with the group of templates will cause execution of the modified rules.

Abstract: A parallel or computing system and method make use of a plurality of adapters each affording a specific type of processing algorithm. At each point in an application, an adapter is identified, to parallelize that portion of the application. The process involves associating an appropriate adapter with the application portion, parsing the application portion to define tasks that may be distributed over the available computers. Combined with the parallelized program is a software server that is designed to cooperate with the adapters to control and supervise distributed processing functions. Such functions include mapping, load balancing, and error detection and correction. Also included are functions that cause the results of the computing to be coordinated in real-time and returned appropriately, according to the application. In addition to the parallelized program and server, an application created by the present invention is provided with the functionality of virtual middleware, which interfaces with and controls existing forms of middleware.
