20130260188 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OPTIMIZED BATTERY LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT - Method and apparatus for optimized battery life cycle management are described. A battery management system (BMS), comprising a battery, identifies battery-specific factors with associated environmental conditions, and battery history profiles at a current time instant. The BMS measures current, voltage, and/or power of the battery instantaneously. The resulting battery measurements, the battery-specific factors with associated environmental conditions, and the battery history profiles, formed as battery dynamic situations at the current time instant, may be time stamped for estimating an instantaneous battery state of the battery. The time stamped battery dynamic situations may be aggregated for long-term trend analysis for the battery state. The instantaneous battery state estimate is updated by comparing with the long-term trend analysis to manage battery charging or discharging. The battery operating conditions are determined based on the updated battery state estimate. The BMS may manage system power consumptions based on the determined battery conditions. | 10-03-2013 |

20130318236 | KEY INDICATORS VIEW - A system and computer-implemented is provided for displaying a configurable metric relating to an environment in a graphical display along with a value of the metric calculated over a configurable time period. The metric is used to identify events of interest in the environment based on processing real time machine data from one or more sources. The configurable metric is selected and a corresponding value is calculated based on the events of interest over the configurable time period. The value of the metric may be continuously updated in real time based on receiving additional real-time machine data and displayed in a graphical interface as time progresses. Statistical trends in the value of the metric may also be determined over the configurable time period and displayed in the graphical interface as well as an indication if the value of the metric exceeds a configurable threshold value. Further, a selection of one or more thresholds for the value of the metric may be applied and an indication displayed indicating if the threshold(s) have been exceeded. | 11-28-2013 |

For example, a metric value could include a length of a URL or agent string in the event. A subset criterion is generated, such that metric values within the subset are relatively separated from a population's center (e.g., within a distribution tail). Application of the criterion to metric values produces a subset. A representation of the subset is presented in an interactive dashboard. The representation can include unique values in the subset and counts of corresponding event occurrences. Clients can select particular elements in the representation to cause more detail to be presented with respect to individual events corresponding to specific values in the subset. Thus, clients can use their knowledge system operations and observance of value frequencies and underlying events to identify anomalous metric values and potential security threats. | 12-05-2013 |

20150082221 | MULTI-LANE TIME-SYNCHED VISUALIZATIONS OF MACHINE DATA EVENTS - A visualization can include a set of swim lanes, each swim lane representing information about an event type. An event type can be specified, e.g., as those events having certain keywords and/or having specified value(s) for specified field(s). The swim lane can plot when (within a time range) events of the associated event type occurred. Specifically, each such event can be assigned to a bucket having a bucket time matching the event time. A swim lane can extend along a timeline axis in the visualization, and the buckets can be positioned at a point along the axis that represents the bucket time. Thus, the visualization may indicate whether events were clustered at a point in time. Because the visualization can include a plurality of swim lanes, the visualization can further indicate how timing of events of a first type compare to timing of events of a second type. | 03-19-2015 |

20090027822 | Transient blocking unit having a fab-adjustable threshold current - A transient blocking unit (TBU) is a transistor circuit that is normally on, but rapidly and automatically switches to a high-resistance current blocking state when a current threshold is exceeded, thereby protecting a series connected load from over-voltage or over-current conditions. Process variation of transistor threshold voltage and on-resistance can cause undesirable variation of the TBU threshold current and/or of TBU resistance. Control of TBU threshold current and/or resistance is improved by providing for trimming the TBU during its fabrication to provide a one-time adjustment of the threshold current or resistance. Such trimming can be done with a resistive trimming circuit placed in series with the on-resistance of the relevant TBU transistor. Alternatively, a segmented TBU transistor having an on-resistance that is adjustable by way of wire bonding during fabrication can be employed. | 01-29-2009 |
