20130327746 | ELECTRODE DIAMETER SENSING CONSUMABLES - The present disclosure provides a welding system capable of detecting a size of a welding material and automatically implementing appropriate arc starting parameters. The welding system includes a welder, a welding torch, and a sensor, in which the sensor is configured to detect the size of the welding material, directly or indirectly. The welder is automatically configured to produce an arc having the arc starting parameters determined from the size of the welding material detected by the sensor. The present disclosure decreases operational error by automatically changing arc starting parameters and/or welding parameters based upon a change in welding material size, rather than requiring an operator to manually change the arc starting parameters and/or welding parameters. | 12-12-2013 |
20140151350 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING WELDING WIRE DIAMETER - A welding system includes a welding wire feeder, a welding power supply, and a sensor. The power supply is coupled to the welding wire feeder and configured to produce a welding arc. The sensor is configured to sense a parameter indicative of a size of a welding wire fed through the welding wire feeder. The sensor is configured to send a signal to the power supply, the signal representing the parameter indicative of the size of the welding wire. The power supply is configured to automatically implement at least one of an arc starting parameter or a welding parameter based on the signal. | 06-05-2014 |
20140166629 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR INDICATING POWER ON A TORCH - Devices and methods for indicating power on a torch. In one example, a welding or plasma cutting torch includes an indicator coupled to the torch. The torch also includes control circuitry coupled to the indicator and configured to provide a first signal and a second signal to the indicator. The indicator is configured to receive the first signal when at least one of welding power and arc starting power from a power supply is available at the torch and to receive the second signal when the at least one of active welding power and the arc starting power from the power supply is not available at the torch. | 06-19-2014 |

20110066892 | Visual test automation tool for message-based applications, web applications and SOA systems - In one embodiment, a graphical user interface (“GUI”) enables the efficient composition and execution of a test of a message-based application, Web application, or SOA systems' capacity to receive, process and respond to message traffic. The GUI may be used to generate a test composition by dragging and dropping message clips onto one or more tracks. Each clip includes one or more message, with each track being organized into one or more bands. Each track and each band may run contemporaneously to send messages to a target device or application. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. | 03-17-2011 |
20120017112 | System and method for provisioning and running a cross-cloud test grid - An automated method for provisioning a grid used to run a load test on a target website includes sending one or more requests in a multi-threaded manner to at least one cloud provider, the one or more requests for an allocation of N load server instances and M result server instances which comprise the grid. Requests received back from the cloud provider are also handled in a multi-threaded manner; any errors occurring during the allocation being corrected automatically. The N load server instances and the M result server instances are then verified to be operational and correctly running software deployed to provide defined test services. Errors identified during the verification are automatically corrected either by attempting to restart a failed instance or allocating a different instance. | 01-19-2012 |
20120017156 | Real-Time, multi-tier load test results aggregation - A method for real-time analysis of results from a load test performed on a target website includes periodically computing first-level aggregated test results within each of a plurality of load server instances that generate a load on the target website. The first-level aggregated test results are computed from data received by each of the load server instances from the target website every first time interval. The first-level aggregated test results are then periodically sent from each of the load server instances to an associated one of a plurality of analytic server instances every second time interval. The first-level aggregated test results are aggregated by each of the analytic server instances to produce second-level aggregated test results, which test results may then further aggregated to produce third-level aggregated test results at a data storage instance in real-time. | 01-19-2012 |
20120017165 | Apparatus and method for combining / correlating data sets - A processor-implemented method includes providing an analytic dashboard with a graphical user interface (GUI) that outputs aggregated results streaming in real-time of a load test performed on a target website. Responsive to input of a user on the GUI, the input comprising selection of a source chart and a target chart, a single chart is automatically generated that represents either a combination or a statistical correlation of the source and target charts. The single chart has a left y-axis and an x-axis. The combination or the statistical correlation of the single chart changing in real-time as the load test progresses. A visual representation of the single chart is then produced on the analytic dashboard. | 01-19-2012 |
20120246310 | Active Waterfall Charts - A processor-implemented method includes providing an analytic dashboard with a graphical user interface (GUI) that outputs aggregated results streaming in real-time of a load test performed on a target website. The load test consists of a plurality of virtual users simulated by one or more load servers that execute a test composition on one or more webpages of the website. A waterfall chart is produced on the analytic dashboard that includes a plurality of timeline bars. Each of the timeline bars represents an aggregated result for a resource of the one or more webpages across all of the virtual users. The timeline bars change in real-time as the load test progresses. | 09-27-2012 |

20130205020 | REAL-TIME ANALYTICS OF WEB PERFORMANCE USING ACTUAL USER MEASUREMENTS - A method for real-time capture of actual user experiences on a website, web application or mobile app includes receiving, in first servers, one or more beacons, each containing data items. Each beacon is generated in real-time from a user session. The data items are aggregated in one or more first sets of N data buckets associated with each of the first servers. Each of the first servers transmits the data items of each of the N data buckets to a second server over a network, which further aggregates the data items received in one or more sets of N data buckets corresponding to and identically configured as the data buckets of the first servers. The corresponding data contents of the one or more second sets of N data buckets is aggregated into one or more final sets of N data buckets used in generating a real-time analytic dashboard. | 08-08-2013 |
20140033055 | Animated Globe Showing Real-Time Web User Performance Measurements - A method includes providing a graphical user interface (GUI) that displays a view of the globe as from outer space. The view including a geographic distribution of beacons having one or more visual attributes. Each beacon corresponds to one or more real users who are accessing a website, web application or mobile app from a geographic location. The visual attributes include an indicator of a performance metric representative of an experience of the one or more real users of the website, web application, or mobile app. Each beacon is generated in real-time from aggregated data obtained in real-time from one or more corresponding real user sessions on the website, web application or mobile app. The beacons are periodically refreshed with the visual attributes changing in response to measured changes in the geographic distribution, a total number of real users at the location, or the performance indicator at the location. | 01-30-2014 |
