20080222179 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SHARING AND REUSE OF STRUCTURED KNOWLEDGE ARTIFACTS - In areas that require repetitive data collection and entry, an efficient way to reuse data that is already available in the system is proposed. This technique involves the reuse of data artifact fields, validation and categorization of data artifacts, and computerized filling in of “inheritable” data into reports such as aircraft maintenance reports. | 09-11-2008 |
20080301570 | SPACIOTEMPORAL GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR COLLABORATIVE AND SECURE INFORMATION SHARING - A collaborative information sharing system as described herein employs a graphical user interface (GUI) that displays a spaciotemporal rendering along with icons that represent items of interest, such as aircraft, vessels, radar equipment, and communications equipment. The GUI is also used to display item data that describes, defines, or identifies the items of interest. The item data may be provided by multiple information sources residing in different network security domains. The system combines item data governed by disparate security protocols in a manner that allows users having different security credentials to collaborate and share the information while still providing the required security and data protection. | 12-04-2008 |
20120324438 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR GENERATING READ-ONLY OPERATING SYSTEMS - Methods and systems for use in generating read-only production operating systems including at least one application for use with a target workstation are disclosed. One example method includes providing a baseline operating system based on a hardware profile of the target workstation, executing an installation script for a target application, adding at least one resource to the baseline operating system based on an error message indicating at least one resource called by the installation script is not found, and writing, at a computing device, a production operating system to a read-only media. The production operating includes the baseline operating system and the at least one resource. | 12-20-2012 |
20150029332 | CONTROLLING MOVEMENT OF A CAMERA TO AUTONOMOUSLY TRACK A MOBILE OBJECT - A method is provided that includes receiving from a camera, video depicting a scene having a center bounded by first and second horizontal edges. The scene also includes an identified object of interest (OI) having a region around the identified OI and a motion vector representing a location, and an amount and at least a horizontal direction of movement. The method also includes calculating from the location of the identified OI, a distance of the identified OI from either or both of the horizontal edges of the scene, and in which the first horizontal edge is in the horizontal direction of movement and the second horizontal edge is opposite the horizontal direction of movement. And the method includes causing an increase or decrease in speed of the camera in the horizontal direction of movement based on location of the identified OI relative to the first/second horizontal edges. | 01-29-2015 |
20150120271 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VISUALIZATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF SYSTEM OF SYSTEMS - A system for visualizing and optimizing the operation of a system of systems. A Design of Experiments is conducted for a particular system of systems architecture using a simulation engine based upon a predefined set of inputs. The results are stored in a database as real data. Surface Response Models are built based upon the results and simulation data is generated and stored based on the Surface Response Models for data not present in the results. The results of the Design of Experiments are filtered to identify key variables. Values and rankings are selected for the key variables. An interim output is generated and displayed based on the selected values and rankings. The interim output is determined based on the real and simulation data. The results are verified by performing a simulation based on the selected values and comparing the simulation output with the interim output. | 04-30-2015 |
