20090252577 | Automatic load transfer device and method for automated material handling systems - An automatic load transfer device is provided for automated material handling systems of the type having a tow AGV pulling a train of trailers along a predetermined path between stations. The device has a base positioned adjacent to the path with spaced apart rails that support a movable carriage which shifts between retracted and extended positions. A conveyor having a plurality of side-by-side fingers with moving conveyor elements is supported on the carriage by a lift which shifts the conveyor between lowered and raised positions. The carriage, conveyor elements, and lift have separate drives that are operably connected with a controller which sequentially activates the same to load and/or unload loads onto and/or from the trailers. | 10-08-2009 |

20140281739 | CRITICAL SYSTEMS INSPECTOR - Techniques are described for identifying a root cause of a pattern of performance data in a system including a plurality of services. Embodiments provide dependency information for each of the plurality of services, where at least one of the plurality of services is dependent upon a first one of the plurality of services. Each of the plurality of services is monitored to collect performance data for the respective service. Embodiments further analyze the performance data to identify a cluster of services that each follow a pattern of performance data. The first one of the services in the cluster of services is determined to be a root cause of the pattern of performance data, based on the determined dependency information for each of the plurality of services. | 09-18-2014 |
20140282422 | USING CANARY INSTANCES FOR SOFTWARE ANALYSIS - Techniques for evaluating a second version of software. Embodiments selectively route incoming requests to software instances within a plurality of baseline instances and a plurality of canary instances, where the baseline instances run a first software version and the canary instances run the second software version. The software instances are monitored to collect performance data for a plurality of performance metrics. Embodiments calculate aggregate baseline performance metrics, where each of the aggregate baseline performance metrics is calculated based on the collected performance data for the plurality of baseline instances. For each of the performance metrics and canary instances, embodiments calculate a relative performance value that measures the collected performance data for the respective canary instance and for the respective performance metric, relative to the corresponding aggregate baseline performance metric. A final measure of performance is calculated for the second version of software, based on the relative performance values. | 09-18-2014 |
