Title: Managing an object in a management framework
Inventor: SWEITZER JOHN W
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2001-05-24
Abstract: A manageability model integrates the notion of the resource's life cycle into a model definition. Thus, for example, the resource life cycle may include a number of representative stages: before in-hand, before installed, while installing, while binding, before operational, and while operational. In a representative embodiment, the manageability model for an object comprises a set of properties, a set of property categories into which the set of properties are organized, and at least one category characteristic for a given property category. The category characteristic includes a qualifier having values identifying phases within a life cycle of the resource. During management, attributes of the object are classified according to phases of a life cycle of the resource. During a given management operation, an operational state of the resource is then identified. Depending on the operational state identified, a given constraint is then applied to the management operation.

Title: Earthing device with resistance monitoring
Inventor: EDGE IAN JAMES
IPC: G01R27/14
Filed: 2001-07-23
Abstract: A device indicates whether a conductive element has an electrical resistance equal to or less than a predetermined value, or whether the conductive element is connected to earth by a resistance equal to or less than a predetermined value. The device comprises a grounding clamp 1 to connect the device to the conductive element, the clamp including spring-loaded jaws 2, 3 with electrical contacts 4, 5. The clamp is earthed by wire 6 and contains or is connected to a monitoring unit (not shown). The monitoring unit may be battery powered and comprises a current-to-voltage converter with an output proportional to the resistance of the conductive element or the resistance of the earth connection. A comparator in the monitoring unit determines if the measured resistance is equal to or less than the predetermined value. Signalling means, such as light emitting diode 8, are actuated to provide an indication of the result of the comparison. The device thus indicates if the clamp makes good contact with the conductive element, and if the earth connection is sufficient. The device is particularly suited for use in atmospheres where a spark discharge could cause fire or explosion.
