Abstract:
Disclosed embodiments include a distributed system and server for detecting changes to web pages comprises (a) a Web Change Detection (WCD) server connected to the network, and (b) one or more WCD agents stored on the WCD server configured to be executed directly on a web browser to detect web page changes. The WCD comprises (a) an agent storage module configured to store the WCD agents, (b) a WCD repository to store a WCD information regarding the web pages in the server memory, and (c) a WCD changes detector configured for receiving information sent by the WCD agents and detecting changes on the web pages. The WCD system relies on the web users accessing sites to collaboratively detect the changes on the web pages, eliminating the need for crawler estimates of web-page changes.
Abstract:
A transducer for determining the level of liquid within a container includes a mounting head adapted for connection to the container and a sensor assembly adapted to extend into the container from the mounting head. The sensor assembly includes a housing having an upper portion connected to the mounting head and a lower portion that extends from the upper portion. The lower portion has a hollow interior that is isolated from liquid within the container. A plurality of sensor elements are located within the hollow interior. A float rod is pivotally connected to the housing and a float is connected to a distal end of the float rod to thereby cause pivoting movement of the float rod in response to a change in liquid level within the container. An actuator is located outside of the housing and is operatively associated with the float rod for pivotal movement therewith. The actuator is operative to change an electrical state of at least one of the sensor elements to thereby indicate a level condition of the liquid within the container.
