The connected approach to fleet management

Warehouse

A more holistic and connected approach to fleet maintenance and management holds the key to increasing uptime and decreasing maintenance costs. Contractors face a triple threat when they do too much maintenance work in a reactive mode, responding when assets break down.

Specialized maintenance software is essential to an effective program, especially when it comes to automating preventive maintenance. Repair requests and work orders can be initiated and processed electronically, providing real-time visibility and allowing work to be planned, scheduled and executed with maximum efficiency.

The data helps companies make decisions about processes, scheduling, staffing and asset replacement strategies. A foreman hordes idle equipment in case it might be needed on a site, preventing it from being utilized elsewhere. By contrast, industry leaders leverage mobile capabilities and cohesive maintenance, scheduling, and tracking technology to keep everyone on the same page and empower them with real-time information.

The challenge now is to aggregate and analyze that data and turn it into intelligence that can increase uptime and cut overall equipment costs. GPS tracking is also imperative for modern scheduling and dispatching, removing any doubts as to exactly where a piece of equipment is at a given time.

Mobile capabilities and cohesive maintenance, scheduling and tracking technology are emerging as key assets for these leaders.

The Morning After: 'Sonic the Hedgehog' got rescheduled

Employees and partners are already testing its streaming capabilities. Every Xbox One title will be playable on Project xCloud When Project xCloud debuts, it'll be capable of streaming any of the system's games (including backward compatible ones) out of the gate without developers needing to make any changes. Microsoft also says when a developer updates an Xbox One game, those changes will automatically apply to Project xCloud versions. However, changes to the developer's kit let a game know when it's being played from the cloud to adjust for different types of displays or run multiplayer games on a single server. The teeth, the legs, the teeth, the eyes, the teeth. 'Sonic the Hedgehog' movie delayed to fix nightmare-inducing design Following a statement by director Jeff Fowler that changes are "going to happen," Paramount pushed back the release date three months to give the filmmakers "a little more time to make Sonic just right."

The Large Magellanic Cloud comes alive in a 240 megapixel image

Ciel Austral is a team of five very enthusiastic amateur French astronomers, Jean Claude Canonne, Philippe Bernhard, Didier Chaplain, Nicolas Outters, and Laurent Bourgon, who own and operate their own telescope in northern Chile. The 14400×14200 image was stitched together from nearly 4,000 separate images that required 1,060 hours (6.3 weeks) of exposures shot from July 2017 to January 2019. It took two computers eight days to stitch together the photos, and a further two months to process the 620 gigabytes of data. If you could warp yourself to the Magellanic Cloud, it wouldn't look like the dreamy, painterly image pictured above. Much of the image is made up of false colors that show the different elements present in the image. Different colors represent hydrogen, sulfur and oxygen III, emphasizing the cloud-like high-density gas nebulae in a way that a standard visible light image can't. The image shows the birth and death of stars and the aftermath, including super...
