Patent attributes
A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes receiving, by the computer, status information about one or more product containers, wherein the status information includes conditions of each of the one or more product containers. Preferred ranges for the conditions of each of the one or more product containers are determined based on food products stored in the one or more product containers, where the preferred ranges change over time by a predefined amount per unit time, and where the predefined amount and the unit time are specified in a profile associated with products stored in the one or more product containers. A determination is made as to whether the received conditions from the one or more product containers are within the preferred ranges. A first command is sent in response to determining that at least one of the received conditions is outside the determined preferred range.
