Abstract: Methods and apparatus for correcting out-of-order data transactions over an inter-processor communication (IPC) link between two (or more) independently operable processors. In one embodiment, a peripheral-side processor receives data from an external device and stores it to memory. The host processor writes data structures (transfer descriptors) describing the received data, regardless of the order the data was received from the external device. The transfer descriptors are written to a memory structure (transfer descriptor ring) in memory shared between the host and peripheral processors. The peripheral reads the transfer descriptors and writes data structures (completion descriptors) to another memory structure (completion descriptor ring). The completion descriptors are written to enable the host processor to retrieve the stored data in the correct order. In optimized variants, a completion descriptor describes groups of transfer descriptors.

Abstract: An application with self-configuring accessibility settings is described. The application is configured to interact with an operating system of a computing device upon which the application is executing to obtain information relating to one or more user-configurable accessibility settings of the operating system. Such interaction may occur via an application programming interface exposed by the operating system. Based on the information obtained from the operating system, the application then determines one or more accessibility settings of the application, which may include identifying the one or more accessibility settings of the application based on a correspondence to the one or more accessibility settings of the operating system. The application then applies the one or more application accessibility settings either automatically or after obtaining user approval.

One example method comprises obtaining an electronic model of a structure, the electronic model including a objects, and the objects representing physical objects to be constructed. Dependencies between the objects are determined, with the determined dependencies indicating that a first object is to be constructed prior to a second object. Construction orderings are generated based on the determined dependencies, with each construction ordering indicating a unique order in which the objects are to be constructed. A user interface is presented via a user device describing the construction orderings, with a system being configured to trigger updates to the electronic model in response to received material changes associated with the electronic model.

Abstract: Concurrency control in an asynchronous event-loop based program environment is described. A program is implemented with an asynchronous event-loop. A first piece of code controls events into the program by preventing events from being delivered to the program while a storage operation is executing except for storage completion events. Those events are prevented from being delivered to the program until the storage operation completes and the program is not executing code. A second piece of code controls outgoing messages from the program by preventing outgoing messages from being transmitted when a storage write operation is in progress except for outgoing messages that are storage write operations. Upon the successful completion of the storage write operation, the outgoing messages that were prevented from being transmitted are transmitted.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a client computing device including a browser that renders a web page. Program code generates a mock upload event and a corresponding mock data transfer object for uploading data using the web page. The mock upload event and the corresponding mock data transfer object are propagated to an upload event listener of the web page and executed. Prior to generating the mock upload event and corresponding mock data transfer object, an embedded upload event listener may receive an upload event, read the upload event, drop the received upload event from an event handler pipeline, and call synchronously or asynchronously, code to perform logic on the received upload event for the generation of the mock upload event and a corresponding mock data transfer object.

Abstract: A hardware client and corresponding method employ an object-oriented memory device. The hardware client generates an object-oriented message associated with an object of an object class. The object class includes at least one data member and at least one method. The hardware client transmits the object-oriented message generated to the object-oriented memory device via a hardware communications interface. The hardware communications interface couples the hardware client to the object-oriented memory device. The object is instantiated or to-be instantiated in at least one physical memory of the object-oriented memory device according to the object class. The at least one method enables the object-oriented memory device to access the at least one data member for the hardware client.

Abstract: Examples herein describe systems and methods for hanger placement for computer-aided design (“CAD”). A plugin can provide a hanger placement option on a graphical user interface (“GUI”) of the CAD program. When the option is selected, the plugin can choose hanger locations on a run of ductwork or piping based on hanger parameters and collision detection. This can include testing hanger locations by building an array between the selected item and the ceiling of a plan in the GUI, and testing for collisions with other objects at each point in the array. If a collision is detected, a new hanger location is tested. The new hanger location can be selected based on the hanger parameters, such as by incrementing the interval between hangers while staying within a maximum interval.

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to generating a wiring schema with more than one safety device sharing at least one test signal through one or more external terminal blocks when the number of terminals required by safety devices exceeds the number of available terminals of a safety controller. In an illustrative example, the method may include determining a total number of terminals A of safety devices to be connected to a safety evaluation device having a number of terminals B. If A is greater than B, the method may then include generating a wiring schema that one or more external terminal blocks may show indicia of electrical connections between an identified set of safety devices and a shared terminal of the safety evaluation device associated with that set. By using the method, the number of devices that can be connected to the safety evaluation device may be expanded.

Abstract: A system for generating and maintaining multidimensional logical models of a defined environment, including a structure to be erected within the environment, is accessible via mobile computing or communications devices. The logical models are compatible with other 2D or 3D blueprints and model formats, extending beyond the physical components of the structure to include additional dimensions such as scheduling data, cost information, resources management, and lifecycle data. The logical models are accessed and modified through reconfigurable portals tailored to designers, builders, contractors, managers, tenants, and other particular stakeholders. Stakeholders may add to a logical model—for example, commenting on the delivery or installation of a window or other fixture—via image, audio, or other non-text formats. The system may be trained to learn from new information about the environment or the structures by finding patterns in the inbound data and in existing data components of the logical model.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product provide the ability to dynamically generate a digital building information model. Design data for various designs is received. The design data for each design is encoded into a graph. A knowledge base (consisting of a collection of the design data, actions taken on the design data, and interpretations of the received design data) is maintained. The knowledge base processes and stores the graph, and indexes and provides access to design knowledge. The knowledge base is iteratively trained based on the graph and updates to the graph, and translates user input for new design projects into actionable design models, documentation, and analytical data. User input (e.g., a sketch or bubble diagram) is received. As the user input is received, a layout floorplan is generated and displayed in real-time (based on the user input and the knowledge base).
