Abstract: Fiber optic cable assemblies having a construction suitable for a first deployment scenario where the optical connection is made to the device externally that may be transformed for a second deployment scenario where the optical connection is disposed within an internal cavity of the device are disclosed. The cable assembly has one or more cable legs disposed within a profile support element and are disposed under the heat shrink. The fiber optic connectors are exposed and suitable for optical connection with the heat shrink intact on the cable assembly and the profile support element further provides further flexibility using different outer housings with the cable assembly when making external optical connections to the device Thus, the concepts disclosed advantageously allow a single cable assembly to support multiple deployment scenarios in the field, thereby reducing complexity.

Abstract: A distributed, transactional database uses timestamps, such as logical clock values, for entry versioning and transaction management in the database. To write to the database, a service requests a timestamp to be inserted into the database with a new version of data. During a backup procedure, a cleanup process is paused, issuing new timestamps is paused, and a backup timestamp is generated, which results in an effective backup copy. During a restore of a backup, a snapshot of the database is loaded and any entries older than the backup timestamp are deleted, which ensures that a consistent restore has occurred.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are provided for recursively searching a plurality of workspaces of the system for linked data associated with the seed data, initiating an endpoint process for each the seed data and the linked data, and, upon completion of the search, delete the seed data and the linked data identified based at least in part on the endpoint process. The process may be automatically repeated at a predetermined time interval to identify and remove future data that is stored in the plurality of datasets.

Abstract: A wear part and retainer system in combination, for earthmoving and mining equipment, the wear part having a first passage extending therethrough in one direction and a second passage extending in a direction lateral to and intersecting the first passage. The first and second passages each have an outer end and an inner end. A latching member is mounted in the first passage for movement between a non-latching position and a latching position in which it locks the wear part to a mother part. The latching member has a recess therein and a biasing element mounted in the recess. A locking pin is mounted in the second passage for selective movement along the passage between a retracted position in which the latching member is free to move into and out of the recess and an extended position in which it locks the latch in the latching position.

Abstract: The invention relates to bismuth-thiol compounds and pharmaceutical preparations thereof. The invention further relates to methods for treating a topical wound, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising a bismuth-thiol compound, wherein the composition is applied to the infection. Methods for treating microbial infections such as diabetic foot infections are also provided.

Abstract: Data item deltas are generated for each of M updates of a plurality of updates, wherein M is greater than or equal to one, and a first first-level combined delta is generated representing N updates of the plurality of updates, wherein N is greater than M, and the N updates comprise the M updates and O=N?M other updates. A first second-level combined delta is generated representing J updates of the plurality of updates, wherein J is greater than N, and the J updates comprise the N updates and K other updates of the plurality of updates, wherein K=J?N. The deltas, the first first-level combined delta and the first second-level combined delta are stored for enabling subsequent reading of at least part of the data by accessing the data item, the first first-level combined delta and the first second-level combined delta.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed. The method, which may be performed by one or more processors, may comprise receiving timestamp data representing a plurality of database transactions and dividing the timestamp data into a plurality of partitioning quanta (nPQ), each partitioning quantum (PQ) of the plurality of partitioning quanta representing a range of timestamps. Further, for each partitioning quantum (PQ) of the plurality of partitioning quanta (nPQ), the method may comprise allocating the timestamp data, such that sequentially adjacent timestamps are allocated to different partitions of a physical storage system for subsequent storage at the allocated partitions.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a data structure which includes a sequence of events, each event associated with a sequence number indicating a temporal position of an event within the sequence of events; one or more read-offsets, each read-offset associated with a consumer, wherein each read-offset indicates a sequence number up to which a consumer has read events within the sequence of events; and at least one snapshot which represents events with sequence numbers smaller than the smallest read-offset in a compacted form. Disclosed herein is also a computer-implemented method of maintaining the data structure.

Abstract: Systems and methods generate a first security node hash identifier by performing a first hash operation, such as a one-way hash, on a first data resource identifier associated with a first data resource, such as a data set, produced by a data resource platform. The systems and methods generate a dependent second security node hash identifier by performing a second hash operation on a second data resource identifier associated with a dependent second data resource produced by the data resource platform and on the first security node hash identifier, receive an access request for access to the dependent second data resource; and in response to the access request, grant permission to access the dependent second data resource to a user associated with the access request based on the dependent second security node hash identifier.
