Abstract: Agricultural electronics include many components. The components can be connected via an electronic link that connects the various components to components of an agricultural implement. This can include the use of a component type identifier and a master module. The identifier and the module can communicate data, including identification data and instructional data, to easily acknowledge and operate various electrical components of the agricultural implement. Additional sensors can be included to provide even additional data that is communicated between the module and the components of the agricultural implement to aid in providing instructions for operation and to provide additional data information.

Abstract: In some implementations, a system may establish an interview session between a first client device associated with an interviewer and a second client device associated with a candidate. The system may transmit, to the first client device associated with the interviewer, a first user interface during the interview session between the first client device and the second client device. The system may transmit, to the second client device associated with the candidate, a second user interface during the interview session between the first client device and the second client device. The system may receive, from the first client device, the feedback associated with the interview session. The system may transmit, to a human resource system, the feedback to enable a hiring recommendation regarding whether to offer the position associated with the interview session to the candidate.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes: receiving a declaration of a variable as a secret type for source code; designating a data record including the variable as secret; creating metadata for the data record, wherein the metadata for the data record labels the data record as secret; allocating a first memory buffer for the data record; updating metadata for the first memory buffer to label the first memory buffer as secret; and if, while executing the source code, the data record is copied from the first memory buffer to a second memory buffer whose metadata labels the second memory buffer as other than secret, updating metadata for the second memory buffer to label the second memory buffer as secret.

Abstract: Source code verification, including receiving a declaration of a variable as a secret type, determining if any source code is configured to use the variable as a type other than secret, and if it is determined that there is source code that will use the variable as a type other than secret, creating an exception in the source code verification process.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, source code that includes at least one request to send an asynchronous message between state machines is obtained at a computing system. The computing system determines whether the asynchronous message can be implemented as an inlined message. Executable machine code corresponding to the source code is compiled such that the asynchronous message is compiled as an inlined message.

Abstract: A renewable energy extraction device, such as a wind turbine generator includes a turbine driving a hydraulic pump and a variable displacement hydraulic motor driving an electrical generator connected directly to an electricity grid. The hydraulic motor employs electronically controlled valves operated to select the net displacement of working chambers of the hydraulic motor on each successive cycle of working chamber volume. In the event of an electric grid fault causing the maximum absorbable torque of the electrical generator to collapse, the electronically controlled valves are controlled to substantially reduce the rate of displacement of working fluid by the hydraulic motor, rapidly reducing the torque exerted on the generator rotor. This has the benefit of avoiding pole slip which could otherwise cause serious damage.

Abstract: A wind turbine generator (100), or other energy extraction device, has a hydraulic circuit comprising a hydraulic pump (129) driven by a rotating shaft (125) and a hydraulic motor (131) driving an electricity generator (157), or other load. A high pressure manifold (133) extending between the pump and motor is in communication with an accumulator (145, 147, 149). A controller receives a control signal and regulates the displacement of working fluid by the hydraulic pump and the hydraulic motor relative to each other. Thus, power input through the rotating shaft and output to the load can be decoupled for at least a period of time and the energy output of energy extraction device can be varied, for example to smooth the total power output to an electricity grid (101), without compromising power input. A group of energy extraction devices can be controlled in concert to maximise power input while providing smooth power output.

Abstract: It is intended to provide a power generating apparatus of renewable energy type and an operation method of the power generating apparatus, which can achieve both variable speed operation and grid connection without a frequency converting circuit and which uses a hydraulic transmission. In the power generating apparatus of renewable energy type 1, renewable energy received via a blade 4 is transmitted to a synchronous generator 20 via a rotating shaft 8 and a hydraulic transmission 10. The synchronous generator 20 is driven by a hydraulic motor 14 of the hydraulic transmission 10 to generate power. The synchronous generator 20 is connected to a grid without a frequency converting circuit and the power generated by the synchronous generator 20 is supplied to the grid 50. The power generating apparatus 1 is also provided with a transmission controller 40 which controls the hydraulic transmission 10.

Abstract: A wind turbine generator, or other energy extraction device, has a hydraulic circuit comprising a hydraulic pump driven by a rotating shaft and a hydraulic motor driving an electricity generator. When the electricity generator is switched off, it executes one or more pumping cycles to pressurise the high pressure manifold and therefore recover angular kinetic energy from the electricity generator rotor which can later be used to reaccelerate the electricity generator rotor to the correct operating speed for an electricity grid. Overall energy efficiency is increased and the minimum operating high pressure manifold pressure may be reduced as a result.
