Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure describe Rayleigh-based DTSS that utilizes few-mode fiber (FMF), which supports multiple spatial modes. For each spatial mode, a wavelength-scanning configuration gives the relative wavelength (or frequency) shift between two consecutive measurements. The temperature and strain changes can therefore be separated through different temperature/strain sensitivities of various mode-pairs. Advantageously, Rayleigh-based DTSS according to aspects of the present disclosure removes temperature-strain ambiguity, enhances measurement accuracy, reduces errors. and enables new features for multi-parameter sensing.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for committing log data in an application to a log data repository. An example method generally includes receiving, from an application, data to be committed to a remote storage location. A type of the received data is determined. The type of the received data is generally associated with a prioritization level and a compression mechanism to be used in committing the data to the remote storage location.

Generally, to compress the data payload, at least the received data is generally compressed based on the determined compression mechanism.

Abstract: Query execution status may be tracked to selectively route queries to resources for execution. The completion of queries executing at computing resources obtained from a pool of computing resources configured to execute queries may be detected. Instead of returning the computing resources to the pool, the computing resources may be identified as available in resource management data. When another query is received, the resource management data may be evaluated to select an available computing resource. The query may then be routed to the selected computing resource for execution.

Abstract: Queries may be received and executed by a managed query service. A query directed to data sets that are separately stored in a remote data store may be received. Computing resources to execute the query may be provisioned from a pool of computing resources that are configured to execute queries. The query may be routed to the provisioned computing resources to execute the query. Results may be obtained from the computing resource and provided to a submitter of the query.

Abstract: Techniques are described for an interactive query service that enables users to query data stored at a federated collection of data sources. An interactive query service provides interfaces that enable users to configure the interactive query service to query any number of heterogeneous data sources pertinent to a user. In general, the configuration of a data source can include identification of: a data source type, access configurations related to accessing the data source, and in some cases metadata describing a structure of the data stored by the data source (for example, a data catalog describing schemas, tables, columns, partitions, datatypes, or other metadata associated with the stored data). Once configured, an interactive query service can receive and execute queries that involve data stored at any combination of a user's data sources, where the queries may be expressed using a standard query language such as the Structured Query Language (SQL).

Abstract: Physimetric-based data security for coded distributed temperature sensing (DTS) in which physimetric information is extracted from a coded-DTS interrogator which is unique for each interrogator at each operating run time—and used to reconstruct a final temperature determination from DTS data. The physimetric information includes coded-DTS pulse code and coded-DTS pulse profile information as a key to permit secure sharing with authorized users. The pulse code and pulse profile information are encrypted and made available to an authorized user. The authorized user can then decrypt the pulse code and pulse profile information and subsequently use this key information (pulse profile and pulse code files) to retrieve temperature information from for example, a remote computer providing a continuous raw data feed—without being susceptible to eavesdropping.

A comparison of the configuration of computing resources that executed previous queries may be made to select the configuration of computing resources for a received query. A historical query execution model maybe applied, in some embodiments, to determine a resource configuration for computing resources to execute a query. The computing resources may be selected from available computing resources according to the determined resource configuration.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a method, a device and a system for fault detection. The fault detection method includes following steps: acquiring interactive data generated during a working process of a target Internet of Things system, and generating data to be detected based on the interactive data; detecting whether the data to be detected is fault data or not, and performing an emotion analysis on the data to be detected which is judged as the fault data to obtain a corresponding emotion label; and extracting a corresponding fault type from a preset fault emotion mapping table based on the emotion label and outputting the fault type. In this disclosure, the interactive data is analogized to human emotions, and the faults are accurately found through the emotional analysis on the data, thereby achieving the fault detection of the Internet of Things system in a convenient, flexible and accurate manner.

Abstract: Cognitive determination of whether a message is suitable for sending over a data communications network can include extracting tokens from the message prior to transmitting the message. One or more intended recipients of the message can be determined from the tokens. A machine learning classification model corresponding to the one or more recipients of the message can be selected. The machine learning classification model can be constructed based on tokens extracted from prior messages, which are combined to create a plurality of documents for training the machine learning classification model. The one or more tokens extracted from the message can be classified using the machine learning classification model. An alert message can be generated in response to determining based on the classifying that the message is unsuited for sending.
