Publication number: 20210303773Abstract: Layouts for elements of a flowchart or flow diagram may use recursive algorithms that trace along each parent-child pathway to ensure that child elements always occur after parent elements in a horizontal spacing. Vertical spacing requirements may then be calculated for each element, along with a vertical space above a center line and a vertical space below a center line for each element. These vertical spacing requirements may then be used by a recursive algorithm to assign vertical positions to each of the elements. The vertical spacing may ensure that lanes created for each branch element are not crossed by later elements in the process flow, which ensures that connections between elements may be clearly distinguished from each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2021Publication date: September 30, 2021Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventor: Michael Patrick Rodgers

Patent number: 11119723Abstract: Techniques for user-adaptive volume selection are disclosed. A system receives audio input that includes a user request to a virtual assistant. The system determines one or more sound characteristics corresponding to the audio input, and applies the sound characteristic(s) to a volume selection model. The volume selection model selects a volume level based on the sound characteristic(s). The system plays an audio response to the user's request at the selected volume level. Subsequently, the system receives user input to modify output volume to a different volume level. Based on the user input, the system calibrates the volume selection model. When the system receives another audio input, the system analyzes the other audio input to determine one or more sound characteristics of the other audio input. The system uses the calibrated volume selection model to select a volume level for an audio response to the other audio input.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2019Date of Patent: September 14, 2021Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventor: Michael Patrick Rodgers

Patent number: 11048429Abstract: Techniques are disclosed that allow for retroactively capturing a debug/trace-level log without experiencing the severe performance degradation that obtaining such a log would otherwise entail. Trace-level logging is performed by maintaining a buffer of log messages for application events. The buffer is allocated a memory having very fast write speeds, and writing such messages into the buffer has a negligible performance impact. Many of the messages written into the buffer may not be important or useful at the time they are written. However, when a failure occurs, the messages may be useful for figuring out what when wrong. Responsive to detecting a failure or other anomalous event, the buffer of messages is automatically written to a permanent storage. Although writing to the permanent storage may be slow, the performance degradation is only incurred when a failure occurs.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2018Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventor: Michael Patrick Rodgers
