  • Patent number: 11803511
    Abstract: Example aspects include techniques for ordering operations in a file system having a hierarchical namespace including determining, by a first service that manages file system operations for a first entity in the hierarchical namespace, to perform a file system operation for the first entity, generating, by the first service, a first counter record for the file system operation, obtaining, based on determining to perform the file system operation and from a second service that manages file system operations on a second entity that is a parent of the entity in the hierarchical namespace, a second counter record for a last file system operation performed on the second entity, wherein the second counter record is generated by the second service, and storing, in a change feed, an indication of the file system operation along with the first counter record and the second counter record.

  • Patent number: 7845667
    Abstract: A device to help an individual with a disability carry his or her bag or storage unit on their wheelchair or other mobility device, without requiring a large space to deploy the storage and retrieval product. The invention consists of a set of arms, connected to a sliding mechanism along a track. When the user wishes to access his or her belongings, the bag slides from a storage position behind the wheelchair to a retrieval position perpendicular to the wheelchair's armrest. The deployment process is accomplished without rotating the entire mechanism around a central axis. Thus, the invention keeps the storage unit close to the wheelchair and therefore takes up less space during retrieval and increases stability during deployment.
