Abstract: A process for generating regular expressions (regexes) as extraction patterns in a cluster computing system includes: receiving log events, a set of seed words, and a set of seed patterns; determining whether the set of seed words is full; if not, generating a new patterns by iteratively adding new patterns whose pattern scores S1 surpass a first preset score into the set of seed patterns; selecting a subset of seed patterns from the set of seed patterns; determining whether the subset of seed patterns is empty if not, generating a subset of seed words whose word scores S2 surpass a second preset score and iteratively adding the subset of seed words into the set of seed words; and repeating the above steps until the set of seed patterns is full and the set of seed words is empty; and finally pruning the set of seed patterns.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the provision of a bactericidal, antiviral preparation obtained from the process of forming a homogeneous solution mixture by mixing an emulsion of butter extract. The method of making this composition is a systematic technical solution to create a multi-polar substance that can dissolve easily in water but still has to be soluble in oil, along with an osmotic substance that dissolves the lipid layer capsid inactivates the virus. Compositions obtained from this method have the effect of bactericidal, antiviral, environmental treatment—deodorizing—anti-pollution in order to meet the urgent needs of people, society and environment.

Abstract: A method for loss-free compression of signals of wide dynamic range, such as seismic signals, includes sampling the signals, digitizing the signals, and using a predictive coding technique with transmission of prediction coefficients and of prediction residues. The method determines at least one amplitude range depending on a threshold value (S), that contains most of the prediction residues, codes the prediction residues by binary words having a number n of bits sufficient for coding of the range, and codes the prediction residues whose amplitude are outside this range, by binary words having a fixed number of bits greater than n.

Abstract: Method and device intended for synchronized acquisition of seismic signals by one or more acquisition units suited for seismic signal digitizing, allowing to obtain, for each signal, a series y[n] of samples of these signals readjusted from a reference time on, from a first series x[n] of digitized samples of this seismic signal produced from any initial time prior to the reference time. The method essentially comprises detecting a synchronization signal indicative of this reference time (TR), measuring the effective time difference (D) between the reference time and the initial time, determining coefficients of a digital filter (F) suited to compensate for the fractional part (d) of the measured effective time difference, and applying this compensation digital filter to the first series of samples, which allows to obtain a series of digitized samples readjusted from the reference time.

Abstract: The invention relates to a two-phase method of transmitting, to a central station (CS), seismic signals received by seismic receivers (R) and picked up by collecting units (A) disposed in the field. In the first phase, a compression is applied to each seismic trace, the ratio of which is adapted to the duration of a transmission window placed in the time intervals between successive seismic transmission-reception cycles, as well as to the rate of the transmission route used. The compressed trace as a whole is thus transmitted, allowing an operator at central station (CS) to check qualitatively that recording took place correctly in each collecting unit (A) even though he does not have the exact trace available.

Abstract: A configurable method and apparatus for implementing the various large memory instances commonly found in a user's design in a hardware logic emulation system is disclosed. No external boards or systems are required to implement typical memory instances. The method and apparatus sorts the memory instances in the user's input design, packing as many memory instances as possible into a physical RAM on the emulation boards. The method also counts the number of physical RAMs necessary to implement the plurality of memory instances. The method maps the memory instances into physical RAMs, and routes the address, data and control signals and controller circuit into a programmable logic chip.
