Abstract: Systems, techniques, and articles are described herein for workload shifting in a database system. A computer system is configured to provide a database system and includes one or more processors, a primary database system implemented by the one or more processors, and a secondary database system implemented by the one or more processors. The secondary database system is configured as a hot-standby system for the primary database system and is capable of providing at least a minimum amount of essential functionality of the primary database system during a disruption. The primary database system is configured by programming instructions, executable on the computer system, to cause the one or more processors to determine from a query request from a client application directed to the primary database system that workload from a query may be shifted to the secondary database system and instruct the client application to execute the query.

Abstract: A three-dimensional printing control apparatus comprises a control command generator configured to: generate a control command for outputting a three-dimensional object having a first shape, and generate, in response to a request for changing a shape of the three-dimensional object from the first shape to a second shape is received while performing a output work for the three-dimensional object, an additional control command for outputting a changed three-dimensional object having the second shape; and a control command transmitter configured to, in response to determining that it is possible to output the changed three-dimensional object through the output work, substitute the additional control command for the control command with respect to a non-printed portion of the three-dimensional object.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling 3D printing includes an output determiner configured to determine, after generating a first control command to output a 3D object, whether an additional 3D object is able to be output through an output task for the 3D object, and a control command generator configured to generate a second control command to output a not-yet-output part of the 3D object and the additional 3D object if it is determined that the additional 3D object is able to be output through the output task.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for tracking an object using a feature descriptor and an apparatus and method for removing a garbage feature are disclosed. A feature descriptor generation unit generates a plurality of features descriptors indicating information of a plurality of features extracted from an input image from which an object of interest is desired to be detected. A matching unit matches the feature descriptors with feature descriptors of a target object stored in advance, and determines the feature descriptors of the object of interest corresponding to the target object. A feature point removal unit removes feature descriptors that do not meet a geometric comparison condition from among the feature descriptors of the object of interest, and establishes final feature descriptors of the object of interest.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and method for control of 3D printing. The apparatus includes a color data generation unit configured to generate entity-specific color data representing a color of each entity forming a 3D object based on modeling information about the 3D object, a color quantization unit configured to convert the entity-specific color data to represent one of a plurality of output-able colors as the color of each entity, and an output file generation unit configured to generate an output file to be used for output of the 3D object from the modeling information and the converted entity-specific color data.
