  • Patent number: 11551560
    Abstract: Examples for flight navigation determination are presented herein. An example may involve obtaining a target destination for an aircraft and determining an initial flight path between a current location and the target destination. The flight path may include a series of waypoints for guiding navigation. The example may further involve obtaining terrain information that represents elevations of obstacles along the initial flight path and modifying the initial flight path to generate a revised flight path using the terrain information. The revised flight path may include modifications to the series of waypoints of the initial flight path such that navigation of the revised flight path avoids obstacles positioned along the initial flight path. The obstacles may have an elevation that exceeds an adjustable threshold elevation that depends on the initial flight path. The example may further involve providing the revised flight path to a navigation system of the aircraft.

  • Patent number: 11549069
    Abstract: A process for hydroprocessing a hydrocarbon feed of the present disclosure includes contacting the hydrocarbon feed with hydrogen in the presence of at least one hydroprocessing catalyst in a two-phase hydroprocessing unit, where the at least one hydroprocessing catalyst is a solid catalyst and contacting produces a hydroprocessed effluent having a reduced concentration of one or more of metals, nitrogen, sulfur, aromatic compounds, or combinations of these. The process further includes combining the hydroprocessed effluent with make-up hydrogen downstream of the two-phase hydroprocessing unit to produce a hydrogen saturated hydroprocessed effluent, separating the hydrogen saturated hydroprocessed effluent in a separation system to produce a hydrogen-saturated high-pressure bottom stream, a hydroprocessed product stream, and a gaseous effluent, and passing at least a portion of the hydrogen-saturated high-pressure bottom stream back to the two-phase hydroprocessing unit.

  • Patent number: 11550850
    Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards quasi-listing table entries that facilitate the efficient return of an object list in response to a query for relevant objects in a data storage system. A quasi-listing table entry is created when an object is created, and subsequently converted to a normal listing table entry. A normal listing table entry is converted to a quasi-listing table entry when an object is deleted, with the quasi-listing table entry subsequently deleted. When an object list request is received, a normal listing table entry can be used directly to add to the object list; only if a quasi-listing table entry is encountered (before it can be converted or deleted) does the object table need to be accessed to determine if the object actually exists. This eliminates most object table accesses, including those in remote geographic zones, thereby making object listing significantly more efficient.

  • Patent number: 11551106
    Abstract: Systems and methods include a method for providing recommendations and advisories associated with a facility. Source data is received in real-time from disparate sources and in disparate formats. The source data provides information about a facility and external systems with which the facility interacts. The source data is aggregated to form ontological frameworks. Each ontological framework models a category of components selected from components of a Things category, components of an Events category, and components of a Methods category. An abstraction layer is created based on the ontological frameworks. The abstraction layer includes abstractions that support queries, ontologies, metadata, and data mapping. A knowledge discovery layer for discovering knowledge from the abstraction layers is provided.
