Abstract: Techniques are provided for compression and decompression of log data. An exemplary method comprises: obtaining a log message, wherein the log message comprises a message template and one or more message variables; obtaining a compression index that maps a plurality of message templates to a corresponding message signature; and writing the one or more message variables and a message signature corresponding to the message template of the log message to a log file. A counter may be maintained for each of a plurality of distinct message templates, and a given message signature may be assigned to a particular message template based on a length of the given message signature and a frequency of occurrence of the particular message template. The compression index comprises, for example, a key/value database where the message templates are keys and the corresponding message signatures are values of the key/value database. A decompression index maps message signatures to corresponding message templates.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for arranging dimples on a golf ball surface in which the dimples are arranged in a pattern derived from at least one irregular domain generated from a regular or non-regular polyhedron. The method includes choosing control points of a polyhedron, generating an irregular domain based on those control points, packing the irregular domain with dimples, and tessellating the irregular domain to cover the surface of the golf ball. The control points include the center of a polyhedral face, a vertex of the polyhedron, a midpoint or other point on an edge of the polyhedron and others. The method ensures that the symmetry of the underlying polyhedron is preserved while minimizing or eliminating great circles due to parting lines.
