Abstract: A selectively adjustable and lockable utility mount is used to mount a device to a stable structure. The utility mount includes a hydraulic lock that applies the locking force that maintains the locked condition of the utility mount. Mounting brackets for utility mounts have spaced-apart mount elements that engage a surface of a stable structure. Some configurations of mounting bracket include mount elements that are movable between stored conditions and deployed conditions. The stored conditions reduce the size of the device to make it more convenient to pack. A climbing stick uses the storable mount elements.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining that a new software program is in parity with a legacy software program. In some aspects, the system receives information for multiple threads processed by a legacy software program. The system processes the information using the new software program, which is executed in parallel with the legacy software program. If an output of a particular thread from the new software program varies outside a threshold distance from a corresponding output for the thread from the legacy software program, the system ceases further processing of the particular thread by the new software program. Otherwise, the system allows processing of the particular thread by the new software program to continue.

Abstract: Routes may be presented to a vehicle operator with information about predicted autonomous driving levels. A road network route to a destination is received. The road network route is partitioned into segments. Indicia of the segments are provided to an inference engine. The inference engine predicts levels of autonomous driving for the respective segments generated by the inference engine based on the indicia of the segments. Based on the predicted levels of autonomous driving for the respective segments, a ratio of a level of autonomous driving for the road network route is computed. The ratio corresponds to a proportion of time and/or distance for the road network route during which a driver-system is predicted to be engaged at the level of autonomous driving. A user interface is displayed, which includes a graphic representation of the road network route and a graphic indication of the ratio.

Abstract: A system and a method of offloading and migrating management controller functionalities using containerized services are provided. Specifically, a computing device may request a container image from a container management system by sending an instruction to the container management system to select a group of management functionalities to be provided in the container image. In response to receiving the instruction, the container management system retrieves a corresponding group of the services corresponding to the selected group of management functionalities, and creates the container image using the retrieved services. Upon receiving a request from the computing device for the container image, the container management system sends the container image to the computing device, such that the container image may be executed on the computing device to provide a virtual management device thereon. The container image is also capable of being migrated from the computing device to another computing device.
