  • Patent number: 11933527
    Abstract: A cooling system drains oil from low side heat exchangers to vessels and then uses compressed refrigerant to push the oil in the vessels back towards a compressor. Generally, the cooling system operates in three different modes of operation: a normal mode, an oil drain mode, and an oil return mode. During the normal mode, a primary refrigerant is cycled to cool one or more secondary refrigerants. As the primary refrigerant is cycled, oil from a compressor may mix with the primary refrigerant and become stuck in a low side heat exchanger. During the oil drain mode, the oil in the low side heat exchanger is allowed to drain into a vessel. During the oil return mode, compressed refrigerant is directed to the vessel to push the oil in the vessel back towards a compressor.

  • Patent number: 11934874
    Abstract: A serverless query processing system receives a query and determines whether the query is a recurring query or a non-recurring query. The system may predict, in response to determining that the query is the recurring query, a peak resource requirement during an execution of the query. The system may compute, in response to determining that the query is the non-recurring query, a tight resource requirement corresponding to an amount of resources that satisfy a performance requirement over the execution of the query, where the tight resource requirement is less than the peak resource requirement. The system allocates resources to the query based on an applicable one of the peak resource requirement or the tight resource requirement. The system then starts the execution of the query using the resources.

  • Patent number: 11933608
    Abstract: A method for identifying three entangled photons includes generating a set of first, second, and third entangled photons correlated in time and interfering the first and second entangled photons based on a difference between a first optical path from an output of an optical source that generates the first entangled photon to a first optical input to an interferometric beam splitter and a second optical path from an output of the optical source that generates the second entangled photon to a second input of the interferometric beam splitter. A first electrical signal is generated in response to detection of a first photon generated by the interfering of the first and second entangled photons. A second electrical signal is generated in response to detection of a second photon generated by the interfering of the first and second entangled photons. A third electrical signal is generated in response to detection of the third entangled photon.
