  • Publication number: 20230407907
    Abstract: A multi-pivot timing chain comprises first timing links in a first timing chain layer coupled together via meshing gear teeth, and second timing links in a second timing chain layer coupled together via meshing gear teeth. Pins rotatably couple the first timing links to the second timing links. Each of the timing links comprises opposing first and second gear portions comprising gear teeth, and first and second flexures connecting the two gear portions. The flexures are in tension and configured to cause a pair of meshing gear teeth in an adjacent timing chain layer to be in compression, thereby creating resistance to rotation of the timing links that comprise the meshing gear teeth.

  • Publication number: 20230409565
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a transaction request associated with a first transaction identifier may be obtained. A first database may be accessed to store a transaction entry in the first database based on the transaction request. A reversed key may be generated by reversing the first transaction identifier. A second database may be accessed to determine whether the second database comprises any records indexed by the reversed key. An aggregation record comprising the first value may be generated in the second database. In some embodiments, a second transaction identifier of an update message for the first database may be reversed to reconstruct the reversed key, and the second database may be searched with the reversed key to retrieve the aggregation record. The aggregation record may be updated based on the second value and sent to a destination after updating the aggregation record with the second value.

  • Publication number: 20230409217
    Abstract: The present concepts relate to contiguously writing data blocks of a data group in storage media in a one-step writing operation without defragmenting. A host may assign a group identifier to the data group, tag the data blocks in the data group with the group identifier, and send the data blocks to a storage controller. In turn, the storage controller may receive the data blocks that are tagged with the common group identifier, and contiguously write the data blocks in contiguous free space in the storage media. As such, reading the data group from the storage media may be performed faster than if the data group has been allowed to be written with fragmentation. The present concepts may also avoid the costs associated with a two-step writing operation that involves defragmenting.
