Abstract: First information for a first event of a computer system is captured, including first event parameters. A first event key is generated, based on the first event parameters. The first information and first key are both stored as a first event in a storage structure, in which the first event key indexes the first event and the captured first information. When second information is captured for a second event, a second event key is generated based on second event parameters of the captured second event. If the second event key matches the first event key, then the first event stored in the event collection system is dynamically updated to store the second event information as part of the first event, to minimize additional storage space needed in the storage structure for the second event.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, Lube Oil Controlled Ignition (LOCI) Engine Combustion overcomes the drawbacks of known combustion technologies. First, lubricating oil is already part of any combustion engine; hence, there is no need to carry a secondary fuel and to have to depend on an additional fuel system as in the case of dual-fuel technologies. Second, the ignition and the start of combustion rely on the controlled autoignition of the lubricating oil preventing the occurrence of abnormal combustion as experienced with the Spark Ignition technology. Third, LOCI combustion is characterized by the traveling of a premixed flame; hence, it has a controllable duration resulting in a wide engine load-speed window unlike the Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition technology where the engine load-speed window is narrow. Adaptive Intake Valve Closure may be used to control in-cylinder compression temperature to be high enough to realize the consistent auto ignition of the lubricating oil mist.

Abstract: To determine an impression metric for an organization, a server device generates a statistical model for estimating the impression metric using machine learning techniques. The server device obtains training data for the statistical model by randomly selecting geographic locations within a geographic area and determining the number of users eligible to receive a particular type of advertisement for each randomly selected geographic location. For example, a user may be deemed eligible when displaying the geographic location via a mapping application. When an organization requests an estimate of a number of impressions for an advertising campaign, the server device applies data included in the request (e.g., the time period for the advertising campaign, the number of organization locations, identifiers for the organization locations such as geographic coordinates or an address, etc.) to the statistical model to estimate an impression metric for the organization.

Abstract: A reinforced feeder housing for an agricultural machine includes a housing body having a top surface, a bottom surface, and two opposing side surfaces each extending between the top and bottom surfaces. The housing body includes a front opening through which crop material is directed into the feeder housing from a header of the agricultural machine, and a rear opening that is substantially opposite the front opening through which crop is expelled from the feeder housing and is delivered to a threshing mechanism of the agricultural machine. Various panels of the housing body are reinforced to improve the structural integrity of the feeder housing and prevent damage to the welds in the housing body.
