Abstract: A method of efficiently extracting large data sets from a database may include receiving a first result set from a first query executed on one or more data sources. The one or more data sources may use a first schema when the first query was executed. The method may also include receiving a second result set from a second query executed on the one or more data sources. The one or more data sources may use a second schema when the second query was executed. The method may further include generating a view that combines the first result set and the second result set. The view may resolve differences between the first schema and the second schema.

Abstract: A method of efficiently extracting large data sets from a database includes receiving a query to be executed on a first view of one or more data sources, where previous result sets resulting from previous queries are stored separately from the one or more data sources. The method also includes receiving a current result set from the one or more data sources that is responsive to the query, where the query is reformatted before it is executed such that the result set does not overlap with the previous result sets. The method additionally includes generating a second view that combines the current result set and the one or more previous result sets, where the second view resolves changes in a schema of the one or data sources between when the previous result sets were received and when the current result set is received.

Abstract: A compressor that includes a frame, a rotor assembly, and a heat sink assembly. The rotor assembly includes a bearing assembly to which the heat sink assembly is secured. The compressor is configured such that, during use, air is drawn through the interior of the frame. The heat sink assembly then extends radially from the bearing assembly into the air path through the frame such that the air flows over the heat sink assembly.

Abstract: A method of operation of a social filter system includes: identifying a user with a user account; identifying a socially connected account from the user account, the socially connected account having a social association; selecting a content of interest from a content store of contents of interest based on the social association; and sending the content of interest for displaying on a user device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus, system or method for reducing pressure in a gas flow for a gas let-down system. The present invention further relates to an apparatus, system or method for drying gas. A system (10) for reducing pressure in a gas flow for a gas let-down system comprises an expander (102) driven by gas at a first pressure expanding to a second pressure, and a compressor (104) for compressing the gas from the second pressure to a third pressure, whereby the third pressure is lower than the first pressure and the third pressure is higher than the second pressure. By first expanding the gas and then compressing the gas the intermediate temperature of the gas at the second pressure is lower than if the gas is expanded directly to the third pressure.

Abstract: An approach for reconciling a data warehouse includes automatically identifying, based upon a change made to a definition of an object, one or more other objects in the data warehouse that are affected by the change made to the definition of the object. The object and the other objects may be any type or form of data, for example, database tables or routines, and the invention is not limited to any particular type of object. Dependency analysis is used to evaluate dependency data to identify the one or more other objects affected by the change made to the definition of the object. The dependency data specifies dependencies between the object and the one or more other objects. The dependency data may also specify dependencies between the one or more other objects. As described in more detail hereinafter, the dependency data used may vary depending upon a particular function to be performed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for transferring, processing and displaying multiple images using a single transfer request such as a Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) transfer request are disclosed. The method may generally include requesting a document, e.g., an HTML document, that references a composite image containing multiple image portions, splitting the composite image into the multiple image portions, determining a layout of the image portions in a client browser, e.g., a web page browser, and laying out the image portions in the client browser according to the determined layout. The splitting of the composite image into the multiple image portions may utilize Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), e.g., using a CSS clip function for each image portion, and may use absolute positioning of the image portions within the composite image. The determining the layout and the laying out of the multiple image portions may be implemented utilizing JavaScript.

Abstract: A method for determining the dependencies between objects in a system is provided. Determining the dependencies between objects involves analyzing data about the objects and applying rules to the data about the objects. According to one embodiment, a first set of dependencies between a plurality of objects may be based on data in a set of sources and dependency rules, whereas a second set of dependencies between the plurality of objects may be based on data from a different set of sources but the same dependency rules. According to another embodiment, a first set of dependencies between a plurality of objects may be based on data in a set of sources and dependency rules, whereas a second set of dependencies between the plurality of objects is based on data from the same set of sources but different dependency rules.
