Abstract: A system and method for automatic recovery from a failure in a robotic assembly operation using multiple sensor input. Moreover, following detection of an error in an assembly operation from data provided by a first sensor, a recovery plan can be executed, and, if successful, a reattempt at the failed assembly operation can commence. The assembly stage during which the error occurred can be detected by a second sensor that is different from the first sensor. Identification of the assembly stage can assist with determining the recovery plan, as well as identifying the assembly operation that is to be reattempted. The failure can be detected by comparing information obtained from a sensor, such as, for example, a force signature, with corresponding historical information, including historical information obtained at the identified assembly stage for prior workpieces.

Abstract: System and method for writing updated versions of a configuration data file for a distributed file system in a storage system uses a directory renaming operation to write a new updated version of the configuration data file using the latest version of the configuration data file and a target directory. After the latest version of the configuration data file is modified by a particular host computer in the storage system, the modified configuration data file is written to a temporary file. The directory naming operation is then initiated on the temporary file to change the directory for the temporary file to the target directory. If the directory renaming operation has failed, a retry is performed by the particular host computer to write the new updated version of the configuration data file using a new latest version and a new target directory.
