Abstract: The present technology provides a low latency stateful serverless networking protocol to support persistent multiplayer state synchronization. The fundamental system is a key-value data store that uses transactions to ensure state coherency synchronized across many clients. Each client subscribes to state updates as well as orchestrates state writes by attempting to lock and write the next available key and then assumes that its state update will succeed to reduce perceived latency. If the key was incorrectly assumed to be submitted in the right order, the client rolls back its assumption and tries the process again.

Abstract: A cloud-based operating-system-event and data-access monitoring method includes collecting event information from a monitored cloud-based element. One or more structured event payloads based on the event information is then generated. The structured event payloads that produce one or more validated event collections are then validated. The one or more validated event collections are then serialized and filtered to remove redundant structured event payload data. The filtered validated structured event payloads are then de-serialized to produce a time-sequenced, ordered event stream. The time-sequenced, ordered event stream is de-duplicated to remove duplicate structured event payloads. The time-sequenced ordered event stream is then processed to generate processed information security results.

Abstract: A transport system for transport of specimens in a medical or chemical analysis laboratory. The system includes a transport track predefining travel paths, and at least one self-propelled transport carriage configured to moving along the travel paths. The carriage has a specimen receptacle, four wheels driven by an electric motor, an electrical energy store for providing power to a motor drive, and a motor drive controller. The carriage wheels are arranged on two axes aligned parallel to one another, with only the wheels of a first axle being driven. Each wheel of the driven axle is connected to a dedicated electric motor drive and is driven at a rotational speed individually predefined by the controller. Longitudinal grooves are routed along the travel paths in the transport track and a guide projection protruding from the underside of the carriage engages in the longitudinal grooves.

Abstract: A burr removal tool for preparing a pipe for soldering includes a cylinder that has a pair of wells each recessed into opposing ends of the cylinder for insertably receiving an end of a pipe. The cylinder has a plurality of first bristles each disposed within a respective one of the wells. The plurality of first bristles in a respective one of the wells scrubs the pipe when the pipe is inserted into the respective well for abrading burrs from the pipe. A pair of brushes is each coupled to and extends away from the cylinder thereby facilitating a respective one of the brushes to be inserted into the pipe for scrubbing inside of the pipe. Additionally, each of the brushes is perpendicularly oriented with the pair of wells in the cylinder.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a training station for surgical procedures comprising a model of an anatomical structure, a three-dimensional digital model of the anatomical structure and a work base.

The model management system identifies available versions of the model object based on the model key.

Abstract: The disclosed technology is generally directed to graph queries with reduced latencies. In one example of the technology, there is a cross-tenancy collaboration between two different tenancies: a first tenancy that is homed in a first geographical region and a second tenancy that is homed in a second geographical region. In the first geographical region, a first set of graph data is stored. The first set of the graph data is associated with the first tenancy. A portion of the first set of the graph data to be copied from the first geographical region to the second geographical region is determined. In response to determining the portion of the first set of the graph data, a copy of the portion of the first set of the graph data is stored in the second geographical region.
