  • Patent number: 12761948
    Abstract: The present application discloses a method, system, and computer system for automatically scaling task-processing capacity. The method includes obtaining input data from one or more data sources, determining, by a data layer, a set of the input data to process, obtaining a current measure of queued tasks and/or a task-processing capacity, determining a set of tasks to process based at least in part on the set of the input data to process, and automatically scaling the task-processing capacity based at least in part on (i) the current measure of the queued tasks, a measure of the task-processing capacity, and/or a measure of utilization of the task-processing capacity, and (ii) the set of tasks to process.

  • Publication number: 20260300399
    Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method receives, via a communication interface from a client device, an indication to generate a data processing pipeline. The pipeline includes a set of operations configured to read an input dataset from a storage location and to transform the input dataset into a result dataset. The set of operations is irrespective of a dependency order and at least one operation indicates an expectation describing a property that data associated with the operation is expected to possess. Dependencies between the set of operations are determined, and a directed acyclic graph representing the dependencies is generated, including an expectation enforcement node. A dataflow graph is created based on the directed acyclic graph and verified for correctness without materializing datasets associated with the set of operations. The verified dataflow graph is deployed by connecting source nodes to data sources, executed in a selected execution mode, and further processing.

  • Patent number: 12350438
    Abstract: A ventilator (100) ventilates a patient (102) by a high-flow oxygen therapy via a tube system (104). The ventilator has at least one sensor element (110), at least one actuatable inhalation valve or exhalation valve (120) and a control unit (130). The sensor element is arranged and configured to determine and to output a measured variable (112) within the tube system. The measured variable indicates a gas flow within the tube system. The actuatable inhalation valve or exhalation valve is arranged and configured to make possible a flow of a breathing gas from a ventilation circuit (107) of the ventilator. The control unit regulates a ventilation pressure provided by the ventilator via the at least one sensor element and the at least one inhalation valve or exhalation valve such that a predefined maximum pressure is not exceeded in a predefined area (140) of the tube system.
