  • Patent number: 10838769
    Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to finding a service in a service infrastructure. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving a service lookup request, where the service lookup request includes an application program interface (API) specification for a service to be invoked, where the API specification defines at least one target input parameter and at least one target output parameter. The method further includes searching for at least one service that has an API specification that corresponds to the API specification included in the service lookup request. The method further includes determining a sequence of services if no service is found that has an API specification that corresponds to the API specification included in the service lookup request, where services of the sequence of services include API specifications that, in combination, correspond to the API specification included in the service lookup request; and invoking the services of the sequence of services.

  • Patent number: 10838146
    Abstract: A single mode waveguide with a straight portion and a curved portion, the curved portion having the shape of an adiabatic bend. The single mode waveguide has a curved portion that is shaped according to an adiabatic bend, with a curvature that varies continuously, and that vanishes at a point at which the curved portion is contiguous with a straight portion of the waveguide. The absence of curvature discontinuities avoids the coupling, within the waveguide, of optical power from a fundamental mode into a higher order mode and the curvature of the curved portion results in attenuation of optical power, in higher order modes, that may be coupled into the waveguide at either end.

  • Patent number: 10837851
    Abstract: A measurement device for ascertaining a pressure in a measurement volume which receives a fluid or through which fluid flows. The measurement volume is bounded at least sectionally by a side wall and a vibration transducer is arranged on the side wall. The vibration transducer is actuable by a control device of the measurement device to excite a wave that is guided through the side wall. The guided wave is able to be guided through the side wall along a propagation path back to the vibration transducer or to at least one further vibration transducer and it is captured there by the control device in order to ascertain measurement data. The pressure in the measurement volume is then ascertained by the control device in dependence on the measurement data.
