Abstract: A laser module includes a gain chip, temperature sensors, a case, and a thermoelectric cooler (TEC). The gain chip emits a laser beam. One of the temperature sensors measures a first temperature of the gain chip and is encompassed by the gain chip. The other temperature sensor is adhered to the case and measures a second temperature. The TEC tunes the laser beam emitted by the gain chip to a desired wavelength by varying the first temperature of the gain chip through a set of third temperatures for various values of the second temperature. The set of third temperatures is selected from various values of the first temperature such that the laser beam emitted at the set of third temperatures is mode-hop free.

Abstract: A superluminescent light emitting diode (SLED) includes an active layer that includes a set of mixed strain quantum wells. The set of mixed strain quantum wells includes a set of compressive strained quantum wells and a set of tensile strained quantum wells. A potential difference applied across the SLED causes movement of electron carriers and hole carriers towards the active layer. Radiative recombination of electron and hole pairs in the set of compressive strained quantum wells enables emission of laterally polarized light and radiative recombination of electron and hole pairs in the set of tensile strained quantum wells enables emission of vertically polarized light. A combination of the laterally polarized light and vertically polarized light results in the emission of incoherent light from the SLED.

Abstract: A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) includes various mode field adapters (MFAs), a waveguide, and various contact pads. All the MFAs are on a same facet of the PIC. One MFA of the PIC outputs a first optical signal that is an amplified version of a second optical signal. The waveguide is divided into two waveguide arms and a bend portion to join the two waveguide arms. The waveguide extends between the MFAs such that the second optical signal propagates through the waveguide. Further, each waveguide arm is formed between the contact pads. The second optical signal propagating through the waveguide is amplified based on a current that is injected in the PIC by way of the contact pads.

Abstract: Techniques for tracking large numbers of moving objects in an event processing system are provided. An input event stream can be received, where the events in the input event stream represent the movement of a plurality of geometries or objects. The input event stream can then be partitioned among a number of processing nodes of the event processing system, thereby enabling parallel processing of one or more continuous queries for tracking the objects. The partitioning can be performed such that each processing node is configured to track objects in a predefined spatial region, and the spatial regions for at least two nodes overlap. This overlapping window enables a single node to find, e.g., all of the objects within a particular distance of a target object, even if the target object is in the process of moving from the region of that node to the overlapping region of another node.

Abstract: A virtual machine transmits local files to a secure virtual machine hosted by a hypervisor for malware detection. When malware is detected, the secure virtual machine can responsively provide remediation code to the virtual machine on a temporary basis so that the virtual machine can perform suitable remediation without a permanent increase in size of the virtual machine.

Abstract: A method including receiving, at a computer system, debugging configuration information specifying a functional area of a data stream processing server to be debugged, is described. Furthermore, the method includes identifying, by the computer system, an object associated with the functional area that has been instantiated by the data stream processing server, determining, by the computer system, that tracing for the object is enabled to perform the debugging, and instantiating, by the computer system, a tracelet associated with the object. Further, the method includes stepping, by the computer system, through the tracelet associated with the object to debug the object, and displaying, by the computer system, a visual representation of debugging results associated with the object.
