  • VEHICLE CUT-IN THREAT DETECTION AND MITIGATION BETWEEN A LEADER AND FOLLOWER PLATOON
    Publication number: 20240351519
    Abstract: Methods and systems for a vehicle of a remote transportation system. A vehicle includes a non-transitory computer readable media and one or more processors configured by programming instructions on the non-transitory computer readable media to: coordinate a platooning operation between the first vehicle and a second vehicle; monitor an environment of the first vehicle and the second vehicle while platooning; in response to the monitoring, determine a threat level vassociated with a cut-in operation of at least one object within the environment; and selectively activate at least one visual or audio cue based on the threat level to avoid the cut-in operation.

  • Generic interface for numeric types
    Patent number: 8490051
    Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for providing a common generic interface for numeric types in statically typed languages. The common generic interface defines basic arithmetic operations, thereby allowing basic arithmetic operations to be performed on the numeric types. The common generic interface provides support for overflow detection when a result of an operation being performed on a particular numeric type will result in an overflow situation when the operation does not fit within a range supported by the particular numeric types. The common generic interface provides support for one or more mathematical properties to be retrieved for a particular one of the numeric types being used in a particular circumstance.

  • Implicit composition of component bindings
    Patent number: 8307329
    Abstract: Component domains used to define a binding between various components associated with the component domain. The component domain tracks the various services to be imported by each component, and tracks the various services exported by each component. At runtime, rather than at compile time, the various interrelations between the components are bound using the service import and export data. Accordingly, depending on the components available and their characteristics, the bindings may differ. This permits applications to be much more flexible.

  • Observing and reporting changes in complex software dependencies
    Patent number: 8214340
    Abstract: An observation system includes mechanisms for efficiently tracking the state of source components, which include functions, arguments, or values, etc. In one implementation, an observing component requests that a source component processes a request. The observation system then identifies all possible components in a dependency chain for the request, and all such components that are configured for change notifications. A dependency registry stores a representation of each identified component that is configured for change notifications. Any time any component configured for change notifications changes, including indirectly related components, the observing component can be immediately notified of the change, without having to reprocess the entire set of component dependencies.

  • Iterative component binding
    Patent number: 8108831
    Abstract: Component domains used to define a binding between various components associated with the component domain. The component domain tracks the various services to be imported by each component, and tracks the various services exported by each component. At runtime, rather than at compile time, the various interrelations between the components are bound using the service import and export data. Accordingly, depending on the components available and their characteristics, the bindings may differ. This permits applications to be much more flexible. In one implementation, the binding is performed iteratively. For example, if after one iteration of binding service imports to service exports, some components may expand the services that they export, or the services that they desire to import.

  • Tower of numeric types
    Patent number: 7890320
    Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for providing a numeric tower that represents a structure supporting statically defined numeric data types. The numeric data types each are operable to implement a different but accurate representation of a particular value. Numeric operations are supported for the numeric tower that can be performed with any of the statically defined numeric data types. The numeric tower is extensible, and allows for additional statically defined numeric data types to be added, as well as operations. The numeric tower is also operable to detect overflow situations. For example, suppose a result of an operation will result in an overflow situation because the operation does not fit within a range supported by the particular numeric type. The system converts the numeric type to a different one of the numeric data types when the result does not fit within a range supported by the first one.

  • MODE-SPECIFIC CONTAINER RUNTIME ATTACHMENT
    Publication number: 20100088495
    Abstract: The operation of a multi-mode application. The multi-mode application has a number of mode-specific logical containers of components. Each mode-specific container contains components that assist the multi-mode application in operating in a corresponding mode. If the application transitions to another mode, the component(s) of the other corresponding mode-specific logical container is used to assist in operating in the other mode. The logical containers may be activated and deactivated during execution time as the application transitions from mode to mode.

  • Web controls validation
    Patent number: 7451352
    Abstract: Web control validation may be defined using one or more declarations that are included in an ASP+ file by the web page author. The declarations specify server-side objects that validate the input data received in the web page and provide error handling in the event of a validation failure error. Validation declaration parameters specify the validation criteria against which the input data is validated. Example validation operations involve regular expressions, required fields, data comparison, range comparison and custom validation. Validation parameters can also specify either server-side validation or client-side validation, depending on the client browser's capabilities. In a server-side scenario, a server-side validation object processes the input data received in an HTTP request from the client. In a client-side scenario, a server-side validation object renders the appropriate client-side code to validate the input data without a round trip between the client and the server.
