Abstract: An apparatus includes an interface, a capacity engine, a monitoring engine, and a purging engine. The interface receives a request to repair a cache. The capacity engine monitors a cache to determine a first amount of data the cache receives in a first predetermined amount of time. The capacity engine determines a second amount of data indicating an estimated amount of data the cache will receive in a second predetermined amount of time. The capacity engine determines a size of the cache and a maximum size threshold using the second amount of data. The monitoring engine determines an available capacity of the cache and that the available capacity is less than or equal to the maximum size threshold. The purging engine purges data from the cache.

Abstract: A drone docking system is disclosed that is connected to a drone. The drone docking system has a positioning member that connects to the drone and is configured to rotate the angle of the drone from a generally horizontal position to a generally vertical position. Connected to the positioning member is a charging member, which in one embodiment has a charging prong. The charging member is configured to connect to a power source, such as one located on existing infrastructure, e.g., a street light. A connection member is connected to the charging member. The connection member engages existing infrastructure to hold the drone in place. In one arrangement, the connection member has a pair of arcuate arms that receive, retain, and hold onto the existing infrastructure. In one example, the pair of arcuate arms are spring biased to apply a gripping pressure on the existing infrastructure.

Abstract: A cache repair tool includes an interface, a monitoring engine, and a purging engine. The interface receives a request to repair a cache. The request includes a maximum size threshold less than a total storage capacity of the cache. The request includes an identification of a data type. The monitoring engine determines an available capacity of the cache. The monitoring engine determines that the available capacity is less than or equal to the maximum size threshold. The purging engine purges data of the identified data type from the cache in response to the determination that the determined size exceeds the maximum size threshold.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided in a computing device configured with instructions executing on a processor of the computing device to implement a ground truth generation system for quality assessment scoring of articles in a corpus. The ground truth generation system receives recommendations of a set of recommended articles from subject matter experts. The ground truth generation system identifies a set of non-recommended articles. A topic clustering component within the ground truth generation system performs topic clustering on a combination of the set of recommended articles and the set of non-recommended articles to form a set of topic clusters containing recommended articles and non-recommended articles. The ground truth generation system identifies a first number of recommended articles and a second number of non-recommended articles in each of the set of topic clusters to form a quality assessment training set.

Abstract: In an approach to content selection, one or more computer processors receive a first query from a user. The one or more computer processors retrieve a first response for the first query. The one or more computer processors determine whether the first response exceeds a threshold for a policy for content usage associated with the first response, wherein the policy for content usage specifies one or more restrictions for usage of a content asset. In response to determining the first response exceeds the threshold for the policy for content usage, the one or more computer processors select a first subset of the first response to meet the threshold for the policy for content usage. The one or more computer processors send the first subset of the first response to the user.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for optimizing automobile traffic flow through an intersection by detecting and reducing platoon interference. One method, performed in a computer product, includes steps of identifying a cluster in traffic information of a cycle of a traffic signal, determining that the cluster qualifies as an upstream platoon, calculating properties of the platoon, and generating an Enhanced Purdue Coordination Diagram (EPCD) for the cycle based on the calculated properties of the platoon. Another method includes obtaining, by a computer device, traffic information corresponding to an intersection; determining, by the computer device, platoon properties of the traffic information corresponding to each cycle of a traffic signal; and calculating, by the computer device, a timing change to make to the traffic signal to improve traffic flow through the intersection, the timing change being based on the platoon properties.

Abstract: The invention provides a green process for direct oxidation of a large number of substituted or unsubstituted cinnamaldehydes or cinnamyl alcohols into the corresponding alkyl or aryl cinnamates in one step. The process of the present invention is a convenient and efficient green process for the preparation of various aryl or alkyl cinnamates under conventional, microwave and ultrasound directly from cinnamaldehydes or cinnamyl alcohols in the presence of an oxidizing agent, catalyst and an alcohol, with or without an organic solvent. These esters are immensely important compounds in flavor, perfumery and pharmaceutical industries. There are several prior arts available for the preparation of cinnamic esters, but all of them suffer from deficiencies such as use of expensive reagents and catalysts, harsh reaction conditions, use of toxic chemicals and others.
