Abstract: A method calculates an excavation volume that was excavated by a construction machine using a tool. A motion trajectory of the tool over time is determined using one or more of the following sensors: inertial measurement unit, angle sensors, and linear sensors. At least part of the motion trajectory is classified based on machine load data as an excavation trajectory during which excavation occurs. The excavation volume is calculated using the excavation trajectory and dimensions of the tool.

Abstract: A method is for putting down a tool of a construction machine. A position and an orientation of the tool relative to the construction machine or to a direction of Earth's gravity is determined by one or more of the following sensors including: an inertial measuring unit, an angle sensor, a linear sensor, and/or by an algorithm for determining a kinematic chain of the construction machine. Moreover, an orientation of at least one part of the construction machine, which part touches the ground, and which orientation characterizes an orientation of the construction machine relative to the ground, is determined relative to Earth's gravity. Based on this determination, movement of the tool is controlled, in order to bring a lower face of the tool to the same level and in the same orientation as the at least one part touching the ground, for putting down the tool.

Abstract: A method for routing trace messages during an execution of a data processing pipeline is provided. The method may include receiving, at a master node, a request from a client to receive trace messages output by a worker node executing at least a portion of the data processing pipeline. The master node and the worker node may be part of a distributed cluster of computing nodes. The trace messages may correspond to events occurring during the execution of at least the portion of the data processing pipeline. The master node may respond to the request by subscribing to a trace stream published by the worker node. The trace stream may include the trace messages output by the worker node. The master node may generate a user interface for displaying, at the client, the trace messages. Related systems and articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also provided.
