Abstract: Row-level security (RLS) may provide fine-grained access control based on flexible, user-defined access policies to databases, tables, objects, and other data structures. A RLS policy may be an entity or object that defines rules for row access. A RLS policy may be decoupled or independent from any specific table. This allows more robust and flexible control. A RLS policy may then be attached to one or more tables. The RLS policy may include a Boolean-valued expression.

Abstract: A noisy aggregation constraint system receives a query for a shared dataset, where the query identifies an operation. The noisy aggregation constraint system accesses a set of data from the shared dataset to perform the operation, the set of data comprises data accessed from a table of the shared dataset. The system determines that an aggregation constraint policy is attached to the table, the policy restricts output of data values stored in the table. Based on the context of the query, the system determines that the aggregation constraint policy should be enforced in relation to the query. The system assigns a specified noise level to the shared dataset and generates an output based on the set of data and the operation; the output comprises data values added to the table based on the specified noise level.

Abstract: The invention provides a passive fluidics circuit for directing different fluids to a common volume, such as a reaction chamber or flow cell, without intermixing or cross contamination. The direction and rate of flow through junctions, nodes and passages of the fluidics circuit are controlled by the states of upstream valves (e.g. opened or closed), differential fluid pressures at circuit inlets or upstream reservoirs, flow path resistances, and the like. Free diffusion or leakage of fluids from unselected inlets into the common outlet or other inlets at junctions or nodes is prevented by the flow of the selected inlet fluid, a portion of which sweeps by the inlets of unselected fluids and exits the fluidics circuit by waste ports, thereby creating a barrier against undesired intermixing with the outlet flow through leakage or diffusion.
