  • Patent number: 12229147
    Abstract: A query is received. It is determined that the query does not fit a profile for a run-the-business set of queries, where the profile for the run-the-business set of queries excludes queries that are not routine parts of running a business and that do not require priority processing. The query is executed with a dynamically-created compute capacity that is not part of a compute capacity used to run the run-the-business set of queries.

  • Publication number: 20180165914
    Abstract: A method and system for facilitating the transfer of game or virtual reality (VR) state information is disclosed herein. An Event Pattern Detection engine may receive a periodic update of a game/VR state of a Source Game/VR Client and detect a trigger for transfer of the game/VR state based on the periodic update. The Event Pattern Detection engine may then send a message for transfer of the game/VR state to a Game/VR State Transfer Engine. The Game/VR State Transfer Engine may send a request for the game/VR state to a Game/VR Server and may receive the game/VR state from the Game/VR Server. The Game/VR State Transfer Engine may send the game/VR state to a Destination Game/VR Client and receive a confirmation of the receipt of the game/VR state by the Destination Game/VR Client. The Game/VR State Transfer Engine may send a Game/VR State Transfer Complete message to the Game/VR Server.

  • Patent number: 9618909
    Abstract: A system, method, and safety unit provide safety assurance for a multiple redundant system controlling a plant or complex. A unit active line (UAL) status indicates the presence of at least one redundant active unit within the system. A safety verification line (SVL) status verifies the powered down status of all redundant units not active within the system. A safety unit is associated with a vital supervision card (VSC) and vital power bus and the safety unit controls switchable connections from the vital power bus to the UAL and the SVL. Based on verification of UAL and SVL status, system control includes energizing the UAL.

  • Patent number: 8585273
    Abstract: Illumination assemblies, components, and related methods are described. An illumination assembly can include at least one solid state light-emitting device, and at least one light guide including a light homogenization region configured to receive light emitted by the solid state light-emitting device and including a light output boundary.

  • Patent number: 7773582
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing dynamic Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) endpoint mapping is presented. At least one on net endpoint of a VOIP call is determined. An endpoint data structure is used to store, for each on net endpoint of the call, a key and at least one of an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the end point, a phone number associated with the endpoint, and/or a display name associated with the endpoint. The endpoint data structure is used to correlate call legs across a network. Heuristics of the VOIP call are determined, the heuristics including information relating to the main source call leg and the main destination call leg.

  • Patent number: 7526054
    Abstract: An apparatus, method, and article to dynamically adjust a data signal using a regenerated clock signal in an emulator to increase communication speed between the emulator and the evaluation board is disclosed. In one embodiment, this is achieved by applying a reference clock signal at a predetermined frequency to a digital circuit. A delayed return data signal is then sampled from the digital circuit. The sampled delayed return data signal is then compared to an expected return data signal. The delayed return data signal is then adjusted as a function of the comparison to increase the communication speed between the emulator and the evaluation board.

  • Publication number: 20080306986
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide apparatuses, computer media, and methods for obtaining a rule component from a legacy application and subsequently generating an intermediate state expression from a legacy rule of the rule component. The intermediate state expression is converted to a target rule, which is utilized by the target application. Also, a data component is obtained from the legacy application, and an intermediate data element is generated from a legacy data element. The intermediate data element is converted to a target data element that may be accessed by the target application when executing the target rule. A vocabulary item is extracted from the rule component. The vocabulary item is aggregated with the intermediate state expression to form the target rule. The target rule is subsequently deployed to the target application.
