Abstract: A network computer system operates to mitigate failures for a network service. The network computer system can generate a data path model for the network service, where the data path model identifies a probabilistic set of expectations with respect to the programs and program sequences which handle service requests for the network service. The data path models can be used to detect, analyze or mitigate service request failures of the network service.

Abstract: A method for partially publishing edits to a document is described. A first document including a first cell and a second cell is displayed on first user account on a first computing device and on a second user account. A second document including a linked version of the first cell and a linked version of the second cell is displayed. An edit of the first cell is received from the first user account and an edit of the second cell is received. In response to receiving an indication from the first user account that the edit of the first cell is to be published, the edit of the first cell is made to the linked version of the first cell, while the linked version of the second cell is unchanged so that the content of the linked version of the second cell no longer matches that of the second cell.

Abstract: A LIDAR system includes a laser source, a first scanner, and a second scanner.

Abstract: A reactor safety device includes a leg and a well. The leg includes an inlet and an outlet. The inlet is in fluid communication with an outlet of a reactor configured to operate at a pressure less than atmospheric pressure at a location of the reactor safety device. The well includes an inlet in fluid communication with the outlet of the leg. There is a first level in the leg and a second level in the well. The outlet of the leg is vertically lower than the second level. A level sensor is configured to monitor the first level and a controller in communication with the level sensor, a fuel inlet into the reactor, and an oxidant inlet into the reactor. The controller is configured to close the fuel inlet and the oxidant inlet when the first level changes by a predetermined amount.

Abstract: A light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensor system includes a window, a laser source configured to generate a beam, one or more scanning optics configured to output the beam through the window, and a sensor. The sensor includes at least one light emitter configured to output light associated with a parameter different than a corresponding parameter of the beam, a first optic coupled to the window, the first optic configured to receive the light from the light emitter and provide the light into the window to undergo total internal reflection in the window, a second optic coupled to the window, the second optic configured to receive the light provided into the window by the first optic, and a detector configured to receive the light from the second optic and output a signal indicative of a presence of an obscurant on the window.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for avoidance of damage to concealed mechanical elements during construction or repair of a structure. In one embodiment, a tag is provided for installation on a plumbing or similar element prior to such element being concealed by further construction. The tag is adapted to engage a concealed element in such a way that an indicator portion of the tab remains visible after further concealing structure is installed. The visible tab's location identifies the location of concealed elements and is preferably provided with indicia identifying such purpose. In a further embodiment of the invention, adhesive indicator tape is used in conjunction with an indicator tab. The indicator tape is adapted to be applied over concealing structure to generally identify the location and extent of concealed elements that may be susceptible to puncture or damage during subsequent construction or repair phases of a project.
