Abstract: A battery cabinet with a plurality of spaced apart shelves of equal width and depth. Each shelf supports a removable battery module. In turn, each module has a fixed adapter that holds batteries as a battery bank where the module and adapter occupy most of the space between shelves. Battery cells are vertically or horizontally aligned with terminals joined to comb-shaped straps with blades joined to battery terminals. The space between blades allows for thermal expansion without wear on terminals.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine system is described herein. The system uses a switching rail in combination with a first fuel rail to operate the internal combustion engine of the system. The first fuel rail receives the first fuel for combustion within one or more of the combustion cylinders of the internal combustion engine. The switching rails are configured to receive either the first fuel or a second fuel. A controller is used to operate a switching valve that, depending on the position of the switching valve, routes or directs either the second fuel or the first fuel from their respective fuel tanks. In a switching condition, such as startup, shutdown, or when the second fuel is not available, the controller can use the first fuel as the alternate source of fuel provided through the switching rail.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing the operation of data processing systems are disclosed. A data processing system may include a computing device that may provide computer implemented services. To provide the computer implemented services, hardware components of the data processing system may need to operate in predetermined manners. To manage the operation of the hardware components, the data processing system may heat them when their temperatures fall outside of thermal operating ranges. The data processing system may implement a distributed management framework for managing the operation of a thermal management subsystem tasked with maintaining the temperatures of the hardware components through heating.

Abstract: Computer implemented systems and methods are disclosed for importing data from electronic data files. In accordance with some embodiments, a file format is assigned to a source electronic data files by a data importation system. The data importation system may further identify a file type identifier associated with the source electronic data file and map the source electronic data file to a transformation template. The data importation system may further store the file format, file type identifier, and an indication of the transformation template as a file type profile associated with the source electronic data file in a database.

Abstract: Computing system enhancements make container instantiation faster, reduce layer content storage demands, and make more container image formats available. A container instantiation location sends a container image pull request to a container registry, receives an image manifest, sends a layer mount request to the registry instead of a layer content download request, receives a layer mount, optionally repeats for additional layers, creates a union file system spanning the layers, and launches a container process based on the union file system without first downloading all the layer content.

Abstract: A mobility device configurable in a first walk configuration and a second stair-climb configuration, including a frame with movable front leg portions, a leg-actuation system connected to the front leg portions and a safety-control device mounted to the frame. The safety-control device includes a configuration selector, and a lever connected to the leg-actuation system and configured to actuate the cable actuation system so as to cause the first and second movable leg portions to move from a first position to a second position. The lever remains locked in a first lever position such that the lever cannot be moved unless the configuration selector is in a depressed position, thereby preventing inadvertent movement of the leg portion.

Abstract: A computer-implemented is disclosed. The method includes: determining a first position of a real display device in a real-world environment; receiving a request to display virtual information at a second relative position with respect to the first position in an AR version of the real-world environment; responsive to receiving the request: determining a displayable area associated with the second relative position; and causing the virtual information to be overlaid on the displayable area in the AR version of the real-world environment.

Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, the render rate is varied across and/or up and down the display screen. This may be done based on where the user is looking in order to reduce power consumption and/or increase performance. Specifically the screen display is separated into regions, such as quadrants. Each of these regions is rendered at a rate determined by at least one of what the user is currently looking at, what the user has looked at in the past and/or what it is predicted that the user will look at next. Areas of less focus may be rendered at a lower rate, reducing power consumption in some embodiments.

Abstract: Authorization is divided between a control plane and a data plane for sharing database data. A producer database engine can create a shared database via a data plane interface. A producer can then authorize access to the shared database via a control plane interface to a consumer. A consumer can associate the authorization granted to the consumer with a consumer database engine via the control plane interface.

Abstract: Various arrangements for communicating with a device utilizing an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) are presented. A backend system may detect a triggering event associated with a device based upon data received via a first connection. In response to detecting the first triggering event, the UAV may receive a first data set and a location associated with the device from the backend system. The UAV may deploy to the received location. A second connection between the UAV and the device can be established at the received location. The UAV may transmit the first data set to the device via the second connection at the received location.

Abstract: A pump for the pumping small volumes of medical fluid is provided. The pump has a manifold chamber having an inlet port and an outlet port. Within the manifold chamber, a cannula having input and output holes oriented with respect to the inlet and outlet ports is rotated within the manifold chamber, and translated axially in a reciprocating manner. The input opening of the cannula overlaps with the inlet port as the manifold chamber volume is increasing to draw fluid into the manifold chamber from the input port. The output opening of the cannula chamber overlaps with the output port as the manifold chamber volume is decreasing to force fluid out of the manifold chamber to the outlet port. The cannula may be formed from metal needle stock.

Abstract: A database service may distribute resources across different geographic locations or other infrastructures to increase availability of the resources and may provide multiple locations to access resources and isolate failure of resources to a respective location or infrastructure. The processing resources in differing fault tolerance zones may be able to continue operating in the event of an outage impacting an entire fault tolerance zone. The database service may generate a supporting processing cluster in the differing fault tolerance zone that handles at least a portion of the access requests of an initial processing cluster. The database service may provision the supporting processing cluster in a separate fault tolerance zone that has a similar capacity and may provision and maintain the cluster in order to preclude the potential of not having sufficient capacity to recover upon failure of a single fault tolerance zone.

The leader node may cause the determined management action to be performed.

Abstract: A material handling tool having a support member, a magnet, a magnet control, a power source, and a magnet coupling. The support member may be made of two or more support member portions that allow for interchangeable support members of various lengths to be used in order to adjust the length of the material handling tool. The magnets used with the material handling tool may also be interchangeable in order to use magnets of different strengths. A magnet coupling may be used that provides angular and/or rotational movement of the magnet with respect to the support member. The magnet may be an electromagnet, which may have a magnetic field that can be adjusted. As such, a magnet control and/or power source may be used to adjust the magnetic field by turning the magnetic field on or off or adjusting the strength of the magnetic field.
