Abstract: A computer-readable medium comprises instructions which, upon execution by a node in a multi-node data processing system, enable the node to serve as a first leader node by receiving system log data from multiple compute nodes in a first cluster of the multi-node data processing system, and by saving the system log data in shared storage that is also used by second and third leader nodes to save system log data for compute nodes in second and third clusters of the multi-node data processing system. The instructions further enable the node to respond to failure of either of the second and third leader nodes by automatically assuming system logging duties for the compute nodes in the cluster that was associated with the failed leader node. The instructions may also enable the node to serve as a console bridge and to save console log data in the shared storage.

The controller is adapted to determine a change between the plurality of operating power states in response to user input requests to automatically optimize machine performance and efficiency. Each of the plurality of operating power states includes a maximum electric current output and a maximum speed output of the electric motor.

Abstract: In example implementations, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a processor, an image creation tool, an operating system (OS) image repository and a secondary node interface. The processor has a first architecture and is in communication with the image creation tool, the OS image repository, and the secondary node interface. The image creation tool is to create an OS image for end nodes having the first architecture. The OS image repository is to store OS images. The secondary node shell is to provide an interface to a secondary node with a processor having a second architecture. An OS image for end nodes having the second architecture is created by the secondary node via the secondary node interface.

Abstract: The biological test kit is a device for drawing and, optionally, testing biological samples. The biological test kit is an array of lancets set in wells in a rigid base. Each lancet well is covered by a protective cover which when deformed permits the lancet to puncture a user or other patient. In one embodiment the biological test kit employs distinct covers for each lancet and in another the covers are formed from sheet material formed into blisters which cover the lancet.

Abstract: The shower system has a heat exchanger located in compartment vertically adjacent to the wall of the shower space and closed off by an openable or removable panel. The heat exchanger comprising a helically winding heat exchange conduit with successive windings around a vertical axis in said compartment above the floor of the shower space. A pump coupled to the shower drain pumps warm water to a warm water feed of the heat exchanger, from where it is sprayed on a top winding of the heat exchange conduit. Tap water is fed to the shower head successively via the heat exchange conduit and a heater and/or a mixing element for mixing water from the heat exchanger with water from a supply input for external hot water.

Abstract: Certain aspects involve managing permissions in collaborative workspaces using visual representations of clients. For example, a graphical interface can be displayed that represents a collaborative workspace and that includes visual representations of different clients accessing the workspace. A workspace application executed by a processor can determine that visual representations for at least two clients are positioned in a common region of the graphical interface. The workspace application can authorize the clients to collaboratively modify electronic content that is accessible via the graphical interface based on the visual representations being positioned in the common region. Subsequently, the workspace application can determine that the visual representations are positioned outside the common region and restrict access to the collaboratively modified content accordingly.
