Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include system including a hardware based, programmable data analytics processor configured to reside between a data storage unit and one or more hosts. The programmable data analytics processor includes a selector module configured to input a first set of data and, based on a selection indicator, output a first subset of the first set of data; a filter and project module configured to input a second set of data and, based on a function, output an updated second set of data; a join and group module configured to combine data from one or more third data sets into a combined data set; and a communications fabric configured to transfer data between any of the selector module, the filter and project module, and the join and group module.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include a data filter system including an interface and data filter circuitry. The data filter circuitry is configured to receive a data filter initiation signal via the interface, and in response to receipt of the data filter initiation signal, perform at least one operation associated with a data query, wherein the data query implicates a body of data stored in at least one storage unit; wherein performance of the at least one operation associated with the data query results in generation of a filtered data subset from the body of data, including less data than the body of data implicated by the data query; and transfer the filtered data subset to a host processor configured to perform one or more additional operations relative to the data query to generate an output to the data query.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a load carrying system for a wearer includes a carrier made of at least one flexible carrier material and comprises a front portion to be disposed at the wearer's front, and a back portion to be disposed at the wearer's back, when the system is worn by the wearer; a load attachment arrangement for detachably attaching a load to at least the front portion; a front load distribution arrangement comprising at least one elongated front load distribution element made of a material more rigid than the carrier material and attached to the front portion of the carrier by a front attachment member different from, and operating independently of, the load attachment arrangement; and a back load distribution arrangement disposed in the back portion of the carrier and separated from the front load distribution arrangement by the material of the carrier.
