Abstract: A server system includes a memory, a processor in communication with the memory, and a server managing a plurality of cooperating microservices. The server executes on the at least one processor to capture tracing information reported during invocation of a set of cooperating microservices. The tracing information includes a service name and version information associated with at least one microservice of the set of cooperating microservices.

In use, the atomization module receives gas and liquid from a gas supply and a liquid supply respectively to form an atomized spray and the conduit conveys the atomized spray from the atomization module to a spray inlet located at the bond head to receive the atomized spray into the bond head for cooling the bond head.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are included for performing tracing in a distributed environment. An example method includes determining that a first span corresponds to a client span kind and that a second span corresponds to a server span kind. The first span is cached in association with a span identifier. An identifier associated with the second span is matched to the span identifier associated with the first span. Based on the matching, dependency information is generated corresponding to the first span and the second span.

Abstract: A method for driving a non-volatile memory system is disclosed. A standby detection circuit detects whether the nonvolatile memory system is in a standby condition. In response to determining that the non-volatile memory system is in a standby condition, a bias control circuit reduces bias currents provided to drivers of the non-volatile memory system in a standby mode. The non-volatile memory system is operated in the standby mode after the bias currents have been reduced, where an output signal indicating the standby mode is maintained until a read instruction is detected.

Use of the control wires effects movement and/or rotation of the graft allowing fine control of deployment in the lumen.

Abstract: A treatment apparatus for treating an effluent gas comprising:includes a combustion chamber; a burner; an inlet for receiving secondary combustion air; an exhaust gas outlet for outputting exhaust gases from the combustion chamber; and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is configured to exchange heat between a first fluid and a second fluid flowing through respective first and second fluid flow paths. The first fluid flow path is connected to the inlet such that the secondary combustion air flows from the inlet into the first fluid flow path and the second fluid flow path is connected to the outlet such that the exhaust gases received at the outlet flow into the second fluid flow path. The heat exchanger comprises a fluid flow communication path for providing a path for flow of a portion of the exhaust gases from the second fluid into the first fluid; and at least one inlet aperture for inputting the first fluid to the combustion chamber.

Abstract: The abatement apparatus includes a porous element at least partially defining a treatment chamber and through which treatment materials pass for introduction into the treatment chamber for treatment of an effluent gas stream; and an infra-red heating device operable to emit infra-red energy to heat the porous element which heats the treatment materials as they pass through the porous element into the treatment chamber. In this way, infra-red energy, rather than combustion, can be used to raise the temperature within the treatment chamber in order to treat the effluent gas stream. This allows the apparatus to be used in environments where no fuel gas exists or where the provision of fuel gas is considered undesirable. Also, heating the treatment materials as they pass through the porous sleeve, rather than simply using radiant heat to heat the treatment chamber enables significantly more energy to be imparted into the treatment materials.

The exhaust gas passes through the first stage to a gas abatement device, following which it is passed back to the second stage of the liquid ring pump for removal of the compounds formed in said abatement device. The stages of the liquid ring pump may be adjustable.
