Abstract: Provided is a process of servicing a dynamic application program interface request that accommodates different contexts of different requests corresponding to different graph database schemas, the process including: receiving a first application program interface (API) request having a first context; selecting a first type of node in a graph database; obtaining a first schema and a second schema corresponding to the first type of node and the first context; determining that the first schema is partially overridden by the second schema; translating the first API request into a query language of the graph database based on both the first schema and overriding portions of the second schema; and submitting the translated graph database request to the graph database.

Abstract: A method for a dynamic adapter design pattern is described. The method comprises receiving an object comprising object data, wherein the object is associated with an application context. A first type of the object is determined, and the object data is depicted in a first manner determined by the first type. A target type is determined based on the application context. A conversion mechanism is selected from a plurality of conversion mechanisms based on the first type and the target type. The conversion mechanism is applied to the object of the first type to create a new object of the target type. To apply the conversion mechanism, the object is converted from the first type to the target type, wherein the object data is depicted in a second manner determined by the target type, and a field of object data is modified based on the target type.

Abstract: Laser sighting systems for firearms are disclosed. The laser sighting systems are configured to project a peripheral pattern on a target the area of which is substantially representative of the spread of projectile(s) fired from the firearm.
