Abstract: Implementations for performing workload-aware space reclamation are provided. One example includes a computing system comprising: processing circuitry and memory storing instructions that, during execution, causes the processing circuitry to: track extent usage characteristics for each of a plurality of extents storing data for a graph database; and perform memory reclamation to reclaim storage areas corresponding to invalid data, wherein performing the memory reclamation comprises: generating a list of extents to be reclaimed based on the tracked extent usage characteristics; and reclaiming memory space on the plurality of extents in order based on the list of extents.

Abstract: Implementations for I/O efficient synchronization on a graph database are provided. One example includes a computing system comprising: processing circuitry and memory storing instructions that, during execution, causes the processing circuitry to: implement the graph database using at least: a read-write node and a read-only node operating in cache memory; and a shared storage for data persistence, wherein the shared storage stores a mapping table of the graph database; receive an update query; update the read-write node based on the update query; write, using the read-write node, a set of logs corresponding to the update query to a write-ahead log journal in the shared storage; and retrieve, using the read-only node, the set of logs from the write-ahead log journal.

Abstract: Implementations for a space-optimized graph database system are provided. One implementation includes a computing system comprising: processing circuitry and memory storing instructions that causes the processing circuitry to: store a graph database comprising an initial tree graph storing a plurality of data entries, each data entry comprising a respective field identifier; receive a query to update the graph database, wherein the query comprises a request to add a new data entry; determine a splitting event to perform based on one or more predetermined criteria; generate a new tree graph corresponding to a field identifier of the new data entry by splitting off a subset of the plurality of data entries of the initial tree graph, wherein the subset comprises all data entries of the initial tree graph that correspond to the field identifier of the new data entry; and update the new tree graph in accordance with the query.

Abstract: Bioactive coatings that are stabilized against inactivation by weathering are provided including a base associated with a chemically modified enzyme capable of enzymatically degrading a component of an organic stain, optionally a lipase or a lysozyme, and optionally a first polyoxyethylene present in the base and independent of the enzyme. The coatings are optionally overlayered onto a substrate to form an active coating facilitating the removal of organic stains or bacterial organic material.

Abstract: The invention discloses a method for cutting a substrate wafer from an indium phosphide crystal, and belongs to the field of semiconductor substrate preparation, comprises the following steps of: 1) orientating, cutting the head and the tail of a crystal bar, adjusting the orientation and trying to cut the crystal bar until a wafer with a required crystal orientation cut, wherein the cutting end face is an orientation end face; 2) multi-wire cutting, on a multi-wire cutting apparatus, dividing a crystal bar parallel to an orientation end face into wafers; 3) cleaning, cleaning the wafer until no residue and no dirt existing on the surface; 4) circle cutting, performing circle cutting on the wafer to cut the desired crystal orientation area.

Abstract: A speaker includes a frame, a magnetic circuit and a deflectable diaphragm. The frame supports the magnetic circuit and the deflectable diaphragm. The magnetic circuit includes a yoke, permanent magnet, top plate and a voice coil former. The voice coil former includes a voice coil wrapped around a lower portion of the perimeter. In an embodiment, an inner wall of T-Yoke forms a through hole along the height of the T-Yoke. A lead wire fixture is positioned at least partially within the through hole. The lead wire fixture includes a cable that is spliced or stripped into one or more lead wires that electrically couples with the voice coil. In an embodiment, the cable, the lead wire fixture, and the lead wires are pre-assembled or integrated into a component. This integration helps to reduce the height and width of the speaker and helps to create a more compact speaker.
