Abstract: Herein are fine grained updates to pieces of JavaScript object notation (JSON) documents by database statements that can update, delete, and insert parts of JSON documents. In an embodiment, a computer receives a request that specifies a modification of a JSON document that is stored in a compressed format in persistent storage. The modification adds additional content to the JSON document, and/or replaces an old value in the JSON document with a new value that is not a same size as the old value. The modification is recorded in a change log. The change log is eventually applied to the compressed format of the JSON document in the persistent storage without entirely rewriting the compressed format of the JSON document in the persistent storage.

Abstract: A water detection device (100) may have a water sensor on both a top and bottom of the device. A water sensor circuit (1004,1006,1100, 1101) may be configured to detect water by delivering a signal may be delivered to an electrical contact (1104, 1132), and the presence of water may be determined based upon detection of the signal at the other contact (1106, 1134). The water sensor circuit device (1101) may be configured with a comparator (1116) that uses hysteresis to provide sensitivity to the presence or absence of water. In a battery-powered water sensor, the water detection signal may be delivered as an alternating signal using, e.g., a signal modulator circuit (e.g., an oscillator circuit (1114) and gate (1120) optionally coupled to a wake-sleep controller (1112)) that is coupled to a battery (133), which may avoid oxidation or other forms of ionic corrosion. In some examples, a water detection signal may be recurrently delivered to the first contact (1132) to conserve battery power.

Abstract: A system and method of storing and recovering a flight plan includes loading flight plan data into working memory of an aircraft flight management system (FMS). When the FMS determines that a storage triggering event has occurred, a copy of at least a portion of the flight plan data is transmitted from the working memory to a non-volatile storage medium. A display command is supplied to a display device, at least following recovery of the FMS from a severe reset, that causes the display device to render a retrieval prompt. A retrieval command is received at the FMS, via a user input device, that causes the FMS to retrieve the at least a portion of the flight plan data from the non-volatile memory and store it in the working memory.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for processing a graph query by exploiting an in-memory graph index and minimizing the number of storage accesses needed to project properties of generated paths. A predefined number of paths from a graph query runtime is accumulated, using different data structures, before executing storage accesses necessary to retrieve all properties needed. A first data structure stores all paths from the graph query runtime that hit cache(s) entirely. A second data structure stores paths that do not hit caches at any level or only a subset of the levels does. Once any of these data structures are full, result rows are produced based on the two data structures prior to extracting more paths from the graph query runtime.
