Abstract: An indication to remove one or more data in a time series database is received. A metadata index associated with the time series database is updated to indicate a soft removal of each data of the one or more data. A data hole index associated with the time series database is updated to indicate a data hole at a location of each data of the one or more data in the time series database. Responsive to an input/output rate for the time series database being below a threshold, the data hole of each data of the one or more data is optimized.

Abstract: A multi-resistance-state spintronic device, including: a top electrode and a bottom electrode respectively connected to a read-write circuit; and a magnetic tunnel junction between two electrodes. The magnetic tunnel junction includes from top to bottom: a ferromagnetic reference layer, a barrier tunneling layer, a ferromagnetic free layer, and a spin-orbit coupling layer. Nucleation centers are provided at two ends of the ferromagnetic free layer to generate a magnetic domain wall; the spin-orbit coupling layer is connected to the bottom electrode, and when a write pulse is applied, an electron spin current is generated and drives the magnetic domain wall through a spin-orbit torque to move; a plurality of local magnetic domain wall pinning centers are provided at an interface between the spin-orbit coupling layer and the ferromagnetic free layer to enhance a strength of a DM interaction constant between interfaces.

Abstract: A device for sampling soil of tropical lowland rainforest is provided, and the device includes a driving motor, a probe rod and a sampling barrel. An output shaft of the driving motor is fixedly connected with the top end of the probe rod. The probe rod is hollow. The sampling barrel is disposed in the probe rod. An opening of the bottom end of the sampling barrel faces to the soil inlet. Two baffle plates are also arranged in the probe rod. The side wall of the baffle plate is arc-shaped, and the bottom end of the baffle plate is semicircular. The semicircular baffle plates can pass through the space and can be joined to form a cylinder with a closed bottom end. Two linear motors are fixedly arranged in the probe rod and can respectively drive the two baffle plates to move.

Abstract: The three-state spintronic device includes: a bottom electrode, a magnetic tunnel junction and a top electrode from bottom to top. The magnetic tunnel junction includes: a spin-orbit coupling layer, a ferromagnetic free layer, a barrier tunneling layer, a ferromagnetic reference layer, three local magnetic domain wall pinning centers and domain wall nucleation centers. An antisymmetric exchange interaction is modulated, and the magnetic domain wall pinning centers are embedded in an interface between a heavy metal and the ferromagnetic free layer. The magnetic domain wall nucleation centers are at two ends of the ferromagnetic free layer. A current pulse flows through the spin-orbit coupling layer to generate a spin current and the spin current is injected into the ferromagnetic free layer. Under a control of all-electrical controlled, an effective field of a spin-orbit torque drives domain wall to move and displace.
