Abstract: A computer implemented method manages connections in a connection pool. A computer system creates a modified call stack for a connection request in response to receiving the connection request. The modified call stack comprises elements that call prepared statements that are part of an application logic for the connection request. The computer system identifies a group of potential connections from the connections in the connection pool matching the connection request. The group of potential connections is associated with a group of associated modified call stacks that call the prepared statements. The computer system determines a group of weighted match scores for the group of associated modified call stacks from a comparison of the modified call stack with the group of associated modified call stacks. The computer system selects a connection from the group of potential connections based on a highest weighted match score in the group of weighted match scores.

Abstract: A virtual representation of a physical environment can be generated through simulation, which can include one or more virtual agents to represent robots, or at least semi-automated devices, that can operate and perform various tasks in the physical environment. Various component failures, or other potential problems, can be simulated that can be analyzed by one or more deep learning models associated with the virtual agents. These deep learning models can attempt to diagnose the simulated problem, as well as determine one or more potential solutions. The virtual agents can help to gather information for these determinations, as well as to perform tasks for these potential solutions. Once these deep learning models are trained in this simulated environment, these models can be used by one or more robots to perform tasks that may relate to maintenance or operation of a physical environment.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for detecting hazardous vehicle events and encouraging usage of driving optimized application features to mitigate occurrence of the hazardous vehicle events. The driving optimized application features can address unsafe driving events that are determined to be correlated with certain distracting application features. For example, an application of a computing device can determine that a user is occupying a vehicle and is driving toward a destination. While driving, data available to the application can indicate that an unsafe driving event, such as a hard braking event, has occurred while the user was interacting with another application. Thereafter, and based on this data, the application can render an output characterizing the correlation between the hard braking event and the other application, and/or provide the user with an option to interact with the other application via driving optimized feature(s).

A return of the completion stage corresponding to the method is received. It is determined whether a state of the completion stage indicates continued execution of the method. In response to determining that the state of the completion stage does indicate continued execution of the method, a set of executions of the method is continued based on an execution return of the method being a null return.

Abstract: A robot device determines an error associated with equipment included in a data center environment. The robot device may compare the error to candidate errors for which the robot device is already trained to resolve. Based on a result of the comparison, the robot device may perform, in a control environment, candidate maintenance operations in association with resolving the error. The robot device may learn a set of actions associated with successfully resolving the error, based on performing the candidate maintenance operations. The robot device may perform maintenance operations associated with the error. Performing the maintenance operations may include applying the learned set of actions.
