  • Publication number: 20240095393
    Abstract: Row-level security (RLS) may provide fine-grained access control based on flexible, user-defined access policies to databases, tables, objects, and other data structures. A RLS policy may be an entity or object that defines rules for row access. A RLS policy may be decoupled or independent from any specific table. This allows more robust and flexible control. A RLS policy may then be attached to one or more tables. The RLS policy may include a Boolean-valued expression.

  • Patent number: 8595996
    Abstract: A photovoltaic framed module array apparatus for mounting a first framed photovoltaic (PV) module and a second framed PV module is provided. The photovoltaic framed module array apparatus comprises a first rail. The first rail includes an insert slot for accommodating an insert edge of the first framed PV module, and a capture slot for accommodating a capture edge of the second framed PV module. The capture slot is positioned substantively parallel to the insert slot.

  • Patent number: 8457937
    Abstract: A method of optimizing an autoclave volume utilization includes, in an exemplary embodiment, determining process parameters of an autoclave; modeling an autoclave configuration to determine airflow patterns in the autoclave, temperature variation throughout the autoclave, and the distribution of turbulent intensity in the autoclave; and modifying the autoclave configuration with hardware changes to the autoclave to alter the airflow patterns in the autoclave. The method also includes modeling the modified autoclave configuration to determine modified airflow patterns in the autoclave, modified temperature variation throughout the autoclave, and the modified distribution of turbulent intensity in the autoclave; and modeling the modified autoclave configuration with parts to be cured in the modified autoclave configuration to determine an arrangement of parts that maximizes the number of parts in the autoclave that meet predetermined cured properties of the parts.

  • Publication number: 20080151199
    Abstract: A quasi-axial optical imagery projection system is disclosed in this paper. The system includes optical imagery sets; each may be lenses, mirrors, or a combination of both. The system also has a light source close to an imager, which may be a planar mask with a pattern, a LCD imager, or other suitable imagers. The system also has a display screen. Both the imager and the display screen are set at acute angles with respect to an optical axis so that what is projected on the display screen is a magnified image of the imager by a magnification factor that has a transverse component and a longitudinal component. This quasi-axial projection system may be made thinner than other rear projection system of comparable screen size.
