Abstract: A zero-gravity hoist system including a chain fall, a motor coupled to the chain fall and configured to drive the chain fall in one or more directions, a power supply configured to provide power to the motor, and a controller having one or more electronic processors. The one or more electronic processors are configured to measure a first force of a load in response to receiving an input, store the measured first force in a memory of the controller, measure a second force of the load, determine a difference between the second measured force and the first measured force, and adjust a height of the load based on determining that the second force differs from the first force by a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to index maintenance management of a relational database management system having a set of indexes. A subset of the set of indexes, which is indicated as a non-critical index subset, is detected with respect to the set of indexes. Related to maintenance of the subset of the set of indexes, a determination is made to perform an index maintenance impact action. Corresponding to the subset of the set of indexes, the index maintenance impact action is performed.

Abstract: Rows are inserted in a database table on a page having a first space reserved for inserting rows of the database table. A second space is reserved for updating data of the inserted rows, wherein reserving the second space includes reserving the second space on the page responsive to inserting each of the rows.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system compares database transactions to corresponding performance information to identify conforming database transactions with an acceptable deviation from the performance information and outlier database transactions beyond the acceptable deviation from the performance information. The system aggregates information from a threshold quantity of conforming database transactions into an aggregated record, wherein the threshold quantity is dynamically adjusted, and generates a record for each outlier database transaction, wherein conditions for identifying the outlier database transactions are dynamically adjusted. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for managing database transactions in substantially the same manners described above.

Abstract: A row is inserted in a database table on a page having a first space reserved for inserting rows of the database table. A second space is reserved for adding data to the inserted row, wherein reserving the second space includes reserving the second space on the page responsive to inserting the row, so that the amount of space reserved for adding data to inserted rows grows as more rows are inserted. The page is marked full for the second space independently of whether the first space is full for inserting new rows. Data is added to rows on the page, responsive to detecting that the second space is full, by adding the data to one or more new pages, even though rows may still be inserted on the page using any remaining room in the first space on the page.

Abstract: A method for performing disjunctive single-index access on a database is disclosed. The method includes a query engine determining whether a first OR predicate and a second OR predicate map to a shared index. Responsive to the query engine determining that the first OR predicate and the second OR predicate map to the shared index, the first OR predicate and the second OR predicate are ordered in an ascending sequence. A first range of the first OR predicate is queued. A first row of the shared index is probed for the first range of the first OR predicate. Whether the first row is disqualified by the first OR predicate is determined. Responsive to determining that the first row is not disqualified by the first OR predicate, the row is reported in a result reporting structure.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for ensuring query execution plan stability in a database management system. The present invention binds a static database query to a new query execution plan (QEP) that produces the same result set as an original QEP bound to the static database query. Next, the present invention identifies one of the original QEP and the new QEP as a primary QEP and automatically collects execution statistics for the original QEP and the new QEP. Finally, the present invention automatically selects one of the original QEP and the new QEP as the primary QEP in response to completion of the automatic collection of execution statistics, the primary QEP selected such that the automatically selected QEP provides optimal execution performance based on performance criteria in comparison to the automatically unselected QEP, the primary QEP selected based on the execution statistics.
