  • Publication number: 20240133975
    Abstract: A computerized simulation validating method for a full-scale distribution network single phase-to-ground fault test is implemented by simulating a full-scale test system with external quantities being controlled to be conformant and validating the full-scale distribution network single phase-to-ground fault test based on a conformance check result between the internal quantities of the field testing and the internal quantities of the simulation testing. The simulation validating method for a full-scale distribution network single phase-to-ground fault test improves normalization and conformance of the full-scale distribution network ground fault test. The computerized simulation validating system, apparatus, and medium for a full-scale distribution network single phase-to-ground fault test also achieve the benefits noted above.

  • Patent number: 11455217
    Abstract: Transaction consistency query support is available for replicated data from recovery log to external data stores. An external data store is populated with records using entries of a change data table. The change data table has entries for each transaction that has committed and is to be replicated, and each of the entries stores information for each log entry in a recovery log from a database management system. Each log entry identifies a transactional change of data and a transaction completion indicator of one of commit and abort. In response to receiving a query about a transaction of the transactions, a set of records are retrieved from the external data store for the transaction. From the set of records, records whose sequence identifier values are larger than a maximum transaction commit sequence identifier are removed. From the set of records, remaining records having transaction consistency are returned.
