Abstract: A method for detecting and compensating CNC tools being implemented in an electronic device, receives from a detector first parameters and second parameters in respect of a first tool. Such first parameters include at least one of service life, blade break information, and blade chipping information of the first tool, and such second parameters include at least one of length extension information, length wear information, radial wear information, and blade thickness wear information of the first tool. Based on the first parameters, instructions to process the workpiece are transmitted or not. Upon receiving the second parameters, instructions to adjust operation of the first tool are transmitted, to compensate for deterioration in normal use.

Abstract: Techniques support graph pattern matching queries inside a relational database management system (RDBMS) that supports SQL execution. The techniques compile a graph pattern matching query that includes a bounded recursive pattern query into a SQL query that can then be executed by the relational engine. As a result, techniques enable execution of graph pattern matching queries that include bounded recursive patterns on top of the relational engine by avoiding any change in the existing SQL engine.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a plurality of fin structures extending in a first direction over a semiconductor substrate. Each fin structure includes a first region proximate to the semiconductor substrate and a second region distal to the semiconductor substrate. An electrically conductive layer is formed between the first regions of a first adjacent pair of fin structures. A gate electrode structure is formed extending in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction over the fin structure second region, and a metallization layer including at least one conductive line is formed over the gate electrode structure.

Abstract: A request to perform a write operation at a memory device is received. Current wordline start voltage (WLSV) information associated with a particular memory segment of the plurality of memory segments is retrieved. The write operation is performed on the particular memory segment. In a firmware record in a memory sub-system controller, information is stored indicative of a last written memory page associated with the particular memory segment on which the write operation is performed. The firmware record is managed in view of the information indicative of the last written memory page associated with the performed write operation. Each entry of the firmware record comprises one or more identifying indicia associated with a respective memory segment, at least one of the identifying indicia being a wordline start voltage (WLSV) associated with the respective memory segment.

Abstract: This application provides a transmission absorbing structure and an antenna in-band characteristics test system, relating to design of microwave antennas for radar and communication systems. The transmission absorbing structure includes a coupling feed structure provided with coupling slots for energy coupling with a to-be-tested antenna, two equivalent electric wall structures parallel to each other, and two equivalent magnetic wall structures parallel to each other. The two equivalent electric wall structures and the two equivalent magnetic wall structures together enclose the coupling feed structure, and form a transverse electromagnetic mode (TEM) waveguide. The system includes a vector network analyzer, a to-be-tested antenna electrically connected to the vector network analyzer, and a transmission absorbing structure.

Abstract: A portable liquid collection device includes a liquid collector, a guide tube and a liquid collection tube. The liquid collector includes a flowing liquid hole and an anti-slip structure. The guide tube includes two ends, one end connects to the liquid collector, and the other end is in a needle-shaped structure and connects to the liquid collection tube. A gas channel and a liquid channel are disposed in a tube body of the guide tube. The guide tube is provided with an outer annular structure. The liquid collection tube includes a collection tube body and a collection tube cover. The collection tube cover includes a tube cover body and a blocking plug. A placing slot for placing the blocking plug is disposed between the top and the bottom of the tube cover body.

Abstract: Described is an approach for performing an efficient processing of table functions/polymorphic table functions. The approach does not create additional cursors for processing a table or polymorphic table function invoked within a SQL statement. Instead, the approach handles the SQL statement that invokes the table/polymorphic table function as a single cursor.

Abstract: Techniques herein optimize sort-merge join method for a band join. In an embodiment, for a query comprising a query block specifying a join between a first table and a second table, a band join condition is detected between the first table and the second table. Once the band join condition in detected, an execution plan is generated and executed. The execution of the execution plan includes: for a first row of at least a subset of first sorted rows, scanning second rows from a set of second sorted rows, joining each of said second rows with said first row, and ceasing to scan when encountering a row from the second sorted rows that falls outside a bound of said band join condition. Techniques also include parallelizing a workload by overlapping the distribution of rows to the same slave process and computing cost and cardinality estimation for enhanced band join.

Abstract: Disclosed is an approach to define non-SQL functions as a SQL macro, which is then processed inline with SQL statements. By inlining the macro into SQL, this approach avoids cross-engine context switches as well as making it possible for a SQL query optimizer to generate better plans that execute more efficiently.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for supporting efficient evaluation of pivot operations. In an embodiment, a pivoting query on a data table is received. The query identifies pivot columns, measure columns, and grouping columns. In response to receiving the query, a staging table that comprises new pivot columns, aggregated columns, and new grouping columns may be created. For each particular unique combination of values of the grouping columns and the pivot columns in the data table, stored values in the measure columns in the data table are aggregated for certain rows in the plurality of rows in the data table. Each row of the certain rows comprises the each particular unique combination of values of the grouping columns and the pivot columns in the data table. Results of aggregating are stored in the staging table. Data that has been populated in the staging table is transposed into a result set.
