Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for identifying a co-applicant based on proximity to an applicant. In an embodiment, a processor determines a location of the applicant, and identifies a plurality of potential co-applicants that are collocated with the location of the applicant. For each respective potential co-applicant of the plurality of potential co-applicants, the processor determines whether a respective edge exists on a graph that connects the applicant with the respective potential co-applicant, and, responsive to determining that the respective edge exists, identifies the respective potential co-applicant as a candidate co-applicant. The processor generates for display, on a device of the applicant, a selectable option that, when selected, indicates that the applicant would like to use the candidate co-applicant as a co-applicant for an application. Responsive to detecting a selection of the selectable option, the processor activates the application at a device of the candidate co-applicant.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for a streamlined garbage collection process during which data integrity checking is also performed for a distributed key-value (KV) store utilized by a distributed storage management system. According to one embodiment, by making use of full or truncated block IDs (rather than an intermediate probabilistic data structure, such as a Bloom filter) for garbage collection, data integrity checking can be performed concurrently almost for free. During garbage collection, a block ID compare list is compared to block IDs within the distributed KV store. If a particular block ID is present in the distributed KV store but is missing from the block ID compare list, the corresponding data block represents garbage to be collected. If the particular block ID is present in the block ID compare list but missing from the distributed KV store, a data integrity error has been identified.

Abstract: A variable flow area injector for a liquid rocket engine. The injector has a poppet with a variable outer width portion and a housing with a variable inner width portion. An annular flow path is defined between the variable width portions. Increased throttling of the engine passively increases the annular flow area of the injector by forcing the poppet in a distal direction. Decreased throttling allows a restoring spring to move the poppet in a proximal direction to decrease the annular flow area. A bellows can be included to dampen movement of the poppet. The bellows may be in a propellant-filled cavity separate from the main propellant flow path and have a series of openings through which the separate propellant flows.

Abstract: A network system in an enclosure includes one or more interactive targets such as tintable windows, HVAC components, sensors, computing devices, media display devices, and/or service devices.

The environment and/or targets may be controlled according to preferences and/or requests of its user(s).

Abstract: A system for maintaining links and revisions for documents is described. The system comprises a productivity server configured to provide a document collaboration service and having processors and a memory storing program data. The program data configures the processors to: receive requests indicating revisions on the documents, including a first request that indicates a first revision to a first document, and a second request that indicates a second revision to a second document. For each request, a workspace revision counter shared by, and indicating a revision state of, the documents is incremented. The workspace revision counter is incremented a first time for the first request and a second time for the second request. Revisions corresponding to the each request are queued in a workspace revision queue shared by the documents. The revisions are caused to be performed on the documents that correspond to the each request.

Abstract: A request node is provided comprising request circuitry to issue write requests to write data to storage circuitry. The write requests are issued to the storage circuitry via a coherency node. Status receiving circuitry receives a write status regarding write operations at the storage circuitry from the coherency node and throttle circuitry throttles a rate at which the write requests are issued to the storage circuitry in dependence on the write status. A coherency node is also provided, comprising access circuitry to receive a write request from a request node to write data to storage circuitry and to access the storage circuitry to write the data to the storage circuitry. Receive circuitry receives, from the storage circuitry, an incoming write status regarding write operations at the storage circuitry and transmit circuitry transmits an outgoing write status to the request node based on the incoming write status.
