Abstract: A handrail assembly for a work machine is provided. The handrail assembly comprises at least one generally horizontal rail member and a plurality of generally vertical tubular support members (4). Each support member (4) has a first end attached to the at least one rail member, and a second end which is open. A plurality of support plates (10) each have a first portion adapted to be attached to the work machine and a second portion adapted to be attached to the second end of one of the tubular support members (4). A plurality of attachment means attach the second end of each support member (4) to a respective support plate (10). The assembly further comprises a plurality of first elastomeric damping elements (106), where a first elastomeric damping element is sandwiched longitudinally between each support member second end and its respective support plate (10).

Abstract: Communication between a game console having a communication port and a personal computer is facilitated by implementing a shared folder on the personal computer that can be accessed via the communication port. The game console and personal computer may communicate via a Server Message Block compatible code, a Universal Plug and Play networking protocol, and the like. To save memory, the SMB compatible code (or other code) may not support the full set of SMB protocol features (or other protocol features).

Abstract: An implementation of NMF functionality integrated into a relational database management system provides the capability to apply NMF to relational datasets and to sparse datasets. A database management system comprises a multi-dimensional data table operable to store data and a processing unit operable to perform non-negative matrix factorization on data stored in the multi-dimensional data table and to generate a plurality of data tables, each data table being smaller than the multi-dimensional data table and having reduced dimensionality relative to the multi-dimensional data table. The multi-dimensional data table may be a relational data table.

Abstract: An implementation of SVM functionality integrated into a relational database management system (RDBMS) improves efficiency, time consumption, and data security, reduces the parameter tuning challenges presented to the inexperienced user, and reduces the computational costs of building SVM models. A database management system comprises data stored in the database management system and a processing unit comprising a client application programming interface operable to provide an interface to client software, a build unit operable to build a support vector machine model on at least a portion of the data stored in the database management system, and an apply unit operable to apply the support vector machine model using the data stored in the database management system. The database management system may be a relational database management system.

Abstract: An implementation of SVM functionality improves efficiency, time consumption, and data security, reduces the parameter tuning challenges presented to the inexperienced user, and reduces the computational costs of building SVM models. A system for support vector machine processing comprises data stored in the system, a client application programming interface operable to provide an interface to client software, a build unit operable to build a support vector machine model on at least a portion of the data stored in the system, based on a plurality of model-building parameters, a parameter estimation unit operable to estimate values for at least some of the model-building parameters, and an apply unit operable to apply the support vector machine model using the data stored in the system.
