  • Patent number: 10886085
    Abstract: A temperature-controlled device for switching off a heating device at a limit temperature has a thermo-mechanical temperature sensor device, a switch-off device, and manual reactivation means. The switch-off device has switching means which are activated by a trigger for switching off the heating device. The manual reactivation means have a movable handle and transmission means for transmitting a force of an operator for reactivating the switching means after switching off the heating device by the trigger. The transmission means have a click spring which at the beginning is in a basic position and, when an operating force acting on said click spring exceeds a certain limit force, clicks to a deflected position. Said click spring in the basic position enables reactivating or re-switching on, respectively, of the switching means.

  • Patent number: 10810198
    Abstract: Techniques related to group determination based on multi-table dictionary codes are disclosed. In some embodiments, one or more non-transitory storage media store a sequence of instructions which, when executed by one or more computing devices, cause performance of a method. The method comprises storing a fact table and a dimension table that share a domain dictionary. The fact table and the dimension table each have a column of encoded join keys that is decodable using the shared domain dictionary. A query may specify one or more row groups for the dimension table. To efficiently process the query, one or more group identifiers are assigned to the one or more row groups. Each row group corresponds to a different group identifier. This enables a code-to-group-identifier mapping to be generated. The code-to-group-identifier mapping correlates the encoded join keys to the one or more group identifiers.

  • Patent number: 10754345
    Abstract: A method for operating a self-driving motor vehicle. A prescribed starting location and a prescribed destination are used to ascertain a driving route. A speed trajectory is determined for the ascertained driving route and the motor vehicle drives along the driving route independently on the basis of the determined speed trajectory. The determination of the speed trajectory includes the following method steps: (i) ascertainment of multiple candidate speed trajectories for the ascertained driving route, (ii) computation of an unpunctuality characteristic value for each of the ascertained candidate speed trajectories, wherein the unpunctuality characteristic value is a measure of a divergence from a prescribed desired time of arrival at the destination, and (iii) selection of that candidate speed trajectory having the unpunctuality characteristic value with the smallest magnitude.

  • Patent number: 10558659
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for performing join and aggregation operations for a received query using column dictionaries. In an embodiment, a query is received that requests to aggregate a measure column of a fact table based on an aggregate function and join the fact table with a dimension table on a join key column. Data of the fact table may be stored in one or more storage data units, for example a particular data portion of the fact table may be stored on a particular data storage unit. The respective data portion may include one or more column vectors corresponding to one or more columns of the fact table in which a cell element corresponds to a value at a particular row and a particular column of the one or more columns of the fact table. The cell element of the one or more column vectors includes a dictionary encoded value of the value at the particular column and row. This dictionary encoded value is mapped to the value of by a dictionary data structure of the particular column.
