Abstract: Prefetch of microservices for incoming requests. The method determines for an incoming request a Service Level Objective (SLO) requirement for latency of a request type of the incoming request. The method generates a set of possible microservice sequences for the request including a probability of occurrence of each of the possible microservice sequences and determines a set of prefetch permutations for the set of possible microservice sequences. A latency score is calculated for each prefetch permutation and any prefetch permutations that do not meet the SLO requirement for latency of the request type are eliminated. An optimal prefetch permutation of the remaining prefetch permutations is selected by considering a total cost of the prefetch permutation based on a cost of running each microservice in the set of sequences.

Abstract: An adjustable sleeping system. At least some of the example embodiments are an adjustable sleeping system comprising a plurality of spring modules arranged in a first column, each spring module defines a row within the first column. Each spring module may comprise a rail and a plurality of adjustable spring assembles coupled along the rail. Each adjustable spring assembly may comprise a motor coupled to the rail, a lead screw coupled to a rotor of the motor, a spring plate coupled to the lead screw, and a spring coupled to the spring plate. A bed controller is communicatively coupled to each spring module, and the bed controller is configured to selectively control a load carried by each spring assembly.

Abstract: Spring modules for an adjustable sleeping system. At least some of the example embodiments are spring modules comprising: a spring rail, and a plurality of adjustable spring assemblies spaced along the length of the spring rail. Each adjustable spring assembly may comprise: a motor with a stator coupled to the spring rail via a load cell, a lead screw coupled to a rotor of the motor, and the lead screw extending above an upper surface of the spring rail, a spring plate coupled to the lead screw, and a main spring coupled to the spring plate. A tubular sock disposed over the main spring, and a compliant insert can be disposed between adjacent main springs to inhibit side loading and maintain the main spring in upright relation with the spring rail.
