Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving, by an application, a request to copy application data of the application, where the application data includes sensitive data generated by the application. The application identifies each instance of the sensitive data in the application data. The application generates a clean copy of the application data, where generating the clean copy includes removing each instance of the sensitive data from the application data. The clean copy is returned responsive to the request to copy the application data.

Abstract: A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for performing a network traffic combination operation. With the network traffic combination operation, a plurality of input queues are defined by an operating system for an adapter based upon workload type (e.g., as determined by a transport layer). Additionally, the operating system defines each input queue to match a virtual memory architecture of the transport layer (e.g., one input queue is defined as 31 bit and other input queue is defined as 64 bit). When data is received off the wire as inbound data from a physical NIC, the network adapter associates the inbound data with the appropriate memory type. Thus, data copies are eliminated and memory consumption and associated storage management operations are reduced for the smaller bit architecture communications while allowing the operating system to continue executing in a larger bit architecture configuration.

Abstract: A transport layer connection is established between a first system and a second system. The establishment of the transport layer connection includes identifying a remote direct memory access (RDMA) connection between the first system and the second system. After establishing to transport layer connection, the first and second systems exchange data using the RDMA connection identified in establishing the transport layer connection.

Abstract: A downhole well pumping assembly has a shroud with an upper section and a lower section sealed from one another. A submersible pump and a gas separator are housed within the upper section of the shroud. The gas separator has a liquid outlet in fluid communication with an intake of the pump, and a gas outlet in fluid communication with the gas outlet in the shroud. A motor is housed within the lower section of the shroud, the motor being coupled to the gas separator for rotating the gas separator and the pump. A well fluid lower inlet is in the shroud below the motor and a well fluid lower outlet is in the shroud above the motor.

Abstract: A vane-type camshaft phaser for an internal combustion engine includes an intermediate locking pin and seat for locking the camshaft phaser at a position intermediate of its full advanced and retard positions. A feature is provided for radially orienting the locking pin with the seat.

Abstract: A system for managing communications to add a first Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) link between a TCP server and a TCP client, where the first RDMA link references first remote memory buffer (RMB) and a second RMB, and further based on a first remote direct memory access network interface card (RNIC) associated with the TCP server and a second RNIC associated with the TCP client. The system determines whether a third RNIC is enabled. The system adds a second RDMA link, responsive to a determination that the third RNIC is enabled. The system detects a failure in a failed RDMA link. The system reconfigures the first RDMA link to carry at least one TCP message of a connection formerly assigned to the failed RDMA link, responsive to detecting the failure. The system communicates at least one message of the at least one connection on the first RDMA link.

Abstract: A camshaft phaser includes a housing with an array of internal splines formed within a bore. A harmonic gear drive unit is disposed within the housing and includes a circular spline and a dynamic spline, a flexspline disposed radially within the circular spline and the dynamic spline, a wave generator disposed radially within the flexspline, and a rotational actuator connectable to the wave generator. One of the circular spline and the dynamic spline is fixed to the housing. A hub is rotatably disposed radially within the housing and attachable to the camshaft and fixed to the other of the circular spline and the dynamic spline. A back plate has an array of external splines engaged in a sliding fit with the array of internal splines for transmitting torque from the back plate to said housing. The back plate also has an input sprocket for receiving rotational motion, in use.

Abstract: An eVCP camshaft phaser comprising a harmonic gear drive unit having a circular spline and a dynamic spline linked by a common flexspline, and a single wave generator disposed within the flexspline. The circular spline is connectable to either of a crankshaft-connectable sprocket or an engine camshaft, the dynamic spline being connectable to the other thereof. The wave generator is driven selectively by an eMotor to cause the dynamic spline to rotate past the circular spline, thereby changing the phase relationship between the crankshaft and the camshaft. A coaxial coil spring is connected to the sprocket and to the phaser hub and is positioned and tensioned to bias the phaser and camshaft to a stop position wherein the engine can run or be restarted after the eMotor is de-energized. Preferably, the spring comprises a spring cassette for easy assembly into the eVCP.

Abstract: A camshaft phaser controllably varies the phase relationship between a crankshaft and a camshaft in an internal combustion engine. The camshaft phaser includes an input member rotatable by the crankshaft. The input member is connected through a gear drive to an output member which is fixed to the camshaft. A rotational actuator acting on the gear drive unit causes relative rotation between the input member and the output member. A first stop member is rotatable with the input member in a one-to-one relationship. A second stop member is rotatable with the output member in a one-to-one relationship to limit relative angular travel between the input member and the output member. A torque absorption means is provided for limiting the rate at which torque is applied from the rotational actuator to the gear drive unit when the second stop member makes contact with the first stop member.
