  • Patent number: 9983149
    Abstract: A testing device for testing an inner surface of a rotationally symmetrical cavity in a workpiece has a measuring head which defines an axial direction, and on which an optical system is situated. The optical system is in image transmission connection with an image recorder and a downstream evaluation apparatus. The testing device also has an illumination arrangement for illuminating an imaging area of the inner surface which is detected by the optical system. The illumination arrangement is designed and configured for illuminating the inner surface which is detected by the optical system. The illumination arrangement can illuminate the inner surface to be tested from different illumination directions in order to generate shadow images of the topography of the inner surface. The evaluation apparatus is designed and configured for determining the topography based on the shadow images recorded by the image recorder.

  • Patent number: 9934324
    Abstract: A system, computer-implemented method, and computer-readable storage medium for generating a block-based index, are provided. A block index is generated where the block index comprises a plurality of blocks and a block corresponds to a section of a graph column that stores a value. A block range vector is also generated for the index where the block range vector includes range information for the block that corresponds to the section of the graph and where the block-based index facilitates traversal of the graph column that searches for the value by constraining the traversal to the section of the graph.

  • Patent number: 9691210
    Abstract: A coin processing device (10) and a method for classifying coins are provided. The coin processing device (10) includes at least one computerized controller (9) having a storage unit (36), and at least one coin channel (34) for guiding a coin (35). The at least one coin channel (34) includes at least one sensor (37) suitable for measuring a passage time of the coin (35). An accelerating device (43) is connected to the computerized controller (9) and is designed to accelerate the coin (35) in a reproducible manner. A target speed value for a specified coin (35) is stored in the storage unit (36). An actual speed value is calculated based on the transport time detected by the sensor (37). A coin class of the coin (35) is ascertained by the computerized controller (9) from the comparison of the target speed value and the actual speed value.

  • Patent number: 9567056
    Abstract: Systems, devices and methods are disclosed for controlling the flow of a fluid over the window of an optical instrument housing in a freestream flow field. For example, the flow upstream of the housing may be split to create a flow region over the window that is conducive to successful operation of the instrument. The flow region may be maintained for various rotations of the housing about yaw, pitch, and roll axes. The disclosed features in some embodiments induce flow regions with reduced spatial and temporal density gradients of the flow over the window.

  • Patent number: 9547728
    Abstract: A system, computer-implemented method, and a computer-readable storage medium for a traversal of a property graph, are provided. The edge table of the property graph is divided into a plurality of fragments. A first fragment is selected for traversal using a set of selected vertices, where the traversal identifies a set of edges. Based on the set of edges, a set of adjacent vertices is determined during the traversal. A set of discovered vertices in the property graph is determined based on the set of selected vertices and the set of adjacent vertices.

  • Publication number: 20170011099
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for interactive exploration of graph data. An embodiment operates by compiling a data query in any database-readable language based upon an input parameter. A data query of a graph data set is then conducted but is halted when a breakpoint generated from the input parameter is reached. Halting the data query includes partitioning a data subset from the graph data set. The data subsets is then displayed.
