Abstract: Example implementations relate to a pressure regulator assembly for a closed fluid loop of a CDU. The pressure regulator assembly has a cylinder having an internal volume, and first and second hollow pistons slidably connected to the cylinder to split the internal volume into a first volume portion having cooling fluid, a second volume portion having driver fluid, and a third volume portion having compressible matter. The first volume portion is fluidically connected to the closed fluid loop. The first hollow piston is reciprocated by the compressible matter to maintain operating pressure of the cooling fluid in the closed fluid loop. The second hollow piston is driven by the driver fluid in response to predefined pressure drop of the cooling fluid during predefined time period, to inject additional cooling fluid from the first volume portion into the closed fluid loop to restore pressure level of cooling fluid to operating pressure.

Abstract: A software package is received which encapsulates a plurality of files which are then extracted. For those files that cannot be identified, an embedding is generated. Different file types can employ different embedding generating techniques. Using this embedding, a set of potential software packages to the file from which the embedding was generated is calculated. This calculation can use, for example, one or more similarity analysis techniques relative to a set of mapped packages and embeddings (i.e., a set of known software packages and embeddings corresponding to known constituent files, etc.). The calculation can be used to determine an identity of the software package. The determined identity can be provided to a consuming application or process. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Abstract: A content management system provides a mechanism for representing a particular piece of metadata in multiple languages. The multilingual metadata system provides a user with an ability to visualize a single translation in a language of the user's preference or based on the user's locale. The system receives an indication that at least one metadata field associated with a managed object contains multilingual metadata. A locale metadata table and a new metadata table for the managed object are created using information from an original metadata table for the managed object. Two or more metadata field values representing at least two languages are received by the system. The metadata fields are tagged with locale information and stored in the locale metadata table in association with the at least one metadata field in the new metadata table.

Abstract: A biocompatible membrane composite including a cell impermeable layer and a mitigation layer is provided. The cell impermeable layer is impervious to vascular ingrowth and prevents cellular contact from the host. Additionally, the mitigation layer includes solid features. In at least one embodiment, mitigation layer has therein bonded solid features. In some embodiments, the cell impermeable layer and the mitigation layer are intimately bonded or otherwise connected to each other to form a composite layer having a tight/open structure. A reinforcing component may optionally be positioned external to or within the biocompatible membrane composite to provide support to and prevent distortion. The biocompatible membrane composite may be used in or to form a device for encapsulating biological entities, including, but not limited to, pancreatic lineage type cells such as pancreatic progenitors.

Abstract: Cooling module includes a mounting element, a force application member, a lever, and a cold plate movably coupled to the mounting element.

The lever is connected to the mounting element and the force application member and shiftable between actuated and unactuated states. In the actuated state, the lever pushes the force application member along a first direction causing the engagement members to move the force application member along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and urge the cold plate to compress the spring fingers and establish thermal contact between the cold plate and the removable electronic module.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to a cool fluid reservoir for managing loss of cool fluid in a coolant distribution unit (CDU). The cool fluid reservoir includes a cylinder which has an internal volume defined between an inlet and outlet, and a hollow piston that is slidably connected to the cylinder via one of the inlet or outlet to split the internal volume into a first volume portion filled with the cool fluid and a second volume portion filled with driver fluid. The first volume portion is fluidically connected to a closed fluid loop of the CDU via the hollow piston and other one of the inlet or outlet. The hollow piston is slidably driven by the driver fluid to reduce the first volume portion and inject a portion of the cool fluid from the first volume portion into the closed fluid loop based on an operating pressure of the cool fluid.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to compact and replaceable accumulator to be utilized in a chassis-level cooling device. The accumulator is a low pressurized device having a housing, a bladder, and a compressible fluid. The housing has an inner surface defining a volume and an opening. The bladder is disposed within a volume portion and attached to the opening. The bladder includes a plurality of elongated wall sections foldably coupled to each other and defining a bladder volume therebetween.

The compressible fluid is contained in a remaining volume portion between the inner surface of the housing and the bladder. The compressible fluid is compressed to an offset pressure in response to inflation of the plurality of elongated wall sections.
