Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for utilizing a new memory allocation function library called PmemMalloc. For example, the PmemMalloc library allocates pre-allocated, partitioned, and fixed shared memory blocks. In addition, by utilizing the PmemMalloc library, the memory allocation system described herein overcomes problems with persistence and enumeration that encumber existing malloc libraries. Indeed, the PmemMalloc library enables the memory allocation system to perform servicing computation in parallel across multiple CPU cores/threads, distribute computation equally among threads, prioritize servicing, among other improvements. Notably, the PmemMalloc library provides major constructs (e.g., persistence, enumeration, and debuggability) not available existing malloc libraries.

Abstract: Artificial intelligence is utilized in gathering, analyzing and processing of user feedback, specifically as pertaining to service quality in a telecommunications system. In response to collecting the feedback data, the system automatically generates reports and initiates remedial measures in response to such user feedback to enhance the performance of the service.

Abstract: Compiled portions of code generated to perform a query plan at a query engine may be shared with other query engines. A data store, separate from the query engines, may store compiled portions of query code generated for different queries. If a query engine does not have a locally stored compiled portion of query code, then the separate data store may be accessed in order to obtain a compiled portion of query code, allowing reuse of compiled query code across different queries engines for queries directed to different databases.

Abstract: A refrigeration system includes an evaporator within which a refrigerant absorbs heat, a gas cooler/condenser within which the refrigerant rejects heat, a compressor operable to circulate the refrigerant between the evaporator and the gas cooler/condenser, a high pressure valve operable to control a pressure of the refrigerant at an outlet of the gas cooler/condenser, and a controller. The controller is configured to automatically generate a setpoint for a measured or calculated variable of the refrigeration system based on a measured temperature of the refrigerant at the outlet of the gas cooler/condenser. The setpoint is generated using a stored relationship between the measured temperature and a maximum estimated coefficient of performance (COP) that can be achieved at the measured temperature. The controller is configured to operate the high pressure valve to drive the measured or calculated variable toward the setpoint.
