Abstract: A computer-implemented method for relaxing queries on a queried connection graph can include obtaining, by a computing system including one or more computing devices, a connected graph. The computer-implemented method can include evaluating, by the computing system, a first set of connected components of the connected graph with respect to a first query set. The first query set can include one or more query criteria. The query criteria can include one or more attributes associated with operating an autonomous vehicle. The computer-implemented method can include determining, by the computing system, one or more relaxed query sets based at least in part on the first query set. The computer-implemented method can include evaluating, by the computing system, a second set of connected components of the connected graph with respect to the one or more relaxed query sets, the connected graph being associated with autonomous vehicle operation within a geographic area.

Abstract: A vehicle network logging system (VNLS) is described and includes a logger for storing data associated with events, wherein for each of the events, the associated data is created when a trigger associated with the event is received at the VNLS; and a compute node for, for each of the events, subsequent to occurrence of creation of data associated with the event, identifying a data tier for the event, the identified data tier selected from a plurality of data tiers of the VNLS and defined by the trigger associated with the event; and logging the data for the event to an internal disk of the VNLS in the identified data tier, wherein the identified data tier specifies an offload policy and a deletion policy for the data.

Abstract: An example method includes (a) generating a request to obtain log data descriptive of operation of an autonomous vehicle control system in a subject scenario, the log data indexed by an indexing parameter; (b) submitting the request to a log repository service, the log repository service configured to receive the request and serve, responsive to the request, log metadata; (c) loading, based on the log metadata and an index value of the indexing parameter, a log data sketch associated with the index value; and (d) loading, based on the log metadata and the index value, and responsive to an inspection indicator, detailed log data associated with the index value.

Abstract: Systems and methods for autonomous vehicle operations are provided. An example computer-implemented method includes obtaining data indicative of vehicle fleet feature(s) associated with an autonomous vehicle fleet. The method includes obtaining data indicative of a vehicle service request associated with a user, the vehicle service request indicating a request for a vehicle service. The method includes determining user feature(s) associated with the user. The method includes determining a compatibility of the user and the autonomous vehicle fleet for the vehicle service based at least in part on the fleet feature(s) and the user feature(s). Determining the compatibility can include predicting how the autonomous vehicle fleet will perform the vehicle service associated with the vehicle service request based at least in part on the fleet's autonomy capabilities. The method includes communicating data associated with the vehicle service request to a computing system associated with the autonomous vehicle fleet.

Abstract: Systems and methods for authenticating autonomous vehicle travel networks are provided. A system can obtain map data descriptive of a number of segment attributes for a number of travel way segments within a travel way network. The system can obtain operational domain parameters for the travel way segments and generate an operational domain including a number of operational travel way segments with segment attributes that achieve the operational domain parameters. The system can compare the operational domain to approval criteria associated with a service entity to verify that the operational travel way segments of the operational domain comply with service entity policies. The system can provide a verified operational domain to an autonomous vehicle for use in traversing the travel network. An operational domain that does not meet the approval criteria can be modified to comply with the approval criteria before being provided to an autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: A system, method and program product is provided for reserving resources in a computing environment, and especially a distributed cluster environment. The method comprises the steps of analyzing specific requests relating to a received reservation and checking their sufficiency. Resource availability is then checking based on this information. Resources are then reserved and a new reservation created when above mentioned conditions are satisfied.
