Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing a multi-tenant system that executes graph language requests using graph operations of a graph language. A graph language request—that configures tenant data for tenants in a multi-tenant system—is executed using a graph operations engine. The graph operations engine receives and parses a graph language request that includes a list of tenants and a definition of data operations. The set of data operations of the definition are executed on a tree of data operation nodes comprising a plurality of leaf nodes and a root node. Executing the data operations is based on graph language actions (e.g., composition, transformation, and aggregation) that support asynchronously returning results data associated with configuring the Tenant data. Executing the data operations of the definition causes generation of results data (e.g., root node results or leaf node results) configuration of the tenant data in the multi-tenant system.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for enhancing the efficacy and/or safety of a vaccine. In certain embodiments, the invention provides methods to increase or potentiate the immune response to a vaccine in a subject in need thereof. The methods of the present invention comprise administering to a subject in need thereof an interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4R) antagonist such as an anti-IL-4R antibody in combination with said vaccine. In certain embodiments, the methods of the present invention are used to afford enhanced protection to an infectious disease such as whooping cough.

Abstract: The disclosed techniques assist in diagnosing performance problems of a software application. A profiling module dynamically instruments the application at runtime by intercepting a request to compile one of the application's functions and augmenting the function with performance measuring code. This way, instrumentation is installed without recompiling the application. The execution time of a synchronous function is tracked by adding a local variable that stores function entry time, and by inserting code at each function exit point that computes the elapsed time. The execution time of an async function that executes across multiple threads is measured by repurposing a state machine value to also store the initial function entry time. Instrumented functions that are executed at a rate exceeding a threshold are un-instrumented to avoid self-inflicted performance problems. Function invocations associated with a particular activity, such as responding to a particular web request, may be correlated.

Abstract: Provided herein are various enhanced systems, apparatuses, and techniques for optical communication among a constellation of satellites. One example includes establishing an initial cross-connect configuration comprising optical communication links among a constellation of satellites. In the initial cross-connect configuration, the satellites can optically communicate with both adjacently positioned and non-adjacently positioned satellites in the constellation. The satellites obtain angular states of the optical communication links resultant from orbital motion of the satellites. When angular states of a portion of the optical communication links reach an exclusion range, the satellites establish a subsequent cross-connect configuration to avoid optically communicating within the exclusion range.

Abstract: A modular spacecraft is provided. The modular spacecraft includes a bus module and a payload module. The bus module provides additional thermal radiative capacity for the payload module by including a bus-panel payload thermal zone that couples operational components of the payload module to a radiator panel in the bus module. The bus module also includes its own operational components that are thermally coupled to the radiator panel but that are thermally isolated from the payload module and the bus-panel payload thermal zone.
