  • Patent number: 12769706
    Abstract: A near memory processing device, a processor and a data processing method are provided. The near memory processing device includes a memory, and a calculation core. The calculation core includes a block trace core that determines an address of a first target data block from the memory based on receiving an indirect block parse request from a processor, and calculates a checksum of a second target data block and write the calculated checksum to the memory based on receiving a checksum update request from the processor, a deduplication table search core that performs deduplication table search processing based on receiving a deduplication table query request from the processor to determine whether a third target data block exists in the memory, and a tree traverse core that traverses a range tree in the memory based on receiving a range tree query request from the processor to determine a target node corresponding to the range tree query request.

  • Publication number: 20260310727
    Abstract: Methods and systems for managing data sources of a distributed system are disclosed. The data sources may be managed by enhancing data used in servicing a request. The data may be enhanced using graphs that have been generated using clustering methods. The graphs may include nodes representing any portion of the data, first edges representing explicit relationships between the data, and/or second edges representing implicit relationships between the data. The data may be enhanced by identifying, from a first node, a second node using the second edges and/or including the any portion of the data represented by the first node with the data used in servicing the request. The implicit relationships of the graphs may be approved and/or rejected by stakeholders of the distributed system.

  • Publication number: 20260313041
    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing desired computer implemented services using data stored in data sources of a distributed system are disclosed. The desired computer implemented services may be provided by generating a custom data resource. The custom data resource may be generated by obtaining first identifiers of local data tables and/or third identifiers of new local data tables. The third identifiers may include second identifiers of remote data tables. The custom data resource may be further generated by performing an update process on dependencies of the first identifiers and/or the third identifiers. The custom data resource may be used by information extraction frameworks to extract information from the custom data resource. The information may be used to facilitate provisioning of the desired computer implemented services.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing desired computer implemented services using data stored in data sources of a distributed system are disclosed. The desired computer implemented services may be provided by obtaining recommended data sources of the data sources using user query data. The user query data may be used to obtain temporal data access patterns by a user and/or relative levels of importance of the data sources indicated by the temporal data access patterns, both of which can be used to obtain recommended data sources. The recommended data sources may be used with a request template to generate an information request that is processable by information extraction frameworks. From processing the information request, information may be obtained that is used to facilitate the desired computer implemented services.

  • Publication number: 20260310571
    Abstract: Methods and systems for managing performance of workloads in a distributed system are disclosed. The performance may be managed by determining the performance of the workloads through updating, using at least stakeholder feedback, synthetic feedback, and/or costs of the workloads, a decision model. The costs may be compared to a cost threshold. Based on the comparison, stakeholder feedback and/or synthetic feedback, from the decision model, may be used to generate at least one scaling factor. The at least one scaling factor and/or the costs may be used to generate rewards. The rewards may be ingested by the decision model to update the decision model. With each update, the decision model may be trained to select, for performance, workloads that do not exceed the cost threshold.

  • Publication number: 20260310689
    Abstract: Methods and systems for managing use of data sources of a distributed system are disclosed. The use of the data sources may be managed by processing queries using a refined dependency graph. The refined dependency graph may include nodes, based on data objects in the data sources, and/or edges, based on explicitly defined relationships and/or inferred relationships. The explicitly defined relationships may be based on database keys (e.g., primary keys, foreign keys, key constraints, and/or any other database key). The inferred relationships may be based on any measures of semantic similarity of the data objects. The any measures of the semantic similarity may be computed using a trained machine learning model.

  • Publication number: 20260310726
    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing desired computer implemented services using data stored in data sources of a distributed system are disclosed. The desired computer implemented services may be provided by identifying sub-graphs for generating information requests. A sub-graph of the sub-graphs may be identified by generating customized embeddings based on (i) a generalized graph data structure of the data sources and/or (ii) embeddings based on (a) words of a request template for a data request and/or (b) attention scores that include measures of relative importance between the words. The sub-graph may be used with the request template to generate an information request that is processable by information extraction frameworks. From processing the information request, information may be obtained that is used to facilitate the desired computer implemented services.

  • Patent number: 12735550
    Abstract: A method for treating a waste plastic based on a persulfate system is provided. The method includes the following steps: mixing the waste plastic, sulfuric acid, sulfate, peroxymonosulfate, and water, and reacting at 80-140° C. for 3-15 h to complete the treatment; where the waste plastic is polyethylene or polyethylene terephthalate; and the sulfate is copper sulfate or ferrous sulfate. The present invention reasonably regulates and controls each parameter in the reaction process while constructing a homogeneous catalysis system of transition metal activated peroxymonosulfate, and finally directionally converts the waste plastic into C7H12 and C10H12 fuels, which realizes high-efficiency recycling of the waste plastic, has a simple and convenient working procedure, and has a wide application prospect.
