Abstract: A method for managing data synchronization for a database having a dynamic schema, the method comprising: generating, at a first client device, a first changeset that is representative of an operation on a data object in a database; transmitting a synchronization request for synchronizing the database with one or more changesets generated by a second client device; receiving a second changeset that is representative of an operation performed by the second client device on the data object, wherein the database is shared between the first client device and the second client device; and merging, at the first client device, the first changeset and the second changeset to update the data object, wherein the merging is performed based on data received from a plurality of the one or more servers operating in parallel to each other.

Abstract: A processor core includes a storage device which stores a composite very large instruction word (VLIW) instruction, an instruction unit which obtains the composite VLIW instruction from the storage device and decodes the composite VLIW instruction to determine an operation to perform, and a composite VLIW instruction execution unit which executes the composite VLIW instruction to perform the operation.

Abstract: Described herein are tiered synchronization systems and methods suitable for use in non-relational database systems distributed across multiple remote locations, which may provide access to some or all functionality of a cloud-tier server at a mid-tier server. For example, the mid-tier server may be locally accessible (e.g., over LAN) to clients independent of any remote connection to the cloud-tier server (e.g., over the Internet). In some embodiments, a mid-tier server may be configured to perform flexible sync functionality, such as flexible partitioning and/or permissions, whether independently and/or in cooperation with the cloud-tier server performing the same or similar functionality. In some embodiments, systems described herein may provide flexible and consistent local data access to non-relational data in locations where remote network connections are intermittent, such as due to weather conditions, relatively frequent network outages, and/or due to the location regularly changing (e.g.

Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) validator instrument is provided for testing functionality of a test article. The instrument includes an RF transmitter, a connection apparatus, an RF receiver, a direct current (DC) bias detector, and an RF verifier. The transmitter produces an emission signal supplied to an in-port and an out-port. The apparatus connects the in-port and the out-port to separate terminals of the article. The receiver receives said emission signal and producing a detection signal. The DC bias detector receives the emission signal through the out-port to a first voltage divider as a first bias signal, through the in-port to a second voltage divider as a second bias signal, and combining the first and second bias signals as a combination bias signal. The verifier compares the detection and combination bias signals to determine whether the article satisfies functionality.
