Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to transmit a data encoded power signal to addressable devices. A lighting controller sends the data encoded power waveform to a plurality of addressable lighting modules to power and control illumination intensity of lighting. The lighting modules are configured to receive the data encoded power signal via a two-wire communication network, decode illumination intensity data from the data encoded power signal, and generate a PWM signal responsive to the decoded illumination intensity data. The lighting modules use the data encoded power signal as a time base to synchronize the PWM signal to the data encoded power signal to reduce flickering when applying the PWM signal to control the illumination intensity of LEDs associated with the lighting modules.

The seat unit is arranged with other seat units in a column, and each seat unit is configurable between a seating configuration and a flat-bed configuration. The seat units are arranged in an inwardly facing herringbone. A method of providing access for a disabled passenger to a seat unit includes temporarily widening an access opening.

Abstract: An irrigation communicates wirelessly with irrigation control valves. A wireless controller transceiver unit obtains signals from the irrigation controller and transmits these signals wirelessly to a valve transceiver. The irrigation control valves open or close according to the signals received by the valve transceiver. The irrigation system also includes an auxiliary communication device that communicates user commands to the controller transceiver. The user commands are used to create associations between the controller transceiver and each of the valve transceivers. The communication link between the auxiliary communication device and the communication transceiver or the valve transceiver can be an RF communication link such as Bluetooth, a close field communication link such as an inductive communication link, or an optical communication link.

Abstract: Methods for establishing a second database and maintaining synchronization between a first database and the second database in a data management system are described. According to the method, a snapshot of a state of the first database may be acquired and mounted to a second server. The second database may be restored to the second server based on the mount. The second database may replicate the state of the first database. Synchronization may be enabled between the first database and the second database. One or more metrics associated with replication of data between the databases may be identified. A backup process for transaction logs associated with the first database may be initiated and the transaction logs may be mounted to the second server based on the metrics. One or more transactions may be applied to the second database based on the transaction logs mounted to the second server.

Abstract: Systems and method for determining a topic cohesion measurement between a content item and a hyperlinked landing page are presented. In one embodiment, a plurality of content item signals is generated for the content item and a corresponding plurality of signals are generated for the hyperlinked landing page. An analysis of the corresponding signals is conducted to determine a measurement of topic cohesion, a topic cohesion score, between the content item and the hyperlinked landing page. A cohesion predictor model is trained to generate the predictive topic cohesion score between an input content item and a hyperlinked landing page. Upon a determination that the topic cohesion score is less than a predetermined threshold, remedial actions are taken regarding the hyperlink of the content item. Alternatively, positive actions may be carried out, including promoting the content item to others, associating advertisements with the content item, and the like.
