Abstract: Methods for operation fragmentation with metadata serialization in query processing pushdowns are performed by systems and devices. A compute node receives a query directed to database data, and generates query text fragments. Portions of metadata of the database are read from different page servers, and are serialized by the compute node. Page identities of data pages in a page server that stores the data are determined from a page index at the compute node, and the compute node provides the text fragments, the serialized metadata, and the page identities to the page server storing the data. The page server compiles the text fragments based on the serialized metadata to generate an executable query plan for the query. The page server initializes and performs execution of the executable query plan against the data as a pushdown query operation, and a result of pushdown query operation is provided to the compute node.

Abstract: Methods and systems for determining and calibrating non-linearity in a phase interpolator. Embodiments determine a first jitter value that causes the bit error rate (BER) of a data sequence to exceed a predefined target BER, when a recovered clock is aligned with the data sequence at a first PI code. The recovered clock is obtained from a data pattern representing the data sequence. Embodiments determine a second jitter value that causes the BER of the data sequence to exceed the predefined target BER at a second PI code. The first PI code may immediately precede or succeed the second PI code. Embodiments determine a Differential Non-Linearity (DNL) corresponding to the second PI code, based on a phase shift introduced to the recovered clock by the second PI code relative to the first PI code, the first jitter value, and the second jitter value. All DNL values corresponding to all PI codes may be determined in a similar manner.

Abstract: An aircraft seat includes a primary seating section including a primary seat pan and seatback. The aircraft seat further includes one or more deployable armrest assemblies, where each armrest assembly is configured to actuate between a stowed and deployed position. Each armrest assembly includes an actuator sub-system including a locking assembly and an actuator. Each armrest assembly further includes an armrest attaching panel.

When the locking assembly is in the unlocked state, the actuator actuates the armrest assemblies to the deployed position. The auxiliary and primary seat pan form a wide seating surface when in the deployed position. A top surface of the auxiliary seat pan is substantially flush with a top surface of the primary seat pan cushion.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a system and a method for object detection and counter measures. A signal reflected by an object in an environment is conditioned to improve various parameters such as signal to noise ratio, spectral resolution, color mapping, or the like. A determination whether the object is unmanned aerial vehicle is based on an output of a trained AI model. The trained AI model classifies the detected object into a category based on the conditioned signal. Additionally, a jammer and spoofer are orchestrated based on determination that the object is an unmanned aerial vehicle. A control of the object is achieved based on the orchestration to perform counter measures such as jamming and spoofing.
