Abstract: A module and support structure assembly, in particular for mounting on the windscreen of a passenger compartment of an automotive vehicle, that includes: a module having a housing; and a support structure adapted to carry the module, the housing and support structure comprising respective first and second fixation members cooperating with each other for releasable fixing, in particular by snapping, the module to the support structure. The housing and support structure further comprise cooperating positioning members that are configured to define a receiving position for the module on the support structure, in which the module is not fixed, and to assist in a guided fashion engagement of the first and second fixation members to bring the module in a fixed position.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for managing the activation of software containers, for throttling of requests directed to tenants executing in a software container, and for priming the execution of software containers. The activation of software containers and tenants may be managed by maintaining an activation queue for storing requests to activate software containers or tenants on a host computer. Requests may be retrieved from the queue and utilized to determine whether a software container or a tenant is to be activated on a host. “Bounce” or hot swap tenant activations may be performed. Tenant activation requests might also be throttled by denying the requests or by postponing the requests until a later time. A software container might also be configured to throttle incoming requests to tenants executing therein. The execution of a software container might also be primed by replaying previously recorded network traffic to the software container.

Abstract: A system and method for collaborative product configuration optimization model. A plurality of product families and corresponding one or more product sub-families, a plurality of options families associated with each of the sub-product families is obtained. The option family includes one or more option variants. A first product family from the plurality of product families is selected and the one or more option variants of the first product family is associated with a reference value and is selected based on availability of the one or more option variants. A feasible configuration set for the selected first product family is generated by iteratively performing, for each of a unit of demand, a multi-constrained longest path search traversing across the plurality of option families in an non-increasing order of an average of the reference value of the plurality of the option families and a list of configurations is optimized based on the generated feasible configuration.

Abstract: A system and method for use with a data management service provides aggregated statistics derived from a large amount of user data extracted from one or more transaction management systems. The aggregated statistics are based on client queries from client systems. The queries request statistical information about a queried user grouping. An input interpreter module uses machine learning to modify the queried user grouping into a plurality of improved user groupings. A statistics calculator module performs a set of calculations on the user data based on the improved user groupings, and returns the results to an output preparer module. The output preparer module uses machine learning to determine which aggregated statistic to return to the client system.

Abstract: A classloader executing in an execution environment, such as a JAVA virtual machine or a software container, may be configured to generate class usage data describing the historical usage of classes by applications in the execution environment. Based upon the class usage data, one or more classes may be pre-loaded into a cache prior to receiving a request from an application to load the classes. If an application subsequently requests a class, the request may be satisfied using the class stored in the cache rather than by loading the class at the time the request is received. A probabilistic data structure, such as a Bloom filter, might also be utilized to determine whether a classloader can possibly load a requested class. Only if the classloader can possibly load the requested class will a search be made for the requested class in a classpath associated with the classloader.

At least one baffle extends radially into the internal fuel passage downstream from the inlet and upstream from the at least one fuel port such that the at least one baffle reduces fuel flow area within the fuel flow path upstream from the at least one fuel port.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for isolating tenants executing in a multi-tenant software container. Mechanisms for resource isolation allow tenants executing in a multi-tenant software container to be isolated in order to prevent resource starvation by one or more of the tenants. Mechanisms for dependency isolation may be utilized to prevent one tenant executing in a multi-tenant software container from using another tenant in the same container in a manner that requires co-tenancy. Mechanisms for security isolation may be utilized to prevent one tenant in a multi-tenant software container from accessing protected data or functionality of another tenant. Mechanisms for fault isolation may be utilized to prevent tenants in a multi-tenant software container from causing faults or other types of errors that affect other tenants executing in the same software container.

Abstract: A fuel nozzle for a gas turbine engine that includes: an elongated centerbody; an elongated peripheral wall formed about the centerbody so to define a primary flow annulus; a primary fuel and air supply in fluid communication with the primary flow annulus; and a pilot nozzle. The pilot nozzle, formed in the centerbody, may have axially elongated air and mixing tubes extending between inlets and outlets defined, respectively, through upstream and downstream faces of the pilot nozzle. A secondary air supply may be communicate with the inlets of the air and mixing tubes. A fuel port may be positioned in the mixing tubes for connecting each to a secondary fuel supply. An uninterrupted sidewall sealing structure in each of the air tubes may segregate an air flow therethrough from the secondary fuel supply. The air and mixing tubes may be configured as canted tubes so to induce a downstream swirling flow.
