Abstract: A method comprises storing first transaction data for a first transaction producing a first version of a first dataset, second transaction data for a second transaction transforming a first version of the first dataset to a second version of the first dataset, and third transaction data for a third transaction transforming the second version of the first dataset to a third version of the first dataset; storing dependency information indicating a first dependency of the third transaction on the second transaction and a second dependency of the second transaction on the first transaction; receiving a first instruction to revoke a first permission of a first user to access the second version of the first dataset; automatically revoking a certain permission of the first user to access the third version of the first dataset based on the dependency information.

Abstract: Methods for providing simultaneous access to a hardware data stream to multiple applications are disclosed. The first application to access a hardware device is responsible for providing and publishing an application programming interface (API) that provides access to the hardware device's data stream, which other applications can then call to gain access to the data stream. In some examples, the first application may be a server process or daemon dedicated to managing the hardware device data stream and publishing the API. In some further examples, the first application may instead may carry out user functionality unrelated to managing the hardware device.

Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and/or device for adjusting or removing frames in a set of frames. The method, system, apparatus, and/or device may include: associating a first frame of a set of frames with motion data that is captured approximately contemporaneously with the first frame; when a sampling rate of the motion data is greater than a frame rate of the set of frames, aggregating a first sample of the motion data captured at the first frame and a second sample of the motion data captured between the first frame and a second frame of the set of frames to obtain a movement value; when the movement value does not exceed a first threshold value, accepting the first frame from the set of frames; and when the movement value exceeds the first threshold value, rejecting the first frame from the set of frames.

Abstract: Switching among sensor feeds for optimum performance includes disposing a processor in communication with sensors, each said sensor providing a primary data stream. A data stream standard is established in the processor. The primary data streams are communicated from the sensors to the processor, and are compared against the data stream in the processor. A secondary data stream is selected from among the primary data streams or synthesized from one or more of the primary data streams, based on which primary data stream(s) most closely match the data stream standard. The secondary data stream is communicated to a data stream recipient. The data stream recipient may identify input in the secondary data stream, and an input executor may execute control commands corresponding to the input so as to control a device or system.

Abstract: Polylactose is used as a prebiotic either as a supplement or in human food. The polylactose is essentially free from deleterious sugar caramelization by-products such as 5-hydroxymethyl furfural.
