Abstract: A system and method for facilitating extracting processing data, in a networked computing environment. An example method includes receiving a signal from a user input device specifying a regular expression. The regular expression includes criteria for extracting data from a database or file, e.g., a text, XML, JSON, or other type of file. A selected function is applied to data that is extracted in accordance with the regular expression via a MapReduce framework. In a more specific embodiment, the method further includes delivering reduced or processed data to a DataBase Management System (DBMS) of a networked enterprise computing environment. The database includes a file with data obtained from one or more databases distributed among one or more servers of the enterprise computing environment.

Abstract: A FinFET having fin back biasing and methods of forming the same are disclosed. The FinFET includes a substrate and a fin over the substrate. The fin includes a source region, a drain region, a channel region, and a biasing region. The source and drain regions sandwich the channel region. The channel region and the biasing region sandwich one of the source and drain regions. The FinFET further includes a gate over the substrate. The gate engages the fin adjacent to the channel region, thereby forming a field effect transistor (FET). The biasing region is configured to bias the FET body effect when a voltage is applied to the biasing region. From a cross sectional view, the source region and the biasing region each have a substantially rectangular profile, wherein the source region is taller and wider than the biasing region.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a tone wheel having a plurality of encoding members spaced substantially evenly about a periphery thereof. Each tone wheel is rotates with an associated wheel. A fixed speed sensor is mounted adjacent to each tone wheel. The vehicle includes a brake system. A method determines a travel distance between adjacent encoding members. A required rolling distance of a vehicle from standstill is established. Maximum allowed interrupts per wheel is established, with an interrupt defined as each instance an encoding member passes an associated speed sensor. It is determined whether the vehicle is actually rolling from standstill. Once the vehicle is actually rolling, a number of interrupts is counted at each wheel. When the maximum allowed interrupts is counted at each wheel, the brake system is supplied with pressure increase to return the vehicle to, and hold the vehicle at, standstill prior to reaching the required rolling distance.
