Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for performing tip-pooling aggregation and distribution. In some implementations, data is extracted from a plurality of different data sources. The data is normalized to a same format. The normalized data, which is attributed to a remote identifier, is indexed to an identifier representing a same source as the remote identifier. Portions of the normalized data indexed to the same contribution source are allocated to buckets based on a contribution period and a role for the same contribution source and a rule applicable to the contribution period. Portions of the normalized data indexed to different contribution sources are aggregated in the buckets to different contribution sources according to the allocation rule. The aggregated portions of the normalized data are assigned to targets based on assignment rules applicable to the buckets and distribution targets active during the contribution period.

The computing device can further receive a public data library that includes characteristics that are publicly available. The computing device may generate a proxy representation based on the public data library and the proxy representation may include one or more characteristics that represent the private data set. The proxy representation may be provided to one or more entities who are unauthorized to access the private data set. In some embodiments, the private data set may correspond to an exchange traded fund and the characteristics may correspond to risk factors associated with the exchange traded fund.

Abstract: An aerator for a turf surface has a traction control, an OPC bail, and an aeration bail capable of single handed operation. A controller automatically lowers a tine head to begin aerating at a start location marked when the aeration bail is closed and lifts the tine head to end aeration at an end location marked when the aeration bail is released. The controller further causes the tines that enter the turf surface at the start location to penetrate to a desired hole depth. The controller also automatically adjusts ground speed to maintain a desired hole spacing during an aeration pass, but permits the operator to speed up during a turnaround between passes with a steerable front wheel freewheeling to mitigate wheel scrubbing. A handle assembly having a spring counterbalance is height adjustable and automatically engages a parking brake when placed in an upright non-operating position.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the invention relate to a kit that makes cleaning cat litter boxes easier and more hygienic.

Abstract: Generation of scripts that facilitate execution of tasks within different run-time environments that utilize different languages and syntax is provided herein. A system comprises a memory that stores executable components and a processor, operatively coupled to the memory, that executes the executable components. The executable components comprise an identification manager component that identifies one or more elements of input data. The input data can comprise test data that comprises respective identifications of an input variable, an output variable, a test vector comprising an initial value of a test input, and an expected output variable against which test results are compared. The executable components can also comprise a template tool component that generates output data that facilitates execution of tasks within different run-time environments that utilize different languages and syntax.

Abstract: A power system may include a primary battery and a reserve battery coupled with an actuator to actuate a downhole tool to perform operations downhole in a wellbore. The reserve battery may include an electrolyte having a solid state at an ambient temperate the wellbore. The primary battery may be coupled to the thermal battery to activate a heat source of the reserve battery. The heat source may generate a heat that melts the electrolyte to a molten state and actuates the reserve battery to transmit power to the actuator.
