Abstract: A technique enables recovery of failover data used to generate one or more High Frequency Snapshots (HFSs) at a source and replicated to a target for storage and recovery. The target is illustratively an intermediary repository embodied as a long-term storage service (LTSS) configured to organize and store the HFSs as recovery points (RPs) in an object store. The LTSS stores a HFS identifier (ID), a logical offset in an object of the object store storing data of the HFS, and a logical timestamp associated with each replicated HFS as a key of a segment descriptor in a key-value database configured to store metadata describing the failover data of the HFS stored as one or more objects in the object store. Upon recovery of the failover data, the technique enables identification of the HFS stored in the object store and creation of a HFS index metadata structure (B+ tree) to extract the identified HFS as a RP.

Methods may include tracking movements of a user's hand, moving a cursor of a virtual mouse in a graphical user interface (GUI) responsive to hand movements, predicting a target user interface element for the cursor in the GUI, and adjusting a speed of the cursor in the GUI based on a distance to the predicted target user interface element so that fingers of the user's hand will be on or over particular keys on the physical keyboard when the cursor is on the predicted target user interface element. Methods may further include switching from a normal operating mode to the virtual mouse operating mode in response to recognizing a user gesture. In the virtual mouse operating mode, key presses on the physical keyboard are translated into mouse click inputs.

Abstract: A system for generating mechanical power using super critical carbon dioxide (sCO2) is disclosed. The system includes at least one expansion cylinder (5) housing a first piston (5a) and at least one compression cylinder (6) housing a second piston (6a). A first heat exchanger (C) is fluidically connected to the compression cylinder (6) and the expansion cylinder (5), and a second heat exchanger (H) is fluidically connected to the compression cylinder (6) and the expansion cylinder (5). The first heat exchanger (C) cools the CO2 received from the expansion cylinder (5), and the compression cylinder (6) pressurizes the CO2 cooled by the first heat exchanger (C). The second heat exchanger (H) heats the CO2 from the compression cylinder (6) and supplies to the expansion cylinder (5). The high temperature and high-pressure CO2 drives the first piston (5a) housed inside the expansion cylinder (5) to generate mechanical energy.
