Abstract: A programming model provides a method for type inference in programming operations. Information defining one or more attributes of an operation is received, the information specifying a field including a field name and a field type identifier for each of the attributes. Constraints for the operation are determined at least based on the attributes, wherein the constraints restrict at least one of a type of input for the operation or a type of output for the operation. Information defining an input for the operation is received, and it is determined, based on the constraints and the received information defining the input, the type of output for the operation. The type of output is associated with an output for the operation.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, including a method for providing content. A query is received. Search results are identified that are responsive to the query. A content item is identified for presentation along with the search results. It is determined, based on one or more criteria, when the content item is to be augmented. When it is determined that the content item is to be augmented and after identifying the search results, the content item is augmented based at least in part on an entry in the search result. An augmented content item is created. The augmented content item is provided.

Abstract: A programming model provides a method for executing a program in a distributed architecture. One or more first shards of the distributed architecture execute one or more operations, and sending tuples to at least one second shard, the tuples being part of a stream and being based on the one or more operations. The one or more first shards send a token value to the at least one second shard when the sending of the tuples in the stream is complete. The at least one second shard determines whether a total of the token values matches a number of the one or more first shards, and takes a first action in response to determining that the total of the token values matches the number of the one or more first shards. The first action may include marking the stream as being complete and/or generating a message indicating that the stream is complete.
