  • Publication number: 20180144015
    Abstract: Aspects extend to methods, systems, and computer program products redoing transaction log records in parallel. Different aspects of replaying log records are allocated to different threads, for example, read threads, analysis threads, logical operation redo threads, and page operation redo threads. The different threads can be distributed across different processor cores. Activities at read threads, analysis threads, logical operation redo threads, and page operation redo threads can be performed on an ongoing basis and in parallel with activities at other threads (including user tasks). In some aspects, pre-allocated memory blocks are used in a lock free manner to store log records prior to processing by a page operation redo thread.

  • Patent number: 9971150
    Abstract: A near-eye optical display system utilizes a compact display engine that couples image light from an imager to a waveguide-based display having diffractive optical elements (DOEs) that provide exit pupil expansion in two directions. The display engine comprises a pair of single axis MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) scanners that are configured to reflect the image light through horizontal and vertical scan axes of the display system's field of view (FOV) using raster scanning. The MEMS scanners are arranged with their axes of rotation at substantially right angles to each other and operate with respective quarter wave retarder plates and a polarizing beam splitter (PBS) to couple the image light into an in-coupling DOE in the waveguide display without the need for additional optical elements such as lenses or relay systems.

  • Publication number: 20180129048
    Abstract: In implementations of hologram focus accommodation, a focus accommodation system is implemented for variable focus of a generated image, such as a hologram, that is displayed for viewing on a waveguide display. The focus accommodation system includes switchable polarization retarders that rotate a polarization of light of the generated image, where the light passes through the switchable polarization retarders along an imaging path in which the generated image is viewable. The focus accommodation system also includes polarization sensitive gratings alternatingly interspersed with the switchable polarization retarders. Each of the polarization sensitive gratings are configurable to diffract the light in a first polarization state and transmit the light in a second polarization state. The variable focus is adjustable to a focal distance at which a user perceives viewing the generated image as displayed by the waveguide display.

  • Patent number: 9960965
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for control admission to network resources are provided. Probationary service flows with a reduced priority are provisionally allowed to use network resources. As the network demonstrates its continued stability by the addition of the new probationary flows, each probationary flow can be re-assigned its original priority thereby promoting the probationary flow to a non-probationary status.

  • Publication number: 20180113309
    Abstract: An input-coupler of an optical waveguide includes one or more Bragg polarization gratings for coupling light corresponding to the image in two different directions into the optical waveguide. The input-coupler splits the FOV of the image coupled into the optical waveguide into first and second portions by diffracting a portion of the light corresponding to the image in a first direction toward a first intermediate component, and diffracting a portion of the light corresponding to the image in a second direction toward a second intermediate component. An output-coupler of the waveguide combines the light corresponding to the first and second portions of the FOV, and couples the light corresponding to the combined first and second portions of the FOV out of the optical waveguide so that the light corresponding to the image and the combined first and second portions of the FOV is output from the optical waveguide.
