Abstract: Techniques for secure data synchronization are described. In one or more implementations, a determination is made as to whether enterprise data is stored locally on a first device corresponding to an enterprise device. Based on a determination that the second device is a non-enterprise device, a determination is made as to whether a permission associated with the first device indicates that the first device is permitted to propagate the enterprise data to non-enterprise devices. If the first device lacks permission to propagate the enterprise data to non-enterprise devices, the enterprise data is prevented from being propagated to the second device.

Abstract: Disclosed are a continuous-curvature convex roll for continuously casting a bloom, and a manufacturing method therefore. An outer contour curve of a working portion of a body of the continuous-curvature convex roll contains a first straight-line segment (AB), a first transition curve segment (BC), an intermediate straight-line segment (CD), a second transition curve segment (DE) and a second straight-line segment (EF). The BC, the AB, and the CD have continuous first-order derivatives, continuous second-order derivatives, and continuous curvatures, thus forming a first transition curve with a continuous curvature. The BC and the DE are mirror-symmetrical. The continuous-curvature convex roll can uniformly deform a blank cast in a deformation area, thereby reducing cracks. The transition curve of the convex roll can be reduced, thereby being capable of further reducing a rolling pressure and the withdrawal resistance.

Abstract: This application discloses a reference signal configuration method and apparatus. Before a network device sends reference signals aperiodically, the network device sends configuration information to a terminal device, where the configuration information is used to indicate a timeslot offset of one or more reference signal resource sets. Therefore, the network device can flexibly send reference signals in different timeslots, thereby reducing a quantity of times of reference signal triggering and measurement result reporting, and improving efficiency of a communications system.

Abstract: A control method for performing a multi-table join operation and a corresponding apparatus are disclosed. Fields in a table whose fields participating in a theta join operation and used in the query statement meet a first preset condition are decomposed, to obtain a plurality of first field groups, so that the theta join operation can be implemented in steps in a form of the plurality of field groups.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to method, system, medium, and implementation of lane planning in an autonomous vehicle. Sensor data are received that capture ground images of a road the autonomous vehicle is on. Based on the sensor data, a current lane of the road that autonomous vehicle is currently occupying is detected. Information indicating presence of a passenger in the vehicle is obtained and used to retrieve a personalized lane control model related to the passenger. Lane control for the autonomous vehicle is planned based on the detected current lane and self-aware capability parameters in accordance with the personalized lane control model. The self-aware capability parameters are used to predict operational capability of the autonomous vehicle with respect to a current location of the autonomous vehicle. The personalized lane control model is generated based on recorded human driving data.

Abstract: Software is increasingly being developed as a collection of loosely coupled applications. Loosely coupled applications exchange data by publishing data to and retrieving data from a data store, such as a database, a file located on a storage cluster, etc. Data produced by one application and consumed by another is referred to as a data dependency. In some embodiments, an application's data dependencies are identified by analyzing cached query plans associated with the application. Query plans include a hierarchical representation of a query, where non-leaf nodes represent commands and leaf nodes identify data dependencies. An application's data dependencies are identified by traversing the hierarchical representation of the query. Data dependencies consumed by the application are identified by finding leaf nodes that descend from a read command, while data dependencies produced by the application are identified by finding leaf nodes that descend from a write command.
