  • Publication number: 20240061813
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for performing a data sync operation are described. A described technique includes receiving an indication to start a data synchronization between a first version of a computer design model and a second version of the computer design model. In some implementations, first data is extracted from the first version and second data is extracted from the second version. The first data is compared with the second data. Based on the comparison, the first data is updated using the second data, the second data is updated using the first data, or the first data is updated using the second data and the second data is updated using the first data. A geospatial representation is generated using at least one of the updated second data or the updated first data.

  • Publication number: 20240054255
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for rendering multi-layer computer-aided design related documents are described. A described technique includes accessing layers associated with a floorplan, the layers including a visual layer that depicts the floorplan and an interactive layer that enables user interaction with the visual layer. The layers can have different sizes. The technique includes determining outer boundaries for a selected layer. The technique includes generating a boundary layer based on a polygon defined by the outer boundaries that surrounds layer content. The technique includes scaling, based on the boundary layer, one or more of the layers to have a size that is within a threshold distance of the boundary layer's size, and after scaling, aligning the visual layer and the interactive layer in a merged graphics layer so that the interactive layer can detect user interaction with a corresponding portion of the visual layer.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for performing a layer mapping operation are described. A described technique includes receiving a drawing file comprising a first set of layers. A template that defines one or more protocols that control the layer data value aggregation is selected. A set of data values associated with one or more layers in the first set of layers is aggregated in response to applying at least one of the one or more protocols to the drawing file. A second set of layers is generated using the set of data values. A layer mapping output that specifies a second set of layers is generated. The layer mapping output is provided as an input to an application module of a space management program.

  • Patent number: 11474577
    Abstract: Cooling of an electronic device that includes a first portion and a second portion is provided. The first portion and the second portion are rotatable relative to each other. A first sensor measures a first temperature at a first location within or on the electronic device continuously or intermittently. A second sensor measures a second temperature at a second location within or on the electronic device continuously or intermittently. A processor identifies a first state of the electronic device or a second state of the electronic device. The processor controls operation of the electronic device based on the first measured temperature and the second measured temperature when the electronic device is in the identified first state and controls the operation of the electronic device based on the first measured temperatures but not based on the second measured temperatures when the electronic device is in the identified second state.
