Abstract: A current flight path of an aircraft is defined with respect to a two-dimensional mesh plane including a first plurality of nodes. Each node is associated with a pre-designated location. First, second, and third nodes that are the closest to a current aircraft location are identified. Neighboring aircraft data associated with neighboring aircraft disposed within a pre-defined distance of the aircraft is received. The neighboring aircraft data includes a neighboring aircraft location for each the neighboring aircraft. First, second, and third node weights are allocated to the first, second, and third nodes based in part on the pre-designated locations of the first, second, and third nodes with respect to the neighboring aircraft locations. A modified flight path based at least in part on the first, second, and third node weights is generated for display as a suggested flight path on an onboard display device.

Abstract: An electronic gaming device is provided. The gaming device includes a processor. The processor is programmed to: in response to transitioning to a feature game, cause one or more trigger symbols displayed on a reel display to transition to a credit symbol that includes a credit value wherein the credit value is determined by performing a lookup within a first award table, cause the reel display to spin causing a new trigger symbol to be displayed, cause the new trigger symbol to transition to a new credit symbol; and if a total number of credit symbols displayed on the reel display meets a first threshold value, assign a new credit value to the new credit symbol by performing a lookup within a second award table, wherein the second award table includes credit values that are greater than the credit values of the first award table.

Abstract: A data forwarding device belonging to both (1) a segment routing (SR) domain and (2) a label distribution protocol (LDP) domain may be used to perform a method comprising: (a) receiving, by the data forwarding device, information uniquely associated with each of one or more nodes in the LDP domain; (b) associating, for each of the one or more nodes in the LDP domain, a unique SR segment identifier (SID) with the information uniquely associated with the node in the LDP domain, to generate one or more SR SID-to-LDP node associations; and (c) transmitting the one or more SR SID-to-LDP node associations for propagation to at least one other node in the SR domain, whereby the at least one other node in the SR domain will become aware of the one or more nodes in the LDP domain. The SR-LDP border router is aware of all the nodes in SR and LDP domain including the SRGB database (base label, node label, and label range).

Abstract: In the context of data administration in enterprises, an effective manner of providing a central data warehouse, particularly via employing a tool that helps by analyzing existing data and reports from different business units. In accordance with at least one embodiment of the invention, such a tool analyzes the data model of an enterprise and proposes alternatives for building a new data warehouse. The tool, in accordance with at least one embodiment of the invention, models the problem of identifying fact/dimension attributes of a warehouse model as a graph cut on a Dependency Analysis Graph (DAG). The DAG is built using existing data models and the report generation scripts. The tool also uses the DAG for generation of ETL (Extract, Transform Load) scripts that can be used to populate the newly proposed data warehouse from data present in the existing schemas.
