Patent number: 10678788Abstract: Techniques are provided for storing in in-memory unit (IMU) in a lower-storage tier and copying the IMU to DRAM when needed for query processing. Techniques are also provided for copying IMUs to lower tiers of storage when evicted from the cache of higher tiers of storage. Techniques are provided for implementing functionality of IMUs within a storage system, to enable database servers to push tasks, such as filtering, to the storage system where the storage system may access IMUs within its own memory to perform the tasks. Metadata associated with a set of data may be used to indicate whether an IMU for the data should be created by the database server machine or within the storage system.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2016Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Roger D. Macnicol, Viral Shah, Xia Hua, Jesse Kamp, Shasank K. Chavan, Maria Colgan, Tirthankar Lahiri, Adrian Tsz Him Ng, Krishnan Meiyyappan, Amit Ganesh, Juan R. Loaiza, Kothanda Umamageswaran, Yiran Qin

Patent number: 10392937Abstract: A construction layout for caverns of an underground nuclear power plant, including: two primary caverns accommodating nuclear reactor powerhouses, electric powerhouse caverns, safe powerhouse caverns, auxiliary powerhouse caverns, nuclear fuel powerhouse caverns, connecting powerhouse caverns, a first primary traffic tunnel, a third primary traffic tunnel, a second primary traffic tunnel, a fourth primary traffic tunnel, and a primary steam channel. The electric powerhouse caverns, the safe powerhouse caverns, and the nuclear fuel powerhouse caverns are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the mountain. Each of the safe powerhouse caverns and each of the nuclear fuel powerhouse caverns are disposed on two sides of each of the two primary caverns in the longitudinal direction of the mountain, respectively. Each of the electric powerhouse caverns and each of the safe powerhouse caverns are located on a same side of each the two primary caverns.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2016Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Assignee: CHANGJIANG SURVEY PLANNING DESIGN AND RESEARCH CO., LTD.Inventors: Xinqiang Niu, Qigui Yang, Baixing Liu, Lixin Liu, Xin Zhao, Lijun Su, Feng Li, Xuehong Yang, Feng Zhao, Xia Hua, Min Li, Weina Yu, Maohua Li, Fei Yu

Publication number: 20190102429Abstract: Techniques related to prefix compression are disclosed. Each value in a set of values has a prefix component and a suffix component. The set of values is divided into at least a first plurality of values and a second plurality of values. Compression of each plurality of values involves determining a prefix component that is shared by each value of the plurality of values. Compression further involves determining a plurality of suffix components belonging to the plurality of values. The prefix component is stored separately from the plurality of suffix components but contiguously with a suffix component of the plurality of suffix components. This enables the prefix component and the suffix component to be read as a value of the plurality of values.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2018Publication date: April 4, 2019Inventors: Shasank K. Chavan, Xia Hua, Cole Jenkins, Sangho Lee

Publication number: 20190102412Abstract: Techniques herein use in-memory column vectors to process data that is external to a database management system (DBMS) and logically join the external data with data that is native to the DBMS. In an embodiment, a computer maintains a data dictionary for native data that is durably stored in an DBMS and external data that is not durably stored in the DBMS. From a client through a connection to the DBMS, the computer receives a query. The computer loads the external data into an in-memory column vector that resides in random access memory of the DBMS. Based on the query and the data dictionary, the DBMS executes a data join of the in-memory column vector with the native data. To the client through said connection, the computer returns results of the query based on the data join.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2018Publication date: April 4, 2019Inventors: ROGER DERMOT MACNICOL, XIA HUA, ALLISON HOLLOWAY, SHASANK KISAN CHAVAN, JESSE KAMP, MARIA COLGAN, TIRTHANKAR LAHIRI
