Abstract: Processing received job requests for a multi-versioned distributed computerized service. For each received job request, the job request is channeled to an appropriate service processing node that depends on the version of the distributed computing service that is to handle the job request. A version of the distributed computing service is assigned to the incoming job request. A service processing node that runs a runtime library for the assigned service version is then identified. The identified service processing node also has an appropriate set of one or more executables that allows the service processing node to plan an appropriate role (e.g., compiler, scheduler, worker) in the distributed computing service. The job request is then dispatched to the identified service processing node.

Abstract: Processing a job request for multiple versions of a distributed computing service. The service processing node does this by at least interleavingly (e.g., via time sharing with rapid context switching, or by actually concurrently) running a first runtime library associated with a first service version of the distributed computerized service and a second runtime library associated with a different service version of the distributed computerized service. While running the first runtime library, job requests of a first service version may be at least partially processed using a first set of one or more executables that interact with the first runtime library. While running the second runtime library, job requests of a second service version may be at least partially processed using a second set of one or more executables that interact with the second runtime library.

Smart device generates a temporary data packet comprising a temporary key, which is transmitted by light blinking, thereby greatly improving the confidentiality of data transmission. A controller detects a blinking optical signal sent by the smart device through a photosensitive component of the controller, and performs parsing to obtain a temporary data packet; the controller encrypts network information of a wireless network by using a temporary key, and sends to smart device through wireless network; the smart device decrypts the network information after receiving, obtains a long-term key after performing operation on network information, encrypting communication by using long-term key, and adding encrypted communication into wireless network. In this way, confidentiality for accessing wireless network by smart device is greatly improved.

Abstract: A linear constant current LED drive device capable of driving reduced number of LEDs, comprises: a rectifier module, an energy storage component, a switch module, a constant current supply module, a measurement module and a control module. When voltage differences between two ends of both switch module and constant current supply module are less than according threshold voltages, control module turns on switch module, enabling rectifier module to charge energy storage component and LED string lights. When voltage difference between two ends of either switch module or constant current supply module exceeds according threshold voltage, control module turns off switch module, enabling energy storage component to charge LED string lights. So rectifier module and energy storage component supply electricity to plurality of LED string lights alternately, number of LEDs can be reduced, while maintaining high drive efficiency.

Abstract: A debridement enzyme for necrotic tissue is described that is not dependent upon proteolytic enzymatic activity but instead utilizes the amylase family of enzymes. The amylases (?-, ?-, ?-amylase) are noted for the cleavage of the ?-glycosidic bonds of polysaccharides, yielding lower molecular weight carbohydrate/sugar fragments. It has now been found that ?-amylase is effective in the debridement of devitalized tissue.

Abstract: A system and method for content generation and targeting using machine learning are provided. In example embodiments, a probability that a user will visit a webpage based on historical data is calculated. A probability that the user will engage with a particular content category based on past user engagement is calculated. In response to the probability of the user engaging with the particular content category being equal to or greater than a first threshold, the content is generated. Further, in response to the probability of the user not visiting a webpage meeting or exceeding a second threshold, the generated content is sent to the user.

Subsequently, a message can be generated based on the selected first connection update.

Abstract: A device for protecting a direct current source and method are provided. Electric energy outputted from the direct current source is stored and an enable signal is received by the hiccup drive circuit. In a case that the enable signal is an OFF-ENABLE signal, the driving signal is generated based on the electric energy stored internally. By periodically switching on the switching device based on the driving signal, the output voltage of the direct current source is periodically short-circuited. Therefore, the issue of a large conduction loss in the conventional art is avoided, which is caused by the fact that a minimum required voltage for driving the electronic switch is required to be continuously provided by the output voltage of the direct current source.
