  • Publication number: 20190321506
    Abstract: A method for disinfecting a fluid includes emitting UV light into a flowing fluid pillar along its axial direction. The flowing fluid pillar is surrounded by and in contact with a fluid medium having a refractive index lower than that of the fluid to be disinfected so that total internal reflection occurs when the UV light travels within the flowing fluid pillar. Also provided is a UV disinfector for disinfecting a flowing fluid.

  • Publication number: 20190245757
    Abstract: In certain embodiments, a Service Deployment Infrastructure (SDI) instance is disclosed. The SDI instance can intelligently allocate resources of a rack to one or more virtual machines as part of provisioning a requested service. The SDI instance can use machine-learning techniques to evaluate historical data associated with a requested service. The machine-learning techniques can be used to generate one or more models that simulate the possible configurations of sizes for virtual machines for a particular service. The one or more models can be accessed at runtime to fit virtual machines of a requested service into servers of a rack in a manner that minimizes unused resources with multi-dimensional constraints.
