  • Patent number: 9743725
    Abstract: A clasp includes a male clasp portion having a tongue having an opening, and a female clasp portion having a generally hollow body. The hollow body has a first opening and a second opening. A movable button is disposed in the body, and the button has a first portion positioned in the second opening of the hollow body and a second portion defining a post. A biasing member is operable to bias the button in a locking position in which the post is disposable across at least a portion of the opening in the tongue when the tongue is disposed in the first opening of the hollow body, and the button is operable to being moved to a release position in which the post is disengagable from the opening in the tongue to allow the tongue to be spaced from the hollow body.

  • Publication number: 20160371181
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that detects anomalous events in a virtual machine. During operation, the system obtains time-series garbage-collection (GC) data collected during execution of a virtual machine in a computer system. Next, the system generates one or more seasonal features from the time-series GC data. The system then uses a sequential-analysis technique to analyze the time-series GC data and the one or more seasonal features for an anomaly in the GC activity of the virtual machine. Finally, the system stores an indication of a potential out-of-memory (OOM) event for the virtual machine based at least in part on identifying the anomaly in the GC activity of the virtual machine.

  • Publication number: 20160277203
    Abstract: A smart home scene switching method and system are disclosed. In the method and system, a priority order of several scenes is calculated dynamically according to status parameters of a current scene and/or historical record of past scenes, and scenes are sequentially switched according to the priority order, based on an event causing scene change and a switching rule between the event and the scene. The smart home scene switching method and system expand switching and selecting of smart home scenes. The scenes are switched according to the priority order, thus simplifying user's switching and selecting operation on scenes and further improving the efficiency of switching scenes, which improves the reliability and stability of smart home scene switching.
