  • Publication number: 20260146436
    Abstract: A high-strength steel structure joint connection device includes a device body and a connection seat disposed on two opposite side surfaces of the device body. An inner locking block fixedly connected to the side surface of the device body is disposed inside the connection seat. A steel structure body is inserted between the connection seat and the inner locking block. The steel structure body and the connection seat are detachably and fixedly connected through a positioning mechanism. The high-strength steel structure joint connection device can effectively achieve firm connection of steel structure members, ensure structural stability and improve load-bearing capacity under seismic action or in low-temperature environments, while being suitable for various complex structural forms and facilitating installation and disassembly.

  • Patent number: 12637001
    Abstract: A control system for enhancing a vehicle driving experience is disclosed. The control system comprises a lighting system disposed within a vehicle and is at least configured to illuminate one or more locations on one or more passenger seats of the vehicle. The control system further comprises at least one sensor configured to generate an input signal indicative of a number of persons entering the vehicle and/or present within the vehicle. The control system further comprises a controller communicably coupled with the at least one sensor and the lighting system. The controller is configured to determine the number of persons entering the vehicle and/or present within the vehicle. The controller is further configured to control the lighting system to illuminate any one of a central location on a passenger seat from the one or more passenger seats or at least two locations on the one or more passenger seats.

  • Patent number: 12561130
    Abstract: An information handling system may include at least one processor and a memory. The information handling system may be configured to perform a maintenance operation involving a plurality of hosts of an information handling system cluster by: determining a score for each host based on a sum of working memory sizes for all active virtual machines executing on such host plus a sum of persistent storage sizes for all virtual machines stored on such host; based on the determined scores, selecting a first host for upgrading; migrating at least a portion of all virtual machines stored on the first host from the first host to one or more other hosts; and causing the first host to perform the maintenance operation.

  • Patent number: 12554548
    Abstract: An information handling system may include at least one processor and a memory. The information handling system may be configured to assign a workload to a particular node selected from among a plurality of nodes of an information handling system cluster by: determining scores for each respective node of the plurality of nodes based on hardware metrics of the respective nodes; based on the determined scores, selecting a particular node having a highest score; and causing the workload to execute on the particular node.

  • Publication number: 20240103899
    Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods align virtual machines (VMs) with hyperconverged infrastructure (HCl)-based hardware based on a determination of the VM's characteristic type. Each cluster node may be provisioned with a specific combination of hardware. In some embodiments, disclosed methods include determining, for each of the plurality of nodes, a target workload type based at least in part on the combination of information handling resources provisioned on each node. Disclosed methods may manage deployment of the VMs among the cluster nodes based on one or more factors including a workload compatibility factor determined in accordance with a workload type of each VM and a target workload type of each node, where the target workload type may reflect a hardware characteristic of the node.

  • Patent number: 11477301
    Abstract: A method for managing a cloud computing platform including an edge-side and a cloud-side sends a data collection service from the cloud side to the edge side environment to collect edge data indicative of one or more microservice architecture (MSA) parameters associated with one or more microservices in the edge side. An measurement of the edge data is performed to identify dependencies between one or more MSA parameters and one or more edge environment settings. Based at least in part on the MSA measurement, one or more edge environment optimizations are identified and one or more appropriate fixes are implemented within a cloud-side modified edge environment. Before distributing the modified edge environment to the edge, an in-cloud verification of the cloud-side modified edge environment.

  • Patent number: 9441331
    Abstract: A three-dimensional urban road system capable of intensively utilizing land and avoiding traffic jam, including a straight section, a longitudinal slope section and an intersection. The straight section and the intersection are connected to form a road network. The longitudinal slope section is connected with the straight section, realizing connection between the straight section and the ground. The straight section includes a bottom road, a parking layer and a running layer; parallel ramps for small cars only arranged such that small cars in the straight section can switch among the three layers. Roads are changed into three layers: the upper running layer for small cars; the middle parking layer, a transfer layer for parking and connecting the ground road and the upper running layer; and the bottom road for large vehicles. Large vehicles and small cars are completely shunted, thus effectively solving the problem of traffic jam.
