Abstract: Disclosed are a method, apparatus and system for instant message routing. The method includes: receiving a communication request from a source client to a destination client; acquiring the context associated with the source client and the destination client; and selecting a sub-user of the destination client for communication using a policy according to the context. When a source client requests communication with a virtual user, the method can route the communication request using a policy according to the context, to a sub-user of the virtual user which once communicated with the source client.

Abstract: A wrench includes a body having a head and a handle portion defining a longitudinal axis. The wrench includes a first jaw coupled to the head with the first jaw including first teeth and an edge. The edge defines a width of the first jaw. The wrench includes a second jaw extending through an aperture of the head with the second jaw including a threaded portion and second teeth. The wrench includes an actuator coupled to the threaded portion of the second jaw such that rotation of the actuator relative to the second jaw moves the second teeth relative to the first teeth. A length is measured from the edge of the first jaw to the second end of the handle portion parallel to the longitudinal axis. A ratio of the width of the first jaw over the length is less than 0.06.

Abstract: An autonomous driving system includes a number of sensors and a number of autonomous driving modules. The autonomous driving system further includes a global store to store data generated and used by processing modules such as sensors and/or autonomous driving modules. The autonomous driving system further includes a task scheduler coupled to the sensors, the autonomous driving modules, and the global store. In response to output data generated by any one or more of processing modules, the task scheduler stores the output data in the global store. In response to a request from any of the processing modules for processing data, the task scheduler provides input data stored in the global store to the processing module. The task scheduler is executed in a single thread that is responsible for managing data stored in the global store and dispatching tasks to be performed by the processing modules.

Abstract: An event queue is maintained to store IO events generated from a number of sensors and timer events generated for a number of autonomous driving modules. For each of the events pending in the event queue, in response to determining that the event is an IO event, the data associated with the IO event is stored in a data structure associated with the sensor in a global store. In response to determining that the event is a timer event, a worker thread associated with the timer event is launched. The worker thread executes one of the autonomous driving modules triggered or initiated the timer event. Input data is retrieved from the global store and provided to the worker thread to allow the worker thread to process the input data.

Abstract: A global store is maintained to store a number of data structures. Each data structure includes a number of entries and each entry stores data of at least one event in a chronological order. Each data structure is associated with at least one sensor or an autonomous driving module of an autonomous driving vehicle. When a first event associated with a first autonomous driving module is received, where the first event includes a first topic ID, the first topic ID is hashed to identify a first data structure corresponding to the first event. A pointer pointing to a head of the first data structure is passed to the first autonomous driving module to allow the first autonomous driving module to process data associated with the first event.
