Abstract: Improved seating arrangements for a vehicle cabin of a passenger transport system, in particular of an aircraft are disclosed. Examples herein provide improved seating arrangements providing a high density of seats and increased PAX numbers while ensuring privacy, comfort and a direct aisle access to each passenger. For example, the seating arrangements provided herein are applicable to narrow body aircrafts and wide body aircrafts, in particular in view of business class solutions.

Abstract: A database server may receive or monitor user engagement metadata corresponding to a plurality of communication messages transmitted to the users. The database server analyzes the metadata to determine optimal transmission frequencies for digital communication messages based on engagement rates received in the user engagement metadata.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a pre-treatment quality assurance (QA) of a radiotherapy device may be provided. The method may include determining a measured dose image through an electronic portal dose imaging device (EPID). The method may include determining an energy fluence distribution map related to radiation beams predicted by a first portal dose prediction model. The method may include determining a predicted dose image based on the energy fluence distribution map and a simulated energy response curve related to the EPID. The method may further include determining differences between the measured and predicted dose images by comparing the dose distributions of the measured and predicted dose images.

Abstract: A monument configured to be positioned in the interior of an aircraft that includes first, second, third and fourth sides and first and second lavatories spaced apart from one another by at least a portion of a galley storage section that is open to the first side. The first and second sides are opposite to one another and the third and fourth sides are opposite to one another. The first lavatory defines a first lavatory interior and includes a first toilet therein and the second lavatory defines a second lavatory interior and includes a second toilet therein.

Abstract: An example method to deploy a web client plugin in a virtualized computing environment may include obtaining information identifying a virtual machine at a management entity and generating configuration information that includes the information identifying the virtual machine. The method may further include registering, with the management entity, the configuration information to deploy the web client plugin as a web client extension. The registration is performed such that, in response to an access to the virtual machine via the web client plugin, the web client plugin is able to automatically identify the virtual machine based on the configuration information.

Abstract: An example method is provided to perform policy-based data placement in a virtualized computing environment. The method may comprise receiving a request to create a virtual disk for a virtual machine in the virtualized computing environment. The request may include a usage type associated with the virtual disk. The method may further comprise, based on a data placement policy associated with the usage type, determining a datastore on which to place the virtual disk and to store data of the usage type associated with the virtual disk.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a computer system creates a first template VM that includes a first OS VMDK and a first software binary VMDK, and clones the first template VM to create a linked clone VM. The linked clone VM executes a guest OS by accessing the first OS VMDK and a software application by accessing the first software binary VMDK. The computer system further creates a second template VM that includes a second software binary VMDK, where the second software binary VMDK includes one or more upgrades to the software application that are not included in the first software binary VMDK. The computer system then detaches the first software binary VMDK from the linked clone VM and attaches the second software binary VMDK to the linked clone VM. The linked clone VM thereafter executes the software application by accessing the second software binary VMDK.

Abstract: An aircraft has at least one floor having a longitudinal axis extending in a flight direction of the aircraft, a plurality of seats and a galley on the floor, and a plurality of carts or container for food, beverages, or utensils in the galley. A receiving space in the galley for the carts or containers extends parallel to the longitudinal axis and has a horizontal dimension transverse to the longitudinal axis that varies.

Abstract: A passenger seating arrangement for an aircraft cabin that includes first and second adjacent columns of at least two seats that define a first longitudinally extending center axis that extends approximately parallel to a longitudinal axis of the aircraft cabin. The seats in the first column face away from and form an angle with the first axis of between about 1° and about 44°, and the seats in the second column face away from and form an angle with the first axis of between about 1° and about 44°. Each seat in the first column is staggered fore of a seat in the second column.

Abstract: An aircraft has side walls, a floor between the side walls and having an exit area and an exit compartment, a plurality of seats on the floor, a galley on the floor, a plurality of carts movable on the floor inside and outside the galley, and a monument on the floor capable of temporarily containing at least one of the carts. The exit area is capable of temporarily containing another of the carts. The monument has a door through which a person can enter or leave the monument, a further wall section movable between a closed and open position such that in the open position one of the carts can be pushed into the monument, and a slide element for guiding a cart into the and out of the monument past the wall section in the open position thereof.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a computer system creates a first template VM that includes a first OS VMDK and a first software binary VMDK, and clones the first template VM to create a linked clone VM. The linked clone VM executes a guest OS by accessing the first OS VMDK and a software application by accessing the first software binary VMDK. The computer system further creates a second template VM that includes a second software binary VMDK, where the second software binary VMDK includes one or more upgrades to the software application that are not included in the first software binary VMDK. The computer system then detaches the first software binary VMDK from the linked clone VM and attaches the second software binary VMDK to the linked clone VM. The linked clone VM thereafter executes the software application by accessing the second software binary VMDK.
