A method and apparatus for performing copying garbage collection is provided. In a computer's memory, objects are stored in a permanent semispace. When a garbage collection event is detected, a garbage collection cycle is commenced. During the garbage collection cycle, the live objects in the permanent semispace are copied into a temporary semispace. After copying all the live objects into the temporary semispace, the live objects are then recopied into the permanent semispace.

A description of a user is estimated based on the context of a user's past and present locations. A disclosed data-processing system continually receives data points for each user that represent spatial and/or temporal events. These events represent, for example, presence of a person at a specific geographic location such as a geographic area or point of interest (POI). The data-processing system evaluates the received data points in relation to one or more of the geographic locations, yielding results that are also based on the demographic characteristics of each visited location and the commercial characteristics of each visited location. The data-processing system evaluates the data points also to determine patterns exhibited in each user's activity or inactivity, and patterns exhibited in the distance traveled and the type of travel. The data-processing system bases the user descriptions on the results of these evaluations.

Systems and computer-implemented methods are provided for comparing, associating and deriving associations between two or more spatial temporal data trails. One or more spatial-temporal data trails comprising one or more places are received at a processor. Each place is identified by a spatial temporal data point. And each spatial-temporal data trail is associated with an individual. The similarity between pairs of places is determined to establish one or more groups of places or one or more groups of individuals. Similarity and/groups can be determined based on demographics associated with the place or individual.

A device, system, and method for storage and display of articles, such as loose articles for use or sale, including a bin having a body, at least a portion of which is translucent or transparent, that allows for close-proximity arrangement, and easy rearrangement, of two or more bins while maintaining ease of retrieval of articles stored and displayed therein, and while allowing visual inspection of the contents of bins so arranged.

A composition of a solution of a metal salt of a dioic acid that provides corrosion resistance and moisture resistance is disclosed for application to post-construction materials. The composition may further include an effective amount of a thinning agent, e.g., isopropyl alcohol, ethanol, xylene or similar composition for application directly to the surface of the post-construction material. The composition is effective for reducing corrosion of post-construction materials, including unreinforced concrete or reinforced concrete, and reduces the permeation of moisture and/or the extension of cracks/fissures within the post-construction material. The composition may be applied to the post-construction material through brush applications, spray applications, mist applications or the like.

A method and software for managing memory are provided in which objects residing in session memory are formatted so the references contained in the objects are in a machine-independent format, namely, that the references are encoded numerically. An exit table is provided to handle references with session memory that refer to locations in call memory, in which each entry in the exit table is associated with a corresponding reference in session memory and contains a pointer to the location in call memory.

A roofing tile having upper and lower ends and upper and lower surfaces, a transverse groove of substantially semicircular cross section in the upper surface of the roofing tile adjacent its upper end, and a transverse groove of substantially semicircular cross section in the lower surface of the roofing tile adjacent its lower end. A solar water heating system incorporated in a roof comprising roofing tiles having overlapping portions provided with registering transverse grooves of substantially semicircular cross section facing each other, with thermally conductive tubes in the registering grooves. A roofing tile which is a clay tile containing a thermally conductive material, with at least the exposed portion of the upper surface having a permanent black coating to enhance solar heat absorption.
摘要:
A description of a user is estimated based on the context of the user's travel pattern. A disclosed data-processing system continually receives data points originating from the user's cell phone, for example, wherein each data point represents a visit by the user to a particular geolocation, at a particular time. The system then partitions the received data points into groups, wherein the groups represent the different places that the user has visited. The system counts how many data points are in each group. Based on the number of data points in each group, as well as the number of groups, the system then determines the entropy of the received data points that correspond to the particular user, which is also regarded as the entropy of the user's travel pattern. The data-processing system then estimates a user description for the user, based at least in part on the determined user entropy.

摘要:
An efficient and scalable system for identifying a commodity having a specific, unique topocompositional profile has been developed that includes: enrolling at least one commodity in order to capture its topocompositional profile; matching the at least one commodity with a plurality of commodities in a commodity database; and integrating the topocompositional profile into a commodity grading system. A method of identifying a commodity having a specific, unique topocompositional profile, includes enrolling at least one commodity in order to capture its topocompositional profile; matching the at least one commodity with a plurality of commodities in a commodity database; and integrating the topocompositional profile into a commodity grading system.
