Abstract:
Various embodiments for automated error recovery in a computing storage environment by a processor device are provided. In one embodiment, pursuant to performing one of creating a new and rebuilding an existing logical partition (LPAR) operable in the computing storage environment by a hardware management console (HMC) in communication with the LPAR, at least one failure scenario is evaluated by identifying error code. If a failure is caused by an operation of the HMC and a malfunction of a current network connection, a cleanup operation is performed on at least a portion of a current HMC configuration, an alternative network connection to the current network connection is made, and a retry operation is performed.
Abstract:
An interior permanent magnet machine is provided with a rotor that includes a plurality of slots and at least one barrier defined by the plurality of slots. A plurality of first and second magnets are disposed within the barrier. The rotor is configured such that at least one of the first magnets is located at a different radial distance from the center of the rotor relative to at least one of the second magnets. The rotor may be configured to produce an averaging effect similar to that achieved through traditional skewing of rotor magnets. The rotor includes a plurality of poles defined by respective pole axes in the rotor and may be configured to reflect radial asymmetry between poles (pole-to-pole) and/or radial asymmetry within a pole.
Abstract:
A rotor for a permanent magnet electric machine includes an axis of rotation, an outer surface, and a cross-section orthogonal to the axis of rotation with a non-circular contour of the outer surface defined by a plurality of radii angularly distributed around the axis of rotation.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for in-application advertising display on a second computer using a first computer. A request is received on a first computer to display an advertisement on a second computer, the request from the second computer and including an identification of an application and a location information. The first computer selects an advertisement containing a deal comprised of a discount for prepurchase from a first company and a reward from a second company. The second company is selected based on the identification of the application and the selection is based on both the identification of the application and the location information. The first computer transmits the advertisement to the second computer. The first computer receives a signal from the second computer indicating a purchase of the deal by a user of the second computer.
Abstract:
A device and method suitable for the cryopreservation of all types of biological cells is described. In this method, an ultra-fast cooling/warming device system is used to achieve vitrification of individual cells or cell suspensions without cryoprotectant agents (CPA) or with a low concentration of CPAs (
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an image tracking system that tracks the motion of an object. The image processing system tracks the motion of an object with an image recording device that records a first image of an object to be tracked and shortly thereafter records a second image of the object to be tracked. The system analyzes data from the first and the second images to provide a difference image of the object, defined by a bit map of pixels. The system processes the difference image to determine a threshold and calculates a centroid of the pixels in the difference image above the threshold. The system then determines the center of the difference image and determines a motion vector defined by the displacement from the center to the centroid and determines a pan tilt vector based on the motion vector and outputs the pan tilt vector to the image recording device to automatically track the object.
Abstract:
A method for moving object detection is provided. The method includes: obtaining a first image captured by a monocular camera at a first time point and a second image captured by the monocular camera at a second time point (S101); calculating dense optical flows based on the first and second images (S105); and identifying a moving object based on the calculated dense optical flows (S107 and S109). Since the moving object detection method is based on dense optical flows and the monocular camera, both high detection accuracy and low cost can be achieved.
Abstract:
A sequence for distributing at least one of a plurality of code packages to the at least one facility according to different states of a fixed state machine is set. The at least one of the plurality of code packages is installed in at least one staging area. The at least one of the plurality of code packages is maintained in the at least one staging area in a valid, dormant mode while the fixed state machine is stopped. Pursuant to a resumption of the fixed state machine at a subsequent time, a current code package is swapped with the at least one of the plurality of code packages in the at least one staging area to activate the at least one of the plurality of code packages.
Abstract:
A permanent magnet motor includes a permanent magnet rotor, a stator surrounding the rotor having a plurality of teeth radially inwardly oriented toward a longitudinal axis of the stator wherein each tooth has a tooth length and a tooth tip surface geometry. An asymmetric air gap is defined by variations in the tooth lengths and tooth tip surface geometries.
