Abstract: A refuelling system is provided, the system comprising: a plurality of vertically telescoping elements, the telescoping elements containing a constant length of flexible conduit for transfer of fuel; at least one vertically movable pulley to maintain a constant length of flexible hose within the telescoping elements; an overhead gantry capable of moving the vertically telescoping elements in two horizontal essentially perpendicular axes; and a rotating lower portion of the telescoping elements capable of rotating about an essentially vertical axis and supporting a fuel nozzle. The refuelling system of the present invention does not result in significant segments of unsupported lengths of conduits for fuel, compressed air, vapor recovery, electrical power or control or sensor signals. It is relatively simple and utilizes readily available components and parts, and does not required significant machining of components. This results in an installation that is economical to install and operate.

Abstract: Systems, methods, computer-readable media, and graphical user interfaces for presenting search results having collapsed domains are provided. A search result obtaining module obtains search results based upon a received query. Upon obtaining the search results, search results having the same domain are associated with one another. Thereafter, search result clusters of associated search results are formed. In some embodiments, the search result clusters may be formatted to include desired search result cluster attributes. The search result clusters are presented such that two or more associated search results form a single cluster of search results rather than being presented individually. In some embodiments, an option to view more search results with the same domain may be provided.

Abstract: Scripting core commands and aggregations of such commands are provided to script authors to enable them to generate scripts that can be parallel-processed without requiring the author to be aware of parallel-processing techniques. The scripting core commands and aggregations abstract mechanisms that can be executed in parallel, enabling the script author to focus on higher-level concepts. The scripting core commands provided include commands for applying a function in parallel and distributing and joining data in parallel. For added flexibility, one or more scripting core commands can utilize functions written in a different programming language and referenced appropriately in code blocks.

Abstract: Embodiment described herein are directed to an enhanced search engine with multiple feedback loops for providing optimal search results that are responsive a user's search query. The user's search query is parsed, and based on the underlying terms, different linguistic models and refinement techniques generate alternative candidate search queries that may yield better results. Searches are performed for the original search query and the candidate search queries, and different scores are used to select the best search results to present to the user. Results making it onto the list, as well as the underlying candidate search query, linguistic model, or refinement technique for generating that search query, will have their corresponding scores updated to reflect their success of generating a search result. Scores are stored and used by future searches to come up with better results.

Abstract: Provided is an adaptive semantic reasoning engine that receives a natural language query, which may contain one or more contexts. The query can be broken down into tokens or a set of tokens. A task search can be performed on the token or token set(s) to classify a particular query and/or context and retrieve one or more tasks. The token or token set(s) can be mapped into slots to retrieve one or more task result. A slot filling goodness may be determined that can include scoring each task search result and/or ranking the results in a different order than the order in which the tasks were retrieved. The token or token set(s), retrieved tasks, slot filling goodness, natural language query, context, search result score and/or result ranking can be feedback to the reasoning engine for further processing and/or machine learning.

Abstract: Systems and methods for presenting search results ordered, at least in part, based upon indicated user preferences are provided. User preferences for one potential search result over another that are free of position bias are obtained utilizing random relative order interchange of juxtaposed, ranked search results. Upon receipt of a search query, a determination is made to present at least a portion of search results satisfying the received query ordered based on user preferences, whether or not the order coincides with that determined using a ranking algorithm. In this way, presented search results are ordered, at least in part, according to user preferences, thus improving the relevance of the output relative to standard ranking algorithms alone.
