摘要： A method for rejuvenating a strand-blocked cable having a conductor comprised of a plurality of conductor strands with interstitial volume therebetween blocked by a PIB based mastic, the conductor being surrounded by a polymeric cable insulation. The method comprising installing injection adapters that seal the cable ends of the cable and are usable to inject fluid into the interstitial volume between the conductor strands of the cable; elastically expanding the polymeric cable insulation through the application of pressure to the interstitial volume between the conductor strands of the cable; and injecting at least one injection fluid in which the PIB based mastic is mostly insoluble into the interstitial volume between the conductor strands of the cable.

摘要： An anomalous period of operation of a database management system is detected by analyzing a time series of data points indicating the number of database queries pending processing by the system. Conditions associated with execution of the pending database queries are recorded and analyzed to identify conditions correlated with the anomalous period of operation. A recommendation for tuning the database is generated based on analysis of the conditions.

摘要： Methods and systems are provided for plasma confinement utilizing various electrode and valve configurations. In one example, a device includes a first electrode positioned to define an outer boundary of an acceleration volume, a second electrode arranged coaxially with respect to the first electrode and positioned to define an inner boundary of the acceleration volume, at least one power supply to drive an electric current along a Z-pinch plasma column between the first second electrodes, and a set of valves to provide gas to the acceleration volume to fuel the Z-pinch plasma column, wherein an electron flow of the electric current is in a first direction from the second electrode to the first electrode. In additional or alternative examples, a shaping part is conductively connected to the second electrode to, in a presence of the gas, cause a gas breakdown of the gas to generate a sheared flow velocity profile.

摘要： The computer implemented invention provides a method, corresponding systems and arrangement within a network for detecting changes in the topology, ordering those changes by occurrence and constructing a new topology reflecting the changes. The invention addresses problems with keeping the knowledge of the network topology at each network node current, particularly when the network topology is dynamic, i.e., when links fail and recover at arbitrary times. The topology updating is event driven, as it is activated when some change in the network, particularly with nodes and links occurs. Events cause topology changes to be reported to other nodes in the network. Timestamping of messages allows the messages to be correctly applied as the most recent update or discarded. An algorithm is provided that allows each merchant node to maintain a correct view of the network topology despite link and node failures.

摘要： A robot is controlled using a combination of model-based and model-free control methods. In some examples, the model-based method uses a physical model of the environment around the robot to guide the robot. The physical model is oriented using a perception system such as a camera. Characteristics of the perception system may be are used to determine an uncertainty for the model. Based at least in part on this uncertainty, the system transitions from the model-based method to a model-free method where, in some embodiments, information provided directly from the perception system is used to direct the robot without reliance on the physical model.

摘要： In various embodiments, described herein are systems and methods for ambient light suppression on a photodetector of a LiDAR device. The LiDAR device can be configured to scan laser pulses in such a manner that reflected laser pulses are incident on one column of macro-pixels at a time in a macro-pixel array on the photodetector, where only that column is turned on, and the rest of the columns are turned off. The LiDAR device can further be configured to scan at different angles such that laser pulses from a same portion of a target object can be incident on the turned-on column multiple times to increase the resolution of a LiDAR image. Further, outputs from multiple SPADs in a max-pixel are concatenated to form a multi-level digital signal, and a threshold can be used for discarding or registering the multi-level digital signal for further noise reduction.

摘要： A customer of a computing resource provider is associated with a key provided by a key management system. When the key is generated, a value is generated and encrypted with the key. In response to a detection of a trigger to re-encrypt the customer's key, the encrypted value is used to verify validity of the re-encrypted customer's key before committing it to storage and made available for use.

摘要： A technology is described for resolving device credentials for a device. An example method may include receiving device credentials for management by a service provider. The device credentials may include authentication credentials and a device policy document that specifies permissions used to authorize resource actions requested by the device. In response to receiving a message requesting that a resource perform a resource action associated with the device, the device may be authenticated using the authentication credentials, and the resource action may be authorized using the permissions specified in the device policy document.

摘要： A redox flow battery (“CRB”) performs as an energy storage system and has a negative electrode that directly utilizes CO2 in the battery charge step as an active species instead of metals. The CRB also has a positive electrode utilizing a metallic or non-metallic redox species, and a cation exchange membrane in between the negative and positive electrodes. The negative electrode comprises a porous base layer, a porous intermediate layer containing a metal oxide and a bi-functional catalyst layer for electrochemical reduction of CO2 or carbonate to formate and for formate oxidation to either carbonate or CO2. The bi-functional catalyst can be a PdSn based catalyst, such as PdSn, PdSnIn, and PdSnPb. The metal oxide in the intermediate layer acts as a catalyst support and can be a non-Platinum group metal (PGM) oxide, such as LaCoO3 or LaNiO3.
