Abstract: Described above is a two-pass method of compressing a data input stream to create a compressed data output stream. The method includes a step of sequentially examining data elements and strings of data elements of the data input stream in a first compression pass using a sliding window compression scheme to find literal data elements and pairs of length and displacement values. The first compression pass includes: coding the literal data elements and the length values with a first minimum redundancy coding tree; coding the displacement values with a second minimum redundancy coding tree; and adding the coded literal data elements, length values, and displacement values to a single data buffer. The method also includes a second compression pass that is performed whenever the single data buffer reaches a predefined capacity.

Abstract: A method and system for maintaining a binary tree of pointers to a stream of data and for searching same. A novel binary tree is created by a search engine in which the nodes associated with strings in the data stream which are closer to the current data stream position are nearer the root of the tree than nodes associated with strings which are farther. As the current position in the stream is advanced, the search engine inserts a new node to the tree for that position as the root node. The tree is then restructured based on the relative value of the strings of each node while preserving the temporal order of the tree such that strings nearer the current position are associated with nodes which are closer to the root. The tree is ideal for searching data for LZ77-based data compression, since a single traversal of the tree returns the longest match length with the smallest offset.

Abstract translation: 用于维护指向数据流的指针的二进制树并用于搜索的方法和系统。 一个新颖的二叉树是由一个搜索引擎创建的，其中与数据流中与字符串相关的节点更靠近当前数据流位置的节点比与更远的字符串相关的节点更靠近树根。 当流中的当前位置提前时，搜索引擎将一个新节点插入该树位置作为根节点。 然后根据每个节点的字符串的相对值重新构建树，同时保留树的时间顺序，使得更靠近当前位置的字符串与更靠近根的节点相关联。 该树是搜索基于LZ77的数据压缩的数据的理想选择，因为树的单次遍历将以最小的偏移量返回最长的匹配长度。

A dual-channel fluid turbine controller includes at least one processor configured to: receive, via an AC channel coupled to an AC output of a fluid turbine, first signals indicating fluctuations in power generated by the fluid turbine operating beneath a grid power supply threshold; access an MPPT protocol; determine a correspondence between the first signals and a portion of the MPPT protocol; apply the portion of the MPPT protocol to a generator of the fluid turbine to generate greater power than would be generated in an absence of the MPPT protocol, wherein the generated power is stored as energy in a capacitor associated with the generator; receive, via a DC channel, second signals indicating a level of energy stored in the capacitor; and use the second signals to determine when to release the stored energy.

Abstract: This disclosure describes many innovations including but not limited to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media containing instructions for controlling an energy generator. A system for controlling an energy generator includes a detector for sensing an indicator of electrical energy generated by the generator; an energy storage component configured, in a first mode of operation, to store energy generated during operation at a sub-threshold level insufficient for real-time supply to an electrical energy sink; an energy converter configured, in a second mode of operation, to provide energy generated during operation above the threshold level for real-time supply of energy to the electrical energy sink; and a controllable switch, electrically associated with the detector, and configured to alternately toggle between the first mode of operation and the second mode of operation based on the indicator to thereby permit energy generated at the sub-threshold level to be collected and intermittently used.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to systems, methods, and computer-storage media for affinitizing datasets based on efficient query processing. In one embodiment, a plurality of datasets within a data stream is received. The data stream is partitioned based on efficient query processing. Once the data stream is partitioned, an affinity identifier is assigned to datasets based on the partitioning of the dataset. Further, when datasets are broken into extents, the affinity identifier of the parent dataset is retained in the resulting extent. The affinity identifier of each extent is then referenced to preferentially store extents having common affinity identifiers within close proximity of one other across a data center.

Abstract: A method of providing data files includes compressing the files using a cross-file compression technique. The technique makes use of ancillary files that are stored along with the data files. The ancillary files include lookup tables and indexes. A lookup table for a data file indicates the position of the last occurrence of individual data values within the data file. Each displacement index for a data file indicates displacements from respective data elements to prior strings of a particular match length that match strings of the particular match length begun by the respective data elements. Indexes corresponding to different match lengths are provided. In response to client requests for subsets of available data files, a server compresses each subset of data files using a pattern-matching compression scheme that attempts to represent given strings by referencing prior matching strings across file boundaries. To find a prior matching string for a string begun by a current data element in a current data file, the server finds a previous matching string in the current data file by referencing the displacement indexes associated with the current data file, and then searches for a larger matching string in previous data files by referencing the lookup tables and displacement indexes associated with the previous data files.
