An improved system and method for publishing messages asynchronously in a distributed database is provided. Clusters of sequencer servers and broker servers may provide services for asynchronously publishing messages about topics including transactions for performing semantic operations on data in the distributed database system. A publisher client may send a message to a sequencer server that may add a sequence number to the message for the topic. The sequencer server may send the message to a primary broker server and a secondary broker server for asynchronous publication to subscribers of the topic of the message. If the primary broker server fails, the message sent to the secondary broker may be distributed to subscribers of the topic of the message. A subscriber client may receive the message and may order the messages received by sequence number for consumption by an application such as a subscriber database engine.

An open network gateway system for use with networks that do not have dedicated Signaling System No. 7 signaling is provided by associating channel-associated signaling received over a first communication line with individual media channels on a second communication line and embedding channel-associated signaling in a media stream in the form of line supervision signaling and register signaling and using a public switched telephone network line supervision driver to monitor and manipulate line supervision signals and interface to the public switched telephone network dial manager. The associated signaling is then backhauled into a media gateway controller for processing and manipulating the data connection.

Motion vectors for encoding a predicted frame relative to a reference frame are determined from a phase correlation of corresponding regions of the predicted frame and reference frame. Peaks in the phase correlation are identified, and the location of the peaks are used as candidate motion vectors. From this limited set of candidate motion vectors, the best motion vectors for predicting blocks within each region can be readily identified.

A microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) based heat engine capable of converting thermal energy gradients into mechanical or electrical energy, as well as its fabrication process is disclosed. This heat engine design consists of a stressed oscillating beam formed from a shape memory alloy (SMA) thin film. As the temperature of the beam changes, its shape changes due to the phase transformation of the shape memory alloy, causing it to oscillate between a hot source and a cold source. Due to the hysteretic behavior of the phase transformation, the oscillating SMA cantilever beam produces a net mechanical work output that may be either converted to electrical energy or mechanically linked to other MEMS devices.

An audio scene is created for an avatar in a virtual environment of multiple avatars. A link structure is created between the avatars. An audio scene is created for each avatar, based on an avatar's associations with other linked avatars.

A network gateway processor architecture including a scalable array of compute processors that function to convert inbound data packets to outbound data packets, an ingress processor coupleable to a first network to receive the inbound data packets and coupled to provide the inbound data packets to the compute processors, and an egress processor coupleable to a second network and coupled to the compute processors to collect and forward the outbound data packets to the second network. The ingress processor distributes inbound data packets to the compute processors based on a least load value selected from current load values determined for the respective compute processors of the scalable array. The current load values represent estimated processing completion times for the respective compute processors of the scalable array of compute processors. Preferably, the current load values are dynamically derived with respect to the size of the inbound data packets and the performance of the respective compute processors.

Disclosed are platforms, systems, media, and methods for implementing a methodological framework for automatically categorizing and summarizing emotions expressed in social chatter by using a “knowledge base” of emotional words/phrases as an input to define a distance metric between conversations and conducting hierarchical clustering based on the distance metric.

A metallic alloy made of metallic constituent elements is fabricated and utilized by first furnishing a mixture of nonmetallic precursor compounds of the metallic constituent elements, and thereafter chemically reducing the mixture of nonmetallic precursor compounds to produce a metallic alloy as a metallic alloy powder, without melting the metallic alloy. The metallic alloy powder is applied to a surface of a substrate article, preferably in a coating, joining, or deposition application.

A signal router, configured to receive information carried by a first signal and transmit the information on a second signal, is described. The signal router, using routing information it gathers, selects the second signal from a number of signals, with the first and the second signals differing in at least one physical characteristic. The signal router operates in a network of a number of such signal routers, and so each one of the signal routers is coupled to at least one of the other signal routers. The routing information is used to create a circuit from a first one of the signal routers to a second one of the signal routers. Once the circuit is created, the information is routed over the circuit. According to one aspect of the present invention, the signals are optical signals.

A gear lubrication arrangement comprises a lubrication pump for circulating lubrication fluid. A power source coupled to the lubrication pump drives the lubrication pump, and a controller controls an output power of the lubrication pump. The gear lubrication arrangement comprises a pressure sensor disposed down-stream of the lubrication pump The pressure sensor is configured to measure a pressure of the lubrication fluid and to produce a pressure indication signal representative thereof. The controller is arranged to vary the output power of the lubrication pump at least partly on the basis of the pressure indication signal.

A method and system for employing a Language Processing machine learning Artificial Intelligence engine to employ word embeddings and term frequency-inverse document frequency to create numerical representations of document meaning in a high-dimensional semantic space or an overall semantic direction. This semantic direction can be used to quantitatively measure semantic similarity between online content consumed by a potential prospect and a given product or product family. The AI can automate the process of creating audiences for on-line marketplaces for programmatic advertising purposes by using representative product descriptions, such as a grouping of product descriptions for scalable, cloud-based databases, and then creating a hyper-focused intent-based audience based on companies that are showing a significant increase in intent.
