Light module of motor vehicle for generating spot distribution of high-beam-light distribution and vehicle headlights having such module

A light module of a motor vehicle generates a spot distribution of a high-beam-light distribution formed by superimposition of the spot distribution and a base distribution generated by at least one other module. The light module comprises a plurality of separately controllable sub-modules that generate a plurality of stripe-shaped segments of the spot distribution that supplement it. Also, a headlight generates the high-beam-light distribution and comprises the light module. Furthermore, a headlight system comprises a pair of the headlights disposed in a front region toward sides of the vehicle and each of which generates the high-beam-light distribution. The headlights include corresponding light modules that generate stripe-shaped segments of left and right sides, respectively, of the spot distribution such that the stripe-shaped segments of the light modules of the headlights supplement the spot distribution or are at least partially superimposed thereon.

Enhancement of database performance in a Domain Name System

The invention relates to a mechanism for enhancing database performance in a Domain Name System (DNS). In order to optimize the performance of current de-facto DNS name servers for queries that request data related to a E.164 number, a domain name received in a first format is converted into a second format before it is supplied to database operations. In the second format at least two successive labels of the domain name are combined to form a single label. The conversion may be made in connection with a zone transfer and in connection with a subsequent DNS query.
