US Classification:

703 20, 703 22, 714 42

Abstract:

Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to simulating storage devices. In aspects, a test automation engine instructs a simulator to simulate a storage device having certain characteristics such as a storage area network. The test automation engine then tests an application against the simulated storage device. Tests may include storage management requests and storage access requests. A provider may translate a request to one or more operations suitable to perform the request on the underlying simulated device. Shadow copies and the results of other storage management-related operations may be shared across computers via aspects of a simulation framework described herein.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707803, 707695

Abstract:

Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to tracking file system namespace changes during transactions. In aspects, a filter monitors operations that may affect a tracked portion of a transactional file system's namespace. When an operation that affects the tracked portion is received, a data structure is modified to track the changes. Nodes within the data structure are marked to indicate whether they can be seen inside or outside of the transaction. If the transaction commits or rolls back, nodes within the data structure are deleted and made visible as appropriate.

US Classification:

707826

Abstract:

Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate enforcing quotas in transactional file systems. In aspects, a filter monitors operations that may affect quota usage/charge of a file system object having a quota allotment. In doing so, the filter determines a quota value outside of any transaction for the object and a quota value associated with at least one transaction affecting the object. The filter receives a request that involves the use of additional quota. The filter then determines whether to allow or fail the request depending on whether enough quota is available to satisfy the request.

International Classification:

G06F 12/16
G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707203, 707E1701

Abstract:

In accordance with one or more aspects of the application-managed file versioning, a request to store a new version of a file is received from an application, the request having been generated by the application. A filename for the new version of the file is generated, derived from a standardized naming convention. The filename includes a first portion having at least a portion of a name of the file, and a second portion having data indicating that the new version of the file is a version of the file. A set of application programming interfaces (APIs) can be exposed that allow the application to manage file versions, such as creating a new version of a file, identifying one or more versions of the file, listing one or more versions of the file, and deleting one or more versions of the file.

US Classification:

51426624

Abstract:

The present invention is concerned with a liquid delivery form of Elinogrel for the treatment of thrombosis which is notable for its improved dosage properties and stability. The dosage form is a liquid or a lyophilized form which is reconstituted for an injectable formulation comprising: a) at least about 3 mg/ml or up to about 15 mg/ml Elinogrel or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (post reconstitution or in liquid form), and b) at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient. Further aspects of the present invention concern the preparation and use of such a formulation.

Abstract:

A topic-processing system processes topics in a set of documents in a two-stage manner. In the first stage, the system recognizes candidate topics in the set of documents using a machine-trained named-entity recognition (NER) model, to produce original NER information. In a second stage, the system aggregates the original NER information over the set of documents, to produce aggregated information. The system then ranks the candidate topics in the set of candidate topics based on the aggregated information using a machine-trained classification model, to produce a set of ranked topics. The system then selects a set of final topics from the set of ranked topics, e.g., by excluding ranked topics having scores below a prescribed threshold value. A production system presents supplemental information regarding selected final topics, where those final topics are identified by the topic-processing system.

International Classification:

G06K 9/62
G06Q 10/08

Abstract:

A computing system including a processor configured to receive training data including, for each of a plurality of training timesteps, training forecast states associated with respective training-phase agents included in a training supply chain graph. The processor may train a reinforcement learning simulation of the training supply chain graph using the training data via policy gradient reinforcement learning. At each training timestep, the training forecast states may be shared between simulations of the training-phase agents during training. The processor may receive runtime forecast states associated with respective runtime agents included in a runtime supply chain graph. For a runtime agent, at the trained reinforcement learning simulation, the processor may generate a respective runtime action output associated with a corresponding runtime forecast state of the runtime agent based at least in part on the runtime forecast states. The processor may output the runtime action output.

Abstract:

The described technology is generally directed towards automatically scaling distributed computing resources of a distributed computing system based on a system load measurement and a trend factor indicative of whether the system load is increasing or decreasing. If a computing resource load value is above a resource addition threshold value and the trend factor indicates that the computing resource load is increasing, a corresponding computing resource is added to the distributed computing system. If a computing resource load value is below a resource removal threshold value and the trend factor indicates that the computing resource load is decreasing, a corresponding computing resource is removed from the distributed computing system. The trend factor can be obtained using a moving average convergence divergence (MACD) direction indicator.
