A system and method of reducing consumption of electricity used to cool electronic computer data center, networking, and telecommunications equipment, and to reduce the incidence of thermal failure of electronic components, includes provision of one or more partitions to reduce the volume of the cooled environment supplying coldest possible cooled air from air conditioning systems to a chamber adjacent to racks containing the electronic components, preventing dilution of the supplied cooling airflow by warmer air from outside of the reduced volume environment, and controlling the delivery of cooling air flow through the reduced volume of the cooled environment.

A system and method for optimizing a storage system to support full utilization of storage space are provided. With the system and method, data objects/containers of data objects are assigned retention values when they are created. These retention values may be dynamically modified based on a modification function associated with the data objects/containers. When storage space needs to be freed for the storage of new data objects/containers, the retention values of existing data objects/containers provide a prioritization as to which data objects/containers should be deleted from the storage system and the order by which these data objects/containers are to be deleted to make available storage space for the new data objects/containers. The identification of the data objects/containers that are to be deleted may be based on a dynamically modified delete threshold, a sorted list of retention values, or the like.

A system and method for optimizing a storage system to support short data object lifetimes and highly utilized storage space are provided. With the system and method, data objects are clustered based on when they are anticipated to be deleted. When an application stores data, the application provides an indicator of the expected lifetime of the data, which may be a retention value, a relative priority of the data object, or the like. Data objects having similar expected lifetimes are clustered together in common data structures so that clusters of objects may be deleted efficiently in a single operation. Expected lifetimes may be changed by applications automatically. The system automatically determines how to handle these changes in expected lifetime using one or more of copying the data object, reclassifying the container in which the data object is held, and ignoring the change in expected lifetime for a time to investigate further changes in expected lifetime of other data objects.

A method for breeding beef cattle and mutton sheep standardly on a large scale through photovoltaic facilities includes the four parts that first, a photovoltaic facility greenhouse is built, maize seedlings or high-quality green forage grass Zea mexicana is produced throughout the year to be used as green fodder of beef cattle and mutton sheep; second, the beef cattle and the mutton sheep are bred and bio-organic fertilizer is produced standardly on a large scale through the photovoltaic facility greenhouse; third, photovoltaic power generation is performed for self use, and excessive electricity is connected into the state grid; fourth, a beef cattle and mutton sheep traceable system is built, and foods are made safe and sanitary. Through the method, not only can solar resources be effectively utilized to output clean and green energy, but also efficient planting and breeding can be achieved, by-products are processed into organic fertilizer, and a new path is provided for green agricultural production. Because a full-frame high-standard support system is adopted for the photovoltaic agricultural greenhouse and photovoltaic modules are arranged on the greenhouse, the space of the greenhouse can be effectively utilized, power utilized in the greenhouse can be supplied through a photovoltaic power station, and equivalently, stereoscopic production is formed on the land with the same area.

A computer system employs virtual channels and allocates different resources to the virtual channels. Packets which do not have logical/protocol-related conflicts are grouped into a virtual channel. Accordingly, logical conflicts occur between packets in separate virtual channels. The packets within a virtual channel may share resources (and hence experience resource conflicts), but the packets within different virtual channels may not share resources. Since packets which may experience resource conflicts do not experience logical conflicts, and since packets which may experience logical conflicts do not experience resource conflicts, deadlock-free operation may be achieved. Additionally, each virtual channel may be assigned control packet buffers and data packet buffers. Control packets may be substantially smaller in size, and may occur more frequently than data packets. By providing separate buffers, buffer space may be used efficiently. If a control packet which does not specify a data packet is received, no data packet buffer space is allocated. If a control packet which does specify a data packet is received, both control packet buffer space and data packet buffer space is allocated.

The present invention concerns a method of operating a first-in first-out memory (9) arranged to store measurement data samples measured by a plurality of data measurement sensors (1, 3, 5), which can operate at various sampling rates. The oldest measurement data sample in the memory (9) is arranged to be read first before the newer measurement data samples. The method comprises: receiving measurement data samples from at least two data measurement sensors (1, 3, 5); and saving the received measurement data samples in the memory (9). Each of the measurement data samples saved in the memory is associated with a tag which is also saved in the memory (9) and which identifies the data measurement sensor (1, 3, 5) which measured the respective measurement data sample.

We describe a method of controlling turn off time delay of a switching device of a switch mode power converter (SMPC). The SMPC has an inductive component comprising an input winding coupled to receive power from an input; and a switching device to, when on, conduct input winding current. In embodiments the method comprises applying turn on and turn-off signals to the switching device; applying at least one turn off signal, to initiate turning off of the switching device, and detecting a sensing signal from a further winding of the inductive component, inductively coupled to the input winding, to thereby indicate an end of a turn off time delay or duration. The method controls the turn on signal for a subsequent switching cycle of the SMPC device to regulate the turn off delay time.

The technique described herein provides a way to summarize data and can also minimize unnecessary accesses to a data store. In one embodiment, the technique creates and stores an adaptive range filter that contains a compact summary of the contents of an index for a data store in the form of a trie data structure. Before accessing the index of the data store in response to a query, the technique checks the filter to determine whether the data store does not contain any keys for a specific range of data. If the adaptive range filter indicates that the index contains no keys satisfying the query predicate, the index of the data store and the data itself is not accessed. The adaptive range filter of the technique supports both range predicates and equality predicates. It is adaptive to changes in data and queries by learning the query and data distribution.

The disclosure discloses a method for controlling Drive Test (DT) logged measurement, a DT system and User Equipment (UE). The method comprises the steps of: sending a logged measurement duration time to a UE by a network side or setting the logged measurement duration time by the UE itself; recording and reserving, by the UE, a measurement result obtained by DT; deleting the measurement result by the UE when the logged measurement duration time expires or the measurement result is reported during the logged measurement duration time. The disclosure makes the UE more efficient in reporting the measurement result and managing the storage space, thus saving memory space.
