The invention discloses a dynamic automatic drive lane-changing trajectory planning method based on real-time environment information. A rollover limitation trajectory vertical coordinate, an optimal trajectory and a collision avoidance trajectory terminus security area are calculated; the relation between the rollover limitation trajectory vertical coordinate and the security area is compared, the positional relation between the optimal trajectory vertical coordinate and the security area is further compared, and then lane-changing decision-making is conducted. According to the dynamic automatic drive lane-changing trajectory planning method based on the real-time environment information, and a polynomial trajectory equation which dose not depend on time is adopted to represent a lane-changing trajectory curve, so that the problem that hypotheses of a speed and an accelerated speed are too strong is avoided; furthermore, collision avoidance algorithm and rollover prevention algorithm which are based on reaction time are introduced to guarantee security of lane-changing; then the optimal trajectory in a safe trajectory cluster is determined through real-time speed adjusting; and finally, an optimal lane-changing trajectory of real-time dynamic state is output through a trajectory generation module to guide an autonomous vehicle to complete a lane-changing behavior, and therefore a set of complete dynamic autonomous vehicle lane-changing trajectory planning module is built.

A content delivery network (CDN) service provider extends a content delivery network to gather information on atomically identifiable web clients (called “user agents”) as such computer-implemented entities interact with the CDN across different domains being managed by the CDN service provider. In one embodiment, a set of machines, processes, programs, and data comprise a data system. The data system tracks user agents, preferably via cookies, although one or more passive techniques may be used. A user agent may be a cookie-able device having a cookie store. As the user agent navigates across sites, a CDN-specific unique identifier used by the system to correlate user agents is generated. Preferably, the unique identifier is stored as an encrypted cookie. The unique identifier represents one user agent (and, thus, one cookie-able device's store). The system tracks user agent behavior on and across customer sites that are served by the CDN, and these behaviors are classified into identifiable “segments” that may be used to create a profile. CDN customers use the data system to obtain information that characterizes the user agent.

A manufacturing process is migrated from an existing operation to a configure-to-order (CTO) system. As the CTO operation will eliminate the “machine-type model” (MTM) inventory of the existing operation, the emphasis is shifted to the components, or “building blocks”, which will still follow the build-to-stock scheme, due to their long leadtimes, and hence still require inventory. The solution involves an inventory-service trade-off of the new CTO system, resulting in performance gains, in terms of reduced inventory cost and increased service level. Other benefits include better forecast accuracy through parts commonality and risk-pooling, and increased customer demand, as orders will no longer be confined within a restricted set of pre-configured MTMs.
