Title: Tracking change data capture log history
Inventor: Florian Hermann Froese
IPC: G06F16/23
Filed: 2021-10-21
Abstract: A method of tracking change data capture (CDC) log history comprises obtaining a first snapshot of a source system and deriving a set S1 of key-value pairs reflecting the first snapshot. A mirror operation of the source system is performed to obtain CDC change operations representing changes with respect to the set S1, the CDC change operations captured as a set SM of key-value pairs. A first CDC log is obtained as a first sequence SA of key-value pairs including the key-value pairs of the set S1 and the set SM. A second snapshot of the source system is obtained and a set S2 of key-value pairs reflecting the second snapshot is derived. The first sequence SA is compared with the set S2 to derive corrective CDC operations as a set S3 of key-value pairs, the corrective CDC operations representing corrections with respect to the first sequence SA. A second CDC log is obtained as a second sequence SB of key-value pairs including the key-value pairs of the sequence SA and the set S3. The corrective CDC operations ensure that the second sequence SB are, as a whole, coherent with the set S2.

Title: Operating a vehicle
Inventor: GRIGORIY DUBROVSKIY
IPC: B60W60/00
Filed: 2021-12-22
Abstract: A method including receiving at a vehicle processor data indicative of a passenger action and/or appearance; and modifying at least one operational parameter of the vehicle in response to this. The data may be received from a sensor 510 placed within a vehicle and/or from an application on a communication device 508 connected to the vehicle (e.g. user mobile phone, smart watch). The modification of an operational parameter may be changing the route and/or speed of the vehicle, e.g. autonomous vehicle controlled based on a machine learning model including a neural network. The vehicle may change to lower speed or smoother route based on determining the passenger is on a video call or is sleeping (e.g. lying down, slow breath rate). The vehicle may change to a faster speed or route if the passenger is wearing a formal garment (e.g. business suit) or to a quieter route if the passenger puts on earphones. The speed or route of the vehicle may be changed based on the communication device indicating an appointment or meeting time (e.g. in a user calendar), e.g. to arrive at a destination at a pre-set time or to follow a path with internet connectivity during the meeting.
