Systems and methods for autonomous provision replenishment are disclosed. Parts used in a manufacturing process are stored in an intermediate stock queue. When the parts are consumed by the manufacturing process and the number of parts in the queue falls below a threshold, a provision-replenishment signal is generated. One or more self-driving material-transport vehicles, a fleet-management system, and a provision-notification device.

A method for facilitating the testing of a data sample involves a computing device carrying out the following actions: displaying a data sample on a user interface; receiving, via the user interface, a selection of a test to be performed on the data sample; receiving, via the user interface, an input of a result of the test; generating, in a graph database, a vertex representing a visual indicator corresponding to the input result; and creating, in the graph database, an association between the vertex representing the visual indicator and a vertex representing a file containing the displayed data sample.

Provided are a warehousing management system and method. The system includes: a control server, an inventory container, an access device, a temporary container, a workstation and a carrying device. The control server is configured to, in response to a current task, determine a first target inventory container in which a target storage container hit by the current task is located, a first target access device, a target temporary container, a target workstation, and a first target carrying device, and control the first target access device to take out the target storage container from the first target inventory container, carry and store the target storage container to the target temporary container; and control the first target carrying device to move the target temporary container to the target workstation for operation.

Various systems and methods for creating and managing a simulation database system are described herein. A system for creating and managing a simulation database system includes a processor subsystem; and memory including instructions, which when executed by the processor subsystem, cause the processor subsystem to: access an operating scenario, the operating scenario including parameters defining an environment for a simulated autonomous vehicle; access a rule set, the rule set controlling a search mechanism; search for content, the search controlled by the rule set and operable to find content relevant to the operating scenario, the search resulting in search results; process the search results for training autonomous vehicle operation; and store the processed search results.

One embodiment comprises a method in which an integrated multi-user analytics server platform is integrated with a dynamic runtime ETL tool to allow dataflows created or developed in a dynamic runtime environment provided by the ETL tool to be saved in a novel dataflow file container. The method includes: presenting a user interface for an analytics server platform; receiving user input via this user interface indicating an action to be performed as to a first dataflow; the analytics server platform accessing a first file container corresponding to the first dataflow, where the first file container is stored in a data store connected to the analytics server platform; in response to receiving the user input, the analytics server platform accessing APIs of the dynamic runtime ETL tool to initiate the ETL tool, which then performs the action with respect to the first dataflow.

An example method of determining geolocations of objects based on information retrieved from heterogeneous data sources comprises: receiving, from a first data source associated with an object by an ontology-defined relationship, a first dataset including a first data item specifying a first time identifier and a first geolocation associated with the object; receiving, from a second data source associated with an object by an ontology-defined relationship, a second dataset including a second data item specifying a second time identifier and a second geolocation associated with the object; and determining, by applying a rule set associated with the ontology to the first dataset and the second dataset, a geolocation of the object and a corresponding time identifier.

A method of controlling braking of a vehicle is provided. When a disconnector is disconnected and an auxiliary drive wheel is separated from a driving system, vehicle braking is performed with regenerative braking by a primary drive wheel motor during braking. Subsequently, the disconnector is connected based on a vehicle stability state, and then, braking is performed simultaneously on the auxiliary drive wheel and a primary drive wheel.

Extracting and surfacing information corresponding to individual logical topics from enterprise data stores that are separated across multiple geographic regions. A clustering service creates, by utilizing machine learning toolkits that are agnostic to the region in which data is stored, individual topics that have references to multiple shards of data that are stored in different geographic regions. The clustering service also shards the knowledge base state according to the regions from which pieces of data for the particular logical topic was extracted. For example, a first shard containing information extracted from a first document may be stored in a first region whereas a second shard containing information extracted from a second document may be stored in a second region. Responsive to user activity associated with the topic, a serving platform may identify and reconstitute these shards that are stored in different regions so as to surface the regionally extracted and sharded information on that topic to a user.

An embodiment includes deriving usage data associated with records of a database by monitoring requests to perform read operations on the records of the database. The embodiment generates record correlation data representative of correlations between respective groups of records of the database by parsing the usage data associated with the records of the database. The embodiment stores a plurality of records received as respective write requests during a first time interval in an intermediate storage medium. The embodiment identifies a correlation in the record correlation data between a first record of the plurality of records and a second record of the plurality of records. The embodiment selects, responsive to identifying the correlation, a first location in the database for writing the first record and a second location in the database for writing the second record based on a proximity of the first location to the second location.

Data object information processing methods, apparatuses, and systems are provided. The data object information processing system includes a suspension chain conveyance subsystem. The suspension chain conveyance subsystem is deployed in an offline store including first operation regions and second operation regions. The suspension chain conveyance subsystem includes a control component and a conveying track. The conveying track is configured to connect the first operation regions and the second operation regions. The control component is configured to assign a second operation region according to the wave identifier after receiving a notification message from a first operation execution subsystem. First operation tasks of the wave correspond to the same second operation region. A conveyance instruction is sent to the conveying track according to the assignment result, for conveying the first operation container to the corresponding second operation region.
