Abstract: The techniques described herein enable the use of a time factor for traffic management and routing. A system is configured to analyze traffic for a service over a period of time and identify (e.g., learn) traffic patterns that reflect a substantial effect on traffic during a particular real-world event. Using the traffic patterns identified via the analysis, the system can provide valuable time-based traffic information to service providers. A service provider can then create a predefined time-based profile that is used by a traffic manager to switch from a current traffic routing configuration to a different traffic routing configuration that better accommodates an expected traffic load for various endpoints. The predefined time-based profile specifies a scheduled time at which the switch is to occur, and this scheduled time can correspond to a start time for a real-world event that is known to cause an increase or decrease in traffic.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to methods and systems for screening and design of corrosion inhibitors. Conventional techniques in the art for predicting the inhibition efficiency of the molecule are not so accurate, where the inhibition efficiency is one of the important parameter for screening and design of corrosion inhibitors. In the present disclosure, the IE prediction model is developed by training a multi-task network model using the molecular descriptors of different classes of the molecules, and also the experimental conditions of the molecule. Further, a unique screening technique is disclosed that screens the molecules using various parameters including the inhibition efficiency of the molecule, an energy gap of the molecule, a synergistic effect of the molecules and an interaction energy of the molecules. Further the present disclosure allows to design a new molecule by making changes to the molecules that suits based on the end applications.

Abstract: Methods for obtaining in-situ, multi-temperature measurements of fluid properties, such as saturation pressure and asphaltene onset pressure include obtaining a sample of formation fluid using a downhole acquisition tool positioned in a wellbore in a geological formation. The downhole acquisition tool may be stationed at a first depth in the wellbore that has an ambient first temperature. While stationed at the first depth, the downhole acquisition tool may test a first fluid property of the sample to obtain a first measurement point at approximately the first temperature. The downhole acquisition tool may be moved to a subsequent station at a new depth with an ambient second temperature, and another measurement point obtained at approximately the second temperature. From the measurement points, a temperature-dependent relationship of the first fluid property of the first formation fluid may be determined.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to application based design of novel materials. Conventional methods utilize laborious experimentation or costly first principles calculations. Conventional data driven techniques use point cloud-based representation for crystal structures, that suffers from permutation variance which is not inbuilt in a material's representation, the DL model has to learn invariance which may be inaccurate. Other methods use image based representation for crystal structures and separate images for each element type to represent the basis, which is memory and time intensive. Since each element is represented by its own image, it is difficult for model to learn chemical environment and neighborhood pattern of each element. The embodiments used image based representation of materials consistent with physical principles. Also, embodiments utilize elements matrix to obtain atoms and their positions from basis images.
