Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for treating a food allergy in a subject in need thereof. The method entails delivering an effective amount of an allergen associated with the food allergy into the subject's cutis skin layer. Delivering the allergen is carried out by inserting one or more allergen-coated solid microneedles into the subject's skin. The one or more solid microneedles each has a base, shaft and tip, and when inserted in the subject, do not extend beyond the cutis. The allergen is allowed to dissociate from the one or more microneedles while inserted in the subject's cutis. Once the allergen disassociates, the one or more microneedles is removed from the subject's skin.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to an electrode produced with a non-toxic solvent, resulting in a homogeneous mixture with uniform distributions of a conductive additive and a binder. Electrodes produced according to the present disclosure feature narrow binder particle size distribution, which distinguishes such electrodes from typical electrodes produced via a N-Methyl-Pyrrolidone (NMP) process. The resulting microstructure promotes the flow of current through the electrode and has an improved cycling stability due, in part, to the binder's and the conductive additive's ability to bind with the active material particles used in the fabrication of the electrode.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to system(s) and method(s) for generating an alert based on change in traffic pattern. The system receives historic traffic data and current traffic data, associated with each road segment, from a set of road segments. Further, the system identifies a change traffic pattern based on analysing the historic traffic pattern and the current traffic pattern, using data analytics and a machine learning algorithm. Furthermore, the system identifies a sub-set of road segments, from the set of road segments, based on comparison of the change in traffic pattern and a pre-defined threshold. The system further determines root cause of change in traffic pattern by analysing the sub-set of road segments. Further, the system generates an alert for updating one or more road segments, from the sub-set of road segments, based on the root cause of change in traffic pattern.

Abstract: Techniques for power gating. A first on-die router has an output port to receive data from a switching fabric. The output port is placed in a power-gated state if there is no activity in the output port for a current cycle and no messages are to be received by the output port during a subsequent cycle. A second on-die router has an input port coupled with the output port of the first on-die router. The input port is placed in a power-gated state if an input port buffer is empty and the output port is not active. Power-gating of the input port and the output port are independent of each other.
