Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to auditory nerve stimulation to create the perception of sound in the brain of a subject such as an animal or human being. In one form, a system includes an implantable electrode array including a plurality of spaced apart micro-needles. The system also includes a first electrical lead electrically coupled to and extending from the implantable electrode array, and an auditory signal device configured to produce one or more electrical signals representative of communications received from an external processor. An interposer is configured to electrically couple the implantable electrode array and the auditory signal device in an arrangement where one or more electrical signals produced by the auditory signal device may be transmitted through the first electrical lead to the implantable electrode array. Various novel stimulation strategies can be employed, such as place modulated stimulation signals.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods that use an artificial intelligence (AI) model to generate outputs that can be evaluated to predict which logged entry items match entry request record line items of an entry request record. Additionally, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for intelligently detecting anomalies within data sets.

Abstract: In a data center, components of a server are located on a different circuit board than the processor. For example, components such as a network interface controller, storage devices, power supply, and memory are located on one or more circuit boards different than the circuit board on which the processor is located. Having server components on different circuit boards allows the components to be updated on different schedules, reducing resource consumption caused from tying component updates to processor updates. Locating server components on separate server boards also allows virtualization of server components included in a server rack.

Abstract: A system may include a rack that is configured to receive electrical power from a power distribution box and to distribute the electrical power to one or more electrical loads. The system may include at least one power strip having a first circuit and a second circuit that are mounted in the rack. The first circuit may include outlets into which the electrical loads are connected and a first portion of a connector interface. The second circuit may include an enclosure that houses an electrical configuration including at least one power cord that is coupled to the power distribution box and a second portion of the connector interface that is configured to couple the second circuit to the first circuit by mating with the first portion of the connector interface, where the second circuit is removable from the rack and interchangeable with other second circuits that comprise different electrical configurations.

Abstract: A process for reducing the amount of overhead data in ATM cell headers prior to transmission both upstream and downstream on an HFC cable plant or other transmission media using SCDMA on at least the upstream path, without loss of either IP or Ethernet addressing information. A virtual link between each remote unit and a central unit is established using multiplexing to establish a virtual link to every remote unit. Downstream ATM cells are optimized by stripping off all but 2 bytes to leave a 50 byte cell. Incoming IP packets have their IP addressing information used to look up Ethernet domain address information for the RU and destination process to which this RU is coupled. An Ethernet header is appended to each IP packet as is RFC 1483 bytes to signal the start of the packet. The packet is parsed into 48 byte ATM cell payloads. VPI/VCI information for the virtual link of the remote unit to which the packet is bound is looked up using the Ethernet address information.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for carrying an ATM communication protocol on a hybrid fiber coax CATV system. Point to point communication is supported by use of synchronous code division multiplexing on the physical and by assigning on the MAC layer one or more orthogonal SCDMA codes exclusively for use by pairs of devices needing to communicate such the head end and any customer premises equipment. Quality of service or guaranteed bandwidth availability is implemented by controlling the code space at the MAC layer such that certain CPEs having in use peripherals which cannot tolerate interruptions in data flow may reserve one or more SCDMA codes for use exclusively by them. Standard ATM cells are modified by the addition of a two byte virtual link header which identifies to which CPE a particular ATM packet is destined. This virtual header also makes possible broadcast and multicast of packets from the head end to all CPEs.
