Abstract: A processing device initializes a drive strength value of a storage device in an electronic device to a first level. The processing device detects an operation to be performed on the storage device and executes the operation. The processing device monitors a bit error rate occurring in the storage device as a result of executing the operation and determines if the bit error rate satisfies a threshold value. In response to determining that the bit error rate satisfies the threshold value, the processing device increases the drive strength value of the storage device to a second level and re-executes the operation at the increased drive strength value of the storage device.

Abstract: A process for producing bisphenol-A comprises reacting acetone and phenol in the presence of a catalyst system comprising an acidic heterogeneous catalyst and a catalyst promoter comprising at least one organic sulfur-containing compound to produce a reaction effluent comprising bisphenol-A, water, unreacted acetone, unreacted phenol and at least part of the catalyst promoter. At least part of the reaction effluent is distilled to remove water, catalyst promoter and unreacted acetone, and leave a residual stream containing bisphenol A. At least part of the residual stream is then contacted with a basic anion exchange resin to produce a purified stream, from which bisphenol-A is recovered.

The mechanism may comprise a moving magnet design in some embodiments, or a moving coil design in others.

Abstract: A system may detect multiple accesses of an engagement interface from a user. The multiple accesses may include a first group of accesses performed by a first device and a second group of accesses performed by a second device. Both the first device and the second device may correspond to the user. A message may be selected from a set of messages. Moreover, the message may correspond to the engagement interface. The system may identify the first group of accesses as having a greater amount of user interaction with the engagement interface than the second group of accesses. The system may then determine that the selected message has the greatest likelihood of being read on the first device. The selected message may be communicated to the first device based on the determination.

Abstract: SAR imaging may be performed using a short-pulse laser to generate range-resolved reflection data. A short-pulse laser may be advantageous over other techniques to acquire the range-resolved data, especially in cases with very distant targets or other cases with low signal-to-noise ratio information, because a short-pulse laser can determine the range to individual reflectors with a single photon return and is more adaptable to a photon-starved inversion algorithm. This technique can be used with both mono-static and bi-static SAR configurations.

Abstract: A method for managing a readahead cache in a memory subsystem based on one or more active streams of read commands is described. The method includes receiving a read command that requests data from a memory component and determining whether the read command is part of an active stream of read commands based on a comparison of a set of addresses of the read command with one or more of (1) a command history table, which stores a set of command entries that each correspond to a received read command that has not been associated with an active stream, or (2) an active stream table, which stores a set of stream entries that each corresponds to active streams of read commands. The method further includes modifying a stream entry in the set of stream entries in response to determining that the read command is part of an active stream.

Abstract: A method for managing sequential-write-based partitions in a logical-to-physical table cache is described. The method includes locating, by a memory subsystem, a first entry in a first sequential write partition in the cache that maps a first logical address in the set of sequential logical addresses of a read request to a first physical address, wherein each entry in the first sequential write partition corresponds to two sequential logical addresses that were sequentially written to sequential physical addresses of memory components of the memory subsystem. The method further includes determining, based on the first entry, the first physical address associated with the first logical address and a second physical address associated with a second logical address in the set of sequential logical addresses and fulfilling, by the memory subsystem, the read request based at least on the first physical address and the second physical address.
