Abstract: Novel compounds of the structural formula (I), and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are inhibitors of NLRP3 and may be useful in the treatment, prevention, management, amelioration, control and suppression of diseases mediated by NLPR3. The compounds of the present invention may be useful in the treatment, prevention or management of diseases, disorders and conditions mediated by NLRP3 such as, but not limited to, gout, pseudogout, CAPS, NASH fibrosis, heart failure, idiopathic pericarditis, atopic dermatitis, inflammatory bowel disease, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease and traumatic brain injury.

Abstract: Consideration of system jitter in selecting a “message passing collectives algorithm” used in a message passing interface. A set of multiple message passing collectives algorithms are ranked against each other with at least some consideration of relative jitter-related performance as between the algorithms. The consideration of jitter includes consideration of “system jitter” (OS jitter and/or network jitter). In some embodiments, multiple rankings are performed for different levels of system jitter.

Abstract: A nonlinear equalizer aids in transmitting data with more speed and accuracy by reducing nonlinear signal distortion such as found in a mud transmission channel in an MWD telemetry system. The nonlinear equalizer receives an input signal that is modified by at least one nonlinear function element. The nonlinear equalizer also includes multiple linear equalizers: one such linear equalizer receives the unmodified input signal, and the other linear equalizers receive output signals from the nonlinear function elements. Output signals of the linear equalizers are summed to provide the nonlinear equalizer's output signal.
