Abstract: A packet data serving node (PDSN) manages sessions between mobile devices and a packet-based network. The PDSN sends requests to and receives responses from an authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) server. The PDSN includes a packet session manager configured to create, maintain, and terminate the sessions between mobile devices and the packet-based network. The PDSN also includes a global AAA manager configured to determine latency in communication between the PDSN and the AAA server based on latencies of responses to at least two requests which the PDSN sends to the AAA server. The global AAA manager determines an adjustment in a load which may be imposed on the AAA sever based on the determined latency and causes the determined adjustment in the load which may be imposed on the AAA server to be implemented.

Abstract: A side view mirror assembly for minimizing noise generated during movement of a vehicle having the assembly mounted thereto. The assembly includes a sail mountable to the vehicle, an arm mounted to or formed with the sail, and a mirror mountable to the arm. The sail may include a spoiler having a generally triangular cross-section for deflecting air flow away from the vehicle and thereby minimizing noise generated during movement of the vehicle.

Abstract: Computerized systems and methods for use in evaluating user impressions of a product are provided. One method disclosed includes receiving from a developer of a product, a canonical textual description of an intended product audience and an intended use of a product. The product is displayed to potential users, and from each of a plurality of potential users, a user textual description of the product is received. The user textual description indicates a user impression of the intended product audience and the intended use of the product. A computing device may be used to perform semantic analysis to determine correspondence between the canonical and user textual descriptions, and to display the result in a graph or textual form, for example.
