Abstract: Embodiments of an Extremely High Throughput Station (EHT STA) (STA1) configured for operating in a next-generation (NG) wireless local area network (WLAN) are described herein. In some embodiments, the EHT STA encodes a common signal field (SIG) (Coex-SIG) of an EHT PPDU to include a TXOP duration field. The TXOP duration field is more than seven bits to indicate an actual TXOP duration of a transmission from the EHT STA comprising the EHT PPDU transmitted to a second station (STA2). Decoding the TXOP duration field of the EHT PPDU by a third-party station (STA4) causes the third-party station (STA4) to defer a transmission until after an end of the transmission from the second station (STA2).

Abstract: An adapter assembly includes a switch actuator, an actuation bar, and a latch. The switch actuator is movable between a proximal position, in which the switch actuator actuates a switch, and a distal position. The latch is movable between a first position, in which the latch permits proximal movement of the switch actuator, and a second position, in which the latch prevents proximal movement of the switch actuator. The latch is configured to move from the first position toward the second position in response to the actuation bar moving toward a proximal position.

Abstract: A method for producing one or more hydroxide solids includes providing a catholyte comprising an electrolyte solution; contacting the catholyte with an electroactive mesh cathode to electrolytically generate hydroxide ions, thereby precipitating the one or more hydroxide solid(s); and removing the one or more hydroxide solids from the surface of the mesh where they may deposit.

Abstract: The present methods treat neurofibromatosis by a administering to a subject perillyl alcohol or iso-perillyl alcohol. The present methods also treat neurofibromatosis by administering to a subject a carbamate of perillyl alcohol, or a carbamate of iso-perillyl alcohol. The perillyl alcohol carbamate may comprise perillyl alcohol conjugated with rolipram or temozolomide.

Abstract: Methods and systems are presented for providing rewards and enhanced user experience via blockchain technologies. A reward system uses blockchain technologies to evaluate one or more attributes of a wireless connection between two user devices. A first user can scan a code associated with an instance of a product, where the instance of the product is associated with a second user. A wireless connection can then be established between the two devices, and content stored on the device of the second user and associated with the instance of the product can be transmitted to the device of the first user. Certain attributes of the wireless connection and the content shared can determine what type of reward the second user is given.

Abstract: Methods and systems are presented for providing instant authentication of a product and enhanced user experience with the product via blockchain technologies. A product verification system uses blockchain technologies to track the supply chain process of each instance (e.g., each copy) of a product. Upon receiving a request for authenticating an item, a code provided with the item is scanned. A token corresponding to an instance of a product is determined based on the code. The product verification system traverses a blockchain to access data associated with the token. The item is authenticated based on the data. Additional content provided by the supply chain and/or the manufacturer of the instance of the product may be presented on a user device in response to authenticating the item.

The exemplary portable lab-on-a-chip devices and systems can be configured to execute complex assays such as DNA isolation employing integrated sensor and electronics can analyze results. The EWOD or digital microfluidic cartridge can be configured with customizable assays having preloaded reagents targeted specifically for a given assay that can be used in an analysis in the field (i.e., point of care, i.e., not in a central laboratory) using a disposable or recyclable assay cartridge system. The cartridge and portable instrument can operate on specific instructions based on the algorithm intended for the assay.

Abstract: Methods and systems are presented for providing a token exchange framework that enables exchanges of reward tokens corresponding to different reward systems and/or different merchants. The token exchange framework includes a blockchain for storing transaction data associated with transactions of reward tokens. During the onboarding process, reward systems associated with different merchants may be connected to the blockchain of the token exchange framework via one or more bridges. Reward tokens may be issued to represent reward data corresponding to the different reward systems, and can be freely exchanged within the token exchange framework via the blockchain. When a transaction for redeeming a reward is received, reward tokens in the blockchain can be converted into reward data corresponding to the merchant's reward system and process the transaction with the merchant using the converted reward data.

Abstract: A surgical kit includes a shield for covering a portion of the spine of a subject. The shield can include an attachment portion adapted to engage a bone fixation assembly which is adapted to be fixed on multiple vertebra bones of the subject. The bone fixation assembly can include a vertebra joining member secured between two bone anchors. Each bone anchor can include a fastener portion adapted to be implanted into a vertebra bone and a head coupling portion adapted to secure the vertebra joining member. The shield can be coupled to the bone fixation assembly via separate coupling elements, such as a clip or an adjustable link secured between two vertebra joining members of the bone fixation assembly. Alternatively, the shield can include an integral attachment portion configured to engage the bone fixation assembly directly.
