Abstract: The present disclosure provides an N protein epitope mutation marker for preparing an epitope deletion-marked vaccine strain of type II porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and use thereof, belonging to the technical field of biological products. In the mutation marker, one or more amino acids are mutated based on an epitope sequence at positions 92 to 103 of a C-terminal of an N protein of the type II PRRSV; and the epitope mutation marker has an amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, where X1 is selected from the group consisting of T, P, and A; and X2 is selected from the group consisting of V and A.

Abstract: A self-service apparatus having a three-layer system architecture includes an application-layer device, an intermediate-layer device, and bottom-layer peripheral devices. The application-layer device is configured to provide a user interface for self-service and control the entire self-service apparatus according to an interaction with the user to provide the user with required self-service, and comprises a first processor and a first memory. The first processor executes an application program stored in the first memory and communicates with the intermediate-layer device. The intermediate-layer device comprises a terminal control module which comprises a second processor and a second memory. The second processor communicates with the bottom-layer peripheral devices, and the second processor executes a control program stored in the second memory to control operations of the peripheral devices based on an instruction from the application-layer device.

Abstract: Electric power systems, control systems and associated operational methods are described. According to one aspect, an electric power system includes plural load controllers that are configured to control the supply of electrical energy from the system to plural loads, a control system that determines an amount of power in reserve and available to be provided to the electric power system, uses the determined amount of power in reserve to determine different values for a plurality of setpoints that correspond to a parameter of electrical energy that is supplied by the system to the loads, and the load controllers monitor the parameter of the electrical energy that is supplied by the system with respect to the setpoint values and to adjust an amount of the electrical energy that is supplied from the electric power system to the loads as a result of the monitoring of the parameter by the load controllers.

Abstract: Tools and techniques for contact grouping and gesture recognition for surface computing are provided. These tools receive, from a finger grouping subsystem, data representing velocity parameters associated with contact points, with the contact points representing physical actions taken by users in interacting with software applications presented on a surface computing system. These tools also identify gestures corresponding to the physical actions by analyzing the velocity parameters, and provide indications of the identified gestures to the software applications.
