Abstract: A composite implant having multiple open-pore biodegradable polymer layers mechanically supported by a permanent structure positioned between adjacent polymer layers drives a native response for cellular infiltration, which facilitates progressive cellular-driven remodeling, cellular organization, and native extra-cellular matrix (ECM) deposition. This leads to endogenous tissue remodeling of the implant over time. The support structure provides mechanical support to the implant to effectively carry impressed mechanical load while the remodeling process is ongoing. The polymer layers are formulated to fully degrade over time, leaving only the new native tissue supported by the permanent support structure.

Abstract: A system and method for end-to-end transaction management, for example, for a structured finance market. The system and method digitizes and deconstructs complex interconnected transaction documents. The system creates transparency around the complexities of the transactions, generating significant efficiencies for existing market participants and enabling access to previously hidden and/or inaccessible data. In some embodiments, the platform supports a selected ecosystem (compared to specific use-cases within a market vertical) with a seamless integration of frameworks and schemas for the organization and structure of provisions, analytical tools extracting the required data, and the creation of metrics to informatively assess and calibrate the market. The system advantageously creates a digital language providing a tool, which will further enable the digitization of the finance ecosystem.

Abstract: The system invention describes a support and improved method of application and removal. The support, comprised of a network of flexible, non-porous, multi-lumen tubing interlaces at a plurality of junctions to form a lattice structure. Apertures designed to accommodate boney prominences also permit air or water to reach the skin underneath and encourage rapid fluid flow internally through the lattice. A hydrophobic, thermal-resistant, flowable padding layer is injected within a secondary lumen to the lattice structure, spanning its complete surface area. As a result, the breathability of the support is not affected by this padding layer because it mirrors the apertures of the lattice. At least one liquid is injected into the structure and configured to transform into a solid when acted on by an external mechanical stimulus.

Abstract: One variation of a method includes: training a first model to predict failures within the first population of satellites within a first time window based on a first set of historical timeseries telemetry data and a first set of historical timeseries failure data; and training a second model to predict failures within the first population of satellites within a second time window, shorter than the first time window, based on the first set of historical timeseries telemetry data and the first set of historical timeseries failure data. The method further includes: predicting a first probability of failure of the first satellite within the first time window based on the first model and the first set of timeseries telemetry data; and predicting a second probability of failure of the first satellite within the second time window based on the second model and the first set of timeseries telemetry data.

Abstract: An integrated circuit may be provided with cryptocurrency mining capabilities. The integrated circuit may include control circuitry and a number of processing cores that complete a Secure Hash Algorithm 256 (SHA-256) function in parallel. Logic circuitry may be shared between multiple processing cores. Each processing core may perform sequential rounds of cryptographic hashing operations based on a hash input and message word inputs. The control circuitry may control the processing cores to complete the SHA-256 function over different search spaces. The shared logic circuitry may perform a subset of the sequential rounds for multiple processing cores. If desired, the shared logic circuitry may generate message word inputs for some of the sequential rounds across multiple processing cores. By sharing logic circuitry across cores, chip area consumption and power efficiency may be improved relative to scenarios where the cores are formed using only dedicated logic.

Abstract: Mining circuitry may be used to mine digital currency such as bitcoins by computing solutions to a cryptographic puzzle. Successful computation of a solution to the cryptographic puzzle may provide a reward of the digital currency. The mining circuitry may partition the mined reward between a first digital wallet and a second digital wallet. The first digital wallet may be user-provided, whereas the second digital wallet may be hardcoded into the dedicated mining circuitry. The mining circuitry may include control circuitry and multiple processing core circuits. The control circuitry may control the processing cores to solve the cryptographic puzzle via exhaustive search over possible inputs to the cryptographic puzzle.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of enabling another person to easily acquire the current status of a person who has difficulty transmitting information indicating the current status of said person's body to the other person. A detection unit 12 detects a physical amount based on pressure from at least a portion of a person's leg. A management unit 11 transmits prescribed information from a transmission unit 112 when the physical amount detected by the detection unit 12 satisfies a prescribed standard. The transmission unit 112 can also transmit, as prescribed information, information that is used to specify a position at which a transmission device 1 is present. Through this, the abovementioned problem is solved.
