Abstract: A system for providing small cell backhaul communications includes a small cell backhaul network including a plurality of small cell network nodes each including transceivers enabling communication with at least two other small cell network nodes. A software defined network (SDN) controller controls the transceivers at each of the plurality of small cell network nodes to establish link configurations between the plurality of small cell network nodes of the small cell backhaul network. The SDN controller implements an optimizer module for managing operation the small cell backhaul network. The optimizer module uses an OpenFlow protocol to gather wireless and power consumption statistics.

The glove box door, the pair of side walls, and the rear wall define a storage volume between them. The glove box further includes a flexible divider pivotally hinged at a lower portion of the storage volume.

Abstract: Systems, instruments, methods, and compositions are described involving removing a portion of the epidermis within a donor site on a subject, and harvesting dermal plugs within the donor site. An injectable filler is formed by mincing the dermal plugs. The injectable filler is configured for injecting into a recipient site on the subject.

Abstract: An apparatus for temporarily connecting a first tool part to a second tool part of a tool includes a plurality of frangible members connecting the first tool part to the second tool part. The frangible members break only after being subjected to a predetermined applied force. The frangible members cooperate to differentially resist loading applied to the tool.

Abstract: A three-dimensional memory device includes an alternating stack of insulating layers and electrically conductive layers located over a substrate. The alternating stack includes a first region in which all layers of the alternating stack are present and a second region in which at least a topmost one of the electrically conductive layers is absent. First memory opening fill structures extend through the first region of the alternating stack, and second memory opening fill structures extend through the second region of the alternating stack. The first memory opening fill structures have a greater height than the second memory opening fill structures. Pocket doping regions extending over a respective subset of topmost electrically conductive layers for the memory opening fill structures can be formed to provide higher threshold voltages and to enable selective activation of vertical semiconductor channels connected a same bit line.

Abstract: Representative embodiments disclose mechanisms to validate statements made as part of a document creation or editing process. As the user edits or creates a document using a document creation/editing application, statements made in the document can be submitted to a validation service in a proactive or reactive manner. The statement validation service receives the statement, resolves any coreferences using a coreference resolution process. Once coreferences in the statement have been resolved and replaced, entities are resolved using an entity resolution process. Predicates are then resolved using a predicate resolution process. Entity-predicate pairs are then used to traverse a knowledge graph to extract information relevant to the statement. Suggested corrections are created from the extracted information and presented to the user via the document creation/editing application.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a system that manages utilization of mobile subscriber identity information including enabling use of such information by different communication devices. The use of the same mobile subscriber identity information by multiple devices can be based on locations and other mobile subscriber identity information can be assigned to devices based on the locations. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A sealing boot for protecting an electrical interconnection includes: a main body having a cavity configured to house an interconnection of two electrical connectors; and a neck merging with one end of the main body and having a cylindrical inner surface that defines a bore that is continuous with the cavity of the main body, the inner surface having an inner diameter that is less than an inner diameter of the cavity of the main body. The inner surface of the neck includes a helical projection comprising a main artery and two tributaries, the tributaries each intersecting a section of the main artery at one end and merging with an end of the main artery at an opposite end.

Abstract: Identifying one or more sub-populations of case individuals from a gross population of case individuals can comprise identifying the one or more sub-populations of case individuals. Case individuals of the first sub-population of case individuals are associated with at least one first sub-population feature. The first case individuals are exclusive from the second case individuals. The first case individuals and the second case individuals together comprise the case individuals of the first sub-population of case individuals presenting first control content to case individuals of the first control sub-population. The first control content is selected according to a first statistical model measuring an average feedback metric of the case individuals of the first control sub-population provided in response to being presented the first control content presenting first test content to case individuals of the first test sub-population.

Abstract: A host system may include metadata mapping logical storage devices and logical addresses therein to physical storage devices and physical addresses therein. For a read operation, the host system, if it is determined that the data is not in cache on the storage system, the host system may determine, from the device-mapping metadata, the physical storage device and physical location (e.g., address range) therein of the data to be read. The data then may be read from the physical storage device over the internal fabric of the storage system without use of a director. Data may be read from the physical storage device to the host system using RDMA communications that do not involve use of any CPU resources on the host system or the storage system.
