Abstract: A method and system of verifying asphalt mat temperature values and location data generated by a paving machine includes identifying a location and temperature value of a threshold thermal characteristic of thermal data generated by the paving machine, and displaying the paver-generated location and temperature value of the threshold thermal characteristic on a display of the paving machine. The method further includes determining a location and temperature value of the threshold thermal characteristic by one or more external systems, and comparing the externally-determined location and temperature value to the paver-generated location and temperature value.

Abstract: Techniques are described for determining locations of interest based on user visits. In some situations, the techniques include obtaining information about actual locations of users at various times, and automatically analyzing the information to determine particular locations in a geographic area that are of interest, such as for frequent destinations visited by users. After determining a particular location of interest, it may be represented by generating a corresponding location model to describe the geographic subarea or other location point(s) covered by the determined location of interest, and one or more points of interest (e.g., businesses, parks, schools, landmarks, etc.) may be identified that are located at or otherwise correspond to the determined location of interest. In addition, a determined location of interest may be further used in various ways, including to identify later user visits to that location (e.g., to a point of interest identified for the location).

The system includes a computing device that executes instructions to: read the information, validate, via a network and the address, the public key and private key are associated with the blockchain, and present an indication of whether or not the information is validated.
Abstract: A method and system for detecting imperfections on a surface of a touchscreen of an electrical device, comprising: swiping a test object, such as a fingertip, a fingernail or a pin, along at least a portion of the touchscreen; producing, by the touchscreen, an electric signal indicative of the test object's contact with the touchscreen; receiving an acoustic signal by an acoustic sensor, during the swipe of the test object along the touchscreen; analyzing, by a processor, at least one of the electric signal and received acoustic signal; and determining existence of imperfections on the touchscreen's surface based on the analysis.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for staged user enrollment using audio devices. In one embodiment, among others, a system includes a computing device and program instructions. The program instructions can cause the computing device to receive a configuration profile for configuring a client device. The configuration profile includes a device policy associated with an organizational group. The program instructions can further cause the computing device to generate a sound payload based on encoding the configuration profile onto a sound signal. A request is received a request from a voice assistant service for configuring the client device. The request is associated with configuring the client device according to the device policy. The sound payload is transmitted to the voice service for broadcasting from a speaker device. The sound payload is broadcast within an audible distance of the client device.
Abstract: The present disclosure provides a sphere-packing lattice electroporation device configured for use as a stand-alone unit or in an automated multi-module cell processing environment and configured to decrease cell processing time and cell survival. The sphere-packing lattice utilizes lattice-forming beads that are uniform in size and that self-assemble into a crystalline-like lattice.
Abstract: Migration of a pairing of wearable device to a new companion electronic device is disclosed. In one embodiment, pairing migration is performed by syncing and verifying a migration key in the wearable and new companion device. Pairing migration includes moving settings and pairing data of the wearable to the new companion device in response to detecting the wearable is associated with the migration key, wherein the migration key establishes a validation of trust of the wearable relative to the companion device. The settings and pairing data can include configuration and protected data and one or more keys to establish a trust relationship between the wearable and new companion device. The settings and pairing data can also include device data such that the wearable can be discoverable by the new companion device.

Abstract: An illumination unit is described that includes a first light source positioned on a first axis and a second light source on a second axis that intersects and is angularly offset with respect to the first axis. The illumination unit includes a reflector having an aperture through which the first axis extends and a reflective surface angled with respect to the first axis and second axis.
Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for automated packetless network reachability analysis are disclosed. An analysis is performed of network configuration data for a network comprising a host computer. Based at least in part on the analysis, one or more ports at the host computer that are reachable from another computer are determined. Based at least in part on the analysis, one or more routes to the one or more ports are determined. A report is generated that is descriptive of the one or more ports and the one or more routes.

Abstract: A method of supporting active bandwidth part (BWP) switching under carrier aggregation (CA) is proposed. To avoid longer switching delay and multiple interruptions in other component carriers (CCs)/cells, the starting time of the later active BWP switching in one cell should fall outside the switching delay of the earlier active BWP switching in another cell. If the later active BWP switching is DCI-based, then the network should schedule the later active BWP switching outside the switching delay of the earlier active BWP switching. If the later active BWP switching is timer-based, then the UE should not perform the later active BWP switching until the earlier active BWP switching is completed.

Abstract: A pump includes a cam plate, and an input shaft for rotationally driving the cam plate. A pump housing at least partially surrounds the cam plate and defines a cam plate oil reservoir around at least a portion of the cam plate. A bearing support is at least partially disposed within the cam plate oil reservoir. The bearing support defines a bearing oil reservoir at least partially surrounding a portion of the input shaft. At least one passage extends between the bearing oil reservoir and the cam plate oil reservoir. Dynamic motion imparted on oil within the cam plate oil reservoir facilitates migration of oil from the cam plate oil reservoir through a bearing at least partially supported by the bearing support into the bearing oil reservoir and through the at least one passage into the cam plate oil reservoir.
