Abstract: The present invention is a respiratory monitoring device which uses 2+ sensors to map respiratory motion in patients to interpret into a respiratory effort and severity score. The core components of the invention are contact-based sensors that measure relative motion of the chest, abdomen, and/or other key anatomical features, a processing unit which takes in the data from all sensors, an algorithm that analyzes and compares the data from each sensor to understand relative motion and interpret it into clinically-relevant information, and a display screen that shares this information with clinicians. The sensors are connected to each other and the information processing unit which shares data with the screen for display of a respiratory severity score based on analysis of Thoraco-Abdominal Asynchrony (TAA) or similar indicators of respiratory effort as measured by the sensor network and analyzed by the algorithm.

Abstract: Embodiments include methods, systems, and apparatuses for receiving a first type of transmission and a second type of transmission. A WTRU may receive a first downlink control information (DCI) during a first downlink (DL) transmission interval allocating first radio resources in the first DL transmission interval for reception of a first type of transmission. The WTRU may receive data from the first type of transmission in the first radio resources. The WTRU may receive data from a second type of transmission in second radio resources that include one or more predetermined regions within the first radio resources. The WTRU may receive a second DCI during a subsequent second DL transmission interval indicating that the data from the first type of transmission was preempted by the data from the second type of transmission. The WTRU may process the data from the first type of transmission based on the second DCI.

Performing the search may include identifying a first path, starting at the source node, that enters a particular constraint region, and identifying a second path, starting at the source node, that does not enter the particular constraint region. The system may select the second path as a path from the source node to the target node, based on identifying that the first path enters the particular constraint region and that the second path does not enter the particular constraint region. The system may cease exploring nodes via the first path when the second path is identified as reaching the target node, and not including a constraint associated with the particular constraint region.

Abstract: A simulation of an electronic device may use a distribution of atomistic defects to provide more accurate results. An input mesh may be received representing a physical structure of the electronic device. This input mesh may be transformed into a polyhedral mesh to facilitate the simulation. A distribution of defects may then be generated and distributed throughout the polyhedral mesh. When performing each time step of the simulation, the effects of these defects may be attributed to individual cells in the polyhedral mesh and incorporated into the simulation equations for each volume. For example, charge and power contributions from the defects may be incorporated into the simulation equations to more accurately model the performance of the device.
