Abstract: In an example implementation, a method of processing a 3D object model includes receiving render data of a 2D slice of a 3D object model and generating distance values indicating how far away voxels in the 2D slice are from a nearest edge of the 3D object model. The method also includes detecting a feature of the 3D object model from the distance values, and generating modified render data to be subsequently used in a 3D printing system to produce the feature in a 3D part.

Abstract: A hot-plugged PCIe device configuration system includes a PCIe device with a PCIe configuration space having PCIe configuration space registers. A computing system includes a PCIe connector and a PCIe setting record database storing a first PCIe setting record having a first register write location value and first register value information. The computing system detects that the PCIe device has been hot-plugged into the PCIe connector, and uses the first register write location value in the first PCIe setting record to determine a location in the PCIe configuration space that provides a first PCIe configuration space register. The computing system then uses the first register value information in the first PCIe setting record to determine at least one register value change for the first PCIe configuration register, and writes the at least one register value change to the first PCIe configuration space register using the location.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling uplink communication from a user equipment device (UE) that has at least two co-existing air-interface connections including a first air-interface connection with a first access node and a second air-interface connection with a second access node. An example method includes comparing a level of uplink backhaul congestion of the first access node with a level of uplink backhaul congestion of the second access node and, based at least on the comparing, configuring an uplink split ratio defining a distribution of uplink user-plane data flow of the UE between at least the first air-interface connection and the second air-interface connection. In an example implementation, this could involve configuring one of the air-interface connections as a primary uplink path to which the UE restricts its uplink communication unless and until a trigger occurs for transitioning the UE to operate in an split-uplink mode.

Abstract: A Network Function Virtualization (NFV) Software Defined Network (SDN) controls NFV resources consumed by Virtual Network Functions (VNFs). An NFV Infrastructure (NFVI) executes SDN application VNFs, SDN controller VNFs, and SDN data-machine VNFs. The NFVI responsively transfers SDN Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). A VNF control system processes the KPIs to generate and transfer NFV control data to lighten one of the SDN VNFs. The NFVI lightens the one SDN VNF responsive to the NFV control data by increasing access to NFVI hardware for the one SDN VNF.

Abstract: The MEMS gyroscope has a mobile mass carried by a supporting structure to move in a driving direction and in a first sensing direction, perpendicular to each other. A driving structure governs movement of the mobile mass in the driving direction at a driving frequency. A movement sensing structure is coupled to the mobile mass and detects the movement of the mobile mass in the sensing direction. A quadrature-injection structure is coupled to the mobile mass and causes a first and a second movement of the mobile mass in the sensing direction in a first calibration half-period and, respectively, a second calibration half-period. The movement-sensing structure supplies a sensing signal having an amplitude switching between a first and a second value that depend upon the movement of the mobile mass as a result of an external angular velocity and of the first and second quadrature movements.
