Abstract: A silicone edge graphic mountable to a window with suction cups is shown. The silicone edge graphic may have a frame where the suction cups are attached to the frame and offset from the frame so that the frame is not touching a mounting surface of the window or the wall of the window when mounted to mitigate damage to the window or wall. When the silicone edge graphic is mounted to the window, the frame may rest on a support surface, such as a window sill or the ground, to provide additional support for the weight of the silicone edge graphic.

Abstract: A coagent masterbatch comprising a semi-crystalline polyolefin carrier resin and an alkenyl-functional coagent. An electron-beam curable formulation comprising the coagent masterbatch and a polyolefin compound. A method of making the masterbatch and formulation; an electron-beam-cured polyolefin product prepared therefrom; a manufactured article comprising or made from the masterbatch, formulation, or product; and a method of using the manufactured article.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing real-time fault management or real-time fault management system (“RFM”). In various embodiments, RFM may receive alerts from or associated with network devices (e.g., layer 2, 3, and/or 4 devices, or the like) that are disposed in a plurality of disparate networks that may utilize different alert management protocols and/or different fault management protocols. RFM may collect, enrich, normalize, aggregate, and display the alerts in a user interface to facilitate addressing of the alerts by a user. To enable continuous and real-time functionality, RFM may be implemented in a plurality of siloed platforms in a primary data center, with processing of alerts being load balanced across the siloed platforms, with mirrored group of siloed platforms in a secondary data center located geographically distant from the primary data center and configured to be on “hot standby” and to completely take over RFM processing operations.

Abstract: Atomic layer etching of a substrate using a wafer scale wave of precisely controlled electrons is presented. A volume of gaseous plasma including diluent and reactive species and electrons of a uniform steady state composition is generated in a positive column of a DC plasma proximate the substrate. A corrosion layer is formed on the substrate by adsorption of the reactive species to atoms at the surface of the substrate. The substrate is positively biased to draw electrons from the volume to the surface of the substrate and impart an energy to the electrons so to stimulate electron transitions in the corrosion layer species, resulting in ejection of the corrosion layer species via electron stimulation desorption. The substrate is negatively biased to repel the electrons from the surface of the substrate back to the volume, followed by a zero bias to restore the steady state composition of the volume.

A second difference may be determined across respective third and fourth workflow elements in a second hierarchical level of the respective first and second IT workflow data. A display representing the first and second differences may be generated.

Abstract: A system includes a controller module, which includes a storage device, a controller, a modulator, and one or more antennas. The storage device is stored with parameters defining a stimulation waveform. The controller is configured to generate, based on the stored parameters, an output signal that includes the stimulation waveform, wherein the output signal additionally includes polarity assignments for electrodes in an implantable, passive stimulation device. The modulator modulates a stimulus carrier signal with the output signal to generate a transmission signal.
