Abstract: In a memory array with a cross-point structure, at each cross-point junction a programmable resistive memory element, such as an MRAM memory cell, is connected in series with a threshold switching selector, such as an ovonic threshold switch. The threshold switching selector switches to a conducting state when a voltage above a threshold voltage is applied. When powered down for extended periods, the threshold voltage can drift upward. If the drift is excessive, this can make the memory cell difficult to access and can disturb stored data values when accessed. Techniques are presented to determine whether excessive voltage threshold drift may have occurred, including a read based test and a time based test.

The bridge component creates a plurality of corresponding security groups for at least a subset of the plurality of targeting segments for which pre-existing security groups have not been created. For the targeting segments, accessing, with the bridge component, underlying logic used by the content targeting portion to create the targeting segments, and use the logic to determine whether each potential group member matches the logic. Add at least those of the potential group members that match the logic, and are not already present, to an appropriate one of the corresponding security groups; remove those that do not match. Apply security to the resulting updated security groups with the security portion, and distribute content accordingly.

Abstract: In the presence of a network fault condition preventing communication between a communication device and a network device of a first network, a method includes receiving a heartbeat request from the communication device requesting permission for the communication device to perform a device operation. The method further includes obtaining device state data associated with the communication device and determining whether the communication device is permitted to perform the device operation based on the device state data associated with the communication device. When the communication device is permitted to perform the device operation, the method also includes transmitting a heartbeat confirmation signal to the communication device. The heartbeat confirmation signal permits the communication device to perform the device operation.

Abstract: Systems and methods for vehicle motion control are provided. The method includes: calculating a correction factor using one of three different sets of operations when the vehicle is performing a limit handling maneuver, wherein the correction factor is calculated using a first set of operations when the vehicle is operating in an understeer state, calculated using a second set of operations when the vehicle is operating in an oversteer state, and calculated using a third set of operations when the vehicle is operating in a neutral steer state; adjusting a desired lateral acceleration and a desired yaw rate by applying the correction factor to account for a reduced level of friction experienced by the vehicle when traveling on a non-ideal friction surface; calculating optimal control actions based on the adjusted desired lateral acceleration and adjusted desired yaw rate; and applying the optimal control actions with vehicle actuators during vehicle operations.
