Abstract: A communication device, computer program product, and method provide improved communication performance by a wearable communication device. The communication device receives multipaths of a millimeter wave (mmWave) signal created by a wearable radio frequency (RF) reflecting surface being worn by a person. Controller of the communication device identifies a first direction from which a direct path downlink signal is received and a second direction from which a corresponding a multipath downlink signal is received. The controller determines that the multipath downlink signal is being reflected from the wearable RF reflecting surface. In response to determining that the multipath downlink signal is being reflected from the wearable RF reflecting surface, the controller synchronizes and aggregates the direct path downlink signal and the multipath downlink signal to produce a processed downlink signal that is a better signal than the direct path downlink signal.

Abstract: A notification service may act as an intermediary between sources of text-based communications (e.g., message channels within a communication and collaboration platform) and the intended recipients of action items contained in messages posted to these sources. The notification service may store, for each action item, an instance of a universal actionable notification data structure specifying, among other things, response options for the action items, and may, for a specific user, aggregate action items intended for that user across multiple sources, aggregate and send notification messages generated from the respective instances of the universal actionable notification data structures to a central notification inbox accessible by the user, and upon receipt of a response from the user, generate and post a response message to the source from which the action item originated.

Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure include at least one processor that receives a data set of a data stream from a data source, where the data set includes a time-varying data points. The processor determines event observations associated with data points of the time-varying data points based on a detection model to identify types of the event observations, including: i) anomalies, ii) change-points, iii) patterns, or iv) outliers. The processor generates anomaly records in an event data store based on the event observations and automatically generates event records for at least one of the anomaly records based on variables of at least one dimension of the time-varying data points, where the event record links one or more event observations. The processor automatically applies changes in the event record to each event observation of the one or more event observations based on the linking by the event record.

Abstract: Aspects of the innovations herein are consistent with a storage system for storing variable sized objects. According to certain implementations, the storage system may be a transaction-based system that uses variable sized objects to store data, and/or may be implemented using data stores, such as arrays disks arranged in ranks. In some exemplary implementations, each rank may include multiple stripes, each stripe may be read and written as a convenient unit for maximum performance, and/or a rank manager may be provided to dynamically configure the ranks. In certain implementations, the storage system may include a stripe space table that contains entries describing the amount of space used in each stripe. Further, an object map may provide entries for each object in the storage system describing the location, the length and/or version of the object.
Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for real-time visualization of a material during ultrasonic non-destructive testing. The system includes a graphical user interface (GUI) capable of showing a three-dimensional (3-D) image of a composite laminate constructed of a series of two-dimensional (2-D) cross sections. The GUI is capable of displaying the 3-D image as each additional 2-D cross section is scanned by an ultrasonic testing apparatus in real time or near real time, including probable defect regions that contain a flaw such as a hole, crack, wrinkle, or foreign object within the composite. Furthermore, in one embodiment, the system includes an artificial intelligence capable of highlighting defect areas within the 3-D image in real time or near real time and providing data regarding each defect area, such as the depth, size, and/or type of each defect.
