Abstract: In an embodiment of the invention, a composition for treating a cell population comprises an Affinity Medicant Conjugate (AMC). The medicant moiety can be a toxin including an acylfulvene or a drug moiety. The affinity moiety can be an antibody, a binding protein, a steroid, a lipid, a growth factor, a protein, a peptide or non peptidic. The affinity moiety can be covalently bound to the medicant via a linker. Novel linkers that can be directed to cysteine, arginine or lysine residues based on solution pH allow greater flexibility in preserving and/or generating specific epitopes in the AMC.

Abstract: Computer implemented methods, according to various embodiments, comprise: (1) integrating a privacy management system with DLP tools; (2) using the DLP tools to identify sensitive information that is stored in computer memory outside of the context of the privacy management system; and (3) in response to the sensitive data being discovered by the DLP tool, displaying each area of sensitive data to a privacy officer (e.g., similar to pending transactions in a checking account that have not been reconciled). A designated privacy officer may then select a particular entry and either match it up (e.g., reconcile it) with an existing data flow or campaign in the privacy management system, or trigger a new privacy assessment to be done on the data to capture the related privacy attributes and data flow information.

Abstract: Workpiece-holding tools and techniques are described. Workpiece-holding tools and techniques are usable to ensure consistent and durable alignment of various workpieces while providing access for performing attachment techniques thereon. In one example, the workpiece-holding tool is configured to allow objects to be held or removably affixed to an alignment surface. Holding objects with the workpiece-holding tool ensures that the alignment of objects with an alignment surface does not change while a user is operating upon a workpiece, e.g., as by joining aligned objects together, without interfering or obstructing access to the objects. The ability to hold objects is enhanced by the inclusion of cutouts that provide increased access to interior surfaces of the workpiece-holding tool, such as to increase the area available for use of clamps or other fastening devices.

Abstract: Technologies are described which permit kernel updates or firmware fixes, and include re-initialization of kernel data structures, without losing user context information that has been created by services, virtual machines, or user applications. Tailored code in a server or other computing system sets a kernel soft reset (KSR) indicator and saves the user context to non-volatile storage. When a KSR is underway, boot code skips the power on self-test and similar initializations (thereby reducing downtime), loads a kernel image, initializes kernel data structures, restores the user context, and passes control to the initialized kernel to continue computing system operation with the same user context. Device drivers may also be re-initialized. The loaded kernel may use newly fixed firmware, or may have a security patch installed, for instance. The non-volatile storage may operate at RAM speed, e.g., it may include NVDIMM memory. The kernel may be validated before receiving control.

Abstract: A conferencing computing device, including memory storing one or more dispatch data structures. The conferencing computing device may further include a processor configured to, at a port, receive, from a sender computing device, a first input packet including first input packet data and a second input packet that includes a copy of the first input packet data, via a first communication channel and a second communication channel, respectively. Based on the input packet data and the one or more dispatch data structures, the processor may add the input packets to a queue of a transport provider bound to the port. The processor may transmit the input packets to an application program instance associated with the queue. The processor may determine that the first communication channel or the second communication channel is disconnected and may maintain communication with the sender computing device through the port via a remaining communication channel.

Abstract: An adjustable-focus PV (picture/video) camera in a mixed-reality head-mounted display (HMD) device operates with an auto-focus subsystem that is configured to be triggered based on location and motion of a user's hands to reduce the occurrence of auto-focus hunting during camera operations. The HMD device is equipped with a depth sensor that is configured to capture depth data from the surrounding physical environment to detect and track the user's hand location, movements, and gestures in three-dimensions. The hand tracking data from the depth sensor may be assessed to determine hand characteristics—such as which of the user's hands or part of a hand is detected, its size, motion, speed, etc.—within a particular region of interest (ROI) in the field of view of the PV camera. The auto-focus subsystem uses the assessed hand characteristics as an input to control auto-focus of the PV camera to reduce auto-focus hunting occurrences.

Abstract: A seat foam inspection gage including a foam displacement indicator is used for inspecting seat foam on site at a manufacturing plant. The seat foam inspection gage includes a cylindrical body and a ball arranged within the body. The seat foam inspection gage also includes an indicator arranged on a top surface of the body, wherein the indicator measures distance of a foam displacement of the seat foam at a seat manufacturing facility. The seat foam inspection gage may take the distance of foam displacement and convert that number into an IFD number, thus allowing for quick comparison of seat foam hardness across an entire seating surface and across all seats being manufactured in a facility without having to send the seat foam to an offsite quality control lab to measure the IFD with large frame machinery.
