Abstract: Examples of systems and methods for calibrating or operating a magnetic sensor for sensor temperature or operating conditions are provided. The magnetic sensor can comprise a dual magnetometer sensor that comprises a first, low-power-consumption magnetometer (e.g., a magneto-inductive magnetometer) and a second higher-power-consumption magnetometer (e.g., a magneto-resistive magnetometer). The second magnetometer can have a lower unit-to-unit variation in temperature calibration parameters and can be used to temperature-correct readings from the first magnetometer. The magnetic sensor can dynamically switch between usage of the first magnetometer and the second magnetometer in order to provide a dynamic sample rate that can depend on conditions within the sensor or external to the sensor.

Abstract: A system includes a machine configured to perform operations including accessing an integrated circuit design including a buffer tree that interconnects a plurality of inputs and buffers. The buffer tree includes a baseline timing characteristic. The operations include identifying a set of candidate solutions for improving the baseline timing characteristic using an initial timing model and selecting a subset of candidate solutions that have a timing characteristic lower than the baseline timing characteristic. Then the subset of candidate solutions are evaluated using a detailed timing model and based on determining that at least one candidate solution in the subset has a timing characteristic that is better than the baseline timing characteristic, selecting a candidate solution from the set of candidate solutions, and updating the buffer tree based on the candidate solution.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a mouse-human chimeric antibody preferably recognizes the MUC1 glycopeptide epitope RPAPGS(GalNAc)TAPPAHG (SEQ ID NO.: 34) on the surface of cancer cells, and the encoding sequences, wherein the monoclonal antibody having a light chain and a heavy chain. Moreover, the present invention provides humanized light and heavy chains, and the encoding sequences. The results of paired expression show that humanized antibodies also recognize the MUC1 glycopeptide epitope RPAPGS(GalNAc)TAPPAHG (SEQ ID NO.: 34) on the surface of cancer cells, and show the same specificity as the parental antibody.
