Abstract: The technology described herein is directed towards cooperative configured grant with respect to the configured grant timeslots of multiple cells, particularly for ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC) devices configured for packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) for duplicate packet communications. Selection of slots is delay aware with respect to PDCP communications. By selecting a first serving cell's configured grant physical resource block (PRB) time slots in a timing alignment with a second cell's configured grant PRB time slots, end-to-end PDCP delay is reduced for duplicate communications between a user equipment communicating with the first cell and the second cell for PDCP duplication. Multiple UEs can be prioritized based on their current condition data with respect to slot assignment. Also described is a controller proposing a different configuration of configured grant slots, which the controller can then use if accepted by the deciding entity.

Abstract: An immunogenic composition comprising: a) one or more Plasmodium-derived ribosomal or ribosomal associated protein or immunogenic fragment thereof which has a sequence which is at least about 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, 99% or 100% identical to a ribosomal or ribosomal associated protein or an immunogenic fragment of a ribosomal or ribosomal associated protein recited in FIG. 1; or a ribosomal or ribosomal associated protein or peptide or immunogenic fragment thereof as recited in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3; and/or b) a polynucleotide encoding one or more protein, peptide or immunogenic fragment of a); wherein the immunogenic composition is for use in eliciting an immune response in a subject to treat or prevent malaria. Also provided are Plasmodium-derived ETRAMPs and/or histones, or immunogenic fragments thereof, for use in eliciting an immune response in a subject, preferably to treat or prevent malaria.

Abstract: A water level and well depth measuring device includes a measuring probe, a control switch, a processing unit, an external power source, and a housing. The measuring probe is inserted into a well to determine a depth to a water level and a depth to a well bottom. An insulated cable, which connects the measuring probe and the housing, is used to lower the measuring probe into the well. The control switch, preferably a three-way switch, the processing unit, and the external power source are integrated into the housing. The control switch may be used to alternate between a level-measuring module and a base-measuring module of the measuring probe. The measuring probe is communicably coupled with the processing unit. Therefore, when the level-measuring module detects a water level and when the base-measuring module is at a well bottom, the processing unit activates a visual indicator and an audible alarm.

Abstract: A method for an audiovisual receiver to request an audiovisual transmitter to reset a communication link includes requesting the reset when the audiovisual receiver determines that the communication link is unlocked. The communication is determined to be unlocked when the active geometry of successive audiovisual frames transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver is determined by the receiver to be inconsistent. The communication is also determined to be unlocked when the interval between control bits of the successive audiovisual frames is inconsistent. When one or both of the inconsistencies is determined, the receiver sets an error bit in a register of the receiver that is accessible by the transmitter to determine from the receiver that the communication link is unlocked.

Abstract: A method (300) and apparatus (110) that determines blood oxygenation using a mobile communication device is disclosed. The method can include capturing (320) a plurality of images of skin using an array of pixels in a camera on a portable electronic device. The method can include comparing (330) image characteristics corresponding to the plurality of captured images at a first wavelength with image characteristics corresponding to the plurality of captured images at a second wavelength, the second wavelength being substantially distinct from the first wavelength. The method can include determining (340) blood oxygen level based on comparing the image characteristics.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and methods for computer user profiling based on behavioral biometrics. The approach consists of establishing distinctive profiles for computer users based on how they use a motion-based input device such as, but not limited to, a mouse and/or a keyboard. The profiles computed in the present invention are more accurate than those obtained through the traditional statistical profiling techniques, since they are based on distinctive biological characteristics of users.

Abstract: An input circuit to a semiconductor device may selectively accept different voltage logic levels (e.g., TTL or CMOS) as selected by a preset selection signal. The selection signal activates an N-type or P-type transistor in the input circuit which alters the threshold switching voltage of the input circuit logic. By altering the input threshold voltage, both TTL and CMOS input signals may be correctly triggered. An additional circuitry may be provided to allow a low voltage circuit (e.g., 3.3 Volts) to be tolerant of higher voltage inputs (e.g., 5 Volts). An isolation transistor isolates the input of the circuit from the high voltage signal, while a pulldown transistor pulls a high logic, high voltage signal down to supply voltage level.
