Abstract: A stowage cradle system incorporated into a dispensing gun for extruding a work material from a cartridge is provided for stowage of a work material cartridge closure therein. The stowage cradle system includes at least one engagement member disposed in an interior space of one of the handle or the trigger of the dispensing gun to define a stowage space for the work material cartridge closure. The engagement member has a pair of laterally spaced arms extending longitudinally from an arcuate wall disposed therebetween. A retention opening is defined between the pair of arms and the arcuate wall. End portions of each of the arms have a projecting portion extending into the retention opening to reduce the opening dimension therebetween. By that arrangement, the work material cartridge closure is releasably frictionally retained within the retention opening by the projecting portions of the pair of arms of the engagement member.

The computer system may include: at least one processor; a user interface configured to present an electronic data management application and a metrics toolbar; and at least one memory storing instructions that are executable by the at least one processor, wherein the instructions cause the at least one processor to: receive a user selection of a metric type from a predefined set of metric types; receive one or more configuration parameters associated with the selected metric type; and generate a visual representation of the configured metric within a metrics toolbar presented on the electronic data management application, wherein the visual representation comprises a computed metric value based on scheduled event data and the configuration parameters.

Abstract: Systems and methods of managing an event on a data organizer application are disclosed. One method may include: detecting an event associated with an electronic data organizer of a user; presenting a control menu associated with the event, the control menu comprising an event attendance toggle; receiving input directed to the event attendance toggle; assigning, based on the received input, the event to a first layer or a second layer of the electronic data organizer, wherein events in the first layer are positioned in front of events in the second layer; designating an availability state of the user for a duration of the event, wherein the availability state corresponds to an available state or an unavailable state; displaying the event in the first layer or the second layer based on the received input; and broadcasting the availability state of the user to at least one other user.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a catalyst for water electrolysis using a fluorine-doped support, comprising: preparing a support; doping fluorine onto the support; and forming a metal particle catalyst on a surface of the fluorine-doped support, and to a catalyst for water electrolysis manufactured thereby. The present invention uses a dry plasma process to omit the cleaning process and can easily form fluorine doping on the surface without causing structural collapse of the support material.

Abstract: For a given application, increasing the size of a cache is beneficial up to a certain point and the number of hits does not increase significantly with a greater cache size. This disclosure provides a method to determine a miss ratio curve, for a cache having data blocks with a time-to-live. A hashed value of a data block's key address can be used to generate a 2D HLL counter for storing expiry times of the data blocks. The 2D HLL counter can be converted to a 1D array, from which a stack distance can be calculated. A frequency distribution of stack distances can then be converted into a miss ratio curve, from which an appropriate cache size can be selected.

Abstract: A method includes measuring a first temperature at a control panel using a temperature sensor included at a battery of the control panel. When the first temperature at the control panel exceeds a predetermined threshold temperature, this method includes transitioning the control panel to a reduced operational mode. When the control panel is in the reduced operational mode, this method includes measuring a second temperature at the control panel using the temperature sensor included at the battery of the control panel. And, when the second temperature at the control panel exceeds the predetermined threshold temperature, this method includes outputting an abnormal temperature notification at the control panel.

Abstract: In a user device such as a smartphone, frequent display screen activation causes undesirable power consumption and other inconveniences to the user, such as taking out his smartphone from a pocket to look at its screen, which increases the chances of his smartphone being dropped or damaged. Based upon such problem recognition, the present inventor conceived various inventive features that allow user relevant information to be provided onto a so-called display slate, without having to activate the display screen of the user device. Such an interactive display platform allows for performing a wireless pairing operation between a user device and at least one display slate located in proximity to the user device, providing, on the display slate, user relevant information related to or received from the user device without the screen of the user device being activated, and allowing, via the display slate, the user to interact with the user relevant information provided thereon.
