Abstract: AI-based orchestration. In an embodiment, a recommendation engine is applied to a data pipeline representing company accounts. Engagement metric(s) are calculated based on activity data associated with the company accounts, and predictive model(s) are applied to the activity data and/or firmographic data associated with the company accounts to generate predictive output. A tactic recommendation model is applied to orchestration features, comprising the engagement metric(s) and predictive output, to generate recommended tactic(s). In addition, a contact recommendation model is applied to contact data to generate recommended contact(s). The recommended tactic(s) are combined with the recommend contact(s) to generate an orchestration, comprising recommended action(s), to be executed.

The middle portion includes a continuous top edge and a continuous bottom edge. A first zipper is operable between an open and closed position to selectively interconnect the top portion continuous edge to the middle portion continuous top edge. A second zipper is operable between an open and closed position to selectively interconnect the bottom portion continuous edge to the middle portion continuous bottom edge. When the zippers are in the closed position, the top, bottom and middle portions form an enclosed area. When the zippers are in the open position, the top and bottom portions are completely detachable from the middle portion to allow the portions to nest.

Abstract: A network switch includes a first queue that receives a first packet. A second queue receives a second packet. A queue control module determines a desired output time slot of the first packet based on an arrival time and an output rate associated with the first packet, determines a length and a scheduled output time slot of the second packet, and selectively outputs the first packet before the second packet based on the desired output time slot, the length, and the scheduled output time slot.

A method of controlling the stepper motor includes utilizing the controller to output a control signal to the stepping motor according to a target displacement and a first index parameter, utilizing the stepping motor to move the loading device according to the control signal, utilizing the controller to calculate a difference between the target displacement and an actual displacement of the loading device, and utilizing the controller to generate a second index parameter for updating the first index parameter according to the first index parameter, the difference, and the actual displacement.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a transflective mode color liquid crystal display, whose white backlight source is composed of several narrowband monochromatic light sources. A color filter for displaying colors is designed to match the wavelength of each of the monochromatic light sources so that the color filter can let a monochromatic light source of one color be transmitted, while selectively absorb the wavelengths of the monochromatic light sources of other colors. The present invention can achieve high color saturation at the backlight mode while maintaining high reflectance.

Abstract: The present invention provides a multi-color LCD device comprises two liquid crystal panels stacked up and down. A first polarizer, a second polarizer, and a third polarizer or a reflector are disposed above, between, and below these two liquid crystal panels, respectively. Each of the polarizers has a transmission axis and an absorption axis orthogonal to each other. The transmission axis of each of the polarizers lets white light be transmitted. The absorption axes of the first and second polarizers absorb lights of complementary colors. The absorption axis of the third polarizer absorbs white light. Through whether applying voltages onto the two liquid crystal panels or not, different color displaying effects can be achieved. The present invention has the advantage of low cost.
