Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the photovoltaic generation of electrical energy. The present invention relates more particularly to photovoltaic arrays for use in photovoltaically generating electrical energy. Aspects of the present invention provide a variety of photovoltaic roofing elements and systems that include, for example, interlocking geometries to provide for water handling and integration with conventional roofing materials; wire management features that can protect wiring and associated electrical components from physical and/or environmental damage; and wind clip and ledge features configured to prevent against wind uplift of the photovoltaic roofing elements when installed.

Abstract: A method for improving a call-participant behavior, the method includes receiving an intensity data signal and an intensity variation data signal related to an ongoing call, receiving a pitch data signal and a pitch variation data signal related to the ongoing call, receiving a tempo data signal and a tempo variation data signal related to the ongoing call, receiving a channel comparison data signal related to the ongoing call, generating a real-time call progress signal based on the intensity data signal, the intensity variation data signal, the pitch data signal, the pitch variation data signal, the tempo data signal, the tempo variation data signal, and the channel comparison data signal, and sending the real-time call progress signal to a user device.

Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus are described herein for continuously measuring voice clarity and speech intelligibility by evaluating a plurality of telecommunications channels in real time. Voice clarity and speech intelligibility measurements may be formed from chained, configurable DSPs that can be added, subtracted, reordered, or configured to target specific audio features. Voice clarity and speech intelligibility may be enhanced by altering the media in one or more of the plurality of telecommunications channels. Analytics describing the measurements and enhancements may be displayed in reports, or in real time via a dashboard.

Abstract: A method and system for managing memory resources in a system used in conjunction with a navigation application program that accesses geographic data. The geographic data are comprised of a plurality of data records. The plurality of data records are organized into parcels, each of which contains a portion of the plurality of data records, such that the data records in each portion of the plurality of data records that forms each parcel are accessed together. One or more buffers each that forms a contiguous portion of the memory of the navigation system is provided as a cache to store a plurality of parcels. One or more data structures located outside the contiguous portion of memory identify the parcels of data stored in the cache and the locations in the cache at which the parcels are stored. The one or more data structures located outside the contiguous portion of memory in which the parcels are cached are used to manage the parcel cache to use it efficiently.
