Abstract: A control system may include a blower configured to output an airflow via a blower output flow passage. A heating system may be configured to receive the airflow from the blower. A heating system valve may be positioned between the heating system and the blower. A computing system may be communicatively coupled to the blower, the heating system, and the heating system valve. The computing system may be configured to receive an input, delay actuation of the blower for a first time period, alter a blower state during a second time period, the second time period after the expiration when the input is related to a change in the state of the HVAC system, maintain the heating system valve in the target position during the second time period, and alter a position of the heating system valve to an operation position after expiration of the second time period.

Abstract: Modern industrial processes demand flexibility in terms of how data flows are structured in an automation pyramid. Instead of only upward and downward flows, the data should be accessible directly at each level of the pyramid. A gateway for facilitating an integration of process equipment within an industrial environment supporting an open industry standard is provided. Integration of field devices having characteristics, capabilities, and/or requirements that are expressed by a description language for industrial process equipment such as EDDL, into a contemporary communication environment enabling a direct data access, is supported. The communication environment is operated based on a semantically enriched and graph-based data information model such as provided by OPC UA.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable medium for deploying neural networks in low bit environments. The system comprises a runtime platform, a first set of configuration parameters identifying limitations of the runtime platform, and a quantization platform for quantizing neural networks. The quantization platform receives a neural network associated with a framework and quantizing the neural network into a smaller neural network and generates a dataset comprising a second set of configuration parameters for compiling the smaller neural network into instructions for the runtime platform. The second set of configuration parameters are responsive to the limitations of the first set of configuration parameters. The runtime environment implements the smaller neural network in accordance with the second set of configuration parameters.

Abstract: A system, method and computer readable medium for implementing neural networks. The method can include providing a neural network, providing a lookup table based on the neural network, packing weights and activations of the neural network associated with the at least one convolution with a first set of bitwise operations, unpacking the packed weights and activations, with a second set of bitwise operations, to determine one or more inputs for the look up table. The method includes accessing, within the lookup table, an output corresponding to the one or more inputs, and implement the at least one convolution based on the output.

Abstract: Isolated polypeptides or polypeptide chains are modified by di-tyrosine cross-linking such that they retain at least one functional activity. In one embodiment, the isolated polypeptide or polypeptide chains comprise at least one di-tyrosine cross-link, wherein at least one tyrosine of the di-tyrosine cross-link originates from a point mutation to tyrosine, and wherein the di-tyrosine cross-linked protein retains at least one function displayed by the protein in the absence of di-tyrosine cross-linking. In another embodiment, the di-tyrosine cross-linked polypeptide or polypeptide chain has enhanced stability compared to the same polypeptide or polypeptide chain in the absence of di-tyrosine cross-linking. A method for stabilization of a polypeptide or polypeptide complex, by the introduction of intra-polypeptide and/or inter-polypeptide di-tyrosine bonds, which simultaneously maintains the structure and function of the polypeptide or polypeptide complex is also described.

Abstract: A process as claimed for the invention for internal high-pressure reshaping of a hollow section (12) in a reshaping tool, a fluid being introduced under high pressure P1 into a hollow section and this section having a transitional area with different wall thicknesses in the area of an edge (18 to 21) to be blocked, is characterized in that the shape selected for the hollow section (12) in the initial state is such that a thickened area (22 to 25) extends a certain distance from the edge (18 to 21) into the wall section (14, 16) with smaller wall thickness. As a result, constrictions can be avoided during reshaping and favorable edge geometries can be achieved (FIG. 2).

To achieve stabilization, a cross-link reaction is controlled such that polypeptides and polypeptide complexes maintain their original functionality. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method for the identification of amino acid residues which, when cross-linked, are least disruptive to the structure and function of the polypeptide or polypeptide complex. In another embodiment, the invention provides a method for mutagenesis of identified residues to further control the cross-link reaction. Polypeptides and polypeptide complexes so stabilized can be utilized under a wide variety of physiological and non-physiological conditions.
