A media presentation generally includes a plurality of media segments provided by multiple users of the media presentation system. In one or more embodiments, a user of the media presentation system may share a media presentation with a co-user. The media presentation system can enable the co-user, if authorized by the user, to contribute (e.g., add a media segment) to a media presentation shared with the co-user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for etching different features in a substantially equal manner are described. One of the methods includes applying a low frequency bias signal during a low TCP state and applying a high frequency bias signal during a high TCP state. The application of the low frequency bias signal during the low TCP state facilitates generation of hot neutrals, which are used to increase an etch rate of etching dense features compared to an etch rate for etching isolation features. The application of the high frequency bias signal during the high TCP state facilitates generation of ions to increase an etch rate of etching the isolation features compared to an etch rate of etching the dense features. After applying the low frequency bias signal during the low TCP state and the high frequency bias signal during the high TCP state, the isolation and dense features are etched similarly.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein may be useful in the detection of analytes. The systems and methods may allow for a relatively simple and rapid way for detecting analytes such as chemical and/or biological analytes and may be useful in numerous applications including sensing, food manufacturing, medical diagnostics, performance materials, dynamic lenses, water monitoring, environmental monitoring, detection of proteins, detection of DNA, among other applications. For example, the systems and methods described herein may be used for determining the presence of a contaminant such as bacteria (e.g., detecting pathogenic bacteria in food and water samples which helps to prevent widespread infection, illness, and even death). Advantageously, the systems and methods described herein may not have the drawbacks in current detection technologies including, for example, relatively high costs, long enrichment steps and analysis times, and/or the need for extensive user training.

Abstract: A hybrid network-based database system for handling OLTP and OLAP queries using decoupled compute and storage devices. A set of decoupled compute instances perform transactions on an OLTP database, and the data is replicated to an OLAP database, which is managed by another set of decoupled compute instances. Further, in response to queries, the database system can retrieve data from the OLTP and OLAP database for merging and processing according to the query.

In one example, a system comprises a camera arrangement including at least two cameras, each of the at least two cameras including a field of view when positioned in the camera arrangement, each field of view including a peripheral edge of the wafer and a peripheral edge of the datum structure.
