Abstract: A top housing having a back slot and a front slot parallel with each other, and both stacked on top of a row of lower slots, which is perpendicular to the back and front slots. In this way, the juxtaposition of the back and front slots and the row of lower slots forms two rows of virtual rectangular through-openings. The back of these rows receives a row of first contacts extended through them. The front of these rows receives a row of second contacts extended through them. The through-openings thus guide the contacts at a position of the contacts that is very close to where they contact the lead of the DUT. Hence, there is a very high amount of precision and control of the contact tip that contacts the lead of the DUT.

Abstract: Power supply units (PSU) provide for digital current-sharing loop control to ensure output voltage regulation during dynamic load transients by (i) delaying an internal current signal to match a delay in a shared current signal, and (ii) controlling the output amplifier based on the shared current signal and the delayed local current signal to maintain the respective local DC electrical power in proportion to contributions by other ones of the more than one PSU to the shared DC electrical power and thereby avoid instability in dynamic response to a load transient induced by the power consuming component.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods for facilitating identification and/or acquisition of an access point are provided. Methods can include transmitting or receiving access point information (“API”) indicative of an identification of the access point (“AP”). The API can be provided at the AP through hardwiring or receipt of configuration information input by a user or transmitted to the AP by a network operator through Over-The-Air (“OTA”) signaling. The API can be computer-readable and, in some embodiments, the API can also be human-readable. The API can be transmitted on a paging channel from which user equipment (“UE”) can receive information. The frequency at which the API is transmitted can be fixed, dynamic and/or configurable. Upon receipt of the API, acquisition of the AP is attempted if the AP is determined to be a permitted AP.

Abstract: The disclosed methods, systems, and apparatus use Natural Language Processing (NLP) in conjunction with a world model and cognitive frames to semantically analyze, understand, rank, store, and retrieve digital text. The goal is to improve the relevance, usefulness and efficiency of information search. The world model represents things existing in the real world whereas cognitive frames specify possible user interaction with such a world. Using NLP in conjunction with a world model and cognitive frames to understand text is an advancement in automated text analysis. It addresses three serious shortcomings of the existing search technology: the inadequate measure of the meaningful content in web pages; a poor understanding of users' goals and tasks in their search and, the irrelevant search results. The disclosed methods have led to the successful implementation of a full-scale semantic search engine in medicine, and they are applicable and adaptable to other disciplines.
