Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating microscale structures and/or nanoscale structures, surface profiles, and surface chemistries on medical devices. Embodiments disclosed herein utilize exposure of pulsed laser radiation on to a surface of a material by a pulsed laser. The pulsed laser according to embodiments disclosed herein is configured to emit at least one laser pulse toward the surface and thereby modify the profile of the surface in order to selectively promote or inhibit bioactivity and medical functionality of the material. By selectively promoting or inhibiting bioactivity of the material, enhanced biointegration at a cellular level may be achieved. For example, modifying the surface profile and/or surface chemistry of a first substrate material can improve adhesive and/or chemical bonding of the first material to a bioactive second coating material.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides the planning of the next generation network which complements an existing telecom deployment to achieve the desired KPIs from the combined network for both macro and small cell planning in an existing network in a cost-effective method to deploy ODSC cells and Macro Cells in a heterogeneous network. Planning a next-generation network for an existing telecom operator is a large undertaking, utilizing precious man-hours and most importantly, weeks of work. Using an automated planning methodology to plan macro and small cells for a region like a city, state or even country, planners can deploy solutions to make the most optimum use of existing infrastructure. The invention proposes an automated approach to plan the preferred overlay telecom solutions in an area A being part of an existing telecom deployment.

The method comprising receiving an image; overlaying a window at multiple locations on said image to define a plurality of sub-images within said image, with each sub-image each having a plurality of pixels having a luminance level; determining a luminance value for each said sub-image, wherein said luminance value is derived from said luminance levels of said plurality of pixels; and combining said luminance values for each of said sub-images to form said signature. Said combining is such that said signature is independent of the location of each sub-image. A method of creating a database of images using said method of generating signatures is also described.
