Abstract: Materials and methods for mitigating passive intermodulation. A membrane for reducing passive intermodulation includes a first polymeric layer, a second polymeric layer, and a continuous metal layer encapsulated between the first and second polymeric layers. A self-adhesive radio frequency barrier tape includes a waterproof polymeric top layer, a metal-containing layer adhered by an adhesive layer to the polymeric top layer, a pressure sensitive adhesive layer adhered to the metal-containing layer, and a release liner on a bottom surface of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer. A method of mitigating passive intermodulation includes passing a probe over an area of interest, the probe being sensitive to an intermodulation frequency of interest, and identifying a suspected source of passive intermodulation when the amplitude of the probe output exceeds a threshold at the frequency of interest.

Abstract: Disclosed is a monolithic integrated circuit (IC) computing device with multiple independent process cores (multicore) and embedded, non-volatile resistive memory serving as system memory. The resistive system memory is fabricated above the substrate, and logic circuits embodying the process cores are fabricated on the substrate. In addition, access circuitry for operating on the resistive system memory, and circuitry embodying memory controllers, routing devices and other logic components is provided at least in part on the substrate. Large main memory capacities of tens or hundreds of gigabytes (GB) are provided and operable with many process cores, all on a single die. This monolithic integration provides close physical proximity between the process cores and main memory, facilitating significant memory parallelism, reduced power consumption, and eliminating off-chip main memory access requests.

Instructions are forwarded to present an indication the digital image branding function to each member of the end users group.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a population of nucleic acids encoding at least one protein comprising at least one immunoglobulin variable domain having a non-human-derived CDR3 amino acid sequence embedded in essentially human framework sequences, as well as to a population of nucleic acids and a population of proteins relates thereto and uses thereof.

Abstract: A two-phase liquid immersion cooling method is described in which heat generating computer components cause a dielectric fluid in its liquid phase to vaporize. The dielectric vapor is then condensed back into a liquid phase and used to cool the computer components. Using a pressure controlled vessel and pressure controller, a cooling system may be operated at less than ambient pressure. By controlling the pressure at which the system operates, the user may influence the temperature at which the dielectric fluid vaporizes and thereby achieve increased performance from a given computer component.

Abstract: A stage cementing system includes a stage cementing assembly having a stage tool. The stage tool has an outer mandrel, an inner mandrel coupled to and disposed inside of the outer mandrel, an annular chamber between the outer mandrel and the inner mandrel, a first outer port through the outer mandrel, and longitudinally spaced first and second inner ports through the inner mandrel. The stage cementing system further includes an inner string assembly configured to be located inside the inner mandrel. The inner string assembly has a tubular body having a central throughbore and longitudinally spaced first and second side ports, a lower external seal element below the first and second side ports, a middle external seal element between the first and second side ports, and an upper external seal element above the first and second side ports.

Abstract: A collaborative content management system allows users to access collaborative content items. When a client device accesses a shared collaborative content item, the client device displays a portion of the collaborative content item that falls within a viewport. The client application generates a notification count of notification events associated with content that is contained in the collaborative content item and positioned below the viewport, and the client device displays the notification count in a graphical element adjacent to a bottom viewport edge. A similar process generates a second notification count of the notification events associated with content positioned above the viewport and displays a graphical element with the second notification count adjacent to the top viewport edge. The user can iteratively select one of the graphical elements to move the content of the collaborative content item to a portion corresponding to the next notification event above or below the viewport.

Abstract: A roll of toilet tissue and methods for making same are provided.
