  • Patent number: 12148031
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a novel system and method for TCP-to-multicast (T2M) communications. The T2M techniques may allow a client to make a single TCP connection that then fans out into communications with multiple back-end resources. Such one-to-many communications may be invisible to the client but can achieve many practical benefits.

  • Publication number: 20240378202
    Abstract: Systems and methods for compressing and querying data for real-time analytics. The system can receive log data and generate an intermediate representation by parsing a log template and variables from the log data into a columnar format. The method includes generating a compressed intermediate representation associated with an index type and storing the compressed intermediate representation in the columnar format based on the index type. The method includes receiving a search query and analyzing the search query to identify a user defined function. The method includes parsing the search query to convert the search query into one or more predicates that satisfy the search query. The method includes filtering the compressed log data based on the one or more predicates and providing a query result.

  • Publication number: 20240379938
    Abstract: A cathode for a high voltage lithium-ion secondary battery is described, including: an electrode layer having an electrode composition containing cathode active particles, fluoropolymer binder and conductive carbon. The cathode active particles are high voltage lithium transition metal oxides, the fluoropolymer binder is a fibrillated tetrafluoroethylene polymer having high melt creep viscosity, and the conductive carbon is carbon fibers having a specific surface area of about 50 m2/g or less. The carbon fibers and the fluoropolymer binder form a conducting structural web electronically connecting the cathode active particles, enabling electronic conductivity through the electrode layer. The electrode layer is adhered to a current collector comprising aluminum having surface roughness and substantially no carbon surface coating other than the conductive carbon of the electrode layer.

  • Patent number: 12101077
    Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure relate to a bulk acoustic wave device with a multi-layer raised frame. The bulk acoustic wave device includes a first electrode, a second electrode, a piezoelectric layer positioned between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a multi-layer raised frame structure configured to cause lateral energy leakage from a main acoustically active region of the bulk acoustic wave device to be reduced. The multi-layer raised frame structure includes a first raised frame layer embedded in the piezoelectric layer and a second raised frame layer. The first raised frame layer has a lower acoustic impedance than the piezoelectric layer.

  • Publication number: 20240296755
    Abstract: Anatomically accurate brain phantoms are physical models of brains which mimic the viscoelastic properties of brain tissues. The material used to represent different layers of the brain may be a composition of a hydrogel solution and a cross-linking agent, with ratios calculated and determined to accurately reflect the brain's mechanical properties, most notably, the viscoelasticity. Embedded sensors (e.g., accelerometers) measure impact forces and shear stresses/strains caused by a concussion-related experimental impact to the phantom. Uses of the hydrogel brain phantom include biomedical research and as a planning tool for medical treatments. A specific subject's brain may be replicated for designing personalized treatment.
