Abstract: A computer-implemented method identifies a set of system applications of a system and a set of resources. A composite performance score is determined for each of the resources and the resources are ranked. The system applications are classified in at least two classifications such that each system application corresponds to a single classification and the classifications include a hierarchy of importance. The resources are ranked based on the composite scores. A highest ranked available resource is scheduled to an unscheduled system application having the highest classification of unscheduled system applications as a primary resource. A next highest ranked available resource is scheduled to the unscheduled system application as a secondary resource. The ranking and scheduling is reiterated until all system applications have been assigned to a resource. A schedule of resources identifying each system application and each resource scheduled to the system applications is output.

Abstract: A bone clamp including two or more clamping members configured to clampingly receive a bone therebetween. The bone clamp further includes a basis supporting at least two of the clamping members at a first distance to each other. At least one of the at least two clamping members has a body and is rotatably supported by the basis. The at least one rotatably supported clamping member has a bone engaging structure extending helically along at least a part of a length of its body. The bone engaging structure is configured to engage a side surface of the bone upon rotation of the at least one rotatably supported clamping member. Depending on the direction of the rotation, the rotatably supported clamping member advances along the side surface of the bone either in a downward direction for mounting the bone clamp or in an upward direction for dismounting the bone clamp.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a 5th generation (5G) or 6th generation (6G) communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method and a Base Station (BS) for determining an optimal equalizer for managing interference in a communication network are provided. The method includes estimating channel coefficients of each slot of a plurality of slots based on received Demodulation Reference Signal (DM-RS) symbols, determining a covariance of interference-and-noise (Rz) matrix for at least one Resource Block (RB) of a plurality of RBs of each slot based on the channel coefficients, determining a noise variance (?2) based on noise measurements performed for one or more sub-carriers without the interference, and determining an optimal equalizer from a plurality of equalizers for managing the interference, based on diagonal elements of the Rz matrix and ?2 of the at least one RB using a machine learning model.
