Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to determine provenance for data supply chains are disclosed. Example instructions cause a machine to at least, in response to data being generated, generate a local data object and object metadata corresponding to the data; hash the local data object; generate a hash of a label of the local data object; generate a hierarchical data structure for the data including the hash of the local data object and the hash of the label of the local data object; generate a data supply chain object including the hierarchical data structure; and transmit the data and the data supply chain object to a device that requested access to the data.

Abstract: Examples include a method of switching a packet by a virtual switch by receiving a system call to transmit a packet from a first application running in a first container on a first core, determining a destination for the packet, obtaining a buffer in an application memory space of the destination, copying the packet to the destination application memory space, and writing an entry for the packet to a queue assigned to the destination, the destination queue being in a queue manager. The packet may then be obtained by an entity at the destination.

Abstract: The systems, methods, and devices described herein generally relate to achieving accurate and robust motion correction by detecting and accounting for false movements in motion correction systems used in conjunction with medical imaging and/or therapeutic systems. In other words, in some embodiments of the systems, methods, and devices described herein can be configured to detect false movements for motion correction during a medical imaging scan and/or therapeutic procedure, and thereby ensure that such false movements are not accounted for in the motion correction process. Upon detection of false movements, the imaging or therapeutic system can be configured to transiently suppress and/or subsequently repeat acquisitions.

Abstract: A shank for an article of footwear including a substantially planar base portion extending within a first plane in the longitudinal and lateral directions and a substantially planar ramp portion designed to absorb footwear loads in a vertical direction, the ramp portion extending, in an uncompressed state, within a second plane that is oblique to the first plane. The base portion and the ramp portion are arranged such that they do not overlap in the vertical direction. A sole assembly is also described and includes an outsole divided into a first portion located at a forefoot portion of the sole assembly and a second portion located at an arch portion of the sole assembly. The second portion is designed to contact the midsole in a compressed state and form a gap between when a load is removed. Related methods of manufacturing are also described.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a tunnel junction includes depositing a first electrode on a substrate, depositing a wetting layer having a thickness of less than 2 nm on the first electrode, using atomic layer deposition (ALD) to deposit an oxide layer on the wetting layer, and depositing a second electrode on the oxide layer. The wetting layer and the oxide layer form a tunnel barrier, and the second electrode includes a superconductor.

Abstract: A shoe sole structure includes an outsole having a plurality of cushioning members formed with the bottom surface of the outsole that can extend at least partially between the lateral edge and the medial edge of the shoe and also around a heel end of the shoe. One or more of the cushioning members can differ in size, location, orientation, length and/or material from one or more of the remaining cushioning members.
