Abstract: A method for improving transmission power management with compliance to regulations of radiofrequency exposure, which may comprise: at a current time, estimating whether a window average power, which may reflect average power transmitted using a radio technology during a moving time window, will exceed a power limit after the current time; if true, proceeding to at least one of a first handling subroutine and a second handling subroutine to set a power cap, and causing power transmitted to be capped by the power cap after the current time. The first handling subroutine may comprise: scheduling to set the power cap lower at a scheduled time. Estimating whether the window average power will exceed the power limit may involve discarding one of a plurality of power records. The second handling subroutine may comprise: setting the power cap not higher than the discarded one of the plurality of power records.

Abstract: An edge emitting laser (EEL) device includes a substrate, an n-type buffer layer, a first n-type cladding layer, a grating layer, a spacer layer, a lower confinement unit, an active layer, an upper confinement unit, a p-type cladding layer, a tunnel junction layer and a second n-type cladding layer sequentially arranged from bottom to top.

Abstract: A method for identifying hard-coded strings in source code is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method parses source code and associated localization resource files to identify hard-coded strings and their associated context. The method provides a confidence score for each hard-coded string that indicates whether the hard-coded string is translatable or non-translatable. Based on the confidence score for each hard-coded string, the method transforms each hard-coded string into a single equivalence word. The method then prepares training data by tagging the hard-coded strings in the source code and associated localization resource files as one of translatable and non-translatable. The method then trains a parts-of-speech (POS) tagging model using the training data. At runtime, the method fetches potential hard-coded strings and tags each hard-coded string as one of translatable and non-translatable using the POS tagging model. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system, method and program product for performing code conversions. In one embodiment the method includes determining size of encoding space for a source file and a target file upon receipt of a code conversion request and generating a main conversion file upon determination that a target encoding space associated with said target file is smaller than a source encoding space associated with the source file. Subsequently an extension converted file is generated from the source file according to a pre-established mapping table of code conversion stored in a memory. The code conversion request is completed by using the main conversion file and said extension file together so that the source file does not need to be truncated in order to fit into the target conversion space.
