Abstract: A method includes reading a digital signal from a sensing device in an area of a structure, where the digital signal is configured to be present periodically. A trailing edge of the digital signal is determined. An analog signal from the sensing device is read, where the analog signal includes an output from a sensor included in the sensing device, and where the sensor is configured to detect an aspect of an environment. The analog signal is read after the trailing edge of the digital signal.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a ring-shaped wearable device for detecting biometrics with a light source and a photodetector directed towards a digit wearing the ring-shaped device. The ring can thus detect oxygen saturation of a wearer based on light transmitted through the wearer's finger. The ring can include power saving measures to extend the battery life. A motion sensor can help determine opportune moments for data collection such as when the wearer is still. The motion sensor can be used to remove noise from the data caused by motion. After data is collected or during data collection, the ring can wirelessly communicate the data to another portable electronic device such as a phone or watch.

Also provided are methods of preparing compounds of formula (II), or a stereoisomer or tautomer thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of any of the foregoing. Also provided are methods of inhibiting APOL1 and methods of treating an APOL1-mediated disease, disorder, or condition in an individual.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the disclosure include inventive compounds (e.g., compounds of Formula (I)) and compositions (e.g., pharmaceutical compositions) which inhibit IRAK and/or FLT3 and which can be used for treating, for example, certain diseases. Some embodiments include methods of using the inventive compound (e.g., in compositions or in pharmaceutical compositions) for administering and treating (e.g., diseases such as hematopoietic cancers, myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), etc.), Additional embodiments provide disease treatment using combinations of the inventive IRAK and/or FLT3 inhibiting compounds with other therapies, such as cancer therapies.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for recommending design changes in designing a digital integrated circuit. An analysis of the digital integrated circuit being designed is performed, where the result of such an analysis involves violations being identified and stored. A stored violation, such as a cross-domain, cross-hierarchy and multi-cycle violation, may then be analyzed to identify a root cause of the violation using a rule. Such a rule may be used for triaging various failures in the cross-domain, cross-hierarchy and/or multi-cycle violation of the digital integrated circuit. A design change in the design of the digital integrated circuit may then be recommended based on the identified root cause of the violation. In this manner, the root cause of failures are effectively identified in the design of digital integrated circuits using an offline analysis of cross-domain, cross-hierarchy and/or multi-cycle violations using a rules-based approach.

Abstract: A method includes determining, by a sensor node in communication with a communication network, an evacuation condition, retrieving by a decision node, occupancy information pertaining to an area, retrieving area data, and determining an evacuation route, at least in part using the evacuation condition, occupancy information, and area data, and communicating the determined evacuation route to area occupants.

Abstract: A single-use, pre-weighed, pre-packaged solid compressed form of a phosphoramidite. In one embodiment, the single-use pre-weighed pre-packaged solid compressed phosphoramidite is packaged in individual discrete units in a package for direct dispensing into an instrument.

Abstract: A system including a feedstock supply system that includes a first pump configured to supply a first feedstock to a first gasifier along a first supply conduit, a second pump configured to supply a second feedstock to the first gasifier along a second supply conduit, and a pressure vessel disposed along a first conduit loop. The feedstock supply system is configured to circulate the first feedstock through the first conduit loop to raise a first pressure of the first feedstock to a first threshold pressure in the pressure vessel. The feedstock supply system is also configured to control a first transition from the second pump to the first pump after the first pressure reaches the first threshold pressure. The first transition includes a first change from the second feedstock to the first feedstock for supply to the first gasifier.

Abstract: A basketball rebounder may releasably attach to a backboard. The basketball rebounder may include a frame for supporting the basketball rebounder off the floor at a substantially fixed position relative to the backboard. The basketball rebounder may further include a plurality of nets which may be attached to the frame allowing the basketball rebounder to return a basketball substantially in a direction away from the backboard.

Abstract: A shelf display apparatus for absorbent articles which are packaged in a flexible film. The apparatus has a substantially horizontal bottom wall and a support structure which together provide a storage region adapted to store substantially upright the absorbent articles. The support structure may include an upstanding side wall which may have ribs to improve package stability, windows to improve product visibility and/or magnets to improve apparatus stability. Another support structure may include a plurality of partitions and a plurality of recesses.

Abstract: A scan architecture for testing integrated circuit chips containing scannable memory devices, such as register arrays, is operable in a bypass mode during which only a small portion of the memory cells in each device or array is inserted in the scan path to substantially reduce scan path length, test time and test data volume during testing of other logic components in the circuit chip. Additional decoder logic is employed to select a small number of words in the device or array during the scan-bypass mode, and multiplexor circuitry removes the bypassed words from the scan path. By leaving the small number of the register array words in the scan path, observability of logic upstream of the array, and controllability of logic downstream of the array, is preserved during the bypass mode without the need for additional shift register latches and other external logic components.
