  • Patent number: 11972242
    Abstract: A continuous optimizer detects a code promotion of a candidate release of an application. In response to the code promotion, the continuous optimizer instantiates a JVM and profiles the application to obtain a JVM profile. The continuous optimizer benchmarks the candidate release against the JVM and JVM profile. The continuous optimizer further compares the benchmark results with previous benchmark results. Based upon the comparison and a set of rules, the continuous optimizer causes the candidate release to be promoted.

  • Patent number: 11941240
    Abstract: A plurality of video items comprising a first subset of video items and a second subset of video items are received at a client device. A graphical user interface comprising a scrollable area to present the plurality of video items and a focus area to present one of the plurality of video items is presented. Video items of the second subset of video items are presented in or adjacent to the focus area when the first subset of video items is visible in the scrollable area and prior to the second subset of video items becoming visible in the scrollable area, and a size of the video items from the second subset of video items presented in or adjacent to the focus area is smaller than a size of video items of the first subset of video items presented in the scrollable area.

  • Patent number: 11578238
    Abstract: Materials and methods for mitigating passive intermodulation. A membrane for reducing passive intermodulation includes a first polymeric layer, a second polymeric layer, and a continuous metal layer encapsulated between the first and second polymeric layers. A self-adhesive radio frequency barrier tape includes a waterproof polymeric top layer, a metal-containing layer adhered by an adhesive layer to the polymeric top layer, a pressure sensitive adhesive layer adhered to the metal-containing layer, and a release liner on a bottom surface of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer. A method of mitigating passive intermodulation includes passing a probe over an area of interest, the probe being sensitive to an intermodulation frequency of interest, and identifying a suspected source of passive intermodulation when the amplitude of the probe output exceeds a threshold at the frequency of interest.

  • Patent number: 11409543
    Abstract: An information handling system includes a delay controller having an analytics engine configured to analyze telemetry data associated with an installation of a program, to calculate a confidence index based upon the analyzed telemetry data, and to generate a recommendation corresponding to the calculated confidence index. A download controller receives an end-user recommendation selection, and delays the installation of the program based upon a delay time in the received end-user recommendation selection.
