Abstract: Embodiments include methods, systems and computer program products for enhanced information retrieval using associated terms. In some embodiments, a request for content may be received from a user of a user device. A term association model associated with the term may be obtained. The term association model is a statistical language model. A plurality of content items may be obtained using data from the request for content. A ranking of the plurality of content items may be generated using a user-specific term association framework generated using the term association model. Presentation of the ranking of the plurality of content items to the user of the user device may be facilitated.

Abstract: An elastomeric dampening link including two or more interconnected dampening bushings mounted around corresponding ones of two or more adjustable length turnbuckles linked to devices and elastomeric dampening link includes at least one bar connecting adjacent ones of the dampening bushings. Clamping bands of clamp may be clamped around each of the dampening bushings. Bar may be in tension between the dampening bushings. Each of the turnbuckles may include a rod disposed in a corresponding one of the dampening bushings and having distal hollow internally threaded first end, first eyelet mounted on the first externally threaded shank adjustably screwed into internally threaded first end. One of the bushings may be substantially solid, have a rectangular slot extending inwardly from an annular surface of bushing, and the rod may have six sided surface with two opposite sides slidingly engaging and fitting snugly in the slot. Turnbuckles and links may be used to actuate variable stator vanes.

Abstract: A tool is provided for document or design code completion. The tool includes a storage element in which common and user-specific unfinished work indicators are stored in first and second databases, respectively, a search element and a processor. The search element is disposed to identify unfinished work in documents by searching for matches of first text within the documents with second text of the common and user-specific work indicators in the first and second databases. The processor is configured to create a third database including the second text and pertinent sections of the documents. The pertinent sections are respectively associated with the second text and verifiably marked as unfinished by natural language processing of the first and second text by the processor. The processor is further configured to update the first and second databases based on results of the natural language processing.

Abstract: Authentication includes receiving an indication of physical possession of a payment card by a merchant and receiving a purchase request for an authorization of an exchange from the payment account of the cardholder to the merchant. Authentication includes assigning a randomized transaction identifier to the request for the authorization of the exchange. The method also includes transmitting the request for the authorization of the exchange from the payment account of the cardholder to the merchant and receiving the assigned randomized transaction identifier and a randomized authentication identifier associated with the randomized transaction identifier from a payment association, the payment association determining whether the request for the authorization of the exchange is valid.

Abstract: Authentication for payment transaction includes receiving, by a point-of-sale (POS) terminal, an indication that a payment account of a cardholder is associated with a mobile device and receiving a second indication of physical possession of a payment card by a merchant. The authentication includes receiving a purchase request for an authorization of exchange from the payment account of the cardholder to the merchant and assigning a transaction identifier to the request for the authorization of the exchange. The authentication includes transmitting the request for authorization of the exchange from the cardholder payment account to the merchant and the transaction identifier. The authentication includes receiving an indication that an authentication identifier is associated with the transaction identifier. The authentication includes receiving a copy of the authentication identifier, facilitated by the cardholder.

Abstract: Authentication includes determining that a cardholder payment account is associated with a mobile device. Authentication includes receiving an indication of physical possession of a payment card. Authentication includes receiving a purchase request for an authorization of an exchange of funds from the cardholder account to the merchant. Authentication includes receiving a randomized transaction identifier to the request for the authorization of the exchange. Authentication includes transmitting to the mobile device, information associated with the request. Authentication includes transmitting to the mobile device, a request for confirmation of the authorization from the cardholder from the account of the cardholder to the merchant. Authentication includes receiving an indication, facilitated by the cardholder, that the exchange is authorized. Authentication includes authorizing the exchange of from the payment account of the cardholder to the merchant.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a flexible container. In an embodiment, the flexible container includes a first multilayer film and a second multilayer film. Each multilayer film comprises an inner seal layer. The multilayer films are arranged such that the seal layers oppose each other and the second multilayer film is superimposed on the first multilayer film. The multilayer films are sealed along a common peripheral edge. The flexible container includes an orifice in one of the multilayer films, and a pop-up spout extends through the orifice. The pop-up spout has a flange sealed to the multilayer film around the orifice. The pop-up spout comprises an ethylene/?-olefin multi-block copolymer.

Abstract: Balun with tunable bandpass filter characteristic includes first, second and third coupling elements disposed on a substrate. The first and second coupling elements are arranged on the substrate relative to the third coupling element to couple two identical but out of phase signals to form a corresponding unbalanced signal in the third coupling element. A plurality of tunable resonator elements are distributed within an area of the substrate defined on one side by the first and second coupling elements and on an opposing side by the third coupling element. The tunable resonator elements are configured to selectively produce a bandpass filter response.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes storing commands and maintaining an order of receipt of the commands in a command processing unit. The commands include address translation cache miss commands that are organized as one or more linked lists and stored in a content-addressable memory (CAM). All nodes within a single linked list include commands having addresses that map to the same hash value. Based on receiving a memory fetch completion indicator for a cache entry for a command in a head node in a linked list, all of the commands in the linked list are returned. The returning includes sending the commands in the linked list to an address translation unit in an order specified by the linked list.
