Abstract: A predictive insurance underwriting system. An electronic life insurance policy application processing apparatus accepts data describing a consumer. An underwriting desktop processing apparatus receives the data. An underwriting rules processing apparatus determines, based on the data describing the consumer, whether the consumer is eligible for expedited underwriting of a life insurance policy covering the consumer. If it is determined that the consumer is eligible for expedited underwriting, a tele-interview processing apparatus collects first additional data relating to the consumer during a telephonic interview and, in response to a request from a processing unit, one or more third party databases transmit second additional data relating to the consumer.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a printed circuit assembly (PCA). The PCA includes a printed circuit board (PCB). The PCA further includes an identification device embedded within the PCB. The identification device stores identity information that uniquely identifies identification device and the PCB. Moreover, a PCB identifier defined using the identity information is also stored in a platform attestation file hosted locally within the PCA, on a remote server, or both locally within the PCA and on the remote server. Additionally, the PCA includes an authentication device disposed on the PCB, wherein the platform attestation file is cryptographically bound to the authentication device.

Abstract: In some examples, a system receives a first image of a circuit board produced by a first production stage, and compares the first image to a second image of the circuit board acquired at a second production stage for the circuit board. The system indicates an anomaly with the circuit board based on the comparing.

Abstract: Apparatus including an elongated body to couple with a surface mount connector to reduce or prevent deformation of the surface mount connector during soldering of the surface mount connector to a substrate, the surface mount connector including a connector housing having a first end portion and a second end portion. In one implementation, the elongated body may include: a first body end portion forming a first tab insertable into a first portion of a socket defined by the first housing end portion; and a second body end portion forming a second tab insertable into a second portion of the socket defined by the second housing end portion.

Abstract: An example device in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure includes a collection engine and a correlation engine to identify cooling loop characteristics. The collection engine is to collect data from devices associated with cooling loops. The correlation engine is to identify, based on the data collected, a common loop from among the cooling loops, and which of the devices are associated with the common loop.

Abstract: Examples herein disclose a multi-channel apparatus include a first channel and a second channel. The first channel receives heated air from an electrical component. The first channel deflects the heated air from a posterior electrical component. The deflection of the heated air is caused by a curvature of an internal partition. The second channel, which is segmented from the first channel via the internal partition, provides cool air to the posterior electrical component.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing enclosure, which at least sealingly contains an electronic component, a barrier, a pump, and a coolant. The electronic component is located on a substrate, while the barrier defines a circulation loop in which the coolant is exposed to the electronic component. The pump is positioned within the circulation loop to cause flow of the coolant through the circulation loop along one side of the at least one barrier in one direction and along an opposite side of the at least one barrier in an opposite direction.

Abstract: A method for detecting thermal events in an electrical system includes: synchronizing, via a controller, measurements of power consumed by each of a plurality of load elements during an interval with one another and with measurements of power supplied by each of a plurality of power sources to the plurality of load elements during the interval; determining a differential between a sum of the power consumed by the load elements during the interval and a sum of the power supplied by the power sources to the plurality of load elements during the interval; comparing the differential to a predetermined threshold; and determining whether a thermal event has occurred based on the comparison of the differential to the predetermined threshold.
