Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for processing a vector by a vector processor. Techniques disclosed include receiving predicated instructions by a scheduler, each of which is associated with an opcode, a vector of elements, and a predicate. The techniques further include executing the predicated instructions. Executing a predicated instruction includes compressing, based on an index derived from a predicate of the instruction, elements in a vector of the instruction, where the elements in the vector are contiguously mapped, then, after the mapped elements are processed, decompressing the processed mapped elements, where the processed mapped elements are reverse mapped based on the index.

Abstract: Described herein is a process to prepare plastic masterbatches, compounds, and compositions thereof composed of at least one plastic matrix, at least one low density solvent or low viscosity solvent, optionally at least one dispersant, and at least one type of inorganic particles. The process described herein improves and optimizes migration mechanism of particles to the surface of the compounded plastic composition and reduces the material lost, by first dispersing the inorganic particles in low density solvent or low viscosity solvent followed by extrusion in plastics matrices.

Abstract: A SCD includes a processor configured to establish operating functions of the SCD. The SCD further includes a computer-readable medium including a setup volume and a storage volume. The setup volume is configured to store information that is decrypted. The storage volume is configured to store information that is encrypted. The setup volume includes instructions that establish at least one authentication process. The encrypted information stored in the storage volume is decrypted after completing the at least one authentication process. The SCD further includes a universal serial bus (USB) connector configured to transmit information stored in the computer-readable medium to a host or a user. The SCD further includes a battery that powers the SCD.

Abstract: An exhaust system, especially for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle, includes an exhaust gas-carrying duct (14) and a reactant injection device (20) for injecting reactant (R) into exhaust gas (A) flowing in the exhaust gas-carrying duct (14). Downstream of the reactant injection device (20), a mixer device (22) supports the mixing of reactant (R) injected by the reactant injection device (20) with exhaust gas (A) flowing in the exhaust gas-carrying duct (14). Downstream of the reactant injection device (20) and upstream of the mixer device (22), a reactant heating device (24) extends in the exhaust gas-carrying duct (14). The exhaust gas (A) flows in and reactant (R) injected through the reactant injection device (20) flow around the heating device (24).

Abstract: An exhaust gas mixer arrangement for mixing exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine with an additive comprises an exhaust gas flow duct (28) with an inlet area (24) arranged upstream and with a discharge area (26) arranged downstream. The exhaust gas flow duct (28) is bent in a coil-like manner at least in some areas between the inlet area (24) and the discharge area (26).

Abstract: An injection device (14), for introducing a reducing agent (11) into an exhaust gas stream (8) of an exhaust system (7) of an internal combustion engine (1), has an exhaust pipe (15) for guiding the exhaust gas stream (8), which has a connecting piece opening (18) in a wall (17). A connecting piece (16) is inserted with an inner end (19) into the connecting piece opening (18) and is provided for connecting an injector (10) at an outer end (20). Simplified assembly is achieved if the connecting piece (16) has, at an inner end (19), a laterally projecting, fully circumferentially extending collar (22). The collar (22) is in contact, on an inner side (23) of the wall (17), with an opening edge (24) enclosing the connecting piece opening (18) and is welded to the wall (17).

Abstract: A mixer (19), for an exhaust system (7) for mixing and/or evaporating a liquid (13) in an exhaust gas flow (8), especially for an SCR system (9), includes a plurality of guide blades (21) arranged in a star-shaped pattern. Simplified manufacturability of the mixer (19) is achieved if the guide blades (21) are connected each with a centrally arranged core (23) radially on the inside and if the guide blades (21). The guide blades (21) and the core (23) are formed by an integral cast part (24).
