Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for enhanced bandwidth negotiation. Some implementations more specifically relate to request-to-transmit (RTS) and clear-to-send (CTS) frame designs that support bandwidth negotiations over a range of bandwidths achievable in accordance with the IEEE 802.11be amendment, and future generations, of the IEEE 802.11 standard. In some implementations, a bandwidth negotiation frame (such as a CTS or RTS frame) may be configurable to support bandwidths greater than 160 MHz. In some aspects, the bandwidth negotiation frame may conform to a legacy control frame format. More specifically, one or more bits of a service field associated with the legacy control frame format may be repurposed to carry enhanced bandwidth information. In some aspects, a recipient of a bandwidth negotiation frame may interpret one or more bits of the service field to carry enhanced bandwidth information when the frame is transmitted by a non-legacy transmitting device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for processing memory address spaces corresponding to a shared memory are disclosed. After a writer restart process, pre-restart writer pointers of a pre-restart writer addressable space in the shared memory are replaced with corresponding location independent pointers. A writer pointer translation table is rebuilt in the shared memory to replace an association of modified pre-restart writer pointers and pre-restart translation base pointers based on the pre-restart writer pointers, respectively, with an association of modified post-restart writer pointers and post-restart translation base pointers based on post-restart writer pointers, respectively. After the writer pointer translation table is rebuilt, the location independent pointers are replaced with post-restart writer pointers in the shared memory, respectively, and the post-restart writer pointers are stored in the shared memory for access by one or more readers of the shared memory.

Abstract: A method enables video surveillance service subscribers to share image streams with individual first responder agencies in the event of emergency. Nominated agencies establish access credentials at the surveillance service data center. A customer administrator selects permissions on each camera via privileged web-browser or mobile device. Permissions enable selection by static meta data such as type, audio, location, motion, recognition, spectrum, and epoch. Setting ranges of time controls access to video streams of present and past epochs. A responding agency presents their access credential and a handle for each shared camera of interest upon receiving an electronic notification from the administrator. Dynamically generating a link to a secure webserver which records geo-location or network identifiers for validation customizes a notification for each responding agency and each event.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to electronic smoking devices and in particular to a tray for at least a portion of an electronic smoking device. The tray (100) comprises at least one cavity (101) for containing the portion. The tray (100) is configured to be reversibly deformed from a default form into a deformed form by finger interaction with interaction elements of the tray (100) having a distance to each other of at least 90% of the average distance between thumb tip and index finger tip or a middle finger tip of an adult. The tray (100) is configured to return to the default form once the finger interaction is terminated. The default form provides the at least one cavity (101) for containing the portion in an inaccessible manner and the deformed form is required for accessing the portion.

Abstract: A reduced footprint collimator device to focus light beam over length of optical path for use in an optical cytometry device or other optical instrument where a focused beam of light is passed through a test medium and then sampled by a photomultiplier or multiple photomultipliers for analysis. This device provides alignment and focus of that beam and collimation along the entire beam path. In addition in order to reduce the overall footprint of the beam path this device uses a precision coated prism to redirect the optical path perpendicular to the entering optical beam. The reduced footprint collimator device to focus light beam over length of optical path generally includes a reduced footprint 90 degree collimator which allows light beam collimation, beam path alignment, selectable beam focal distance, and reduces stray light reflections all in a minimal footprint.an These features allows for a smaller overall instrument design.

Abstract: A parallel processing unit (PPU) can be divided into partitions. Each partition is configured to operate similarly to how the entire PPU operates. A given partition includes a subset of the computational and memory resources associated with the entire PPU. Software that executes on a CPU partitions the PPU for an admin user. A guest user is assigned to a partition and can perform processing tasks within that partition in isolation from any other guest users assigned to any other partitions. Because the PPU can be divided into isolated partitions, multiple CPU processes can efficiently utilize PPU resources.

Abstract: An electrosurgical resection instrument for applying to biological tissue radiofrequency electromagnetic energy has a protective hull comprising a shaped piece of dielectric material mounted to cover an underside of an instrument tip of the instrument. The protective hull acts as a shield to protect tissue that may lie under the instrument tip from damage during treatment. The instrument may be particularly useful in procedures performed in a gastrointestinal tract, where bowel perforation is a concern, or in the pancreas, where damage to the portal vein or the pancreatic duct may occur when a tumor or other abnormality is being resected, dissected or removed.

Abstract: An illustrative data storage management system is aware that certain data storage resources for storing/serving primary data operate in a partnered configuration. Illustrative components of the data storage management system analyze the failover status of the partnered primary data storage resources to determine which is currently serving/storing primary data and/or snapshots targeted for backup. When detecting that a first partnered primary data storage resource has failed over to a second primary data storage resource, the example storage manager changes the assignment of backup resources that are pre-administered for the targeted data. Accordingly, the example storage manager assigns backup resources, including at least one media agent, that are associated with the second primary data storage resource, and which are “closer” thereto from a geography and/or network topology perspective, even if the pre-administered backup resources are available for backup.
