Abstract: Techniques for implementing and utilizing capacity cluster resource reservations are described. A managed compute service receives a user's request to identify a capacity block for use in launching compute instances. A schedule with pre-computed blocks, each corresponding to an amount of instances and an amount of time, is used to identify a block satisfying the request's criteria. The user can later obtain the capacity block and launch instances into the reservation during its time window, where placement rules associated with the reservation ensure the instances are hosted in locations enabling low-latency intercommunications.

Abstract: Methods of manufacturing a porous device for diffusing a fragrance using additive manufacturing including iteratively spreading a loose powder and selecting at least one process parameter to create a porosity within the porous device adapted to carry the fragrance from a fragrance reservoir to an exterior surface of the porous device. An additively manufactured device for diffusing a fragrance includes a diffuser having a plurality of pores defining a porosity of the diffuser, the porosity defining at least one of a rate of absorption, an amount of storage, and a rate of diffusion of the fragrance. A method of using a porous device includes filling the plurality of pores with fragrance and diffusing the fragrance from an exterior surface.

Abstract: Multiport assemblies comprising one or more optical ports for receiving an external optical fiber connector for making an optical connection along with useful mounting features for securing the multiport assembly are disclosed. The multiport assembly comprises a mounting member having an aperture and a standoff that is coupled to a shell. The standoff extends outward from a lower surface of the shell to allow easy mounting to irregular surfaces. In another embodiment, the multiport assembly may comprise a second mounting member with an aperture and standoff that is received in a rear shell aperture to inhibit damage to the multiport assembly if a fastener is over-tightened during mounting. In further embodiments, the multiport assembly may comprise a dust plug having a locking feature and a keying port that is received in an optical port for inhibiting dirt, dust or debris from entering when the optical port is not in use.

Abstract: A cosmetic preparation system may provide a diagnostic or shade matching tool, a dispenser unit, and a mixer unit. The diagnostic or shade matching tool may identify a user skin type and customize one or more ingredients to create a custom blend composition. The dispenser unit may dispense ingredients and prepare the custom blend composition in containers of various sizes. The mixer unit may provide a mixing assembly to mix the one or more ingredients using gyroscopic mixing.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can receive a first set of static lighting information associated with a first static lighting setup and a second set of static lighting information associated with a second static lighting setup. The first set of static lighting information and the second set of static lighting information are associated with a scene to be rendered. A first set of global illumination information is precomputed based on the first set of static lighting information. A second set of global illumination information is precomputed based on the second set of static lighting information. The first and second sets of global illumination information are blended to derive a blended set of global illumination information. The scene is rendered in a real-time application based on the blended set of global illumination information.

Abstract: An assembly for securing a tailgate to a cargo bed includes, among other things, a strap having a first leg spaced from a second leg, and a fastener moveable to an engaged position with the strap. The fastener in the engaged position extends through a first aperture in the first leg to threadably engage a second aperture in the second leg. When the fastener is in the engaged position, the fastener and the strap are configured to secure a tailgate to a cargo bed.

Abstract: Heterocyclic entities that modulate PI3 kinase activity, pharmaceutical compositions containing the heterocyclic entities, and methods of using these chemical entities for treating diseases and conditions associated with PI3 kinase activity are described herein.

Abstract: A system for sample, trial, and/or full-sized products includes a container defining at least one cavity, a product disk, a cosmetic product, an applicator, and an applicator engaging mechanism operably coupled with the applicator.
