Abstract: This disclosure describes various examples of a system which uses a multi-bank, multi-port shared memory system that may be implemented as part of a system on a chip. The shared memory system may have particular applicability in the context of an artificial reality system, and may be designed to have distributed or varied latency for one or more memory banks and/or one or more components or subsystems within the system on a chip. The described shared memory system may be logically a single entity, but physically may have multiple memory banks, each accessible by any of a number of components or subsystems. In some examples, the memory system may enable concurrent, common, and/or shared access to memory without requiring, in some situations, full locking or arbitration.

Abstract: The instant technology generally relates to a topical (e.g. transdermal) patch for delivery of an active agent. The patch comprises soluble, hydrophilic polycaprolactone (PCL) as a delivery substrate for an active agent of interest. Soluble, hydrophilic PCL can be formulated to adjust the degradation rate of the PCL, in order to deliver the active agent at a desired delivery rate.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to materials and methods useful for improving the efficacy of a plant breeding program such as, for example, the method for producing hybrid seeds in a facultative apomictic crop species, which in turns are useful for, for example, commercial production of highly uniform hybrid progeny. Hybrid seeds produced by such improved breeding methods, and plant grown from such hybrid seeds are also within the scope of the present invention. The disclosure further relates to processes for making a plant-derived product derived from any of the foregoing hybrid plants, and plant-derived products produced by such processes.
