Abstract: A combined heat and power system for generating power using a hydrogen internal combustion engine and producing usable heat from the exhaust gases of the hydrogen internal combustion engine is described. The system includes a heat exchanger and reduction device, such as a catalytic converter. The heat exchanger may extract heat from the exhaust gases upstream of the catalytic converter and thereby control the heat of exhaust gases provided to the catalytic converter for reduction of exhaust gases. The catalytic converter may use hydrogen as a reducing agent, thereby using the same fuel source for powering the engine and reduction of the exhaust gases rather than separate working fluids. The heat exchanger and/or operating parameters of the system may be controlled to control a temperature of exhaust gases at the catalytic converter and thereby control efficiency of the conversion of exhaust gases.

Abstract: Apparatus, and their methods of manufacture, including an integrated circuit device having metallization layers for interconnecting underlying electronic devices. Contacts contact conductors of an uppermost one of the metallization layers. A planarized first dielectric layer covers the contacts and the uppermost one of the metallization layers. An anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) stack is on the first dielectric layer between vertically aligned portions of an etch stop layer formed on the first dielectric layer and a second dielectric layer formed on the etch stop layer. Vias extend through the first dielectric layer to electrically connect the AMR stack and the contacts. A chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) stop layer is on the AMR stack. A third dielectric layer is on the CMP stop layer. A passivation layer contacts the second dielectric layer portions, the third dielectric layer, and each opposing end of the AMR stack and the CMP stop layer.

The method may include, during a voice communication with a caller via a caller device, receiving from the caller device caller input data indicative of a voice input of the caller, without having first provided to the caller device any voice prompt that requests a first type of caller information, and determining, by processing the caller input data, that the voice input includes caller information of the first type. The method also includes after determining that the voice input includes the caller information of the first type, bypassing one or more voice prompts, of the available voice prompts, that request the first type of caller information.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine system is described herein. The system uses an additive added to the exhaust of the internal combustion engine to maintain a range of NO2 to NO within a range that provides for a fast SCR reaction in a selective catalyst reduction unit. The additive and the exhaust enter a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), whereby the NO2 undergoes a two-stage process. In the first stage, the NO2 from the exhaust is adsorbed onto the precious metal catalyst of the DOC and an atomic oxygen is removed from the NO2, reducing the NO2 to NO. Because of the higher reactivity of the additive, the additive scavenges a portion of the atomic oxygen from the catalyst. During the second stage of the DOC process, the NO is oxidized over the catalyst to form NO2.

Abstract: Protecting sensitive data from unauthorized disclosure is provided. For example, systems, methods, and computer readable storage devices are described that may be operable or configured to tokenize sensitive data attributes that may be included in a data file received from a client. Tokens that are anonymized but representative of the attributes may be generated and mapped to the sensitive data attributes. A tokenized data file may be de-tokenized and re-tokenized to perform processes that require the sensitive data attributes. A document may be transformed to protect the sensitive data attributes while reducing risk of disclosure of the sensitive data.
