  • Phase fraction measurement using continuously adjusted light source
    Patent number: 10054537
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a pipe through which a multiphase fluid flows, with a transparent window structure formed in the pipe. A collimated light source emits light through the transparent window structure into the pipe having a wavelength at which a component of a desired phase of the multiphase fluid is absorptive. A photodetector is positioned such that the emitted light passes through the multiphase fluid in the pipe to impinge upon the photodetector. The photodetector has an actual dynamic range for collimated light detection. Processing circuitry is configured to continuously adjust a power of the collimated light source dependent upon an output level of the photodetector so as to cause measurement of the emitted light over an effective dynamic range greater than the actual dynamic range, and determine a property of the multiphase fluid as a function of the power of the collimated light source.

  • USING PHYSICAL LAYER (PHY) DATA FRAME HAVING A PHY HEADER INCLUDING A DESTINATION ADDRESS FIELD IN A POWERLINE COMMUNICATION (PLC) NETWORK
    Publication number: 20180234526
    Abstract: In a disclosed embodiment, a method for communication in a network includes receiving, at a first device registered to the network, a physical layer (PHY) frame that includes a PHY header and a MAC header. The PHY frame may further include a MAC payload. The PHY header includes a destination address field. The method further includes comparing a network address of the first device to the destination address field to determine whether the destination address field stores a value having the same number of bits as the network address. When the comparison indicates that the value stored by the destination address field does not have the same number of bits as the network address, the method skips decoding the MAC header and the MAC payload.

  • CELL CHIP AND DYNAMIC DIALYSIS STAINING FOR CELLS
    Publication number: 20180230416
    Abstract: A cell chip including first and second substrates and a dye dialysis layer disposed therebetween is provided. A cell-assembly region of the dye dialysis layer is disposed corresponding to a first hole of the first substrate, includes second holes and is configured to contain a sample solution containing cells. A size of the second hole is smaller than that of the cell. The cells are arranged on the cell-assembly region in a single layer manner. When a dye enters into the cell-assembly region via the first hole, the dye diffuses from the cell-assembly region to the micro-channel structure due to a concentration difference between the dye and a washing solution in the micro-channel structure. Thereby, the cells are dyed. Also, the washing solution passes in and out the cell chip via the second holes to accelerate the dye diffusion, and a high efficiency dynamic dialysis staining for cells is achieved.

  • VIRTUAL MACHINE (VM)-TO-VM FLOW CONTROL FOR OVERLAY NETWORKS
    Publication number: 20180232252
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a system includes a processing circuit and logic integrated with and/or executable by the processing circuit that causes the processing circuit to receive a congestion notification message from a first virtual switch of a first server indicating that a first virtual machine (VM) hosted by the first server is overloaded. The logic also causes the processing circuit to advertise a congestion status of the first VM in a congestion status message to one or more virtual switches in a network in response to receiving the congestion notification message. Moreover, the logic causes the processing circuit to cause all virtual switches in the network except for the first virtual switch to stop sending traffic destined for the first VM while the first VM is overloaded without restricting sending traffic that is destined for other VMs hosted by the first server.
