  • Publication number: 20240134727
    Abstract: A storage device write-read error reduction system includes a computing device that includes a storage device. The storage device determines, at a temperature that is within a predefined temperature range, that a storage device background operation should be performed and, in response, identifies data that is stored in the storage device and that was written to the storage device outside the predefined temperature range. The storage device then prioritizes the data that was written to the storage device outside the predefined temperature range over data that was written to the storage device within the predefined temperature range and, based on that prioritization, performs the storage device background operation to rewrite the data to the storage device.

  • Publication number: 20240127367
    Abstract: A crop prediction system performs various machine learning operations to predict crop production and to identify a set of farming operations that, if performed, optimize crop production. The crop prediction system uses crop prediction models trained using various machine learning operations based on geographic and agronomic information. Responsive to receiving a request from a grower, the crop prediction system can access information representation of a portion of land corresponding to the request, such as the location of the land and corresponding weather conditions and soil composition. The crop prediction system applies one or more crop prediction models to the access information to predict a crop production and identify an optimized set of farming operations for the grower to perform.

  • Patent number: 7274684
    Abstract: In a complete network-in-a-box system acting as an enterprise network demarcation point, packets such as voice, video and data packets, are routed over common network connections, such as LAN and WAN. The packets are mapped from a public address field (such as an IP address) and port number to a private address field and port number, the mapping process typically being handled by a NAT (Network Address Translation). The packets are also prioritized, by marking the packets for priority queuing and routing, and configuring the bandwidths of the WAN traffic and the voice traffic to predetermined quantities and configuring the address fields of the voice devices. Simultaneous transmission of the various packets can be limited to predetermined quantities, typically by utilizing a CAC (Client Access Control).

  • Publication number: 20060160078
    Abstract: Disclosed is a lateral flow assay device to test for the presence and/or amount of a nucleic acid sequence of interest in a sample, the lateral flow device comprising: (a) a sample receiving zone for contacting the device with a sample to be tested; (b) an extraction zone (8) for extraction of nucleic acid from the sample; (c) a nucleic acid amplification zone (18) in liquid communication with the sample receiving zone; and (d) a detection zone (20) for detecting the products, directly or indirectly, of a nucleic acid amplification reaction performed in the nucleic acid amplification zone, said detection zone (20) being, or being locatable, in liquid communication with the amplification zone (18).
