Abstract: An electronic device includes a semiconductor die and a package structure, the semiconductor die having a semiconductor material with a first thermal conductivity, opposite first and second sides, a terminal on the first side, a trench extending into the second side, and a thermally conductive material in the trench, the thermally conductive material having a second thermal conductivity that is greater than the first thermal conductivity, the first side of the semiconductor die facing a lead frame or substrate, the package structure enclosing a portion of the semiconductor die and a portion of the lead frame or substrate, and the package structure exposing a portion of the thermally conductive material along the second side of the semiconductor die.

Abstract: An optical fiber connector with a connector housing that holds a ferrule includes a retractable shutter having a shutter plate and a shutter actuator. The shutter actuator is slidably connected to the connector housing for movement relative to the connector housing between a front position and a rear position. The shutter actuator is configured to engage the mating interface as the optical fiber connector is plugged into the mating interface whereby the shutter actuator moves relative to the connector housing from the front position to the back position. The shutter plate is connected to the shutter actuator such that the shutter actuator is configured to drive the shutter plate to move between an extended position and a retracted position. In the extended position, the shutter plate is located to shield the ferrule. In the retracted position, the shutter plate is located expose the ferrule.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to pharmaceutical salts and polymorphic forms of pyrimidine derivatives that have inhibitory activities against mutant epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The present disclosure further relates to the processes for the preparation of the pyrimidine derivatives and to the pharmaceutical salts and the polymorphic forms of the pyrimidine derivatives.

Abstract: A method may include generating an optimal operational window (OOW) that specifies operational parameter values for drilling operations using equipment at a rig site, based on data indicative of rig state and formation characteristics, and based on mutation-based optimization of the operational parameter values; and instructing a control system to perform the drilling operations according to the OOW using the equipment at the rig site.

Abstract: Methods and systems for compact presentation of automatically summarized information according to rule-based graphically represented information. One of the methods includes obtaining, via a user accessible user interface, a request for uploaded textual information to be analyzed. Ontology information is accessed based on an indicated type associated with the textual information, and ontology information for the type. The ontology information specifies nodes, with the nodes causing the server system to extract values for textual expressions defined by the nodes, and relational information between the nodes, with the relational information indicating links between textual expressions. The textual information is parsed based on the ontology information. The parsing causes traversal of the nodes and extraction of values from associated textual expressions based on the textual information. Values are obtained based on the parsing, with the values being utilized as summary information.

Abstract: Systems and methods automatically generate contours on an illustrated object for performing an animation. Contour lines are generated on the surface of the object according to criteria related to the shape of the surface of the object. Points of the contour lines that are occluded from a virtual camera are identified. The occluded points are removed to generate visible lines. The visible lines are extruded to define a three-dimensional volume defining contours of the object. The object itself, along with the three-dimensional volume, are illuminated and rendered. The parameters defining the opacity and color of the contour may differ from corresponding parameters of the rest of the object, so that the contours stand out and define portions of the object. The contours are useful in contexts such as defining areas of an object that is fuzzy or cloudy in appearance, as well as creating certain artistic effects.
