Abstract: A method for controlling a device for automatically adjusting an airway opening body position is provided. The device includes a horizontal base plate, a head support block, a back support plate, a neck support apparatus, a head cover assembly, and a programmable logic controller (PLC). The neck support apparatus is positioned between the head support block and the back support plate. The PLC is configured to controls a stroke of an electric cylinder according to the following equations: ?=1.235?+?, and ?=KX+B+C, where ? is a body position angle, the body position angle is an angle between a positive projection line of a connecting line from a mandibular angle to an external acoustic meatus on a symmetrical surface of a human body and the back support plate, and ? is a preset value ranging from 90° to 100°.

Abstract: A well cementing method is described for improving cementing quality by controlling the hydration heat of cement slurry. By controlling the degree and/or rate of hydration heat release from cement slurry, the method improves the hydration heat release during formation of cement with curing of cement slurry, improves the binding quality between the cement and the interfaces, and in turn improves the cementing quality at the open hole section and/or the overlap section. The cementing method improves cementing quality of oil and gas wells and reduces the risk of annular pressure.

Abstract: Disclosed are various examples of providing AI accelerator access as a service at the edge. In some embodiments an artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator device identifier is transmitted to register an AI accelerator with the AI broker service. An AI processing request for the AI accelerator is received from a networked computing device. A bus redirect of the AI accelerator to the networked device is enabled. An AI workload is performed controlled by the networked device through the bus redirect.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a homogeneous, time resolved, Förster resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET)-based method for detection of SARS-CoV-2, SARS CoV-1, and MERS-CoV antibodies in a patient fluid sample.

Abstract: Example methods are provided for a host to perform authentication offload in a virtualized computing environment that includes the host and a destination server. The method may comprise detecting, from a virtualized computing instance, a packet destined for the destination server. The method may also comprise: in response to determination that the detected packet is an authentication request, obtaining, from the virtualized computing instance, metadata associated with a client application for which authentication is requested; and sending the authentication request and the metadata to the destination server to cause the destination server to authenticate the client application based on the metadata.

Abstract: A method for protecting firmware being updated is applicable to an electronic device installed with an open operating platform and applicable to a firmware update tool having a preset unlocking password. The method includes an unlocking step and a specific password generating step. In the specific password generating step, the unlocking password is updated according to the difference between product serial number-related information at the point in time of delivery of an electronic device. Although the preset unlocking password in the source code of the firmware update tool is disclosed, nobody other than the electronic product users and the electronic device manufacturers knows the first unlocking password and the second unlocking password. Accordingly, the method provides a security mechanism for the electronic device and the firmware update tool.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a process for preparing a water- and oil-repellent agent for textile including conducting a polymerization in a mixture of perfluoroalkyl(meth)acrylate (mixture)/alkyl(meth)acrylate/hydroxyalkyl(meth)acrylate/polyoxyalkylene glycol mono(meth)acrylate/non-ionic surfactant/ionic surfactant/vinyl monomer/chain transfer agent/water/organic dissolution agent/free radical initiator under stirring to form an emulsion containing a copolymer particles having an average particle size of about 100 nm, which can be diluted with water as desired to form a water- and oil-repellent agent aqueous dispersion. The process of the present invention does not require a high pressure homogenizer or a special emulsifying equipment.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for evaluating the auditory distortion of an audio system, wherein an audio signal, whose auditory distortions are to be evaluated, is filtered by a notch filter to remove its fundamental frequency, and is then fed through a primary weighting network comprising three high pass filters followed by a secondary weighting network. The filtered, weighted signal is then amplified, recitified, further filtered, compared by taking the ratio with the magnitude of original signal and finally fed to a display unit to sow a figure that represents auditory distortion characteristics consistent with what is actually perceived by human auditory faculties.
