Abstract: A distance adjustment apparatus and a control method of the distance adjustment apparatus are provided. The distance adjustment apparatus includes a connection component, and the connection component includes a first component and a second component. The first component is connected to the second component, and a memory alloy component is disposed in a connection region between the first component and the second component. The memory alloy component is controlled by a current to drive the first component and the second component to move closer to and/or away from each other.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for alleviating congestion of data traffic in a wireless network in a cell site. The methods determine congestion levels for respective data connections from mobile computing devices to a network through a cell tower in a cell site. The method further determines a congestion level associated with the cell site based on a weighted aggregate of varying congestion levels associated with the respective data connections in the cell site. The disclosed technology includes flow policies associated with congestion levels. The flow policies determine weights used for determining the weighted aggregate and maximum network bandwidth enforced for the respective data connections. The disclosed technology identifies data connections that consume abnormally high amount of network bandwidth and throttles with bias against data traffic associated with these data connections with heavy traffic.

Abstract: Provided are a dual-activating costimulatory molecule receptor and the use thereof. The dual-activating costimulatory molecule receptor comprises the following elements from the N-terminus to the C-terminus: a selectable signal peptide, a costimulatory signal molecule-activating single-chain antibody, an extracellular hinge area, a transmembrane region and an intracellular costimulatory signal molecule. The dual-activating costimulatory molecule receptor can produce a strong clustering effect when co-modifying T-cells with first-generation CAR-T comprising a first signal, can kill tumor cells, and at the same time, does not trigger a strong T-cell immunity or cause potentially serious toxic side effects.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to application of a compositae type cyclopeptide compound or a pharmacologically permissible salt as a cGAS-STING signal channel inhibitor and application of the compositae type cyclopeptide compound or the pharmacologically permissible salt as the cGAS-STING signal channel inhibitor in preparing a drug for treating diseases caused by abnormal activation of a cGAS-STING signal channel. As the compositae type cyclopeptide compound is a natural compound diversified in dosage form and medication mode, the compositae type cyclopeptide compound has a wide clinical application prospect.

Abstract: In a test and debug environment using a JTAG protocol to test a target processing unit, apparatus for multi-value polling permits a poll unit, associated with the scan controller, to determine whether one of several possible signal groups is present in the received data stream. The test and debug unit generates a series of numbers, each number corresponding to a preselected signal groups. The corresponding field in the received data stream is decoded to provide a series of output signals, each output signal corresponding to one group. The output signals of the decoder are compared to corresponding numbers of the expected value. When a signal from the decoder unit is found to correspond to one of the selected data number, the poll operation is a success.

Abstract: In a scan controller in a test and debug system using a JTAG protocol for polling for a signal value, a poll command logic unit compares the value of each logic signal received from a target processor with the value of the expected logic value. The position in the received data stream of each logic value is compared with an expected position. When the expected value and the expected position coincide, a flag is forwarded to the test and debug unit indicating a successful polling operation. A command in the command register of the scan controller enables the apparatus to continue to poll the target processing unit in the absence of the (success) flag.

Abstract: In a JTAG test and debug environment, the signal groups may have a variable length, a fixed length or a combination of both fixed and variable signal groups to be transferred to the target processor. To implement the three types of data transfers, the storage unit associated with the scan control unit includes two types of storage locations, fixed signal length storage locations and variable length storage locations. The software can select the mode of data transfer and this selection is provided to the scan controller by a command.

Abstract: In a JTAG test and debug configuration for testing a target processor, the scan controller includes apparatus for performing the polling operation without the intervention of the test and debug unit. The test and debug unit transfers a command and an expected value to the scan controller. In response to the command and the expected value, the scan controller repeatedly polls the selected location to determine if the expected value is present. When the expected value is identified, the test and debug unit is notified. Provision is made for a timeout of the polling procedure to prevent the polling procedure from monopolizing the scan controller activity.

Abstract: In a JTAG test and debug environment, a test signal group from the target processor is provided with a status field. The status field is compared with the expected status field. In response to this comparison, the fixed signal groups are stored in a first storage unit, expected signal groups are stored in a second storage unit, and other signal groups are stored in a third storage unit. The status field of the signal group transferred from the target processor permits the analysis of the transferred signal group by the test and debug unit.
