Abstract: A process for making a polycondensation pre-polyester, a polyester or both, comprising the following steps: following steps: A. Acylation of at least one diacid chloride with at least one alcohol to form at least one diester; B. Partial hydrolysis of the diester product of Step A to form at least one monoacid; C. Esterifying the monoacid of Step B with at least one diol to form a diester; D. Reacting the diester of Step C under acidic conditions to form a diacid; and subsequently, performing either Step E or Step F as follows: E. Bisalkylation of the diacid of Step D with at least one haloalcohol to form a pentamer, or F. Esterifiying the diacid of Step D under esterification conditions with at least one diol to form a pentamer, provided that the diol is not the same as the diol used in Step C.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for producing interfering RNA biopesticides, such as microbial host organisms engineered to produce interfering RNA molecules which inhibit the expression of a gene in a mosquito disease vectors by RNA interference. Also disclosed herein are polynucleotides, such as expression cassettes encoding such interfering RNA molecule and facilitating integration, such as stable integration into the host organism's genome. Further disclosed herein are compositions including the disclosed nucleotide sequences and host organisms, along with methods of using the same to control mosquito populations.

Abstract: A processor includes an instruction set architecture that having instructions to perform data parallel multiply on a set of 52-bit integers and further instructions that additionally perform an add or subtract on intermediate products of the data parallel multiply. A 52-bit result of the operations is then zero extended to 64-bits.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a processor comprising first circuitry to decode an instruction into a decoded instruction, the instruction to indicate a first source operand, a second source operand and a third operand, and second circuitry including a processing resource to execute the decoded instruction. Responsive to the decoded instruction, the processing resource is to output a result of a modular addition operation based on a data element of first source operand data plus a data element of second source operand data modulo a data element of third operand data, provided that the data elements of the first operand data and second operand data are less than the data element of the third operand data.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a processor comprising first circuitry to decode an instruction into a decoded instruction, the instruction to indicate a first source operand and a second source operand and second circuitry including a processing resource to execute the decoded instruction, wherein responsive to the decoded instruction, the processing resource is to output a result of first source operand data minus second source operand data in response to a determination by the processing resource that the first source operand data is greater than or equal to the second source operand data, otherwise the processing resource is to output the first source operand data.
