Abstract: Examples disclosed herein are relevant to monitoring and treating sensory conditions affecting an individual. Sensors and intelligence integrated within a sensory prosthesis (e.g., an auditory prosthesis) can automatically obtain objective data regarding the ability of one or more of an individuals senses during day-to-day activities. A treatment action can be taken based on the objective data. Further disclosed herein are techniques relating to reducing the gathering of irrelevant sensory input and automatically transmitting relevant data to a caregiver device.

Abstract: In order to provide a reliable interconnection between a wireless mesh network and an external network, more than one border router device may be deployed. A novel load balancing method, and the related system and devices, are disclosed in this invention. By embedding actual traffic load information in the frequency of sending the border router advertisements, automatic traffic load balancing among multiple border routers is realized in 5 the system, without extra signaling overhead or any change to the beacon packet structure.

Abstract: In some aspects, a non-transitory computer readable storage medium includes instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to detect that system software is proceeding to swap memory content of a virtual machine (VM) from memory to storage, wherein the memory is allocated to the VM; buffer the memory content; and perform alternative memory reclamation of the memory.

Abstract: A liquid treatment system has a liquid inlet, a liquid storage system, a filter, an inline ultraviolet (UV) reactor, and a liquid outlet. The liquid inlet receives a liquid. The filter removes a contaminant from the liquid. The inline UV reactor mitigates impurities in the liquid. The liquid storage system, the filter, and the inline UV reactor form a liquid channel between the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet. The liquid outlet is downstream from the liquid inlet. The inline UV reactor and the filter are downstream of the liquid storage system.

Abstract: A video game matchmaking and match authentication system is configured to interact with a third party game software and game server to supplement or replace that third party's matchmaking process. The system builds a player profile and unique player signature for each player based upon their performance within a game, and based upon the raw player inputs received from a game controller. The player signature indicates the player's skill within a particular game or game genre, and also provides a unique representation of the player's expected performance, skill, and raw inputs for future matches within that game or game genre. Matchmaking is player driven to provide a desired match experience, and player skill matching occurs based on the player signatures. Monitoring and authentication occurs during the match and is based on analysis of raw inputs and match events to identify irregularities that suggest intentional manipulation.
