Abstract: A web service for pre-caching web content on a mobile device includes receiving a request from the mobile device for first web content, fetching the first web content, determining second web content to pre-fetch based upon the first web content, fetching the second web content, and causing the second web content to be stored in a content cache on the mobile device responsive to the request for the first web content. Pre-caching web content in this manner provides web content to the mobile device that the user of the mobile device is likely to access. Pre-caching of additional web content prior to receiving an explicit request improves web browsing performance of the mobile device.

Abstract: A method for forming a glass article and the corresponding glass article are provided. The method for forming a glass article includes providing a glass substrate sheet, and translating a pulsed laser beam on the glass substrate sheet. The pulsed laser forms a laser damage region extending from first surface of the glass substrate sheet a mid-point of the glass substrate sheet. The method further includes contacting the glass substrate sheet with an etchant solution to form channels at the laser damage region, the channels having width and depth dimensions of less than 150 ?m. The glass article includes a first surface, a second surface, a channel extending from the first surface to point between the first surface and the second surface. The channel has width and height dimensions less than about 150 ?m.

Abstract: A load position indicating system includes a portable, stand-alone computing device for use on the loader.

Abstract: A method of finishing glass sheets includes forming a stack comprising alternating layers of unfinished glass sheets and spacer pads. The stack is such that there is no physical contact between any two adjacent unfinished glass sheets and outer edges of the spacer pads are recessed relative to outer edges of the unfinished glass sheets. The stack is secured by clamping the unfinished glass sheets and spacer pads together and then supported on a working surface. The unfinished glass sheets of the stack are finished simultaneously while the stack is supported on the working surface. After the finishing, the stack comprises alternating layers of finished glass sheets and spacer pads.

Abstract: An authentication server and methods of generating a token for use by a mobile device to establish authorization for the mobile device to access a service provided by a service server, the method comprising receiving a request for the token from the mobile device, generating the token comprising location data identifying a location for the mobile device and authentication data indicating a level of access that the mobile device is permitted to have to the service provided by the service server, and transmitting the token to the mobile device.

Abstract: A load-bearing medical implant is disclosed that includes a load-bearing structure with a cavity extending into the outer surface of the structure. The cavity accommodates a sensor that is held in a fixed position within the cavity by an encapsulant. The cavity is covered by a plate that is welded over the cavity in close proximity to the sensor and encapsulant to provide a seal over the cavity and the electronic component without causing thermal damage to the encapsulant or sensor despite the close proximity of the encapsulant and sensor to the welded areas of the plate and structure. Methods for encapsulating the sensor in the cavity, methods for encapsulating a wire bus leading from the sensor through a channel in the implant and methods for pulsed laser welding of weld plate over the sensor and encapsulant with thermal damage to either are disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to orthopaedic implants, and more particularly to orthopaedic implants having data acquisition capabilities and their use in monitoring and diagnosing fracture healing.

Abstract: Certain tetrahydro-pyrimidoazepine compounds are described, which are useful as TRPV1 modulators. Such compounds may be used in pharmaceutical compositions and methods for the treatment of disease states, disorders, and conditions mediated by TRPV1. Thus, the compounds may be administered to treat, e.g., pain, itch, cough, asthma, or inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract: A communications system may include a plurality of client devices configured to generate client processing jobs, each having a respective unique client ID associated therewith. A plurality of geographically spaced apart servers may be configured to process the client processing jobs, each having a respective unique server ID associated therewith. A load balancer may be configured to receive the client processing jobs from the plurality of client devices, and for each client processing job, generate a respective load balancing score for each server based upon the client ID of the client device requesting the client processing job, the server ID of each server, a processing load metric for each server, and a separation metric corresponding to a separation between the requesting client device and each server. The load balancer may also be configured to assign each client processing job to a respective server based upon the load balancing scores.
