Abstract: A fuel cell system includes a fuel cell stack having a plurality of fuel cells that each contain a plurality of fuel electrodes and air electrodes. The system includes a fuel receiving unit connected to the fuel cell stack, which receives a hydrocarbon fuel from a fuel supply. The system includes a fuel exhaust processing unit fluidly coupled to the fuel cell stack by a slip stream, where the fuel exhaust processing unit processes fuel exhaust from the fuel cell stack, and the slip stream is fluidly connected to an exhaust stream flowing from the fuel cell stack. The fuel processing unit removes a first portion of carbon dioxide (CO2) from fuel exhaust within the slip stream, outputs the first portion of CO2 in a first stream, and outputs a second portion of CO2 remaining from the fuel exhaust in the slip stream into a second stream, which includes hydrogen.

Abstract: An approach of the present disclosure includes an algorithm to encode an instruction set of a domain-specific processor automatically in an optimal way, and which yields area-effective hardware. Instruction operands and opcodes can be encoded separately or at the same time. Instructions are not encoded one by one but can be encoded in groups, and instructions are grouped automatically. The decoding logic of control signals for each group of instructions, such as register read enable and write enable, is fed to a logic minimizer to obtain an encoding constraint matrix, and the encoding of each instruction in each instruction group is done using an optimal state assignment method.

Abstract: A display device establishes a secure communications session with a mobile device and receives an image-based item associated with a unique cryptographic token. The display device determines, based on metadata parsed from the unique cryptographic token, authenticity information and chain-of-ownership information for the cryptographic token. In response to determining that user account information for the secure communications session corresponds to an item included in the chain-of-ownership information, the display device displays the image-based item, and an indicator component of the display device provides an indication of authenticity for the image-based item.

Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein provide for a software defined network (SDN) controller that virtualizes network elements to provide content delivery and data services through the virtualized network elements. In one embodiment, the SDN controller is operable in a cloud computing environment to balance data traffic through the virtualized network elements. For example, the SDN controller may abstract Layer 2 Control Protocol (L2CP) frame processing of the network elements into the cloud computing environment to relieve the network elements from the burdens of Ethernet frame processing. In this regard, the SDN controller comprises a L2CP decision module that determines how L2CP should be processed for the network elements.
