Abstract: A technique involves modular storage of network service plan components and provisioning of same. A subset of the capabilities of a service design system can be granted to a sandbox system to enable customization of service plan offerings or other controls.

Abstract: Methods for replicating transactional tables of a transactional database to an analytical database and maintaining updates to those transactional table representations are disclosed. Snapshots of the transactional tables are provided to the analytical database via a transport mechanism, such as a data storage service or a data streaming service, and stored at the analytical database. Then, checkpoints comprising portions of a change-data-capture log that has recorded transactional changes to the transactional tables of the transactional database are provided to the analytical database via the same or different transport mechanism and used to commit those transactional changes to the snapshot representations. The snapshot representations may be used to respond to incoming analytical queries in order to provide real-time querying results.

Abstract: An anti-graffiti window film covering system that includes multiple polymeric film layers. Each layer includes a unique visual indicia to identify the number of sheets remaining in the system.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides autonomous vehicle systems and methods that include or otherwise leverage a machine-learned yield model. In particular, the machine-learned yield model can be trained or otherwise configured to receive and process feature data descriptive of objects perceived by the autonomous vehicle and/or the surrounding environment and, in response to receipt of the feature data, provide yield decisions for the autonomous vehicle relative to the objects. For example, a yield decision for a first object can describe a yield behavior for the autonomous vehicle relative to the first object (e.g., yield to the first object or do not yield to the first object). Example objects include traffic signals, additional vehicles, or other objects. The motion of the autonomous vehicle can be controlled in accordance with the yield decisions provided by the machine-learned yield model.

Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for routing an autonomous vehicle. A vehicle autonomy system may generate first route data describing a first route for the autonomous vehicle to a first target location and control the autonomous vehicle using the first route data. The vehicle autonomy system may determine that the autonomous vehicle is within a threshold of the first target location and select a second target location associated with at least a second stopping location. The vehicle autonomy system may generate second route data describing a route extension of the first route from the first target location to the second target location and control the autonomous vehicle using the second route data.

Abstract: The invention provides, in various embodiments, polypeptides that specifically bind to Spike glycoprotein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (e.g., SARS-CoV-2-Spike). The invention also provides, in various embodiments, fusion proteins comprising one or more of the polypeptides, polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, vectors and host cells suitable for expressing the polypeptides, and methods for treating viral infections (e.g., COVID-19).
