Abstract: The disclosed technology, in certain embodiments, generates customized assessments based on educational content to match the needs and learning styles of individual learners. The educational content may be identified and provided to a user based on user profile information such as grade, age, and/or education level. Moreover, the disclosed technology can adapt the educational content for an individual user based on a preferred learning style of the user.

Abstract: In one embodiment of the invention, a method for protecting a content addressable memory is disclosed. The method includes storing a marker bit associated with each data block stored in a random access memory (RAM), states of the marker bit representing whether the data block was recently read from the RAM or recently written into the RAM; receiving a client address pointing to a starting address of a data block stored in the RAM; comparing the client address against one or more addresses stored in a content addressable memory (CAM) to determine a hit indicating the client address was stored in the CAM or a miss indicating the client address was not stored in the CAM; and in response to a miss, the method further includes checking a state of the marker bit associated with the data block pointed to by the client address.

Abstract: Methods and systems for extending the life of a dehydrogenation catalyst are described herein. For example, one embodiment includes providing a reaction vessel loaded with a dehydrogenation catalyst with a feedstream via a conduit in operable communication with the reaction vessel. The feedstream may include an alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon and the dehydrogenation catalyst may be adapted to convert the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon to a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon. The feedstream may be contacted with an aqueous catalyst life extender, wherein the aqueous catalyst life extender enters the conduit at a linear velocity sufficient to prevent vaporization of the catalyst life extender in the conduit prior to contact with the feedstream.

The PLL circuit may correct for clock skew or produce a desired degree of clock skew between input and output clock signals in different operating modes.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for improving the MSI and MSI-X specifications by implementing an efficient delivery and clearing mechanism for interrupt conditions to increase performance between the driver and hardware/firmware interface while ensuring that no interrupts are lost in the process. In particular, an auto clear function is employed to eliminate the need for drivers in the host to send writes over the PCI-based bus to deassert and assert attention enable register bits and clear down attention register bits, and a fail safe mechanism is utilized to prevent lost interrupts.
