Abstract: A variable holder module secures a variety of different expansion cards that may be installed within a computer or other information handling system. The holder module has a multi-sided component that is orientable according to which expansion card is to be secured within the computer. Each side of the component may thus correspond to a different one of the expansion cards. Once the expansion card is determined, a human or robotic picker need only orient component to the side that corresponds to the make/model of the expansion card. The holder module is thus adaptable to secure many different expansion cards that may be installed within the computer.

Abstract: A magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) device includes a first array region and a second array region on a substrate, a first magnetic tunneling junction (MTJ) on the first array region, a first top electrode on the first MTJ, a second MTJ on the second array region, and a second top electrode on the second MTJ. Preferably, the first top electrode and the second top electrode include different nitrogen to titanium (N/Ti) ratios.

Abstract: Techniques for efficiently performing public land mobile network (PLMN) list generation or PLMN search on user equipment for use in a mobile communication system are described. The user equipment is operating in a plurality of supported modes and each supported mode includes a plurality of frequency bands. The user equipment includes an antenna, two RF transceivers and a processor. The RF transceivers are coupled to the antenna for operating in the operating frequency bands via the antenna. The processor coupled to the RF transceivers receives a request requesting PLMN list generation or PLMN search, determines whether both or either of the RF transceivers are available for handling the PLMN list generation or PLMN search, respectively directs the RF transceivers to generate a PLMN list or perform a search for at least one selected operating frequency band according to the request and a dispatch rule, and provides a corresponding execution result.

Abstract: A system for handling packet-switched data transmission is provided. The system includes a first RF module, a second RF module, a first subscriber identity card camping on a cell via the first RF module, a second subscriber identity card camping on the same cell or a different cell via the second RF module and a load balancing unit. The load balancing unit receives an uplink IP packet, determines one subscriber identity card from the first and second subscriber identity cards when the uplink IP packet comprises information regarding an unestablished connection of a recognized application, and transmits the uplink IP packet to a destination via the determined subscriber identity card and the RF module corresponding to the determined subscriber identity card.

Abstract: Wireless communication methods and apparatuses for reducing data retransmission are provided. One wireless communication apparatus performs one of the methods comprising the steps of determining whether a reset is triggered; if yes, receiving a status report and transmitting a datum having not been received successfully in response to the status report. Another wireless communication apparatus performs another method comprising the steps of receiving a trigger of a reset; determining what datum having been received successfully in response to the trigger; and generating a status report under a particular condition. The status report indicates the datum having been received successfully.
