Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and a media device for pre-buffering media content streamed to the media device from a server system. The media device is connected to a network and has a rechargeable battery. The media device determines, by means of a bandwidth logic, an available network bandwidth and, by means of a charging logic, a charging level of the rechargeable battery. Based on these determinations, i.e. based on the determined available network bandwidth and the determined charging level of the rechargeable battery the media device selects a pre-buffering policy, by means of a pre-buffering logic, and pre-buffers media content, by means of the pre-buffering logic, from the server system in accordance with the selected pre-buffering policy.

Abstract: This disclosure concerns the providing of media, and more particularly to the streaming of media. In accordance with an example embodiment, while receiving a first media content item of the streamed media content, a request for a second media content item is received, and a first data message sent to the computer server system, to return the second media content item. In response to receiving a second data message the electronic device begins to perform playback of the second media content item combined with the playback of the first media content item at the user interface of the electronic device, e.g. by pausing the first media content item. The electronic device receives a request for including the second media content item in a playlist associated with a current portion of the day, and includes the second media content item into the playlist associated with the current portion of the day.

Abstract: This disclosure concerns the providing of media, and more particularly to the streaming of media. In accordance with an example embodiment, a portion of a day is determined; a first data message is sent to a computer server system. The first data message comprises instructions to the computer server system to return media content associated with the determined portion of the day. A second data message is received from the computer server system, the second data message comprising media content associated with the determined portion of the day. In response thereto is playback performed of the media content at the user interface of the electronic device in dependence of the determined portion of the day. While performing playback is a visual appearance parameter of the user interface adjusted according the determined portion of the day.

Abstract: Method for analyzing a sample comprising at least one ovum or embryo, the method being based on digital holographic imaging, the method comprising the following steps: creating at least one object beam and at least one reference beam of light, where said at least one object beam and said at least one reference beam are mutually coherent; exposing said sample to said at least one object beam; superimposing said at least one object beam that has passed through said sample with said at least one reference beam and thereby creating an interference pattern; detecting said interference pattern, called hologram; reconstructing phase and/or amplitude information of object wavefront from said interference pattern; and constructing at least one ovum or embryo analysis image and determining at least one ovum or embryo quality showing parameter from said phase and/or amplitude information.

Abstract: A circuit comprising a DC current source and at least two spin torque oscillators, the at least two spin torque oscillators being electrically coupled to each other and to the DC current source. A circuit comprising phase shifting means is connected in such a way as to cause a phase shift between current and voltage through the spin torque oscillators. An advantage is that the controlled phase shift significantly increases the tolerance for deviating anisotropy fields, which makes manufacturing of spin torque oscillator devices much more feasible in practice.

Abstract: An embodiment of the invention provides a method for effecting switchback on a spatial division multiple access (SDMA) PHS channel. A communication signal is broadcast over each of one or more SDMA channels of a multi-access channel to one or more corresponding user terminals. A set of transmit spatial weights is determined for a synchronization burst to a user terminal attempting to reestablish communication over an SDMA channel of the multi-access channel. The set of transmit spatial weights is determined such that interference caused by one or more communication signals to the synchronization burst is reduced.
