Abstract: In some examples, a mount includes a mounting plate. In some examples, the mounting plate includes mounting holes disposed in a rectangular pattern on the mounting plate to mount a device to the mounting plate. In some examples, the mount includes an adjustment mechanism disposed within a depression of the mounting plate. In some examples, the mount includes a coupler to couple the mounting plate to a support.

Abstract: Systems that include integrated circuit dies and voltage regulator units are disclosed. Such systems may include a voltage regulator module and an integrated circuit mounted in a common system package. The voltage regulator module may include a voltage regulator circuit and one or more passive devices mounted to a common substrate, and the integrated circuit may include a System-on-a-chip. The system package may include an interconnect region that includes wires fabricated on multiple conductive layers within the interconnect region. At least one power supply terminal of the integrated circuit may be coupled to an output of the voltage regulator module via a wire included in the interconnect region.

Abstract: Various computer-implemented methods for utilizing a modified upper confidence bound (UCB) in an agent-simulator environment in well placement planning for oil fields are disclosed herein. A set of well placement sequences for placing well in a geographical region may be received, where each well placement sequent defines a sequence of multiple oil wells to be placed within the geographical region. A computer-implemented simulation may be executed on each of the well placement sequences to determine, for each of the well placement sequences, a reward based upon a calculated hydrocarbon recovery and a cost of the calculated hydrocarbon recovery. The well placement sequences may be iteratively selected for the computer-implemented simulations using the modified UCB algorithm and based upon the rewards determined for each of the plurality of well placement sequences.

Abstract: A managed mobile voice over internet protocol (VoIP) overlay network for use by public carriers for managing the connectivity and transport of media over the Internet is disclosed in accordance with an embodiment and method of the present invention.

Abstract: An on-column conductivity detector for microcolumn electrokinetic separation systems is disclosed. The detector is based on the column itself, the column having a largest internal cross-sectional dimension of 500 microns or less and includes one or more sensing electrodes positioned directly upon or immediately adjacent to (i.e. contiguous with) the wall of the column into communication with the analyte stream so as to present no dead volume and no increase in cross-sectional area to the fluid flow. In one embodiment, this conductivity detector has a single on-column electrode, located immediately adjacent to the exit end of the column. In a preferred embodiment, this conductivity detector has one or more pairs of on-column sensing electrodes and these paired electrodes are located directly across from each other on the microcolumn, to minimize potential across the electrodes and concomitant electrochemical reactions.
