Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating field testing of a test application are provided. In certain implementations, one or more metrics related to execution, at a user device, of one or more operations of the test application may be obtained. A determination of whether an error occurred with an operation of the one or more operations may be effectuated based on the one or more metrics. Error information relating to the error may be caused to be transmitted to one or more other user devices, wherein the error information includes information for replicating the error. Replication information relating to an attempt by the first other user device to replicate the error may be received back from at least a first other user device of the one or more other user devices. A determination of whether the first other user device replicated the error may be effectuated based on the replication information.

Abstract: Techniques and examples pertaining to vehicle water wading safety are described. A processor implementable to a vehicle approaching a waterbody may receive data related to the waterbody from one or more above-water or under-water sensors. The processor may determine a top surface and a bottom profile of the waterbody, and calculate one or more critical trajectories of water-sensitive components of the vehicle if the vehicle is to wade through the waterbody by traversing the bottom profile. The processor may then determine the wading safety based on the critical trajectories and the top surface of the waterbody. The processor may further determine a wading route, and autonomously drive the vehicle to wade the waterbody via the optimal wading route.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, latency measurement related to touch screen response may be facilitated. In some embodiments, a robotic member may be moved to perform a physical contact with a touch screen of a device. Frame change rates of the touch screen may be monitored. A response end time of a response depicted on the touch screen may be determined based on the monitored frame change rates of the touch screen, where the touch-screen-depicted response is a response to. A latency of the touch screen response to the first contact may be determined based on a contact time of the physical contact and the response end time.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, carrier-specific configuration of a user device may be facilitated based on pre-stored information for multiple carriers. In some embodiments, a user device may store information for limited access (that allows the user device to obtain carrier-specific parameters from carrier networks). During activation, the user device may select one of the carrier networks on which the user device is to be configured to operate. Responsive to the selection, the user device may provide, to a carrier-side computer system on the selected carrier network, a request for limited access to the selected carrier network for configuring the user device, wherein the request comprises the stored access information that allows the user device to obtain carrier-specific parameters via the selected carrier network. Responsive to the limited access being granted, the user device may obtain a configuration package from the carrier-side computer system comprising parameters for configuring the user device.

Abstract: A pharmaceutically active composition containing an effective amount of a pharmacologically active ingredient such as an antifungal and a carrier. The carrier comprises dimethyl isosorbide, undecylenic acid, a lower carboxylic acid other than undecylenic acid, a monohydric alcohol having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, and urea.

Abstract: A vehicle controller determines likelihood of downshifting, such as by detecting braking and clutch disengagement. In response, the vehicle controller determines a desired angular velocity for the engine for a gear lower than a current gear. A tachometer display is updated to indicate the current angular velocity of the engine and the desired angular velocity. A difference between current and desired angular velocities is determined and fill in a region of the tachometer display, such as a sector between needles indicating current and desired angular velocities or most or all of a surface of the tachometer. The tachometer may be updated in the same manner according to a desired angular velocity in cases where the drive shifts into gear following coasting in neutral.

Abstract: A method for treating discoloration of nails comprising applying to the nails a composition containing undecylenic acid, a urea-based component, a monohydric alcohol such as isopropanol, a diol such as propylene glycol, dimethyl isosorbide, and a carboxylic acid other than undecylenic acid, preferably lactic acid.

Abstract: Techniques and examples pertaining to vehicle sensor health monitoring are described. A processor of a road-side station may receive first data from a vehicle and receive second data from one or more sensors associated with the road-side station. The processor may compare the first data and the second data. In response to a result of the comparing indicating a difference between the first data and the second data, the processor may generate a report.
