  • Patent number: 11104941
    Abstract: This disclosure provides, among other things, a 5? adapter of the formula 3?*—X—(5?5?)—Y—3?, where: 3?* is a blocked 3? end, X is a synthetic sequence, (5?5?) is an internal 5?-5? linkage, Y is an adapter sequence, and 3? is a hydroxylated 3? end. In use, sequence X hybridizes to sequence X? in a population of RNA molecules of formula R—X?, which increases the efficiency of ligation of the 5? adapter to the nucleic acid molecules.

  • Patent number: 10769234
    Abstract: Examples herein involve a document object model (DOM) transaction crawler. Examples herein involve identifying an event in a first state of a document object model. The event is executed to cause a state change from the first state of the document object model to a second state of the document object model. Furthermore, the state change is stored in a transaction log to store the difference between the first state of the document object model and the second state of the document object model.

  • Patent number: 10728328
    Abstract: An Ethernet SAN system includes an initiator device and a target device coupled together by an Ethernet fabric that includes a plurality of Ethernet switch devices. The Ethernet switch devices exchange L2 FIP domain exchange multicast frames that include domain information associated with each of the Ethernet switch devices. That domain information is then used to exchange L2 FIP path exchange multicast frames that include path information associated with each of the Ethernet switch devices. That path information is then used to calculate path costs associated with at least some of the Ethernet switch devices. Those path costs are then used to exchange L2 FIP device exchange unicast frames that include device information associated with the initiator device and the target device. The Ethernet switch devices then transmit data between the initiator device and the target device based on the device information and the path costs.

  • Patent number: 10655969
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for determining and/or generating a navigation path through a three-dimensional (3D) model are presented. At least one waypoint location within a captured 3D model of an architectural environment is determined. A path within the captured 3D model, to navigate between a first location associated with the captured 3D model and a second location associated with the captured 3D model, is determined based on the at least one waypoint location. Visual data indicative of 2D data or 3D data of the captured 3D model along the path is transmitted to a remote client device to simulate navigation of the path within the captured 3D model between the first location and the second location.
