Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a vehicle path to operate an autonomous vehicle. A method includes using a lateral re-entry planner system to correct for a lateral reentry error. A longitudinal re-entry planner system is used to correct a longitudinal reentry error. Path correction commands are generated based upon the corrections provided by the lateral re-entry planner system and the longitudinal re-entry planner system.

Abstract: A system and method for testing an integrated circuit module including multiple integrated circuit devices that provide a data strobe signal associated with at least one data signal provided by the same integrated circuit device. A determination of a test outcome for the integrated circuit module may be made after identifying data valid windows for each integrated circuit device, without having to both identify a common sampling window defined by an intersection of the identified data valid windows and verify that such common sampling window meets specification requirements.

Abstract: The present invention includes a bracket for more flexibly deploying a zero unit PDU on a rack. More specifically a 90° bend and a number of slots allow the manipulation of the PDU to avoid blocking cabling at the rear of a server rack.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system and method for testing an integrated circuit module comprising multiple integrated circuit devices, such as a memory module comprising multiple memory devices for example, is disclosed. Embodiments of the method may be employed to test an integrated circuit device of the integrated circuit module that provides a data strobe signal associated with at least one data signal provided by the same integrated circuit device. A determination of a test outcome for the integrated circuit module may be made after identifying data valid windows for each integrated circuit device, without having to both identify a common sampling window defined by an intersection of the identified data valid windows and verify that such common sampling window meets specification requirements, as may be performed by conventional testers.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides for initiation of an agreement utilizing a network. First, a buyer and a seller are allowed to negotiate terms of trade utilizing a network. A form is received from the buyer indicating the terms of trade utilizing the network. Also received utilizing the network is an identifier of the buyer. Thereafter, the form is sent to a bank for assessing the credit of the buyer utilizing the network. The bank to which the credit application is sent is based on the identifier. Next, the form is forwarded to a seller along with the assessment of the credit of the buyer. At such time, the seller is permitted to digitally sign the form utilizing the network. The digitally signed form is then received from the seller utilizing the network after which a notice is sent to the buyer indicating that the digitally signed form has been received from the seller, thus initiating the agreement.

The methods are particularly useful for prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of secondary immunodeficiency, wherein the immunodeficiency is the result of an infection, a malignant neoplastic disease, an autoimmune disease, a protein losing state, an immunosuppressive treatment, surgery or anesthesia.

Abstract: A system, method and article of manufacture are provided for account settlement utilizing a network. First, a buyer is allowed to select from a group of options in order to settle an account utilizing a network. The options include settling a minimum balance, partially settling, settling a full balance, and applying for an import loan on payment due date. The selected option is then received utilizing the network. Finance interest may then be booked against the buyer for an unpaid portion of the account if the selected option includes either settling a minimum balance or partially settling. If the selected option includes settling a full balance, the account may be reconciled. On the other hand, if the selected option includes applying for an import loan on payment due date, an import loan may be booked and a credit line may be transferred to a trade loan line.
