Abstract: A detonator housing facilitates assembly of detonator components of a perforating gun. In an example, the detonator housing comprises a housing body configured for coupling to a charge tube of a perforating gun. A detonator receptacle is formed on the housing body for receiving a detonator. A detonating cord receptacle is formed on the housing body adjacent the detonator receptacle for receiving an end portion of a detonating cord in an overlapping relationship with the detonator. A detonating cord stop is formed on the detonating cord receptacle to limit an insertion depth of the detonating cord within the detonating cord receptacle.

The growth area relates to one or more competencies. A user interface is caused to be presented on a device of a user based on the user being associated with the job function and the job type. The user interface allows the user to share an update pertaining to a progress of the user within the growth area.

Abstract: Gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having confined epitaxial source or drain structures, are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a plurality of nanowires above a sub-fin. A gate stack is over the plurality of nanowires and the sub-fin. Epitaxial source or drain structures are on opposite ends of the plurality of nanowires. The epitaxial source or drain structures comprise germanium and boron, and a protective layer comprising germanium, silicon and boron that at least partially covers the epitaxial source or drain structures to provide low contact resistivity.

Abstract: A cross-platform integration component is configured for operation on a plurality of different types of partner computing devices and/or platforms. The integration component provides a same interface on each different type of computing device. The integration component comprises a plurality of implementation modules, each configured to implement reader-based transactions on a respective type of computing device and/or platform. The integration component may further comprise a platform-independent component capable of implementing non-reader-based transactions across the plurality of platforms.
