Abstract: Systems and devices are provided for heating an infusible liquid. The inline heater includes a fluid flow channel defined by a conduit for flowing an infusible liquid through a first portion of the conduit having a first cross-sectional dimension to a second portion of the conduit having a smaller second cross-sectional dimension. A nozzle is disposed in the first portion of the conduit. A heating element in thermal communication with an outer surface of the second portion of the conduit conducts heat through the conduit into the infusible liquid. The nozzle is positioned to spray the infusible liquid about a circumference of an inner wall of the second portion of the conduit to provide increased heat transfer from the heating element to the infusible liquid. The inline heater may be formed as a cassette for use in a dialysis machine.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices related to write broadcast operations associated with a memory device are described. In one example, a memory device in accordance with the described techniques may include a memory array, a sense amplifier array, and a signal development cache configured to store signals (e.g., cache signals, signal states) associated with logic states (e.g., memory states) that may be stored at the memory array (e.g., according to various read or write operations). The memory device may enable write broadcast operations. A write broadcast may occur from one or more signal development components or from one or more multiplexers to multiple locations of the memory array.

Abstract: A vehicular trailer assist system includes a camera disposed at a rear portion of a vehicle and viewing at least rearward of the vehicle, and an electronic control unit (ECU), which includes an image processor for processing image data captured by the camera. The ECU executes a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to determine, via processing of image data captured by the camera, presence of a trailer rearward of the vehicle. The CNN, responsive to processing of image data captured by the camera, determines a position of a trailer relative to the vehicle. The CNN, responsive to determining the position of the trailer, classifies the trailer into a trailer category. The ECU, responsive to the CNN determining the position of the trailer, generates an output based on the trailer classification to autonomously control the vehicle to align the vehicle with the trailer and navigate the vehicle toward the trailer.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for hosting block storage volumes in a hosted computing environment that are supported by multiple underlying elements and that are distributed among physical host devices in a manner that provides for resiliency of the volumes in instances of power failure. As disclosed herein, a block storage volume may be supported by a combination of underlying elements, such as replicas that store data of the volume and replicated authority nodes that designate authority of a replica to accept writes to the volume. To ensure resiliency to power failure, both replicas and authority nodes can be distributed among physical host devices that are supplied by independent power supplies, such that failure of one independent power supply does not render the volume non-operational.

One or more seed points can be selected from the one or more images of the image pyramid. One or more refined seed representing the one or more seed points with added depth values can be generated. One or more scene points can be generated based on the one or more refined seed points. A point cloud can be generated based on the one or more scene points.

Abstract: Computerized systems and methods are provided to intelligently and dynamically manage a data center comprising at least one server and at least one central manager. The central manager is programmed to access the at least one server on a predetermined schedule to determine whether at least one application is functioning properly by determining a functionality level. Alternatively, the central manager determines whether the at least one server is actively used by determining an activity level for the server. Based on the central manager's determinations, the system dynamically adjusts the power level of the server, resulting in reduced power consumption and a reduction in wasted resources and unnecessary processing power in the management of servers in a data center.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for unifying local channels with Over-the-Top (OTT) services (e.g., Internet-streaming media services). In one example aspect, a location is determined. Based on the determined location, a list of local channels available for broadcast in the geographic area is retrieved. The list of local channels is then compared to a list of channels offered via at least one OTT service. Based on the comparison with the OTT service channel offering, a subset of available local channels may be determined. The electronic programming guide (EPG) data and other programming metadata associated with the local channels may be downloaded and provided to the OTT service. The local channels, along with the EPG data and programming metadata, may be merged with the OTT service so that the local channels may be streamed via the OTT service.

Abstract: Some data storage devices have a plurality of memory dies that can be read in parallel for certain types of read requests. Read requests pertaining to a garbage collection operation are often generated sequentially and, thus, are not eligible for parallel execution in the memory dies. In an example data storage device presented herein, such read requests are consolidated and sent to the memory for execution in parallel across the memory dies.

Abstract: Link data is stored in a distributed link descriptor memory (“DLDM”) including memory instances storing protocol data unit (“PDU”) link descriptors (“PLDs”) or cell link descriptors (“CLDs”). Responsive to receiving a request for buffering a current transfer data unit (“TDU”) in a current PDU, a current PLD is accessed in a first memory instance in the DLDM. It is determined whether any data field designated to store address information in connection with a TDU is currently unoccupied within the current PLD. If no data field designated to store address information in connection with a TDU is currently unoccupied within the current PLD, a current CLD is accessed in a second memory instance in the plurality of memory instances of the same DLDM. Current address information in connection with the current TDU is stored in an address data field within the current CLD.
