Abstract: Information technology service management (ITSM) incident reports are converted from textual data to multiple vectors using an encoder and parameters are selected, where the parameters include a base cluster number and a threshold value. A base group of clusters is generated using an unsupervised machine learning clustering algorithm with the vectors and the parameters as input. A cluster quality score is computed for each of the base group of clusters. Each cluster from the base group of clusters with the cluster quality score above the threshold value is recursively split into new clusters until the cluster quality score for each cluster in the new clusters is below the threshold value. A final group of clusters is output, where each cluster from the final group of clusters represents ITSM incident reports related to a same problem.

Abstract: A digital phase spacing detector with programmable delay lines is described. Each programmable delay line receives a clock. The output of the programmable delay lines is compared by a logic and then passed through a glitch detector. Each of the clocks pass through the programmable delay lines that are tuned to a point where the clock edges at the output of the delay lines are aligned and glitches start appearing at the output of the logic. A calibration scheme uses replica cells (replica of VCO cells) in the measurement path. The calibration scheme calculates the average of clock phase differences through a digital control replica buffer, and this average clock phase difference is applied to the VCO delay stage cells. The PLL is then allowed to relock with the calibrated VCO delay stage cells. This process can be repeated several times to reduce the phase errors between the clock phases.

Abstract: Trypsin/trypsin-like proteases have been reported to be facilitating SARS-COV-2 entry into host cells. Spike has protease cleavage sites between the S1 and S2 domains. Cleavage property of proteases can be used to design drug screening assays meant for screening antiviral candidates against spike cleavage. In the claimed invention we have developed a proof-of-concept assay system for screening drugs against proteases which cleave spike between S1 and S2. We designed a fusion substrate protein containing a reporter protein, the protease cleavage site between S1 and S2 and a cellulose binding domain. The substrate protein can be immobilized on cellulose due to the presence of cellulose binding domain (CBD). When proteases cleave the substrate. CBD remains bound to cellulose and the reporter protein is dislodged. The released reporter can be used as read out of protease activity.
