Abstract: A method provides techniques for dynamically modifying vibration haptics of an electronic device. The method includes detecting, by an electronic device comprising a haptic output device, a haptic triggering event. A first haptic output is generated in response to detecting the haptic triggering event. The method continues with waiting a predetermined duration for an acknowledgement of the first haptic output. In response to the first haptic output not being acknowledged after the predetermined duration, a haptic setting of the electronic device is changed to generate a second haptic output that has at least one parameter that differs from a corresponding parameter of the first haptic output, increasing the likelihood of getting the attention of a user in response to the triggering event.

Abstract: An apparatus may include a DC to DC converter that converts a high voltage level from a battery pack to a relatively lower voltage level for various components of a vehicle. The DC to DC converter may provide an alternate power supply in addition to a battery that is separate from the battery pack. The battery pack and the DC to DC converter may be used to supply power, instead of the battery, during a sleep mode of a vehicle. Further, the DC to DC converter can supply power to float charge the battery, thus minimizing cycling of the battery. The DC to DC converter and the battery may provide a redundant, or backup, power source for a vehicle.

Abstract: An engine system that delivers torque to a driveline of a vehicle includes an internal combustion engine (ICE), a manifold, an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) circuit, an electric turbine (eTurbine) and a controller. The EGR circuit has an EGR valve that selectively moves between open and closed positions. The eTurbine is driven by an electric motor and is configured to deliver air away from the manifold. The controller determines an ICE start request and, based on the ICE start request, sends a signal to the EGR valve to open thereby fluidly connecting the manifold and the eTurbine. The controller sends a signal to the eTurbine to rotate and move air out of the manifold through the EGR circuit. The eTurbine is used to deplete air in the manifold before starting the ICE. As a result, a reduction in fuel used and therefore a reduction in emissions at startup is achieved.

The fastener is configured to draw each of the first and second clamping arms towards one another from a first, open position, where the solar module is free to move relative to first and second clamping arms to a second, closed position, where the solar module is inhibited from moving relative to the first and second clamping arms.

Abstract: One or more techniques and/or computing devices are provided for snapshot creation. For example, a request may be received to create a snapshot of a first storage object, hosted by a first storage controller, having a synchronous replication relationship with a second storage object hosted by a second storage controller. A coordinator workflow is initialized to issue a drain and hold request to a splitter. Responsive to an indication that the splitter has stopped processing and started queuing incoming write operations and has drained current write operations based upon the drain and hold request, snapshot creation requests are sent to the first storage controller and the second storage controller. Responsive to the first storage controller creating a first snapshot of the first storage object and the second storage controller creating a second snapshot of the second storage object, the splitter may be resumed to process write operations.

Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include matching transportation requests. By collecting and batching match requests over an extended period, a dynamic transportation matching system may identify more efficient matches (e.g., may match transportation requests with greater overlaps). In addition, by dynamically setting and/or extending the upper bound of time that a transportation request may remain batched with other transportation requests, the dynamic transportation matching system may account for contextual information thereby situationally improving matching efficiencies made possible with higher upper bounds while avoiding requestor dissatisfaction, lost conversions, or other inefficiencies that may result from upper bounds that are too high.
