Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of Eribulin.

Abstract: A control system is disclosed for an item processing system with a programmable motion device, said control system including a parameter estimator for estimating item handling parameters for items for which at least some parameters are known, a parameter explorer for identifying item handling parameters of items for which no parameters are known, and a parameter governor for determining whether to employ the parameter estimator or the parameter explorer in adjusting parameters for the item processing system.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus for predicting a channel quality indicator in a communication system, and in particular a delayed receiver. A disclosed method for determining the predictive channel quality indicator for a delayed receiver includes determining at least one channel quality indicator from a non-delayed receiver. The method also includes determining another channel quality indicator from the delayed receiver, and then calculating the predictive channel quality indicator for the delayed receiver through a function of the channel quality indicators from the non-delayed receiver and the channel quality indicator from the delayed receiver. Corresponding apparatus are also disclosed.

Abstract: In general, this disclosure describes techniques for demodulating wireless signals. In particular, the techniques of this disclosure dynamically select between two or more demodulators based on channel quality information measured over a plurality of measurement periods. For example, a wireless communication device (WCD) may switch from a first demodulator to a second demodulator when the channel quality information associated with the demodulators indicates a better channel quality for the second demodulator than the first demodulator for a consecutive number of measurement periods. As another example, the WCD may compute, for each measurement period, the difference between the channel quality information associated with each of the demodulators, sum the differences, and switch demodulators when the total accumulation of the differences exceeds a threshold.
