Abstract: The present disclosure relates to applying a data deduplication layer on top of an asynchronous remote replication protocol. In embodiments, a remote replication group including one or more of a storage array's logical unit numbers (LUNs) can be established. Further, at a remote system, —the remote replication group can be remotely replicated on a per LUN basis using a deduplication fingerprint of each LUN's data tracks corresponding to the remote replication group.

Abstract: Aerial vehicles are assigned to routes within a transportation network based on a state of charge, state of power, and/or state of health for the aerial vehicle. Such aspects can be modeled based on one or more statistical models and/or machine-learned models, among other examples. As another example, an energy budget is used to ensure that the state of charge, state of power, and/or state of health of the aerial vehicle during and/or after traveling the route remains within the energy budget. A payload is assigned to a route and an associated aerial vehicle, thereby generating an itinerary. In examples, the itinerary is validated by the aerial vehicle to ensure that the aerial vehicle is capable of traveling the route with the payload. In examples where the aerial vehicle rejects the itinerary, the itinerary is assigned to another aerial vehicle and a new itinerary is identified for the aerial vehicle.

Abstract: Described herein are sensitive methods for determining if a subject has cancer. The methods generally involve quantifying the amount of one or more biomarkers derived from Galectin-3 in a biological sample from the subject by mass spectrometry, wherein an increase in the amount of one or more biomarkers in the biological sample as compared to a control is an indication of the presence of cancer in the subject.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for reducing a bit-depth requirement for an A/D converter in a GPS receiver having an antenna for receiving an analog input signal and a low noise amplifier for amplifying the input signal, comprising a filter for filtering about a bandwidth B the amplified signal; a down-conversion module centering the frequency of the filtered signal about a center frequency f0; an automatic gain controller (AGC) for setting a set point of the input signal; an adder for adding noise to the gain controlled signal, said noise based upon the bandwidth B and center frequency f0; and an analog to digital (A/D) converter for converting the added noise signal to a digital signal, wherein the noise added to the gain controlled signal reduces the bit depth requirement of the A/D converter.
