Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automating a content release comprising the steps of: determining a content release plan associated with a content release, wherein the content release plan includes a plurality of line items, wherein each line item identifies a content item to be released; parsing the plurality of line items included in the content release plan to build a deployment graph, wherein the deployment graph identifies a plurality of deployment tasks to be executed to complete the content release; executing the content release plan by performing the plurality of deployment tasks according to a schedule identified in the content release plan; and updating the content release plan based on one or more real-time statuses of the plurality of deployment tasks.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods for growing cells in a controlled environment in a growing room, transporting the cells to a harvest room, and removing the cells from the controlled environment in the harvest room. The disclosed method can limit exposure of cells to contaminants by maintaining a controlled environment through cell growth and additional processing. For instance, the cells may be washed and cooled within the controlled environment. The cells are transferred to a harvest room where they are harvested and removed from the controlled environment.

Abstract: A three-dimensional print head apparatus may include a securing mechanism, a hopper, a nozzle, a heating system, and a fume extraction system. The securing mechanism may be adapted to secure to a wrist joint of a robotic arm. The hopper may have a cavity and a lower aperture and may be secured to the securing mechanism. The nozzle may have an upper aperture and a lower aperture. The heating system may be positioned along the barrel.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for increasing uplink beamforming gain. In one aspect there is provided a method of identifying user equipment which makes use of the proposed new beam-sweeping random access channel procedure that enables the base station to identify the best uplink transmit beam rather than the first beam that the base station managed to detect. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.

Abstract: A generator module for a vehicle includes a housing with a first conical surface, a rotor assembly with a second conical surface, aligned with the first conical surface, and a spring arranged to push the second conical surface into contact with the first conical surface. In an example embodiment, the first conical surface or the second conical surface includes a plastic surface or a friction paper surface. In an example embodiment, the rotor assembly is axially displaceable within the housing to compress the spring and move the second conical surface away from the first conical surface.

Abstract: Systems and methods for configuring a dialogue guidance graph that governs a set of operations of an automated dialogue system and that includes encoding a recall operation to a target graphical node of the graph, wherein the recall operation causes: an accessing of a temporary data storage storing a log of data of an active dialogue session between a user and the automated dialogue system, an assessment of a terminality attribute associated with the target graphical node, a determination of whether the terminality attribute is disabled or enabled, wherein if the terminality attribute is disabled, the recall operation, causes the automated dialogue system to revert the active dialogue session to the target graphical node to perform one or more dialogue-based operations between the user and the automated dialogue system that converts the terminality attribute of the target graphical node from the disabled state to the enabled state.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments described herein relate to systems and/or methods for presenting user-interactive, dynamically-generated contextual content for individual articles of clothing. A QR or other code is provided to the article of clothing. The QR or other code is scannable by an electronic device, causing the electronic device to access a webpage or the like. The webpage (or similar information display) includes information typically found on a tag or label, together with additional dynamically-generated and organized content relevant to the article and/or person for whom the article was made. The techniques described herein are usable in connection with mass-produced, small batch/boutique items, as well as custom articles of clothing. Thus, it becomes possible to quickly and easily convey a broad scope of information about an article of clothing directly from that article of clothing, without having to include large and potentially irritating tags or labels.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for controlling a digital display and surveillance system including display devices and at least one camera. Responsive to a determination that a person of interest has entered a location, one or more attributes of the person is/are recognized. A customized display is developed by an inference engine. The customized display provides an immersive experience with a level of customization detail based on the identified attribute(s) of the person. The display devices output the customized display. Surveillance information is provided to the inference engine based on surveillance of the person as the person moves about (and/or interacts with items) in the location. The surveillance uses data identifying a current area in the location that the person presently is in. Updates to the customized display are developed responsive to surveillance information being successively provided to the inference engine. The display devices are controlled to output the update.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to methods for attachment of a retention member to an insulating glazing unit, resulting structures, and systems for the accomplishing the same. In some embodiments, a method of attaching a retention member to an insulating glazing unit can include placing a spacer unit between a first pane of glass and a second pane of glass to form the insulating glazing unit and applying an adhesive composition to at least one of a perimeter of the insulating glazing unit and the retention member. The method can further include mounting the retention member onto perimeter edges of at least one of the first pane and the second pane. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a system and method for retaining an insulated glass subassembly including a laminated layer of glass within a frame of a fenestration unit providing protection against wind borne debris. A fenestration unit can include a frame member defining a channel with a lower end and an attachment surface thereon along with a glass subassembly including a proximal end received and seated within the channel and an outside facing surface of the exterior pane proximate the lower end of the channel. A retention member can engage the interior laminate pane, and a glazing material can be on the attachment surface at the lower end of the channel. The outside facing surface of the glass subassembly can be attached to the channel of the frame member with the glazing material. In various embodiments, methods of making a retention member are included herein. Other embodiments are also included herein.
