Abstract: A merchant listing verification system to scan a publisher system of a set of publisher systems to identify a published merchant listing published by the publisher system, where the published merchant listing includes a first set of data fields and a first set of data field values associated with a merchant system. The merchant listing verification system compares, on a field-by-field basis, the published merchant system to a target merchant listing comprising a second set of data fields and a second set of data field values associated with the merchant system. Based on the comparing, a discrepancy between a first data value of a first data field of the first set of data fields of the published merchant listing and a second data value of a second data field of the second set of data fields of the target merchant listing is identified.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing an optical transmitter includes assembling a laser device on a module including a temperature sensor and a temperature controller. An optimum operating temperature of the laser to minimize optical distortion is determined at a temperature within a range between which distortions were determined at multiple temperatures. The temperature controller is selectively adjusted so as to operate the laser at the optimum temperature. The distortion may also be monitored during active laser operation. The temperature controller may be selectively adjusted, based on the monitoring of the distortion, so as to operate the laser at a new controlled temperature nearer that which produces the temperature-dependent distortion minimum.

Abstract: A bag structure includes a bag body including side walls having inner and outer surfaces, and the bag body further includes a top end and a bottom end. A closure member is coupled to the top end for opening and closing the bag body, and an adhesive member is secured to the bag body. The adhesive member includes a reinforced section and an adhesive section. The adhesive member is configured to retain the top end of the bag body in a folded over relationship until the adhesive member is severed along the reinforced section.
