Abstract: A digital signal processing apparatus includes a digital circuit device having one or more elements configured to process digital data; a power supply configured to deliver a controllable operating voltage for the one or more elements; control logic configured to receive feedback signals from each of the one or more elements, the feedback signals indicative of a rate at which data is moving through each individual element; and the control logic configured to output a control signal to the power supply so as to cause the power supply to reduce the operating voltage for the one or more elements responsive to a decreasing workload detected therein, and to cause the power supply to increase the operating voltage for the one or more pipelines responsive to an increasing workload detected therein.

Abstract: A head and neck support device includes first and second head support members that may be positioned in complimentary opposing locations to a rear area of the head. Each head support member comprises a substantially rectangular shaped pillow that may be affixed to headwear (e.g., hat) or a headband. The first and second head support members are configured to complimentarily support and distribute a weight of the head to substantially bypass a neck or the wearer and effectuate translation of the forces of gravity (somewhat equally) to the sides of the head of the wearer.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an iso-dielectric separation apparatus for separating particles based upon their electrical properties, and methods of using the apparatus.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a structural member comprising three elongated planar rectangular sheets, each sheet having a long edge and short edge, and joined by its long edge to two other sheets. The sheets thus form an elongated triangular columnar member. Each sheet has a series of semi-ellipsoid indentations extending into the triangular columnar member. The resultant structural member has rigidity in a direction perpendicular to its long axis, but has torsional flexibility around its axis. The member may also include stabilizing rods with extending axially through the member and may be filled with a stiffening agent, including polymeric resin or cement.
