Publication number: 20210397551Abstract: Methods and systems for garbage collection are described. In some embodiments, Garbage collector threads may maximize local accesses and minimize remote access by copying Young objects and Old objects differently. When copying a Young object, a garbage collector thread may determine the lgroup of the pool that contains the object and copy the object to a pool of the same lgroup. The garbage collector thread may spread Old objects among lgroups by copying Old objects to pools of the same lgroup as the respective garbage collector thread. Additional methods and systems are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2021Publication date: December 23, 2021Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Antonios Printezis, Igor Veresov, Paul Henry Hohensee, John Coomes

Patent number: 11179057Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for processing a set of multiple serially acquired magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) free induction decay (FID) frames from a multi-frame MRS acquisition series from a region of interest (ROI) in a subject, and for providing a post-processed MRS spectrum. Processing parameters are dynamically varied while measuring results to determine the optimal post-processed results. Spectral regions opposite water from chemical regions of interest are evaluated and used in at least one processing operation. Frequency shift error is estimated via spectral correlation between free induction decay (FID) frames and a reference spectrum. Multiple groups of FID frames within the acquired set are identified to different phases corresponding with a phase step cycle of the acquisition. Baseline correction is also performed via rank order filter (ROF) estimate and a polynomial fit.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2020Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: NociMed, Inc.Inventors: James Clayton Peacock, III, John Patrick Claude, Paul Henry Kane, Ricardo Dario Pradenas

Publication number: 20210352798Abstract: Provided are interconnect circuits and methods of forming thereof. A method may involve laminating a substrate to a conductive layer followed by patterning the conductive layer. This patterning operation forms individual conductive portions, which may be also referred to as traces or conductive islands. The substrate supports these portions relative to each other during and after patterning. After patterning, an insulator may be laminated to the exposed surface of the patterned conductive layer. At this point, the conductive layer portions are also supported by the insulator, and the substrate may optionally be removed, e.g., together with undesirable portions of the conductive layer. Alternatively, the substrate may be retained as a component of the circuit and the undesirable portions of the patterned conductive layer may be removed separately. These approaches allow using new patterning techniques as well as new materials for substrates and/or insulators.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2021Publication date: November 11, 2021Applicant: CelLink CorporationInventors: Kevin Michael Coakley, Malcolm Parker Brown, Dongao Yang, Michael Lawrence Miller, Paul Henry Lego

Publication number: 20210284721Abstract: The present disclosure provides modified antibodies which contain an antibody or antibody fragment (AB) modified with a masking moiety (MM). Such modified antibodies can be further coupled to a cleavable moiety (CM), resulting in activatable antibodies (AAs), wherein the CM is capable of being cleaved, reduced, photolysed, or otherwise modified. AAs can exhibit an activatable conformation such that the AB is more accessible to a target after, for example, removal of the MM by cleavage, reduction, or photolysis of the CM in the presence of an agent capable of cleaving, reducing, or photolysing the CM. The disclosure further provides methods of making and using such modified antibodies and activatable antibodies.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 22, 2020Publication date: September 16, 2021Inventors: Nancy Elizabeth Stagliano, James William West, Kathryn Kamath, Paul Henry Bessette, Fred Gluck, Jason Gary Sagert, Patrick Daugherty

Publication number: 20210182133Abstract: A risk management system includes a plurality of sensors coupled to a processor and to an electrical device, which may be a utility asset, to monitor operational characteristics of the electrical device. The processor may send sensor data and/or processed information to a memory for storage. The processed information, the sensor data, or both are visually and graphically presented in a radar chart, a table, and a sliding scale interface for both selecting data and interpreting data provided by the processor. The combination of the radar chart, the table, and the sliding scale interface allows a user of any level of training or education to quickly and efficiently interpret the sensor data, the processed information, or both with respect to the electrical device. The radar chart depicts a failure profile that provides a visual summary of determined risk scores corresponding to subcomponents of the electrical device that may need investigation, maintenance, or replacement.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2019Publication date: June 17, 2021Inventors: Paul Henry Stewart DONEGAN, Emilio Morales CRUZ
