    Abstract: The present invention encompasses PRLR binding proteins. Specifically, the invention relates to antibodies that are chimeric, CDR grafted and humanized antibodies. Preferred antibodies have high affinity for hPRLR and neutralize hPRLR activity in vitro and in vivo. An antibody of the invention can be a full-length antibody or an antigen-binding portion thereof. Methods of making and methods of using the antibodies of the invention are also provided. The antibodies, or antibody portions, of the invention are useful for detecting hPRLR and for inhibiting hPRLR activity, e.g., in a human subject suffering from a disorder in which hPRLR activity is detrimental.

    Abstract: An apparatus of adding high vapor pressure magnesium to a steel liquid, includes a magnesium additive device and a tube furnace. The magnesium additive device includes a storage barrel, a conveying pipe, a control valve, and an insertion tube. A method of adding high vapor pressure magnesium to a steel liquid, includes placing the magnesium additive device in the tube furnace, and delivering pure magnesium particles into the storage barrel. When the temperature at the mediate lower position of the conveying pipe is increased to reach a preset value, the control valve is opened to pour the pure magnesium particles into the conveying pipe to form a magnesium vapor, and an argon regulating valve is opened to introduce the argon into the conveying pipe so as to add the magnesium vapor to a steel liquid by carrying of the argon.

  • Patent number: 9537786
    Abstract: The present application discloses methods, devices, and systems for information processing based on distributed buses. A server may receive processing request packets from one or more client terminals and enter the processing request packets into a single input information queue. After determining a number of idle information processing threads, the server may use the idle information processing threads to process the selected processing request packets to obtain response data packets. Each information processing thread is configured to use a respective output information queue to store response data packets generated by the information processing thread. The server may then transmit the response data packets within a respective output information queue to a corresponding client terminal. The current method, as well as the devices and systems associated with the method, may be used to facilitate information processing, improve efficiency, and prevent excessive burden and data loss.

  • Publication number: 20160359612
    Abstract: A method and apparatus of clock recovery is disclosed. A communications device matches the frequency of a local clock signal with the frequency of a transmit clock signal of a transmitting device based on a first set of signals received from the transmitting device during a low-speed information exchange. The low-speed information exchange may correspond to an autonegotiation operation, wherein each of the transmitting device and the communications device declares its communication capabilities to the other device. The communications device then determines a frequency offset to be applied to the local clock signal during a high-speed data communication with the transmitting device. During the high-speed communication, the communications device may apply the frequency offset to the local clock signal and match the phase of the receive clock signal with the phase of the transmit clock signal based on a second set of signals received from the transmitting device.

  • Publication number: 20160359638
    Abstract: An Ethernet device is disclosed that may reduce transient currents and/or power consumption while entering and exiting a low power mode by selectively powering-on and/or powering-off a number of transceiver components at different times (e.g., in a staggered manner). The transient currents and/or power consumption may be further reduced by assigning different quiet period durations to different transceiver chains, for example, to minimize the number of transceiver components that enter and/or exit the low power mode at the same time.

  • Publication number: 20160277220
    Abstract: A method for operating a receiver is disclosed. The receiver may receive, over a channel from a transmitter, a first data bit at a first period of time. The receiver may receive, over the channel, a second data bit at a second period of time subsequent to the first period of time. The first and second data bits each have either a first logical value corresponding to a voltage greater than zero volts or a second logical value corresponding to a voltage less than or equal to zero volts. The receiver performs a coefficient adaptation operation, using the first data bit, to adjust one or more coefficients of a decision feedback equalizer of the receiver only when the logical value of the first data bit is equal to the logical value of the second data bit.
