Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to method and system for predicting distance of gazed objects using IR camera. Eye tracking technology is widely used to study human behavior and patterns in eye movements. Existing gaze trackers focus on predicting gaze point and hardly analyzes distance of the gazed object from the gazer or directly classify region of focus. The method of the present disclosure predicts gazed objects distance using a pair of IR cameras placed on either side of a smart glass. The gaze predictor ML model predicts distance at least one gazed object positioned from eye of each subject during systematic execution of a set of tasks. From each pupillary information of each pupil a set of features are extracted which are utilized to classify the gazed object of the subject based on the distance into at least one of a near class, an intermediate class, and a far class.

Abstract: A system and a process for capturing Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from flue gases are disclosed. The process comprises feeding a flue gas comprising CO2 to at least one Rotary Packed Bed (RPB) absorber rotating circularly. A solvent may be provided through an inner radius of the RPB absorber. The solvent may move towards an outer radius of the RPB absorber. The solvent may react with the flue gas in a counter-current flow. The process further includes passing the flue gas through at least one of a water wash and an acid wash to remove traces of the solvent present in the flue gas. Finally, the solvent reacted with the CO2 may be thermally regenerated for re-utilizing the solvent back in the process.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a system for the removal of impurities from a flue gas. In particular, the present invention relates to a method and a system for the removal of impurities such as SO3 (acid mist), SO2 (sulphur dioxide), NO2 (nitrogen dioxide) from a CO2 (carbon dioxide) rich flue gas.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for moving data between partitions. Such a process may be performed without requiring any locks that block transactions that target a partition from being executed. Instead, such transactions may proceed while a move operation is being performed. The move operation involves copying data from the targeted partition to another partition that is hidden from (or “invisible” to) those transactions that attempt to read from or write to the partition. During the move operation, changes that are made to the partition are also reflected in a journal. Eventually, the changes reflected in the journal are drained and applied to the hidden partition. Once the partition and the hidden partition are synchronized, the identities of the partitions are swapped so that future transactions will target the previously-hidden partition instead of the previously-viewable partition.

Abstract: Construct-modification tags conveying development-phase compiler requests are introduced into source code to facilitate communication between developers, identify areas that need developer attention, send directives to a compiler, and other development features in an integrated development environment, during the software development phase. A DEACTIVATE tag conveys a request to a compiler to deactivate an associated construct, as well as to find and deactivate dependencies of the construct. A DEACTIVATE tag may incorporate properties, permissions, and generate notifications, including a condition for evaluation, the deactivation conditionally responsive to the result of the condition evaluation. Methods ensure that tags no longer remain in source code once the software development process enters the production phase.

Abstract: Construct-modified tags conveying development-phase compiler requests are introduced into source code to facilitate communication between developers, identify areas that need developer attention, send directives to a compiler, and other development features in an integrated development environment, during the software development phase. A REQUESTREVIEW tag conveys a request to a compiler to notify a reviewer that source code is ready for review. A REVIEWED tag indicates a review has been performed and may signify code acceptance. Alternatively, a FIX or OPTIMIZE tag may be used to identify further code development requirement. These tags may incorporate properties, permissions, and generate notifications. Methods may facilitate code review and feedback in other aspects. Methods ensure that tags no longer remain in source code once the software development process enters the production phase.

Abstract: A set of construct-modification tags conveying development-phase compiler requests are introduced into source code to facilitate communication between developers, identify areas that need developer attention, send directives to a compiler, and other development features in an integrated development environment, during the software development phase. Tags may incorporate properties, permissions, and generate notifications. Example tags include IGNORE, DEACTIVATE, OPTIMIZE, FIX, ALTERNATE, PROTOTYPE, REQUESTREVIEW, REVIEWED, CANDIDATE, and BESTCANDIDATE. Methods ensure that tags no longer remain in source code once the software development process enters the production phase.

Abstract: Construct-modification tags conveying development-phase compiler requests are introduced into source code to facilitate communication between developers, identify areas that need developer attention, send directives to a compiler, and other development features in an integrated development environment, during the software development phase. A FIX or OPTIMIZE tag identifies a construct to be altered. An ALTERNATE tag identifies an alternate construct to be compiled while ignoring a FIX or OPTIMIZE tagged construct of the same name. The alternate construct may be marked for ignoring once the other tagged construct of the name is fixed or optimized. Each tag may incorporate properties, permissions, and generate notifications. Methods ensure that tags no longer remain in source code once the software development process enters the production phase.

Abstract: Construct-modification tags conveying development-phase compiler requests are introduced into source code to facilitate communication between developers, identify areas that need developer attention, send directives to a compiler, and other development features in an integrated development environment, during the software development phase. A CANDIDATE tag conveys a request to a compiler to identify multiple candidate constructs, compile each set of candidates or sets of multiple candidates into executables, and profile the compiled executables. Results of the profiling can be compared and a best candidate or set of candidates selected based on one or more of various criteria. A CANDIDATE tag may incorporate properties, permissions, and generate notifications. Methods ensure that tags no longer remain in source code once the software development process enters the production phase.

Abstract: Construct-modification tags conveying development-phase compiler requests are introduced into source code to facilitate communication between developers, identify areas that need developer attention, send directives to a compiler, and other development features in an integrated development environment, during the software development phase. A hierarchy of developers and associated permissions is maintained. A tag may be associated with one or more developers as well as one or more permissions. Notifications associated with tags may be issued to one or more developers in response to a conveyed compiler request. General messages to all the developers and personalized messages to one or more developers indicate the presence of tags and need to resolve issues before the software development process enters the production phase.

Abstract: Thus, aspects of the present disclosure allow for a target UE to utilize a cooperative device to communicate with a base station when the target UE is out of coverage or in poor radio connections, but can still connect to another UE over a non-3GPP technology. Aspects of the present disclosure may receive a derived radio resource control (RRC) key from a user equipment (UE) in a non-Third Generation Partnership Project (non-3GPP) link between the apparatus and the UE. In some aspects, the UE is out of coverage of a network entity in a 3GPP link with the apparatus. In another instance, aspects of the present disclosure may receive control data from the network entity in the 3GPP link using the derived RRC key. In yet another instance, aspects of the present disclosure may transmit the control data to the UE in the non-3GPP link.
