Abstract: A pouch for a portable electronic device includes an adjustable receptacle for receiving the portable electronic device. The adjustable receptacle includes a plurality of flaps. The plurality of flaps includes, one or more side flaps, a main flap, and a retention flap. The main flap comprises a first segment and a second segment and the second segment is pivotably attached to the first segment. Moving the adjustable flaps relative to each other changes a size of the adjustable receptacle.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a guest operating system (OS) running on a virtual machine (VM) detects a VM migration, where the embodiment comprises storing, by the guest OS, a VM identifier (VMID) provided by the VM and a first host identifier (HID) provided by a host computer system in a computer memory. The embodiment also comprises determining, by the guest OS, that the VM performs migrations that are transparent to the guest OS. The embodiment further comprises detecting, by the guest OS, that the VM has been migrated based on a comparison of the first HID to a second HID provided to the guest OS in response to an HID request from the guest OS.

Abstract: For a process of an operating system, it is detected that a live migration has occurred, the live migration comprising a change in a hardware characteristic of a computer system on which the process executes. A first message is broadcast to a set of processors, the first message causing each processor in the set of processors to enter a waiting state. While each of the set of processors is in the waiting state, a portion of a set of program instructions of the operating system is modified.

Abstract: A system for use in fabrication of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) includes a wafer having a circuitry and a plurality of CNT seed sites. The system also includes a base assembly configured to support the wafer. The system further includes a first tube disposed over the wafer and configured to surround the CNTs that form on the seed sites. The circuitry in the wafer is configured to conduct at least one static charge. The wafer includes a top surface having a plurality of CNT seed sites, each seed site coupled to the circuitry and configured to receive one of the at least one static charge.

Abstract: Thermally actuated pressure relief is provided for lightweight filament or fiber wound pressure vessels. A pressure release device is provided for a filament or fiber wound pressure vessel which device contains an alloy insert which will soften and release the pressure in the vessel upon the device being subjected to a predetermined temperature range. The temperature range must be below the degradation temperatures of the pressure vessel and above the normal ambient use and storage temperatures of the vessel. The alloy in the pressure release device must be capable of taking the shear stress of the cyclical pressurization and depressurization of the vessel without failure, which shear stress would be both the mechanical shear between the alloy and the walls of the hole in the device, i.e.
