Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for induced differentiation of an extended pluripotent stem cell (EPSC) into a cardiomyocyte and use thereof, and belongs to the technical field of biomedicine. A reagent used for the induced differentiation is a culture medium having definite chemical components, which can obtain cardiomyocytes having high purity and stable between-batch differentiation efficiency. Compared with cardiomyocytes differentiated from existing pluripotent stem cells, the cardiomyocyte obtained has strong early proliferation ability, and more cell number can be obtained; after extended culture and construction into engineering heart microtissue, maturity is higher, the structure is more regularly arranged, and functional contractility is enhanced. Therefore, the present disclosure is a suitable for mechanism research of heart diseases, drug screening, and cell therapy, and thus has excellent practical application value.

Abstract: A method of discontinuous transmission data communication in a digital subscriber line (DSL) transceiver unit, the method comprising determining that a number of a plurality of bits available to transmit is enough to fill a data transfer unit (DTU), forming a DTU, by a DTU framer, comprising the plurality of bits, transferring the DTU to a retransmission queue, and determining the DTUs from the retransmission queue to be transmitted over a next time period used for transmitting over the DSL subscriber line by the DSL transceiver unit.

Abstract: A method implemented in a multicarrier transmission system, the method comprising generating a plurality of constellation points by using one or more constellation mappers to map a plurality of special data sequences for an idle data transmission unit (IDTU), wherein the plurality of special data sequences are computed prior to the mapping such that the plurality of constellation points are essentially inner constellation points, wherein each of the inner constellation points resides in a constellation diagram that corresponds to one of a plurality of subcarriers used by the IDTU, and wherein the constellation diagram comprises a number of inner constellation points and a number of outer constellation points, with the inner constellation points being closer from an origin of the constellation diagram than the outer constellation points, and transmitting the plurality of constellation points.

Abstract: An apparatus used for digital subscriber line (DSL) communication comprising a processor configured to generate a data transmission unit (DTU) comprising user data and a transmitter configured to repeatedly transmit the DTU a plurality of times onto a subscriber line, wherein a number of the plurality of times is adaptively based on a user data rate of the subscriber line. A method of data communication comprising generating a DTU comprising user data and repeatedly transmitting the DTU a plurality of times onto a subscriber line, wherein a number of the plurality of times is adaptively based on a data rate of the subscriber line.

Abstract: A consumer electronic device, such as a digital video recorder (DVR), has a media storage storing program code modules and content and a network interface for interfacing with one or more remote servers. Content is stored in a content area, modules for monitoring and controlling the consumer electronic device are stored in a system area, and recovery modules are stored in an error recovery area. The monitoring modules activate the recovery modules in response to the detection of an error. The recovery modules diagnose the error and attempt one or more solutions. One solution attempted by the recovery modules is to activate a network recovery module that downloads and installs new program modules for controlling the consumer electronic device from a remote server.
