Abstract: The therapeutic or healthful aspect of nutritional supplements, dietary supplements, and drugs has been significantly improved synergistically through infusion of paraprobiotics (inactivated or attenuated or killed probiotics) along with their immunomodulins or postbiotics, especially those of genus Lactobacillus, Bacillus, Lactococcus, Pediococcus, Propionibacterium, Enterococcus, Streptococcus, Penicillium, and Brevibacterium. The objection of using live probiotic bacteria as adjuvants in combination with the nutraceuticals, dietary supplements and drugs by the medical practitioners has been obviated through use of paraprobiotics along with their postbiotics to improve health or treat a specific disease.

Abstract: Fabricating a semiconductor substrate by (a) vertical etching a feature having sidewalls and a depth into one or more layers formed on the semiconductor substrate and (b) depositing an amorphous carbon liner onto the sidewalls of the feature. Steps (a) and optionally (b) are iterated until the vertical etch feature has reached a desired depth. With each iteration of (a), the feature is vertical etched deeper into the one or more layers, while the amorphous carbon liner resists lateral etching of the sidewalls of the feature. With each optional iteration of (b), the deposited amorphous carbon liner on the sidewalls of the feature is replenished.

Abstract: Certain embodiments disclosed herein provide application-specific launch optimization. Aspects of the present disclosure include one or more cost functions for each application, where each cost function corresponds to a likelihood that a particular application should be placed into a particular pre-activation state. For each of the inactive applications, a respective one of the pre-activation states is selected based on comparing cost values obtained by evaluating the cost functions. Each of the inactive applications can be moved to or maintained in the respectively-selected pre-activation state to more efficiently provide an expedited application launch experience for a user.
