Abstract: A scan chain collects scan chain data from testing of a functional circuit and outputs a scan chain signal containing the scan chain data. A voltage monitor circuit operates to compare a supply voltage against a threshold and assert a reset signal when the supply voltage crosses the threshold. The reset signal resets a flip flop circuit whose output signal controls operation of a logic circuit that blocks passage of the scan chain signal to an integrated circuit probe pad and instead applies a constant logic signal to the probe pad indicating a voltage monitoring error.

Abstract: The disclosure generally describes computer-implemented methods, software, and systems, including a method for generating executable components. One method includes identifying a user request to create a new function based pre-existing algorithms, the new function to be used in an application used by a user; providing a set of available algorithms from an algorithm library; receiving a selection by a user of an algorithm from the available algorithms; providing a set of available parameters associated with the selected algorithm; receiving an election by the user of one or more parameters from the set of available parameters; generating an executable component in response to receiving the selection of the algorithm and the election of the one or more parameters, the executable component performing the selected algorithm using at least the elected one or more parameters; and storing the executable component for subsequent execution in response to the requested new function.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a lyophilized composition comprising killed cancer cells with substantially retained immunogenicity and morphology, an intracellular cryopreservative such as trehalose and an extracellular cryopreservative such as polyvinylpyrrolidone. The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of said lyophilized composition. The lyophilized composition of the present invention can be used for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract: This invention discloses the process for lyophilization of the treated cells which comprises the use of a solution containing Trehalose along with amphipathic polymer Polyvinylpyrrolidone. Further the invention discloses the process treating cancer cells, freezing, lyophilizing and reconstituting. Immunomodulator treated dead, but intact cancerous cells were recovered, which can subsequently be used for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract: A hot runner injection molding apparatus includes a hot runner nozzle and a first heater coupled to the nozzle body of the nozzle. A separate mold gate insert surrounds a nozzle tip area of the nozzle. The mold gate insert is heated by a second heater that is separate and independent from the nozzle body heater. The temperature generated by the first and second heaters is measured by a first thermocouple and a second thermocouple, respectively. A controller is used to adjust at any time the temperature of the first and second heaters independently. The second heater is used to either i) melt, and thus enable a faster removal of, a colder molten material accumulated around the nozzle tip during a color change procedure or ii) to reduce or increase the temperature of the nozzle tip differently from one nozzle to the next.

Abstract: A system that monitors and assesses the moods of subjects with neurological disorders, like bipolar disorder, by analyzing normal conversational speech to identify speech data that is then analyzed through an automated speech data classifier. The classifier may be based on a vector, separator, hyperplane, decision boundary, or other set of rules to classify one or more mood states of a subject. The system classifier is used to assess current mood state, predicted instability, and/or a change in future mood state, in particular for subjects with bipolar disorder.

Abstract: A rowing apparatus having: a frame; a seat slidably mounted on the frame; an outrigger for receiving oars; at least one drive mechanism coupled to the outrigger to translate a force applied to the oars to a flywheel having a magnetic break for providing variable resistance; the rowing apparatus having a one way clutch for unidirectional rotary drive of the flywheel, and allowing for operation in a sweeping mode or a sculling mode; and whereby the opposing motions of the oars are combined into a single motion to drive the flywheel.

Abstract: Magnetic actuator for actuating at least one valve pin of a hot runner system having a moveable actuation plate, first and second permanent magnets, first and second electromagnets which are fastened opposite to the permanent magnets. The magnetic actuator further comprises first and second insulators mounted to the external sides of the electromagnets for preventing magnetic interference with the hot runner system and for reducing heat transfer from the hot runner system to the magnetic actuator.

Abstract: A method and system may provide automated messages to a patient to increase the likelihood that the patient adheres to a medication regimen. A reinforcement learning engine determines the patient's barriers to adherence and transmits messages generated to address those barriers. The reinforcement learning engine constantly receives feedback from the patient and adjusts the messages that are transmitted to the patient, for example, when the patient's barrier to adherence changes, when the patient incorrectly identifies his barrier to adherence, and/or when the patient becomes desensitized to receiving the same message over and over again.

Abstract: A system and method for testing an integrated circuit using methodologies to reduce voltage drop during ATPG and LBIST testing. In one embodiment, delay elements may be added to a clock circuit used to generate the various clock signals that trigger the switching of the various electronic components. In another embodiment, logic circuitry may be added to a clock generation circuit to isolate clock domains in order to enable a clock signal in each clock domain in a specific pattern. In yet another embodiment, capture phases for LBIST testing may be made to be asynchrounous within each capture phase, such that data capture for one LBIST partition may be timed different from other capture phases for other LBIST partitions. Finally, a further embodiment ATPG circuitry may also be partitioned such that logic circuitry only enables one (or less than all) ATPG partition at a time.

Abstract: The present invention is for compositions and methods for managing the body weight of a subject using said compositions. Weight management, particularly weight gain and loss, is effectuated by producing a sensation of satiety in said subjects. The method of managing body weight includes administering the composition prior to food consumption, concurrent with food consumption, as replacement for food consumption and combinations thereof.
