  • Patent number: 11695678
    Abstract: A device receives network information from an analyzer device associated with a host device, a target device, and a link of a network, and compares the network information and historical equalizer calibration information to identify a set of equalizer calibration information. The historical equalizer calibration information is associated with multiple host devices, multiple target devices, and multiple links. The device ranks the set of equalizer calibration information, based on quality information associated with the historical equalizer calibration information, to generate a ranked set of equalizer calibration information. The device provides the ranked set of equalizer calibration information to the analyzer device to permit the analyzer device to identify selected equalizer calibration information of the ranked set of equalizer calibration information, and utilize the selected equalizer calibration information.

  • Patent number: 11435847
    Abstract: An exemplary credential reader includes a touch-sensitive region and is configured to generate tap information and/or swipe information in response to the touch-sensitive region being tapped and/or swiped. In certain forms, the touch-sensitive region is a non-displaying track pad. In other forms, the touch-sensitive region is a touch-sensitive display. A lockset including the credential reader further includes a controller configured to generate credential information based upon information received from the credential reader. The controller may compare the credential information to an authorized credential and transmit a grant/deny signal based upon the comparing.

  • Publication number: 20140065679
    Abstract: The present application relates to a mutated Amycoiatopsis sp. TS-1-60 NAAAR that shows improved activity of the enzyme compared with the wild type Amycoiatopsis sp. TS-1-60 NAAAR. The mutated NAAAR is almost five times more active than its wild type counterpart. The present application also relates to the use of mutated Amycoiatopsis sp. TS-1-60 NAAAR in the production of enantiomerically pure amino acid from its N-acyl derivative via dynamic kinetic resolution method.

  • Publication number: 20110122222
    Abstract: An exemplary electronic device comprises a display subsystem that is adapted to display an image and at least one additional subsystem. The exemplary electronic device additionally comprises a low power control logic that is adapted to place the electronic device in either a low power operating mode in which power is removed from the display subsystem and the at least one additional subsystem or an active-display standby mode in which the display subsystem remains powered and power is removed from the at least one additional subsystem.
