Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods for centrally managing distributed edge server resources may create a host folder, associate the host folder with an element manager, add one or more edge servers to the host folder, and manage the one or more edge servers with an edge server management system running in the applicable instance of the element manager. The host folder may be created from either a server manager UI or from an element manager UI. An edge server may be added to a host folder by invoking a UI of the element manager UI. Managing the one or more edge servers may include performing health monitoring of the edge servers as well as version checking and upgrading of the edge servers. An edge server agent may be deployed in the edge server to receive change events published by the edge server and redirect the change events to an element manager system.

Abstract: Please replace the abstract originally filed with the following: A display panel and a display device. Because the pixel distribution density in a second display subarea (A12) is lower than that in a first display subarea (A11), the quantities of sub-pixels (pix) connected to scanning lines are not completely the same; a sub-pixel row having the greatest quantity of sub-pixels (pix) in the display panel is taken as a reference sub-pixel row, the quantity of the sub-pixels (pix) of the reference sub-pixel row is taken as a reference value, a sub-pixel row having the quantity of sub-pixels (pix) smaller than the reference value is taken as a compensation sub-pixel row, and a scanning line connected to the compensation sub-pixel row is taken as a first scanning line; the display panel is provided with load compensation units corresponding to at least part of the first scanning lines, and the load compensation units are located in the second display subarea.

Abstract: An instruction set may comprise one or more instruction statements, which may include keywords that are not definitive and each of which may corresponds to multiple elements on a user interface which is subject to testing. The closer the format of the instruction statements is to a natural spoken language, the more likely ambiguity may occur in instruction statement interpretation. The present application provides systems, methods and computer readable media for ambiguity resolution in instruction statement interpretation. The methods include resolving ambiguity in interpreting an instruction statement of an instruction set based on one or more criteria.

Abstract: A perpendicular magnetic recording disk includes a template layer below a Ru or Ru alloy underlayer, with a granular Co alloy recording layer formed on the underlayer. substrate. The template layer comprises nanoparticles spaced-apart and partially embedded within a polymer material, with the nanoparticles protruding above the surface of the polymer material. A seed layer covers the surface of the polymer material and the protruding nanoparticles and an underlayer of Ru or a Ru alloy covers the seed layer. The protruding nanoparticles serve as the controlled nucleation sites for the Ru or Ru alloy atoms. The nanoparticle-to-nanoparticle distances can be controlled during the formation of the template layer. This enables control of the Co alloy grain diameter distribution as well as grain-to-grain distance distribution.

Abstract: A continuous-media perpendicular magnetic recording disk has a granular recording layer (RL) with controlled grain pitch distribution and controlled long range ordering of the grains. The disk includes a substrate with a template layer for the RL that comprises a blend of at least two different sized nanoparticles. The nanoparticles have a nanoparticle core with attached polymer ligands. The nanoparticle cores protrude above the surface of the template layer to provide a nonplanar surface topology. The blend of two sizes of nanoparticles causes the RL to have low grain pitch distribution and a disruption of long range ordering so that there are no large magnetic rafts. One of the nanoparticles types has a diameter greater than 105% of the diameter of the other nanoparticle type and is present in the total blend of nanoparticles of between about 5% and 35% or between about 55% and 90%.

Abstract: A method for making a perpendicular magnetic recording disk includes forming a template layer below a Ru or Ru alloy underlayer, with a granular Co alloy recording layer formed on the underlayer. The template layer is formed by depositing a solution of a polymer with a functional end group and nanoparticles, allowing the solution to dry, annealing the polymer layer to thereby form a polymer layer with embedded spaced-apart nanoparticles, and then etching the polymer layer to a depth sufficient to partially expose the nanoparticles so they protrude above the surface of the polymer layer. The protruding nanoparticles serve as controlled nucleation sites for the Ru or Ru alloy atoms. The nanoparticle-to-nanoparticle distances can be controlled during the formation of the template layer. This enables control of the Co alloy grain diameter distribution as well as grain-to-grain distance distribution.

Abstract: The cutter assembly contains an axle having a number of parallel, equally spaced troughs along the axial direction, and a number of circular blade discs, each having a center hole threaded through by the axle. Each blade disc has a number of teeth along the circumference of the center hole corresponding and matching to the troughs of the axle. The blade disc has fewer blades than the teeth and the blade discs therefore can be mounted on the axle in different orientations so that their blades are spirally arranged. The axle of the cutter assembly has a fixed end and the blade discs can be sequentially installed to or removed from the other free end. The bearing at the free end has a smaller diameter so that the blade discs can be removed or installed directly passing through the bearing without removing it first.

Abstract: A computer implemented system, two-step method and computer program product which improves the operations of multi-feature extraction and which efficiently develops classification rules from a large training database. Specifically, given a large training set of data tuples, the first phase, called the feature identification phase, identifies features, which have good power in separating data tuples, based on a subset of the training set. A feature that has a good power in correlating data tuples into groups is said to have a good discriminating power. Since the feature identification phase is performed on a subset of the training set, processing costs are minimized. Limiting this phase to the identification of features having good discriminating power ensures that the use of a subset of the training set does not adversely affect the validity of the conclusions drawn therefrom.
