In this way, different sets of tiles of the same processing unit each sync with different sets of tiles external to that processing unit.

Abstract: Drainage devices have a self-clearing capability for reducing obstructions and a controllable flow restriction capability for controlling drainage flow, and microactuators for providing such capabilities. Such a microactuator includes a frame and an appendage anchored to the frame such that the frame supports the appendage, the frame at least partially surrounds the appendage, and the appendage is disposed in an opening or window defined by the frame. The appendage includes a platform and at least one beam that anchors the platform to the frame to enable the appendage to deflect out of a plane defined by the frame. The platform may include a ferromagnetic material that enables the appendage to deflect in response to an applied magnetic field.

Abstract: A method for producing an aromatic dianhydride includes reacting an aromatic diimide with a substituted or unsubstituted phthalic anhydride in an aqueous medium in the presence of an amine exchange catalyst to provide an aqueous reaction mixture including an N-substituted phthalimide, an aromatic tetraacid salt, and at least one of an aromatic triacid salt and an aromatic imide diacid salt. The method further includes removing the phthalimide from the aqueous reaction mixture by extracting the aqueous reaction mixture with an organic solvent using a single packed extraction column. The aromatic tetraacid salt is converted to the corresponding aromatic dianhydride. Aromatic dianhydrides prepared according to the method are also described.

Abstract: Briefly, embodiments, such as methods and/or systems for employing external memory devices in the execution of activation function such as activation functions implemented in a neural network. In one aspect, a first activation input tensor may be partitioned as a plurality of tensor segments stored in one or more external memory devices. Individual stored tensor segments may be sequentially loaded to memories local to processing circuitry to apply activation functions associated with the stored tensor segments.

Abstract: A system for and method of generating an API or an API template for use with a map service. The API, e.g., URL when invoked in a WMS server or WMTS server, causes generating a metadata for a set of one or more areas of interest (AOIs) and one or more date ranges. The metadata provides access to a dataset of surveys via getmap or gettile requests. The API is dynamic in that the effect of the API (the metadata generated) is automatically updated whenever there has been a new survey added in the set of AOIs and date ranges. The API template is for a TMS service, and when populated, provides for causing any tiled map in the set of AOIs and date ranges to be displayed.
