Abstract: A vehicle system has a first communication processor connected to a vehicle network, a second communication processor connected to the first communication processor, and a vehicle processor configured to communicate with the first and second communication processors. The vehicle processor is programmed to, in response to received vehicle data via the vehicle network, communicate the vehicle data to a server via the first communication processor. The vehicle processor is further programmed to, in response to received infotainment data via the second communication processor, output the infotainment data to a display.

Abstract: A device can parse a query to determine a first road identified by the query and a second road identified by the query. The device can determine a plurality of road segment pairs that include a first road segment of a first plurality of road segments associated with the first road and a second road segment associated with second plurality of road segments associated with the second road. The device can determine a plurality of candidate intersection points based on the plurality of road segment pairs. The device can determine an intersection of the first road and the second road based on the plurality of candidate intersection points and can provide, to a client device, information identifying the intersection of the first road and the second road.

Abstract: A cap for retaining a wheel trim with a wheel includes a body portion which slides inside a central opening defined by a hub portion of the wheel trim. The body portion has a first end and a second end. The cap includes at least one engagement portion coupled to the body portion. The at least one engagement portion engages with an internal wall of the hub portion. The cap includes at least one retaining tab coupled to the body portion towards the second end of the body portion. The at least one retaining tab extends radially outwards from the second end of the body portion. The cap further includes a holding portion coupled to the body portion towards the first end. The holding portion extends radially outwards from the body portion such that the holding portion abuts a disc portion of the wheel trim.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for identifying precursor ions originating from an ion source device. A mass filter filters an ion beam by using a series of overlapping precursor ion mass selection windows across the precursor ion mass range. A mass analyzer analyzes the precursor ions of each precursor ion mass selection window of the series, producing a plurality of precursor ion spectra for the precursor ion mass range. A precursor ion is selected from the spectra. The intensities for the selected precursor ion are retrieved from the spectra and a trace is produced that describes how the intensity of the selected precursor ion varies with the location of the precursor ion mass selection window. The selected precursor ion is identified as a precursor ion originating from the ion source device if the trace includes a nonzero intensity for the m/z value of the selected precursor ion.

Abstract: A document editor may manage suggested edits in a collaborative document. The document editor may instantiate a document model associated with the collaborative document. When a first editing suggestion is received for the collaborative document, a first suggestion command is associated with the first editing suggestion based on a type of the first editing suggestion and a type of the document model. The document editor may apply the first suggestion command on the document model to present the first editing suggestion within the collaborative document. When an acceptance indication for the first editing suggestion is received, the document model can be updated with the first suggestion command in response to the received acceptance indication.
