Abstract: Provided is a disaggregated memory server, which in some examples is a rack-mounted hardware appliance comprising a pool of memory for allocation to memory clients. Examples of memory clients may include one or more rack-mounted computing devices co-located on a rack with the disaggregated memory server. The disaggregated memory server may be optimized for high-speed dynamic memory allocation to the other computing devices in the rack.

Abstract: In multi-threaded or multi-processor computing systems, a deadlock may occur when two or more processes or threads are unable to proceed because they are each waiting for a resource that the other holds. As a result, progress is halted because conflicting entities are stuck in a circular dependency, and none can release the resources they hold to let the others continue. Systems and methods are provided wherein a resource reservation is carried out in two steps. The first step causes query nodes to add an identifier to a queue and, upon a request and the identifier being in a first position, a non-sharable resource is reserved. As a result, non-sharable resources are reserved in order and when needed, thereby preventing deadlocks.

Abstract: A tissue lumen stent is provided with a body having an elongated tubular configuration and a foreshortened configuration. In the foreshortened configuration, downstream and upstream ends of the body expand radially into downstream and upstream flange structures, leaving a generally cylindrical saddle region therebetween. In some embodiments, the flange structures are non-symmetrical with respect to one another. Systems and methods of using the stents are also disclosed.

Abstract: A thermally stable susceptor assembly used in a deposition reactor provides heat input and controls the temperature of a substrate tape as well as minimizes the build-up of errant deposition material. The susceptor heats a substrate tape within the reactor upon which one or more thin films are deposited, particularly high temperature superconductor (HTS) thin films produced in a MOCVD reactor.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to methods for producing organotin compounds with high purity, which may involve the use of specific additives or reaction conditions. Methods for purifying organotin compounds and suppressing the formation of impurities in organotin compounds are also described.

Abstract: Aryl diimine first row metal compounds are described, as well as their synthesis and use as catalysts for the hydrofunctionalization of unsaturated organic compounds and main group element-main group element bond formation by dehydrogenative coupling.

Abstract: Disclosed are indazole compounds and derivatives thereof for use as modulators of the activity of mitogen-activated protein kinase 4 (MEK4). The disclosed compounds include 3-arylindazoles and 3-amino-indazoles which may be formulated in pharmaceutical composition for treating cell proliferative diseases and disorders associated with MEK4 activity, including cancer.

Abstract: Devices for assisting with the functioning of a tricuspid valve of a heart include a shaft, a flow optimizer, and an anchoring mechanism. A tilting mechanism can be configured to tilt the shaft relative to a central axis of the anchoring mechanism. Leaflets (e.g., multi-layer leaflets) of the flow optimizer can include a membrane and a rim, and the rim can have a higher stiffness than the membrane.

Abstract: An adapter assembly for securing a luminaire to a niche formed in a wall of a pool or spa. The assembly comprises a mounting bracket having a rear portion shaped and sized to fit within the niche and a front portion comprising a peripheral flange sized to engage the wall surrounding the niche. The mounting bracket enables the luminaire to be secured thereto and be visible from a front side thereof. The assembly includes at least one clamping device attached to the rear portion of the mounting bracket and configured to secure the mounting bracket to the niche. In a preferred embodiment, the clamping device comprises a clamping arm and drive member. The clamping arm is pivotally connected to the mounting bracket such that the mounting bracket is drawn into the niche and the peripheral flange of the mounting bracket is drawn towards the wall surrounding the niche.
