  • Patent number: 11935365
    Abstract: Techniques for creating and managing wagers on possible states within a live event, such as possible outcomes of subparts of a sporting event or other possible occurrences within the event. An initial state and multiple possible future states of a performance parameter of the event are determined based on state information of the event. A betting market may be created by determining probabilities and odds for the possible future states. Bets may be made on the possible future states via a touch-sensitive display. A payout may be made to a winner who selects a possible future state that actually occurs.

  • Patent number: 11830816
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for reduced resistivity for access lines in a memory array are described. A first metal layer may be formed above a via that is configured to couple an access line of a memory array with a corresponding driver. The first metal layer may be oxidized, and then a second metal layer may be formed above the oxidized first metal layer. One or more access lines of the memory device may be formed from the second metal layer, the oxidized first metal layer, or both.

  • Patent number: 11803577
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for indexing related documents to provide more robust search functionality within an index. In one aspect, a first document, such as a comment or status update associated with a second document or ticket item, may be obtained. As a result of the first document including first data that is linked to second data of the second document, an instance of the second document may be modified to include at least a portion of the first data. An index, which indexes a corpus of documents, such as ticket items, may be updated to include the modified second document, such that the first data is associated with the modified second document in the index. Responsive to a query for the first data in the index, the modified second document and any included first data may be returned.

  • Patent number: 11778837
    Abstract: A memory system may include separate amounts or types of resistive material that may be deposited over memory cells and conductive vias using separate resistive layers in the access lines. A first resistive material layer may be deposited over the memory cells prior to performing an array termination etch used to deposit the conductive via. The array termination etch may remove the first resistive material over the portion of the array used to deposit the conductive via. A second resistive material layer may be deposited after the etch has occurred and the conductive via has been formed. The second resistive material layer may be deposited over the conductive via.

  • Publication number: 20230140573
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a satellite or systems, which may include a satellite. The satellite, in some embodiments, may correspond to a software-defined satellite. The satellite may provide a platform-as-a-service, resources of which can be made available to one or multiple different tenants on a per-use basis. Each tenant may be able to securely access different resources of the satellite.

  • Patent number: 10750347
    Abstract: A method providing vehicle incident call services to a user is disclosed. A third-party service center receives a communication from a vehicle over at least one data channel. Signaling is automatically sent to the vehicle from the third-party service center and, in response to the signaling, die third-party service center receives from the vehicle, location information comprising at least the latitude and longitude coordinates of the vehicle. An interactive voice recognition (IVR) system located at the third-party service center is used to determine if the latitude and longitude coordinates are valid. If the coordinates are determined to be valid, the third-party service center provides the user with a selection of vehicle-incident non-emergency response services.

  • Patent number: 9942740
    Abstract: A method and system for providing emergency call (e-call) services is disclosed. A third-party service center receives a communication from a vehicle over a communication pathway. Signaling is automatically sent to the vehicle from the third-party service center over the communication pathway. Location information is received from the vehicle at the third-party service center in response to the signaling.
