Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling playback of media content items on a media playback device. A graphical user interface displays media playback controls including an automatic playback switch. The switch is configured to enable or disable automatic playback of an autoplay queue of media content items. An initial queue of media content is selected for playback on the media playback device. When automatic playback is enabled, the system automatically generates a queue of media that is related to the initial queue and initiates playback on the media playback device after the initial queue concludes. Automatic playback options can also include repeating the initial queue or a single track within the initial queue.

Abstract: A test head for testing a workpiece has an ultrasonic transducer configuration with a plurality of ultrasonic transducers. The test head further contains a carrier matched to a surface contour of the workpiece, a damping layer arranged on the carrier, and a flexible conductor foil configuration, which is arranged on the damping layer and has a number of electrically separated conductor tracks which corresponds to the number of transducer elements. The transducer elements are arranged on the conductor tracks alongside one another in at least one row, and in each case are electrically contact-connected to one of the conductor tracks.

Abstract: An ultrasonic sensor for detecting and/or scanning an object includes a substrate and a piezoelectric sensor unit arranged on or at this substrate and/or connected to this substrate. The rear side of the substrate facing away from the piezoelectric sensor unit has a surface structure including a plurality of elevated portions and recesses, with this surface structure being configured so that a diffuse scattering of ultrasonic waves incident on the rear side from the direction of the sensor unit takes place by it; and/or in that its elevated portions and/or recesses have a mean lateral extent in the range of 0.05 ?m to 1 mm, preferably from 0.1 ?m to 200 ?m, preferably from 0.2 ?m to 20 ?m, and/or a mean lateral extent which is smaller than or equal to the wavelength of an ultrasonic wave which can be produced by the piezoelectric sensor unit.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for resolving where to forward DNS (domain name service) requests for a user simultaneously logged into more than one service existing on a data communications network utilizes an active service list (ASL) to keep track of the services that the user is currently logged into. The active service list includes a list of services sorted in a particular order based on information about the service and sometimes the order in which the user logged into the services. Each service has a profile that defines, among other things, the IP Address space for the service and a Domain attribute. To determine the appropriate service and, therefore, the appropriate DNS server for a DNS request, the QName from the DNS request is compared to the configured Domain attribute(s) for each service in the order of the ASL. If a match is found, then the DNS request packet is modified to re-direct the DNS request to the DNS server configured for the matched service.

Abstract: An electronic component includes a semiconductor chip and/or a test structure. The semiconductor chip includes a multi-layer coating having at least one interconnect layer, at least one insulation layer, and at least one planarization layer. A method of producing the component is also disclosed. Embedded adhesion regions are provided in the planarization layer, whereby the adhesion regions provide adhesion surfaces to the adjacent insulation layers.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic component having a semiconductor chip (1) and/or a test structure (55), whereby the semiconductor chip (1) comprises a multi-layer coating (2) including at least one interconnect layer (3, 4, 5), one insulation layer (6, 7, 8, 9) and one planarization layer (10), and to a method of producing said component. Embedded adhesion regions (12) are provided in the planarization layer (10), whereby the adhesion regions (12) provide adhesion surfaces (13, 14) to the adjacent insulation layers (8, 9; 65, 66).

Abstract: The frame system, especially for racks and interior fixtures comprises elongate lattice girders, including three chords not disposed in one plane and interconnected in transverse direction by ties. The ties are so arranged with respect to the chords that their legs define the sides of regular pyramids having square bases. Each of the pyramid surfaces is suitable for the connection of two lattice girders.
