Abstract: A method of planning the manufacture of component carriers includes defining a set of final product parameters as a target for component carriers to be manufactured, ranking the process parameters concerning their impact on the final product parameters, selecting a subset of higher ranked process parameters, inputting the selected subset of process parameters for processing by an artificial intelligence module, and determining an action plan for the manufacturing based on an output of the artificial intelligence module, where the product parameters are influenceable by a set of process parameters settable during the manufacturing method.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the enrichment of target nucleic acid sequences present in low-abundance relative to corresponding non-target or reference nucleic acid sequence in a sample. In particular, the methods allow for a substantially greater level of detection sensitivity of target sequence by orders of magnitude enrichment of a low-abundance sequence.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for fast signal acquisition on a preferred communication channel is disclosed. The apparatus includes a frequency and identification guidance system that can have a hardware as well software implementation. The memory of the device includes a prioritized multi-level system of channels and a prioritized multi-level system of identifiers. The frequency and identification guidance system utilizes both multi-level systems to guide the device to a channel belonging to the preferred Service Provider.

Abstract: A computer system includes three processors capable to operate concurrently—a scalar processor, a vector processor, and a bitstream processor. In encoding or decoding of video data, the vector processor performs operations that can be efficiently performed by a single instruction multiple data processor, for example, a discrete cosine transform (DCT) and motion compensation. The bitstream processor performs Huffman and RLC encoding or decoding. The bitstream processor can switch contexts to enable the computer system to process several data streams concurrently. The scalar and vector processors can be programmed to execute a single arithmetic or Boolean instruction. The bitstream processor cannot be programmed to execute a single arithmetic or Boolean instruction, but can be programmed to perform an entire video data processing operation. The computer system can handle different video standards. Different Huffman encoding and decoding tables are coded to share memory.
