In various aspects, the highly sustainable circuit assembly includes a substrate layer; and a pattern of contact points supported by the substrate layer. The pattern of contact points can be configured to correspond to at least one terminal of an electrical component. The pattern of contact points can include a deformable conductive material. The deformable conductive material can be a non-hazardous, readily reclaimable, readily recyclable material.

Abstract: A circuit assembly may include a substrate and a pattern of contact points formed from deformable conductive material supported by the substrate. The assembly may further include an electric component supported by the substrate and having terminals arranged in a pattern corresponding to the pattern of contacts points. The one or more of the terminals of the electric component may contact one or more of the corresponding contact points to form one or more electrical connections between the electric component and the contact points.

Abstract: A system for imaging material, typically in an underground scenario, comprising of a plurality of conductive electrodes supported on a conductive substrate positionable in an environment to be imaged, a signal generator connected to at least two of the electrodes, and a signal detector connected to at least two of the electrodes, and wherein an impedance compensator is arranged between each electrode and its substrate to counter parasitic impedance between the two. Typically the impedance compensator may be arranged to act as a negative capacitance, which may be approximately equal to any capacitance between the electrode and the substrate. An electrode may be a drive electrode coupled to a signal generator, or a detector electrode coupled to a detector, or may be reconfigurable to act as either one.

Abstract: A method of generating a routing table containing information as to the weighted distance between client's that use a resolver and each rack gateway, taking into account how traffic to each client can egress from the CDN AS. The routing table is generated from matrix multiplication of two matrices. One matrix contains information as to the proportion of each client's use of each resolver in a first autonomous system. The second matrix contains information as to the distance between each client and each rack, with respect to an egress gateway, in a second autonomous system. The resulting routing table is used to identify a gateway from which to serve content to a client.

Abstract: Systems and methods for configuring telecommunications networks include obtaining network data flow information for a telecommunications network that includes attributes of multiple routes of data transmission through the telecommunications network. Utilizing at least one processing device, a filtering criteria is applied to the network data flow information to identify a subset of the routes having a shared attribute to generate filtered data. The filtered data is then used to generate a diagrammatic representation of the network flows and/or processed to automatically generate reconfiguration messages to improve network traffic distribution and flow.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems and methods for monitoring and quantifying the performance of a content delivery network (CDN) from a client side perspective based on server side events. In one particular embodiment, one or more content servers of the CDN may provide connectivity or other performance information to a collector device or site. This information may be reported by each of the content servers for each request for content received at the server. The collector site may then store the received performance information in a database for analysis by one or more systems.

Abstract: A sensor system for the measurement of a physical parameter, such as temperature or pressure comprises a first, fixed module (5), and a second module (20) positionable proximate to the first. The first module has a measurement coil (6) and a reference coil (7), where the measurement coil forms part of an electrical circuit that is subject to variation by the physical parameter, and the reference coil forms part of a circuit not subject to the physical parameter being measured. The second module has a pair of reading coils (22, 23), each arranged to couple to respective measurement and reference coils, where the reading coils are connectable to signal generation and measurement equipment, and the system is arranged to measure electrical characteristics of the measurement and reference coils via the coupling. It has particular utility in harsh environments such as in wells, where the first module may be fixed, and the second module may be lowered adjacent the first.
