  • Publication number: 20250070168
    Abstract: The present application provides a battery cell, a battery, and an electrical device, belonging to the field of battery technology. The battery cell includes a positive electrode sheet and an electrolyte solution. A coating mass of a positive electrode active material layer on a single side of the positive electrode sheet is 410 mg/1540.25 mm2 to 550 mg/1540.25 mm2, and a membrane resistance of the positive electrode sheet is ?1?. A conductivity of the electrolyte solution is ?14 mS/cm. The battery cell has thick coated electrode sheets, where the lower membrane resistance of the positive electrode sheet indicates its higher conductivity, which is conducive to reducing solid-state ohmic resistance of the battery cell. The higher conductivity of the electrolyte solution is conducive to reducing liquid-phase ohmic impedance of the battery and alleviating concentration polarization to some extent.

  • Patent number: 12086627
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a serverless function agent determines that a client stub function has been invoked with a first set of arguments in a first execution environment. The serverless function agent then performs one or more operations on a media item that is associated with a first argument included in the first set of arguments to generate a second argument included in a second set of arguments. Notably, the first argument has a first data type and the second argument has a second data type. Subsequently, the serverless function agent invokes a function with the second set of arguments in a second execution environment. Advantageously, because the serverless function agent automatically performs operations on the media item, the overall amount of technical know-how and manual effort required to enable the function to successfully execute on a wide range of media items can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 11734054
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a function build application compiles source code to generate an executable version of a function that has a first function signature. The function build application then replaces a first data type of a first parameter included in the first function signature with a second data type to generate a second function signature for a client stub function. Subsequently, the function build application generates a remote procedure call (RPC) client that includes the client stub function. Notably, the RPC client causes the function to execute when the client stub function is invoked. Advantageously, unlike conventional techniques that require manual generation of strongly typed functions, the function build application automatically customizes the RPC client for the function.
