  • Patent number: 11909314
    Abstract: The present invention provides a reconfigurable single-inductor multiport converters comprising a single inductor, a primary input port, a primary output port and a plurality of reconfigurable cells, each including a bidirectional port which is reconfigurable to be an auxiliary input port configured to share the inductor and work with the inductor to form an input cell or an auxiliary output port configured to work with a corresponding capacitor to form an output cell; and a plurality of switches arranged for facilitating the bidirectional port to act as auxiliary input port or auxiliary output port; and regulating bidirectional power flowing through the bidirectional port. The present invention provides a simple and low-cost solution for integrating multiple sources and loads simultaneously. The adoption of single-inductor design minimizes the use of magnetic components and the independent output cells configuration avoids cross-regulation problem among output ports, which simplifies the control design.

  • Publication number: 20220127637
    Abstract: Provided is a polynucleotide the polynucleotide can be used as a WXRE transcriptional regulatory element used to increase the protein expression level of a protein expression system. A protein expression vector or a protein expression systems comprising the above-mentioned WXRE transcriptional regulatory element as well as the use thereof are also provided. The use of the WXRE transcriptional regulatory element can increase the expression level of a heterologous protein greatly with its biological activity unchanged.

  • Patent number: 11250100
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a monitoring process detects one or more events capable of causing a future state change in a browser application having initially loaded a single page application (SPA) page, and maintains one or more causality chains of the one or more events, each causality chain tracing events of that causality chain to a respective root cause event of that causality chain. Upon detecting a virtual page transition to create a new virtual page, the monitoring process may determine that a cause of the virtual page transition matches a particular root cause event of a particular causality chain, and correlates all events of the particular causality chain to the new virtual page (e.g., where events may notably include XHRs). In another embodiment, the monitoring process may further set a start time of the particular root cause event as the start time of the new virtual page.

  • Patent number: 10911517
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a monitoring process detects a page load start time of a single page application (SPA) page having added direct resources and dynamic resources, tracks the direct resources and dynamic resources, and notes a load end time for each of the tracked direct resources and dynamic resources. The monitoring process stops the tracking of the direct resources and dynamic resources in response to a determination of a threshold duration of network inactivity, and determines a maximum load end time of the tracked direct resources and dynamic resources. Accordingly, the monitoring process may then set a page load time of the SPA page as a difference between the maximum load end time and the page load start time.
