Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting an occlusion in an infusion device are disclosed. One method includes generating, during an infusion session at predetermined intervals, a feature vector comprising an initial measurement of a physical force caused by fluid motion through an infusion device at the start of an infusion session, a current measurement of the physical force, a long term change in the measurement of the physical force, and a short term change in the measurement of the physical force. The feature vector is inputted, during the predetermined intervals, into a support vector machine (“SVM”) to output an indication of a presence or an absence of an occlusion in the infusion device. The SVM may be trained using reference data from reference infusion sessions having known consequences regarding the presence or the absence of an occlusion at various times during the reference infusion sessions.

Abstract: Techniques for controlling parameters for uplink transmission associated with a device to facilitate improving a communication condition metric(s) (CCM(s)) of the uplink transmission are presented. A communication management component (CMC) can determine whether CCM satisfies a first threshold CCM. If CCM does not, CMC can modify a parameter(s) to reduce a number of resource blocks or an MCS value to improve the CCM. If respective minimum threshold levels have been reached for the number of resource blocks and MCS value, and CCM still is not satisfying the first threshold CCM, CMC can modify a parameter to increase an amount of repetition of data packets for uplink transmission (unless a maximum threshold amount of repetition is reached). If CCM satisfies an applicable threshold CCM for a defined amount of time, CMC can modify parameters to increase the number of resource blocks, increase MCS value, or reduce repetition of data packets.

Abstract: A system information block (SIB) in a radio interface is dedicated to broadcast data intended for Internet of things (IoT) devices. The data can be associated with most any IoT service, such as but not limited to, a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and/or vehicle-to-everything (V2X) service. In one aspect, data, associated with an event, that has been aggregated from one or more IoT devices located within a region can be analyzed to determine a geographical area where a message regarding the event (e.g., accident) is to be broadcast. Further, the message can be dynamically prioritized and/or customized to target a particular class of IoT devices (e.g., connected cars) by employing different message identifiers.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for processing a highly alloyed aluminum alloy sheet with a high rolling yield, including the steps of cold rolling and hot rolling of an alloy sheet followed by heat treatment. The highly alloyed Al—Cu—Mg—Ag alloy sheet is subjected to short-time solution treatment and quenching at high temperature for multiple times by increasing the solution treatment temperature and shortening the solution treatment time. In this way, the mechanical properties of the alloy at room temperature and high temperature match with or even exceed those of a conventional alloy subjected to long-time solution treatment at high temperature. The present invention implements multiple times of short-time continuous solution treatment and quenching of a highly-alloyed coiled aluminum alloy sheet. This prevents a large amount of scraps caused by the conventional processes of segmented solution treatment and quenching of the coiled material and stretching straightening treatment.
