  • Patent number: 9978344
    Abstract: A method for caching images in a virtual environment uses hash tables to store information about an application or window and to store updated images. Suitable areas of applications or windows are fixed relative to the window for many cases, and also include a relatively small number of possible display statuses. Hash tables are used on an agent side and a client side to track previous image updates. When an updated image is determined to be already stored in a cache, the agent side can transmit a hash identifying the image to the client side, and the client side can update the display with the cached image.

  • Patent number: 9941194
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a substrate made of a first material and having a surface is provided. A first and second nozzle dispense a first solvent paste including electrically conductive nanoparticles and a second solvent paste including non-conductive nanoparticles respectively while moving over the surface of the substrate. The first and second nozzles additively deposit a uniform layer comprising sequential and contiguous zones alternating between the first solvent paste and the second solvent paste. Energy is applied to the nanoparticles to sinter together the nanoparticles and diffuse the nanoparticles into the substrate. The sintered nanoparticles form a layer composed of an alternating sequence of electrically conductive zones contiguous with electrically non-conductive zones.

  • Publication number: 20180080516
    Abstract: A Lin-Xie brake used by a mine hoist, a car, a high-speed train, etc. Gas springs are used to replace belleville springs, and a positive pressure is also always applied to brake pads to both ensure and increase the brake reliability and a positive pressure per unit area. And the Lin-Xie brake resolves problems such as deformation of the belleville springs, a serious change in an elastic force, sudden cracking and decompression, inconvenient monitoring, and a manufacturing difficulty. For the Lin-Xie brake, a brake head floating structure is used to reduce a requirement on end face runout of a brake disc. An oil-gas linkage plunger pump is used to replace a hydraulic station, which greatly reduces manufacturing costs, and reduces energy consumption. The Lin-Xie brake is an ideal product to replace medium or large-sized Lin-Xie brakes used by existing mine hoists, cars, high-speed trains, etc.

  • Patent number: 9865527
    Abstract: A device comprises a substrate and an adhesive nanoparticle layer patterned into zones of electrical conductance and insulation on top of the substrate surface. A diffusion region adjoining the surface comprises an admixture of the nanoparticles in the substrate material. When the nanoparticle layer is patterned from originally all-conductive nanoparticles, the insulating zones are created by selective oxidation; when the nanoparticle layer is patterned from originally all-non-conductive nanoparticles, the conductive zones are created by depositing selectively a volatile reducing agent. A package of insulating material is in touch with the nanoparticle layer and fills any voids in the nanoparticle layer.

  • Patent number: 9849192
    Abstract: The present invention relates to matriptase antibodies and immunoconjugates of matriptase antibodies with cytotoxic agents and the use thereof for killing or inhibiting the growth of matriptase-expressing cancer cells, such as those of multiple myeloma and breast cancers. In particular, immunoconjugates comprising a matriptase monoclonal antibody and anticancer agents such as auristatin, including monomethyl auristatin E(MMAE) and monomethyl auristatin F(MMAF) are introduced, which have potent antitumor activity in vivo. Moreover, importantly; there was no weight loss or other evidence of toxicity in the animals, indicating that no significant free drug was released into the circulation from the conjugate. The present invention also provides compositions comprising these new immunoconjugates and use of them for treatment of malignancies comprising cells that express matriptase.

  • Publication number: 20170311894
    Abstract: Aspects disclosed in the detailed description include an ingestible power harvesting device and related applications. An ingestible power harvesting device includes a cathode electrode and an anode electrode that can catalyze a power generating reaction to generate a direct current (DC) power when surrounded by an acidic electrolyte. The cathode electrode and the anode electrode are coupled to an encapsulated electronic device that includes power harvesting circuitry configured to harvest the DC power and output a DC supply voltage for a prolonged period. In examples discussed herein, the prolonged period is at least five days. The DC supply voltage powers an electronic circuit in the encapsulated electronic device to support a defined in vivo operation (e.g., controlled drug delivery, in vivo vital signs monitoring, etc.). As such, the ingestible power harvesting device can operate in vivo for the prolonged period without requiring an embedded conventional battery.
