Abstract:
The invention relates to a method implemented at a first wireless network to handoff a mobile wireless device to a second wireless network, the method comprising: receiving coverage information associated with the mobile wireless device, wherein the received coverage information includes a physical location of the mobile wireless device; determining whether the mobile wireless device is capable of being covered by the second wireless network based, on the received coverage information, wherein the determining includes determining that the mobile wireless device is not currently covered by the second wireless network; and transmitting a handoff request to the second wireless network based, at least in part, on a determination that the mobile wireless device is capable of being covered by the second wireless network. Further, the invention relates to a method and apparatus to handoff a mobile wireless device from a first wireless network to a second wireless network.
Abstract:
A glue composition can include: one or more glue proteins selected to undergo a conformational change responsive to a pH change; and one or more pH components selected to change the pH of the one or more glue proteins in response to a change in one or more conditions. The glue can be prepared by: providing one or more glue proteins selected to undergo a conformational change in response to a pH change; and combining the glue proteins with one or more pH components selected to change the pH of the one or more glue proteins in response to a change in one or more conditions.
Abstract:
The present disclosure generally relates to instruction optimization (or otherwise improved execution of instructions) using voltage-based functional performance variation. In some examples, a method is described that includes instruction optimization (or otherwise improved execution of instructions) using voltage-based functional performance variation. In some examples, the method includes characterizing a workload for a multi-core processor to identify one or more subunits of individual cores of the multi-core processor for utilization by instructions included in the workload, selecting a voltage at which to operate cores of the multi-core processor, and assigning individual ones of the instructions of the workload to a core of the cores of the multi-core processor based on performance of the identified one or more subunits of the individual cores at the selected voltage.
Abstract:
Technologies are generally described for adjusting a pressure in a microreactor system. An example microreactor system may include a reaction chamber, wherein the reaction chamber is effective to receive at least one reactant, and carry out a reaction on the reactant to produce a product. An example method may comprise controlling a first electroosmotic pump to drive a first fluid toward the reaction chamber with a first force. In some examples. the method may further comprise controlling a second electroosmotic pump to drive a second fluid toward the reaction chamber with a second force. In some examples, the method may further comprise carrying out the reaction on the reactants in the reaction chamber to produce the product. The first and the second forces may be effective to generate a pressure inside the reaction chamber, where the pressure is greater than one atmosphere.
