Abstract:
A method for cross-layer power management in a multi-layer system includes determining whether there is a service level violation for an application running on a hardware platform. Power consumption of the hardware platform is controlled in response to the service level violation.
Abstract:
Operationalizing a goal includes receiving the goal and execution rules associated with the goal, where one or more execution rules correspond to an execution system operable to initiate execution of the execution rules. The goal is represented in a representation language that includes a set of operations. An operation of the set of operations is applied to the goal to partition the goal into subgoals. For each subgoal, an operation of the set of operations is applied to the subgoal to derive and configure one or more execution rules associated with the subgoal. The goals, the applied operations, the subgoals, and the execution rules are recorded as operationalized knowledge to operationalize the goal.

The present invention provides a superoxide dismutase gene from Potentilla atrosanguinea, a construct containing the gene coding for superoxide dismutase and transformed E.coli producing the SOD protein.
Abstract:
This invention relates to methods for activating a TRPV4 channel receptor, thereby reducing the production and/or release of matrix degrading enzymes by a cell expressing a TRPV4 channel receptor, thereby reducing the breakdown of an extra-cellular matrix. Also contemplated within the scope of the invention are methods of attenuating the inhibition of matrix production.
Abstract:
Circuitry for reducing propagation delays in calculation of a value for use in a floating point multiply-accumulate operation. In the circuitry, a carry-save adder receives values of three input operands from three latches. A carry-lookahead adder receives the outputs from the carry-save adder and implements an XOR operation on a most-significant bit along with its own logic operation to produce a value for the floating point multiply-accumulate operation. Modification of the carry-lookahead adder to perform the XOR operation results in elimination of an entire stage of logic.

Abstract:
According to an aspect of the present invention, a scheduler schedules a thread, supporting the execution of a microblock, to process a packet based on the status of the thread and presence of a valid message corresponding to the thread. The microblock and the thread may be selected based on a corresponding scheduling policy. Such an approach may result in an efficient use of processor cycles and the bandwidth of the internal bus.
Abstract:
A band edge amplitude reduction system changes the filtering characteristics of a receiver based on the amplitude of signal(s) adjacent to an edge of the operating band of the receiver and/or of signals not under the power control of the receiver. For example, the receiver measures the power level over a bandwidth at the band edges of the operating band of the receiver. If the signals adjacent to the operating band are strong enough relative to the signal power within the operating band, overload protection circuitry changes the filtering characteristics of the receiver to improve the attenuation of the signal(s) from the adjacent band(s). In certain embodiments, the overload protection circuitry switches in filter(s) with a narrower bandwidth to attenuate the signal(s) from adjacent band(s) at the edge(s) of the operating band of the receiver, thereby preventing interference with or the overload of the receiver by signals from outside the operating band and/or not under the power control of the receiver.
Abstract:
A monitoring method includes detecting instances of physical presence of at least one individual, storing location information identifying the at least one individual and information related to the instances, displaying on a display a visual image of a physical environment and displaying on the display an image depicting the at least one individual's movements through the physical environment based on the stored location information.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the development of a unique inflorescence bearing mutant plant type lli/lli (LEAF-LESS INFLORESCENCE). Further the present invention relates to the development of a unique inflorescence bearing mutant plant type lli/lli (LEAF-LESS INFLORESCENCE) through chemical mutagenesis The present invention relates to the development of a new and distinct plant type for floricultural usage. The new type is a monogenic Mendelian recessive stable mutant plant of Catharanthus roseus with a novel leafless inflorescence architecture with increased flower frequency. This distinct plant of Catharanthus roseus was developed through chemical mutagenesis followed by salt tolerance selection.
