Abstract: Technologies are generally described for systems, devices and methods effective to select program instructions for a hardware finite automaton on a multi-core processor that includes two or more cores. A hardware finite automata manager may identify executable instructions associated with a particular one of the cores of the multi-core processor. The hardware finite automata manager may determine that the hardware finite automaton is available to be used. The hardware finite automata manager, in response to the determination that the hardware finite automaton is available, may select at least one program instruction based on the executable instructions. The at least one program instruction may be configured to modify the hardware finite automaton to pre-fetch data. The hardware finite automaton manager may transmit the at least one program instruction to the hardware finite automaton.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described for generating a communication request. An example method may include retrieving an image from a memory. The method may also include sending the image to a first device operated by a first user and a second device operated by a second user. The method may also include receiving a first indication of a first selection region from the first device. The method may also include receiving a second indication of a second selection region from the second device. The method may also include analyzing the first and second selection regions. The method may also include selecting the first and second user based on the analysis. The method may also include generating the communication request to request communication between the first user and the second user. The method may also include sending the communication request to at least one of the first device or the second device.

Abstract: A reinforcing element and a method of forming the reinforcing element are generally described. The reinforcing element may be used in reinforcing a cementitious material and may comprise a settable material and a tension-resistant material that extends for a length of the element. To form the reinforcing element the settable material and tension-resistant material may be disposed together such that the settable and tension-resistant materials generally take the form of the reinforcing element. The settable material may then be cured.

Abstract: Filtration systems and methods for removing a filter residue from a filter employed in filtering a liquid (for example, grey water). The filtration system may include a vessel having an inlet through which a liquid can be introduced during use and an outlet through which filtered clean liquid can exit. A filter configured to filter the liquid is disposed within the vessel between the inlet and the outlet. The filtration system may further include at least one transducer disposed on or adjacent to the filter. The at least one transducer may be configured to generate one or more pressure waves effective to dislodge at least some residue materials collected on an upstream side of the filter.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses disclosed herein relate to a recyclable thermoplastic unit that includes a casing body composed of a first thermoplastic having a first melting point. The casing body also includes a first locking mechanism that is configured to mate with a second locking mechanism of a sacrifice layer. The sacrifice layer is composed of a second thermoplastic and includes the second locking mechanism. The sacrifice layer has a melting point that is greater than the melting point of the casing body.

Abstract: A method for the quality control of dairy products is disclosed. The method includes scanning the surface of a dairy product test sample using a chromatic scanner system to generate a spectral pattern of reflected light intensities, which pattern is unique to the test sample. The spectral pattern from the test sample is compared with spectral patterns from one or more reference dairy products to provide an indication of test sample identify, quality and/or nutritional content.

Abstract: An evaporation-condensation system and methods of manufacturing and using the same are disclosed. The system may include a condensation surface having one or more wipers and a gas diffusion apparatus. The one or more wipers may be configured to move over the condensation surface to displace one or more of fouling material and condensed material that may be present on the condensation surface. The gas diffusion apparatus may include one or more anti-gas blades positioned substantially parallel to the condensation surface and one or more gas storage areas. The gas diffusion apparatus may be configured to guide an amount of vapor molecules towards the condensation surface and promote condensation of the vapor molecules by rotating the one or more anti-gas blades around a central axis and displacing an amount of non-condensable gas into the one or more gas storage areas.
