An apparatus comprising: means for receiving a quasi co-location configuration associated with a first signal and a second signal, the quasi co-location configuration providing information about a set of one or more resource elements for which the quasi co-location configuration applies; means for receiving the first and second signals; and means for using the quasi co-location configuration to process one or more of the first and second signals.

A quantum computing system (1) including a quantum computing device (10) that includes a plurality of qubits (14). The quantum computing system further includes a qubit interface (34) including a readout circuit (100). The readout circuit is configured to collect a qubit measurement readout (40) of one or more of the plurality of qubits. The qubit measurement readout further includes a signal-frequency readout (42) collected at a signal frequency (fs) and an idler-frequency readout (44) collected at an idler frequency (fi). The quantum computing system further includes a classical computing device (18) configured to receive the qubit measurement readout from the readout circuit. The classical computing device is further configured to compute a weighted sum (50) based at least in part on the signal-frequency readout and the idler-frequency readout. The classical computing device is further configured to output a combined measurement readout of an observable (52) of the one or more qubits, as indicated by the weighted sum.

Regenerable items serve as identifiers or keys or both. A regenerable items tuple is generated by combining context-specific identifiers into a string, hashing the string, and designating individual hash portions as respective regenerable items. Regenerable items maintain artifact tracking continuity after a reinstall, a reboot, or another intervening event without retrieval of a previously generated value from a registry or state file. Some regenerable items conform to a universally unique identifier specification. Some regenerable items are free of reliance on nondeterministic content, and some are free of reliance on time-dependent content.

A method for developing a footwear article is implemented by a computing unit. The computing unit receives a foot scan model (2) corresponding to an external shape of a foot, a set of feature point parameters, and a set of comfort parameters. A preliminary digital model (6) of the footwear article is calculated and generated based on the foot scan model (2), the set of feature point parameters, and the set of comfort parameters. An external shape of the preliminary digital model (6) of the footwear article is modified, and a microstructure (8) is added to the preliminary digital model (6) of the footwear article for enhancing support, thereby generating a modified digital model (5) of the footwear article.

Provided are a coin recognition device, a coin recognition method, and a coin recognition program that can improve the angle-alignment performance for coins with a symmetrical pattern. The coin recognition device includes: an image acquisition unit configured to acquire an input image of a coin to be recognized; a reference angle acquisition unit configured to acquire a reference angle having a best matching score among matching scores obtained by performing matching between the input image and a pre-registered first reference image in increments of a first shift angle; a rotation angle determination unit configured to determine a rotation angle of the coin based on matching scores obtained by performing matching between the input image and a pre-registered second reference image at least at the reference angle and at a designated angle shifted from the reference angle by a specific angle; and a recognition unit configured to recognize the coin using the rotation angle of the coin determined by the rotation angle determination unit.

A qubit island including a plurality of topological superconducting wires, a trivial superconducting wire that couples the topological superconducting wires, and one or more electrostatic gates located above the topological superconducting wires and the trivial superconducting wire in a thickness direction. The plurality of topological superconducting wires each have respective topological wire widths that are greater than a trivial wire width of the trivial superconducting wire. The one or more electrostatic gates are operated at a gate voltage that places the topological superconducting wires into a single sub-band regime and places the trivial superconducting wire into a depleted regime.

An apparatus configured to: receive, from a network node, a configuration for carrier aggregation, wherein the configuration comprises, at least, an indication of at least one secondary cell; and configure reception from the at least one secondary cell based, at least partially, on: whether a first band comprising at least one component carrier of a serving cell, and a second band comprising at least one component carrier of the at least one secondary cell, are a same band, and whether use of the single receiver chain is estimated to negatively impact reception performance of the apparatus, wherein the apparatus is capable of receiving at least two non-adjacent component carriers using a single receiver chain.

Some example embodiments may relate to laterally moveable compressor piston rod lip seals. For example, a piston rod lip seal assembly may include a lip seal including a circumferential lip configured to seal an inner diameter of the lip seal. The piston rod lip seal assembly may be configured for lateral motion of a piston rod within a housing component, and the lateral motion may be perpendicular to an axis of the piston rod. The piston rod lip seal assembly may further include a heel, a circumferential outer ring, and a spring. The spring may be disposed between, and in contact with, the circumferential lip and the circumferential outer ring. The piston rod lip seal assembly may further include a wave spring configured for face contact with a housing component.

The method for controlling a money handling apparatus includes: causing the money handling apparatus to store money in a first storage that stores and feeds money; causing the money handling apparatus to store money in a second storage that stores and feeds money; and causing the money handling apparatus to selectively perform a first collection process or a second collection process when performing a collection process of collecting money from the money handling apparatus. The first collection process is a process in which the money handling apparatus dispenses, to an outlet, money fed from the first storage and money fed from the second storage. The second collection process is a process in which the money handling apparatus consolidates money in the money handling apparatus into the first storage by moving money from the second storage to the first storage.
