V.O

One or more block vectors (BVs) associated with a block of content may be determined. Reference blocks based on the BVs may be used to evaluate candidate prediction modes. A metric value may be determined for each of the candidate prediction modes. A subset of the candidate prediction modes may be selected based on the metric values. The selected prediction modes may be used to generate predicted blocks. A prediction block for the block may be determined by combining the predicted blocks. The block may be coded based on the prediction block.

The present invention relates to a foldable cart system configured for attachment to a cycle's rear portion. The system comprises a carrier secured to or near the rear section of the cycle featuring a mounting structure to support the cart body. The wheeled cart body is pivotally connected to the carrier, allowing for versatile positioning. This cart body is configured to transport one or more objects and can be adjusted between two positions: an extended position, where the cart is deployed rearwardly, engaging its wheels with the ground for mobility, and a folded position, where the cart body is compactly folded and supported on the cycle's rear portion, with its wheels repositioned to an inoperative state. The transition between these positions facilitates easy storage and transport. The system is configured to ensure stability during movement and compactness when not in use, providing an efficient solution for cyclists requiring additional carrying capacity.

A wireless device may communicate beam information to a base station. For example, the wireless device may trigger a beam report based on one or more qualities associated with one or more current beams and/or candidate beams. The wireless device may determine current beams based on a cell on which configuration parameters from the base station are configured. The wireless device may not transmit the beam report, for example, if a candidate beam is associated with a cell different from a cell of one or more current beams.

Disclosed herein is a wheel chock assembly comprising a wheel chock (200) and a wheel chock holder (100). The wheel chock holder comprises a base plate (110) that provides a contact surface (113) arranged for abutting the flat wall of the wheel chock in a secured position. A stud pin (120) protrudes from the base plate at an incline angle such that it is inclined towards the contact surface. In the secured position, the stud pin extends through a pivot element (203) of the wheel chock while the flat wall abuts the contact surface. Locking means (130) are provided at a distal end of the stud pin and arranged for preventing a movement of the wheel chock away from the contact surface of the base plate due to a rotation of the wheel chock about the centerline of the stud pin.

A power generation system (100) with a power generator (110) and a separate external fuel tank (150) are provided. The power generator is arranged to transform fuel to electrical energy. The power generator has an internal tank (122) with a first fuel pump (124) to transport fuel to an energy converter. The separate fuel tank (150) is provided with a second fuel pump (146) to supply fuel to the power generator, either directly to the energy converter or to the internal fuel tank. The second fuel pump is controlled by the power generator and may be operated if there is less than a particular amount of fuel left in the internal tank.

Disclosed is a method and printing device for transferring a pattern from a support surface onto a target surface. A low viscous substance with at least two phases, i.e. a carrier material and a functional material, is applied onto the support surface. The support surface comprises first and second zones that respectively attract and repel the substance, thereby patterning the applied substance. The substance comprises at least one low vapor pressure material and at least one high vapor pressure material. The viscosity of the patterned substance is initially increased by at least partially evaporating the low vapor pressure material, before a part of the high vapor pressure material is rapidly evaporated with a high heat flux at its contact surface with the support surface, to transfer the patterned substance.

The invention pertains to the testing of membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs), in particular to testing the performance of MEAs that are used for water electrolysis, more in particular for Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) water electrolysis.

Disclosed are a chip, a chip-based data access method, a storage medium, and an electronic device. The chip includes: a first chip domain and a second chip domain, where a functional safety level of the first chip domain is higher than that of the second chip domain, and the first chip domain is configured to generate a data access request for the second chip domain; and an isolation circuit, configured to perform a memory access operation on a storage space of the second chip domain based on the data access request, and return a request execution result of the data access request to the first chip domain based on an actual feedback status of the second chip domain for the memory access operation, so that the storage space of the second chip domain is used as an extended storage space of the first chip domain.

The invention relates to an integrated photonic circuit, comprising multimode optical couplers orderly spaced in close proximity to each other forming an optical coherent array such as an optical phased array or an optical coherent receiver array. The integrated photonic circuit further comprises a multiple number of mode converters and multiple sets of single mode optical waveguides. Here, a mode converter is connected to a multimode optical coupler and to a corresponding set of single mode optical waveguides. Further, the mode converter is arranged for converting a multimode signal propagating from the multimode optical coupler into a plurality of single modes each individually propagating into the single mode optical waveguides, or for converting a plurality of single modes individually propagating from the single mode optical waveguides into a multimode signal propagating into the multimode optical coupler.

An improved floating-point multiplier accumulator, FP-multiplier accumulator, (2) is provided herein that comprises a multiplication pipeline (20) and an accumulation pipeline (22). The multiplication pipeline (20) has a first plurality of pipeline stages (201,...,205) for performing an FP multiplication of a first FP number and a second FP number. The accumulation pipeline (22) has a second plurality of pipeline stages (220,...,224) for performing an FP addition of a first FP multiplication result and a second FP multiplication result. The multiplication pipeline (20) is configured to store an FP multiplication result in a first accumulation pipeline input register (220A) in each first clock cycle and to store an FP multiplication result in a second accumulation pipeline input register (220B) in each second clock cycle and the accumulation pipeline being configured to start a new FP addition of the FP multiplication result in the first accumulation pipeline input register (220A) and in the second accumulation pipeline input register (220B) in each other clock cycle.
