Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In some cases, a user equipment (UE) may be scheduled to transmit uplink signals on different carriers during transmission time intervals (TTIs) that have different durations. As such, a TTI on a first carrier (e.g. ,  a reference carrier) may overlap with multiple shortened TTIs (sTTIs) on a second carrier (e.g. ,  a non-reference carrier). Using the techniques described herein, the UE may select a calibration point (or a gain index) for uplink transmissions at the beginning of the TTI on the reference carrier based on an amount of power reserved for expected power increases during the TTI. As such, when the UE has to update its transmit power for an uplink transmission during an sTTI on the second carrier, the UE may apply a digital back-off from a power associated with the calibration point.

Abstract: Input data can be losslessly reduced by using a data structure that organizes prime data elements based on their contents. Alternatively, the data structure can organize prime data elements based on the contents of a name that is derived from the prime data elements. Specifically, video data can be losslessly reduced by (1) using the data structure to identify a set of prime data elements, and (2) using the set of prime data elements to losslessly reduce intra-frames. The input data can be dynamically partitioned based on the memory usage of components of the data structure. Parcels can be created based on the partitions to facilitate archiving and movement of the data. The losslessly reduced data can be stored using a set of distilled files and a set of prime data element files.

Abstract: Chemically induced dimerizers (AbCIDs) have emerged as one of the most powerful tools to artificially regulate signaling pathways in cells; however, no facile method to identify or design these systems currently exists. The present invention provides a methodology to rapidly generate antibody-based chemically induced dimerizers (AbCIDs) from known small-molecule-protein complexes by selecting for synthetic antibodies that recognize the chemical epitope created by the bound small molecule. Success of this strategy is demonstrated by generating ten chemically- inducible antibodies against the BCL-xL/ ABT-737 complex. Three of the antibodies are highly selective for the BCL-xL/ ABT-737 complex over BCL-xL alone. Two exemplary important cellular applications of AbCIDs are demonstrated by applying them intracellularly to induce CRISPRa-mediated gene expression and extracellularly to regulate CAR T-cell activation with the small molecule, ABT-737. ABT-737 is not toxic at the concentrations used to activate AbCIDs in cells. AbCIDs provided by this invention are new and orthogonal AbCIDs, expanding the limited toolbox of available CIDs.
