An exemplary thermally conductive textile may be constructed from an elasticated band for encircling a body part of a user (e.g., a user's head) and one or more thermally conductive wires that are affixed to the elasticated band in a wave pattern. The thermally conductive wires being arranged in the wave pattern allows for the thermally conductive wires to freely stretch and contract as forces are exerted on the elasticated band. Thus, the thermally conductive textile described herein exhibit elastic properties that are predominantly governed by the elasticated band while also exhibiting thermal properties that are predominantly governed by the thermally conductive wires. The thermally conductive textiles may also include locking fibers to restrict deformation of the wave pattern of the thermally conductive wires.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for monitoring the status of a network connection between first and second host computers. The method is performed in some embodiments by a tunnel monitor executing on the first host computer that also separately executes a machine, where the machine uses a tunnel to send and receive messages to and from the second host computer. The method establishes a liveness channel with the machine to iteratively determine whether the first machine is operational. The method further establishes a monitoring session with the second host computer to iteratively determine whether the tunnel is operational. When a determination is made through the liveness channel that the machine is no longer operational, the method terminates the monitoring session with the second host computer. When a determination is made that the tunnel is no longer operational, the method notifies the machine through the liveness channel.

Title: Anisotropy model guided fracture properties extraction from vsp data
Inventor: ZHAO XIAOMIN
IPC: G01V1/28
Filed: 2020-08-04
Abstract: A DAS VSP technique is used to determine the induced fracture height and fracture density of an induced fracture region. The DAS VSP technique obtains pre-hydraulic fracturing DAS VSP survey time-lapse data to establish a baseline reference for the direct acoustic wave travel time. The DAS VSP technique obtains one or more time-lapse data corresponding to the subsequent monitor surveys conducted after each hydraulic fracturing stage along the well. Forward modeling is used to determine a theoretical acoustic wave travel time difference. The forward modeling uses seismic anisotropy to describe the behavior of seismic waves traveling through the induced fracture regions. An inversion scheme is then used to invert for the induced fracture height and the fracture density using the forward modeling. The two extracted induced fracture characteristics may then be used to determine optimal hydraulic fracturing parameters.

Title: Hierarchical memory systems
Inventor: Korzh Anton
IPC: G11C7/10
Filed: 2020-08-14
Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for hierarchical memory systems are described. A hierarchical memory system can leverage persistent memory to store data that is generally stored in a non-persistent memory, thereby increasing an amount of storage space allocated to a computing system at a lower cost than approaches that rely solely on non-persistent memory. In an example apparatus, an input/output (I/O) device can receive signaling that includes a command to write to or read data from an address corresponding to a non-persistent memory device, and can determine where to redirect the request. For example, the I/O device can determine to write or read data to and/or from the non-persistent memory device or the persistent memory device based at least in part on one or more characteristics of the data.
