Abstract: The present technology provides a method for minimizing the spread of novel coronaviruses such as SARS-CoV-2, which is the causative agent for the global COVID-19 pandemic, by tailored nanomaterials that mimics the infectious agent thus blocking the virus entry to the host by competitive inhibition of target receptors lowering the risk of contracting the COVID-19 disease. According to the invention, a synthetic carrier is provided for use in a method of preventing and reducing SARS-CoV-2 binding to target areas of cell surfaces such as ACE2 receptors of the host organism. The carrier comprises biocompatible particles having a maximum size in at least one dimension in the nanometer or micrometer range, forming a core, and further having a functionalized surface capable of binding to said target areas of said cell surfaces to at least temporarily block said target areas to prevent or minimize pathogen binding and thus, reducing the risk of the host contracting the disease caused by said virus. The nanocarrier can be loaded with active pharmaceutical ingredients e.g. Celastrol, Zinc and Interferon-Gamma modulators for targeted drug delivery by boosting the immune system and/or creating a hostile environment for viral replication lowering the risk of spreading the disease to other organisms.

Patent EP-4150196-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BERRY JAMES E
IPC: F01K23/10
Filed: 2021-04-27
Abstract: To produce power using the cold in a stored fluid in a cold condensed state (for example, LNG or liquid air), the fluid is initially pumped, heated, and expanded to generate a first amount of power and form initially expanded fluid, which is then re-condensed, re-pumped, re-heated, and re-expanded to generate a second amount of power, where the initially expanded fluid is re-condensed against the pumped fluid from the initial pumping. The technique can be used to store excess energy in the cold condensed fluid using excess energy generation capacity for subsequent recovery when energy is either deficient or otherwise more expense to generate.

Title: Power budget distribution in computer system
Inventor: SHAH PARTH SANJAYBHAI
IPC: G06F9/50
Filed: 2021-05-13
Abstract: A method of power distribution in a computer system associates a number of tokens with a plurality of frequency domains (for example, cores) of a central processing unit (CPU) computer chip. The number of tokens allotted to the CPU is based on the CPU power budget. Cores are organized as a ring topology. A token pool traverses the ring, picks up excess tokens from cores having excess tokens, and gives the tokens to cores that need additional tokens. Tokens acquired by a core allows the core to increase operating frequency by an increment represented by the tokens. Consequently, power usage is weighted toward heavily loaded cores and away from lightly loaded cores. Overall power usage of the CPU remains within a power budget. The method budgets power optimally to sustain turbo frequencies for longer durations by not allowing control units to increase frequency in absence of any useful high frequency benefiting workload.
