Methods and devices related to sharing data between computing devices are described. In an example, a method can include writing a first portion of data to a DRAM on a first computing device, receiving, via a radio of the first computing device, first signaling representing a request to share the first portion of data via a first processing resource of the first computing device with a second processing resource of a second computing device, determining at the first processing resource of the first computing device to share the first portion of data with the second processing resource of the second computing device based on at least one of: a command from a user or data representing user settings stored in non-volatile memory on the first computing device, and transmitting, via the radio of the first computing device, second signaling comprising the first portion of data to the second processing resource of the second computing device.

Sharing data between computing devices

Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) have been proven to exhibit antioxidant properties attributed to its surface oxidation states (Ce4+ to Ce3+ and vice versa) mediated at the oxygen vacancies on the surface of CNPs. Different anions in precursor cerium salts were used to prepare CNPs resulting in disclosed CNPs with varying physicochemical properties such as dispersion stability, hydrodynamic size, and the signature surface chemistry. The antioxidant catalytic activity and oxidation potentials of different CNPs have been significantly altered with the change of anions in the precursor salts. For one, CNPs prepared using precursor salts containing NOand Clions exhibited increased antioxidant activity than previously thought possible. The change in oxidation potentials of CNPs with the change in concentration of the nitrate and chloride ions indicates the disclosed CNP's have different surface chemistry and antioxidant properties. These compositions and methods of their synthesis are disclosed.

Cerium oxide nanoparticle compositions and methods

Apparatuses, machine-readable media, and methods related to hazard indicators are described. Determining whether hazards exists and the location of a hazard can be helpful when moving about. Computing devices (e.g., mobile devices and/or cloud-based computers) can be configured to run an application (e.g., a hazard indication tool) to determine that a hazard exists and indicate to a user of a computing device that the hazard exists according to examples of the present disclosure. A user can carry a mobile device with them while they are walking or running. The mobile device can include a number of sensors (e.g., image sensors, microphones, infrared (IR) sensors, ultrasonic sensors, location sensors) to generate data that can be used by a hazard indication tool to determine if a hazard exists. The hazard indication tool can output a warning that indicates to a user that a hazard exists, an alternate route to avoid the hazard, and/or generate a hazard library that other users can use to obtain information about hazards.

Systems, devices, and methods related to generating instructive actions based on categorization of input data are described. In an example, a method can include receiving, from an edge device and at a processing resource of a device, a plurality of input data associated with a plurality of sources communicatively coupled to the edge device and categorizing each piece of the plurality of input data as private or public based on an associated one of the plurality of sources. The categorizing can include writing each piece of data with metadata that indicates that it is private or public and/or selecting a first data path indicated as private or a second data path indicated as public. The method can include writing each piece of the plurality of input data categorized as private to a dedicated buffer or a dedicated address space of a memory resource.

Instructive actions based on categorization of input data

Methods, devices, and systems related to performing an operation responsive to a voice call are described. In an example, a method can include storing data representing a number of contact lists on a memory of a first computing device, wherein the data representing the number of contact lists includes data representing credentials of a number of contacts on the number of contact lists, receiving data representing a voice call and credentials of a second computing device at the first computing device, comparing the data representing the credentials of the second computing device with the data representing the credentials of the number of contacts on the number of contact lists to determine which contact list the second computing device is included in, and performing an operation at the first computing device at least partially based on which contact list the second computing device is included in.

Performing an operation responsive to a voice call

A chemical-mechanical polishing system includes a rotatable head for mounting a wafer thereto, a polishing pad mounted to a rotatable platen, and a fluid dispenser for dispensing a fluid onto a surface of the polishing pad. The polishing pad includes an array of piezoelectric actuators. The chemical-mechanical polishing system includes a controller operably coupled to each piezoelectric actuator. The controller measures voltages output by the piezoelectric actuators of the array, determines, qualitatively, a topography of the wafer surface based on the measured voltages, and adjusts an aggressiveness of at least one portion of the polishing pad based on the determined topography. The controller adjusts the aggressiveness by inducing the piezoelectric effect or reverse piezoelectric effect in one or more piezoelectric actuators to adjust a surface topography of the polishing pad.

Polishing system, polishing pad, and related methods

Methods and apparatuses associated with determining a location of a mobile device are described. Examples can include receiving, at a mobile device in response to a triggering event, signaling that indicates the mobile device is in an unauthorized location, in possession of an unauthorized user, or both. Examples can include prompting an input representative of authorized user verification and enabling one or more circuits or power supplies of the mobile device based at least in part on determining that a value of the input satisfies. In response and based at least in part on determining that the value of the input fails to satisfy the threshold, examples can include capturing environmental data and location data associated with the mobile device and communicating the environmental data and location data and a location determination to an authorized user. In some examples, a mobile device can be deactivated responsive to unconfirmed authorized verification.

Mobile device location determination

Methods and devices related to a single message management platform are described. In an example, a method can include receiving a first message at a first processing resource via a first application, receiving a second message at the first processing resource via a second application, receiving the first message and the second message at a memory, storing the first message and the second message in the memory, receiving a command to open a single message management platform, receiving the first message and the second message at the single message management platform, and organizing the first message and the second message at the single message management platform.

Single message management platform

Methods of protecting skin of a mammal by application of silk-derived compositions useful for treating or preventing a wide variety of skin conditions. Silk solutions and silk mats are prepared and applied to the skin surface. The silk compositions may be self-adhesive or sutured to cover a wound or area of skin exposed to physical stresses and strains, thereby preventing a wound and/or promoting wound healing.
