Systems and methods for mobile application traffic optimization are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a distributed proxy and cache system, including, a local proxy on a mobile device for intercepting a data request made via a mobile device, and a proxy server coupled to the mobile device and a content server to which the data request is directed. In one embodiment, the local proxy can forward the data request to the proxy server for transmission to the content server for a response to the data request. In addition, the proxy server sends the data request to the content server independent of activities on the local proxy and notifies the local proxy when changed or different content on the content server is detected for the data request. One embodiment of the distributed proxy and cache system further includes a cache shared between the local proxy and the proxy server and the component on the local proxy and is queried for a locally stored response to the data request prior to the data request being forwarded on to the proxy server.

Systems and methods for mobile network traffic coordination across multiple applications are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a distributed proxy and cache system, including, a local proxy on a mobile device for intercepting a data request made via a mobile device, and a proxy server coupled to the mobile device and a content server to which the data request is directed. One embodiment includes, delaying transfer of a first data transfer request initiated by a first application until another data transfer request initiated by a second application is detected on the mobile device and transferring, the first data transfer request of the first application and the other data transfer request of the second application a single transfer operation over the network.

The invention relates to a torque support for drives riding on shaft journals, in particular for converter drives, comprising a transmission housing supported on a shaft journal to be driven, wherein the transmission housing encloses a transmission. The torque support comprises at least two push rods, which are preferably arranged symmetrically with respect to the rotational axis of the shaft journal to be driven and which are each fastened to the transmission housing at the upper ends of the push rods. The lower ends of the push rods are each connected to a torsion shaft by means of a respective lever. The torsion shaft is fastened to a foundation by means of torsion shaft bearings. At least one damping device is present, which acts on at least one of the levers and on the foundation, or acts on the transmission housing and on the foundation, or acts on at least one lever extension of a lever and on the transmission housing and is arranged parallel to the push rod acting on said lever.

The invention relates to the field of human necessities, and specifically to hardware for introducing people, in particular people of the opposite sex, searching for a life partner or for a relationship. The system comprises a device (1) for writing and reading personal characteristics, a characteristics memory unit (2), a characteristics coding unit (3), a transmitter (4), a "receive/transmit" switch (5), an antenna unit (6), a receiver (7), a characteristics decoding unit (8), and an information display unit (9). The system for introducing users to each other is rendered more simple and effective.

The invention relates to a crusher comprising two adjacent crusher rotors (4, 5) with crusher teeth (6, 7) on their circumferences, counterblade structures (8, 9) locating on side walls (3) of the crusher frame (1) and cooperating with said crusher teeth, and screen sets (10, 11) beneath each crusher rotor so as to screen the material crushed to a given particle size out of the crusher. The first crusher rotor (4) is for coarse crushing and the second crusher rotor (5) is for fine crushing, and consequently they are provided with crusher teeth (6, 7) of different sizes, and correspondingly, different counter- blade structures (8, 9) are provided with counterblades of different sizes, mesh sizes in the screen sets (10, 11) beneath each crusher rotor being selected with the intention to produce a product in accordance with the requirement set for the final particle size.

This invention relates to a clinker substitute, methods for producing the same, the use thereof, construction materials such as cement, mortar and concrete containing the clinker substitute, and methods for producing these construction materials.

The invention relates to a continuous digester for producing pulp from comminuted cellulosic material. The digester has a cone diverter on a bottom scraper arranged in the bottom of the digester for assisting in out feed of pulp produced, the cone diverter of the bottom scraper having an upper inclined surface of the cone diverter with an inclination angle in the range 30+10 degrees in relation to the vertical. In order to improve washing performance in the bottom of the digester, especially for overloaded digesters, the upper inclined surface is equipped with draining apertures in fluid communication with a liquid receiving chamber inside the cone diverter, said10 liquid receiving chamber connected via a drainage channel to the exterior of said vessel.

A multi-segment sediment pore water sampler is provided at the same axis with several sampling units (1) arranged in a straight line, and each sampling unit (1) is spaced out from each other so that the water body can not be exchanged among each sampling unit (1). The sampler can be used at the same position to collect samples at different depth, which is convenient for sampling the organic pollutant in the sediment pore water body at different depth according to different time resolution. The height of each sampling unit (1) of the sampler is variable and several sampling units (1) have heights different from each other, which is convenient for collector to arrange the heights of the sampling units (1) according to the time resolution required by the actual circumstance of collection spot. The utilization of the sampler is of advantage to improve the time resolution of pollutant water body sampling and the multi-segment sediment pore water sampler can be used in the field of pollutant water body sampling.
