The present invention discloses the use of spheroidal substances in the preparation of intravenous formulations, relating to the field of biomedicine. The invention provides intravenous administration of MSC spheroids or spheroidal substances formed from biomaterials as a novel in vivo delivery approach. Compared with intravenous administration of dispersed MSCs, intravenous administration of MSC spheroids reduces pulmonary retention of MSCs and prolongs their residence time and viability in the bloodstream and peripheral tissues, thereby potentially improving therapeutic efficacy for autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, and tissue or organ injuries. In addition, intravenous administration of biomaterial spheroids is safe. Such spheroids can carry drugs, bioactive molecules, or detection molecules for the diagnosis and treatment of animal disease models or patients. Compared with monomeric molecules, they are more effective and longer-lasting, and can also carry multiple molecules to produce synergistic effects. Accordingly, the present invention provides a novel route of use and research method for the clinical application of cells and biomaterials.

The present invention relates to the field of data trading, and discloses a power data element resource optimal scheduling method that accounts for differences in data value. The method includes establishing a data element characteristic evaluation model and a comprehensive data resource value evaluation model for power data element resource aggregators, and, for power data element resource aggregators with differentiated data values, establishing a resource aggregation optimal scheduling model for a data center. In certain embodiments of the invention, the scheduling method can effectively encourage data aggregators to participate in the data center’s resource scheduling. On the one hand, the data center designs resource scheduling instructions for data aggregators with different data element values, thereby scheduling a greater amount of data element resources with high data value. On the other hand, by enabling data aggregators to obtain differentiated utilities, data aggregators with high data value are more willing to accept the resource scheduling of the data center.

This invention discloses a distribution system planning method for addressing the seasonal imbalance and year‑on‑year intensification of heatwaves, and belongs to the field of power system planning and operation optimization. The method first collects multi‑year hourly meteorological data for a target city together with basic distribution system data, and generates multi‑time‑scale heatwave meteorological trajectories that capture both short‑term seasonal fluctuations and long‑term intensification trends. It then uses a source‑load meteorological sensitivity mapping to convert meteorological variables into a building cooling load amplification factor and a green power output correction factor, thereby obtaining the net nodal injection power. A heatwave source‑load imbalance risk index is calculated and used to screen critical heatwave scenarios, on the basis of which a nodal net injection power envelope and a heatwave disturbance budget are constructed to form a compact composite uncertainty set. A progressive two‑stage robust planning model is then established and solved. The invention reduces the computational complexity associated with high‑dimensional heatwave scenarios and improves the planning adaptability, operational security, and engineering feasibility of urban distribution systems under heatwave conditions.

The present invention discloses a temperature-compensated quartz crystal oscillator and an implementation method thereof. An auxiliary amplifier is used to start the crystal oscillator and output a first clock signal, and a load capacitor array outputs a second clock signal based on the first clock signal. A primary delay-locked loop generates multiple delay signals and a control voltage signal according to the second clock signal. A pulse injection module injects energy into the crystal oscillator according to the delay signals. A digitization module and a lookup module sequentially convert the control voltage signal into a digital signal and a clock selection signal. A modulation module generates a modulation signal based on the delay signals and the clock selection signal. The load capacitor array then adjusts the capacitor connection time of the crystal oscillator according to the modulation signal. By improving the modulation method of the load capacitor array, the invention reduces Allan variance, and by reusing circuits and optimizing the conversion process of temperature information, it reduces area and power consumption. It can be widely applied in the technical field of crystal oscillators.

The present invention relates to the technical field of offline resource scheduling, and in particular to a dynamic scheduling method and system for multidimensional resources in an offline mixed-deployment environment. In the present invention, upon submission of a new job, a screening process is first performed to filter out nodes that meet the requirements. Then, based on the variation in each node’s interference health value, each node performs dynamic resource adjustment and re‑migration of offline jobs. Next, the current resource monitoring indicators of each node are obtained and the historical monitoring data is maintained. At preset time intervals, the resource monitoring indicators of each node are continuously acquired, and the current interference health value of each node is thereby calculated. Finally, based on the interference health values of the nodes, a score is assigned to each node, and the node with the highest score is selected as the scheduling node, to which the new job is dispatched. By monitoring resource data indicators and adopting a strategy of dynamic resource adjustment after initial scheduling followed by re‑migration, the present invention ensures that the performance of online jobs is not affected in mixed‑deployment scenarios.

This application discloses a sensor interface including a discrete-time amplifier, belonging to the technical field of sensor interface circuits. The sensor interface comprises: a first-stage amplification circuit, a second-stage amplification circuit, a noise cancellation network including multiple noise storage capacitors, and a buffer circuit. The second-stage amplification circuit is connected to the corresponding port of the first-stage amplification circuit, and the buffer circuit is connected to the corresponding port of the second-stage amplification circuit through the noise storage capacitors. The sensor interface receives a differential input voltage through the first-stage amplification circuit to generate a first differential signal. After being amplified by the second-stage amplification circuit, the signal is transferred via the noise storage capacitors to the buffer circuit, which outputs a differential output voltage. In this way, the interface effectively amplifies the signal while cancelling sampling noise, thereby breaking the dependence of the discrete-time amplifier’s noise on the switching frequency and capacitor size, and at the same time reducing the switching frequency and capacitor size. This optimizes the trade-off between current and noise efficiency factor, as well as between power consumption and power efficiency factor.
