Q: Receiving multiple BLE Packets per one connection interval in Android My device information

*

*Nordic board :

*

*MTU size : 247.

*This board send notification multiple packets in one connection interval (Just counter value like 1,2,3,4...) at "Heart Rate Measurement".

*Android device :

*

*Version 5.0 and 6.0. (Using two device).

*communicate Bluetooth Low Energy(BLE) with board.

*board connect with my Android app MTU is setting 244.

*Application source is google sample project BluetoothLeGatt

*App send notification value at "Heart Rate Service" characteristic.

*Receive notification value at Gattcallback "onCharacteristicChanged()"

*Problem

*

*My Android app lost some packet.

I read this post. Maximizing BLE Throughput on iOS and Android. So I send E-mail this post author and I search another information for Android.
I found some similarly question. but that question answer was not work. Then I found one question what I want exactly. but this question have no answers. Android receiving multiple BLE packets per connection interval. Unfortunately I don't have any reply E-mail answer.
My question is how do I set Android BLE notification. (Not Nordic board setting)
(My question is same Android receiving multiple BLE packets per connection interval)
Under line is my sample code. at notification.

Edit_1
I test Nordic offical app in Google play store.
nRF Connect for Mobile
but this app miss packet too.
Edit_2
I found some problem too.
< Nordic board constant setting>

*

*MIN_CONN_INTERVAL : MSEC_TO_UNITS(40, UNIT_1_25_MS)

*MAX_CONN_INTERVAL : MSEC_TO_UNITS(40, UNIT_1_25_MS)

*SLAVE_LATENCY 0

*CONN_SUP_TIMEOUT MSEC_TO_UNITS(4000, UNIT_10_MS)

< Run in my Android app >

*

*skip requestMTU :  receive 20byte packet successful. (Data rate average is 2200byte/second in my app)

*requestMTU : I try so many MTU size (ex: 23(can small size), 40, 100, 255(target) ...) but lost some  packet (Data rate 8500 ~ 9500 byte/second in my app)
I wonder requestMTU and notification receive interrelation.

A: i have implemented a file transfer over LE on a nrf51422 and SD310 by using the Nordic UART Service. The android App is written in CPP by using Qt and the QtBluetooth library. Therefore, this answer my not really help you. But, i have taken some afford to achive a usable data rate. 1st, set the connection parameters to 7.5ms (min) and 15ms (max). 2nd, on the peripheral side, i send up to 7 packets (til the buffer is full). So the peripheral send up to 7 packets per connection event.
On the Android side, the charachteritic changed event arrive me frequently with a data size of 20 bytes (due to the maximum MTU size of 23, 3 bytes used by nordic uart service) and i read the data instantly.
Perhaps your mistake is the MTU size of 244. The default BLE MTU size is 23 (Core spec 4.1).

Aurora Expeditions has launched a new voyage to the remote northeast corner of Fiji aboard the luxury schooner Tui Tai.
Departing from the island of Vanua Levu, this 11-day voyage will explore the deserted beaches, pristine reefs and isolated outer islands of this pacific paradise known as the Pacific Cultural Triangle.
Tui Tai is the only luxury-adventure ship cruising this largely undiscovered region, which is recognised as the most culturally diverse in the country.
Kioa Island is the only island in Fiji whose people are of Polynesian origin. The Kioans are masters of handicrafts and fishing, and the snorkelling and diving sites here are considered the best in Fiji.
Rabi Island, inhabited by Micronesian people, is another of northern Fiji's hidden treasures, rich in history and natural beauty.
Other sites visited include the Bouma National Heritage Park on Taveuni Island, one of the country's best conservation and ecotourism success stories; and the tiny unspoiled atolls of the Ringgold Isles.
You can do as much or as little as you want on this luxury adventure. Tui Tai is equipped with mountain bikes, snorkelling gear, kayaks and scuba diving equipment, or you can simply relax and soak up the surrounds.
In true expedition style, the itinerary may vary to take maximum advantage of opportunities to view wildlife or explore new territory. Guided excursions and onboard lectures by experts will interpret the natural, cultural and historical highlights of the region.
Prices start from AU$6690 per person twin-share for a standard expedition cabin through to $12,990 for the ultimate two-storey Grand Stateroom. All cabins are air-conditioned and have private bathroom facilities. All meals are also included.
This inaugural 11-day voyage departs on 19 October 2009, and with space for just 22 passengers, is sure to sell out quickly.


Hiroko Kurihara, the organization's founder, explained that the collective was created for the express purpose of helping small, fledgling businesses — what she calls "nano-enterprises" — share their resources. Members include a winemaker, a shoemaker, and various practitioners of the sewn arts. They share a space (a former auto-glass warehouse); they use the same printer; they collaborate to host workshops and other events.
So when two Collective members, the proprietors of a mobile coffee cart called Art Is In Coffee, went through the mobile food vendor permitting process with the City of Oakland recently, Kurihara saw up close how challenging and costly that process can be — this despite Oakland having implemented an interim mobile food policy designed to be more permissive, at least to vendors willing to work within the so-called "food pod" framework. The various permits alone can cost around $1,000 a year — and that's on top of the cost of buying the cart/truck, outfitting it, and purchasing ingredients. For first-time entrepreneurs, who have no established following and little hope of obtaining conventional bank loans, it means the dream might be dashed before it ever gets off the ground.
So Kurihara came up with her rental program idea — which, to be clear, is still in its early planning phase. But the upshot is that the 25th Street Collective would purchase a cart, equip it, insure it, and obtain all the necessary permits. Vendors would pay the Collective to use the cart — for a couple of days a week, or maybe just for a few hours once a month.
Kurihara explained that the Collective in the process of exploring different options for funding the initial purchase of the cart, but that she hopes it can be up and running within the next six months. What also still needs to be hashed out: when, where, and the exact terms under which a rented cart would be able to operate legally, in compliance with Oakland's current mobile food regulations.
To start out, Kurihara said, the cart would be housed at the 25th Street Collective itself and could be used during First Fridays and other special events.
The main thing is that this cart rental program would provide a way for the financial burden of launching a new food business to be shared, rather than shouldered by one individual.
Esperanza Pallana, coordinator of the Oakland Food Policy Council, said the goal of the proposed program would be to "help new entrepreneurs pilot their business without going all in and going for broke." She likened it to Rockridge's Guest Chef (a restaurant where any aspiring chef can sign up for two-week stint in charge of the kitchen) — but for mobile food.
For those reasons, the Council has advocated expanding the opportunities available to food trucks and food carts in Oakland. It has also encouraged the City of Oakland to consider more economically feasible approaches to permitting — allowing multiple vendors to operate under a single permit, for example.
Pallana has been collaborating with the 25th Street Collective on their mobile food initiatives — and not just on their plans for the hoped-for cart. Pallana and the Collective have also organized a series of workshops designed to educate prospective mobile food vendors. About forty people attended a recent session, headed by Sherry Garza of the La Placita commercial kitchen and micro-business support center, covering the basic ins and outs of Oakland's permitting process.
And on Saturday, September 15, from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., Garza will lead a food safety certification class held at the Collective (477 25th St.). The cost for the class (and the certificate) is $150 — Pallana stressed that the food handler's certification lasts for five years, so it averages out to $2.50 a month.
Ultimately, Kurihara and Pallana hope their efforts will be more than just a rent-a-cart program and a few isolated workshops. Their long-term goal is to create an entire pilot program for new mobile food entrepreneurs — one in which the city or county could potentially make additional accommodations to ease the burden of up-front permitting fees.

« Bernardo Atxaga–SEVEN HOUSES IN FRANCE
Christobel Kent–THE DEAD SEASON »
Tan Twan Eng–THE GARDEN OF EVENING MISTS
Sep 7th, 2012 by mary
Note: This novel was WINNER of the Man Asian Prize in 2012. It was also SHORTLISTED for the Man Booker Prize for 2012.
"There is a goddess of Memory, Mnemosyne; but none of Forgetting. Yet there should be, as they are twin sisters, twin powers, and walk on either side of us, disputing for sovereignty over us and who we are, all the way until death." – Frontispiece, from "A Meander through Memory and Forgetting" by Richard Holmes.
Setting this unusual, aesthetically intriguing, and often exciting novel in Malaya/Malaysia, author Tan Twan Eng* provides insights into the Japanese Occupation of Malaya from 1941 – 1945, while recreating the horrors endured by the local population. At the same time, he also illustrates the highly formal aesthetic principles which underlie Japanese gardens, ukiyo-e (woodblock) prints, and the practice of horimono (literally "carving"), which is part of the long tradition of irezumi, Japanese tattooing. Amazing as it may sound, Tan succeeds in accomplishing an elegant blend of these seemingly incompatible subjects and themes while also appealing to the reader with characters who face personal tragedies and strive, somehow, to endure.
When the novel opens, in 1989 or 1990, Judge Teoh has just retired from her work on the Supreme Court in Kuala Lumpur. Only sixty-three, the judge, known familiarly as Yun Ling, has taken early retirement for reasons she does not initially divulge and has returned to the central highlands where she spent many years from her early teens until her late twenties. Though she has not been there for thirty-four years, she is seeking her spiritual home, a garden called Yangiri, which means "Evening Mists." Nakamura Aritomo, whom she knew many years ago, spent fourteen years developing this special garden according to the principles set forth in Sakuteiki, a book written in the mid- to late eleventh century and which he translated and published in his native Japan. The garden has not been tended for many years, and Aritomo's nearby house has been empty for the same length of time, but Yun Ling is determined to bring back Yangiri's original beauty: first, to honor the memory of Aritomo, whom she originally despised for his connections to Japan, where he was gardener to the Emperor, and second, to honor the memory of her sister, Yun Hong, who did not survive the work camp to which they were both consigned during the Occupation. She knows how hard the restoration work will be – she worked with Aritomo in creating the original masterpiece. She also plans to record all her recollections of the approximately ten years she worked with Aritomo. "I will dance to the music of words," she says, "one more time."
As the novel shifts back and forth chronologically, often quite suddenly, the horrors of the Occupation and the complex political dynamics of Malaya from 1940 – 1945 are revealed. Though the Japanese are the most powerful military force, as evidenced by their Occupation in 1941, they and the local population are also being challenged by the Chinese Communists, led by Mao; the Kuomintang, led by Chiang Kai-Shek; the homegrown Malay Communists; and an aboriginal culture, the Orang Asli, who resent the intrusions into the jungle and forests which they consider their home. Tan describes these groups and their sudden attacks on civilians, while also focu sing on the Japanese labor camp where Yun Ling and Yun Hong are imprisoned, and on the tortures visited upon the detainees, especially the women. Yun Ling is the only survivor of her camp, but how she survived remains a mystery for much of the novel. Other mysteries also keep the interest high. Questions arise as to whether Aritomo may have been involved in a group called "The Golden Lily," which stole treasures from Japanese-occupied countries and sent them to the Philippines, on behalf of the Emperor. Other questions arise about the Boer family of Magnus Pretorius, which owns the Majuba Tea Estate, located beside Yangiri, and whether someone there may have had connections with the Communists during the war.
While Yun Ling is planning her restoration of Yangiri, she agrees to allow Professor Yoshikawa Tatsuji to come from Japan to inspect and possibly photograph thirty-six, never-before-seen ukiyo-e prints made by Aritomo and bequeathed to her. Aritomo was apparently as skilled at ukiyo-e as he was with garden design, both art forms being governed by balance and harmony, and a sense of proportion and unity, the complete opposite of the warfare he and Yun Ling have both faced. An art form practiced secretly by Aritomo, one which is related to the ukiyo-e prints in its use of a "carving" tool, is that of the traditional Japanese tattoo. Tatsuji has seen only one tattoo by Aritomo, on the back of a friend, but as he is a collector of tattooed skin (!), which he sells and trades, he is anxious to find more examples of Aritomo's style.
Garden, Imperial Palace, where Aritomo had been gardener
Through hints and small details mentioned throughout the novel, Tan creates interest in Yun Ling's history, and the eventual discovery of how she becomes the sole survivor of her work camp in the mountains is one of the most dramatic sections of the novel. The author's depiction of Aritomo's character also develops slowly. Yun Ling had originally contacted him at the end of the war because she wanted to create a monument in memory of her sister and had decided to create a garden. Though Aritomo refuses to help her with this project, he does say that he will teach her what he knows so that she herself can create the garden she wants. The relationship they develop in the process of working together is revelatory of their different personalities, and as time passes, of their different ways of dealing with memories as they affect their pasts and futures.
Chrysanthemums, Ukiyo-e print by Hiroshige, one of the masters
The Garden of Evening Mists is an unusually ambitious novel, and its focus on Japanese art forms elevates it beyond the horrors of war. I did find the novel a bit difficult to get into, however. The beginning is slow to develop since the author must introduce a number of characters from three different time frames, all with names that are "foreign" and harder than usual for most English-speakers to remember. In addition, the author seems to be trying a bit too hard, stylistically, in the first fifty or so pages, paying more attention to the old adage of using "lively" verbs and verb forms (more per page here than I have come across in years) than he does to the more important one of "keeping it simple." Once the author gains traction with his story, however, the overwritten passages disappear, and the novel becomes the elegant story of two unusual people dealing with war and the past and, more importantly, finding solace in art, creativity, and abiding values.
*The order of names of characters in this book follows the pattern used in the characters' countries, with family name first, followed by personal names.
Photos, in order: The author's photo is from http://goodbooksguide.blogspot.com
Sakuteiki, written between the early 11th century and mid-eleventh century, is probably the oldest text in the world about gardening, from http://adligmary.blogspot.com
The photo of the Imperial Garden, where Aritomo was gardener, is from http://www.npointercos.jp
The ukiyo-e print of chrysanthemums is in a shape which suggests how easily it might have been adapted to a tattoo across the shoulders and upper back. http://www.wikipaintings.org

KEMPER GRANT "Jungle" - energetic artist drops vibrant and enticing album
Review by Adam Jones
KEMPER GRANT has released "Jungle," a vibrant collection of songs spanning many different styles. Grant is a multi-faceted artist with different influences ranging from disco to dirty hip-hop. It's a pleasant cacophony of sonic bliss when listening through the album; it's like dining on a delicious new groundbreaking dish created by America's Next Top Chef.
The album opens with "All Day All Night" (featuring Young Polo), which starts with a chilled-out synth followed by an industrial hip-hop drumbeat. The vocals come in - nice and bright, yet laid-back and vibey. The melodies are extremely catchy and it feels breezy.
The album moves on to "Blind" featuring Emily Auer. Again, this track feels good and calm, but this time there is a rhythmic guitar plucking off different parts of the melody. Emily Auer provides a fantastic accompaniment to this track with her bright and energetic presence.
My personal favorite off the album is "Uber Ride to Cry" - it's got extremely interesting rhythmic complexities and a little bit of a Michael Jackson vibe goin' on. The vocal melody is fun and catchy. The decision to make the vocal melody more upbeat makes it incredibly interesting to listen to since the lyrics reflection the opposing emotion.
The dynamic musical contrast Kemper Grant has created is very special. You don't want to miss this.

The value of my work depends on improving the results of the clients for whom I work. I aim to be measured on these results and rewarded accordingly, for example being paid for improving the quality or quantity of leads received.
Sometimes linking rewards to results is very difficult to achieve. For example, creating a marketing strategy may have enormous benefits but these may bear fruit in the long term and I may not be responsible for their implementation.
However, whenever possible, I agree to work with clients using the principles of results based marketing, as set out below.
Results based marketing ties the objectives and costs of marketing projects to measurable outcomes that make a significant difference to the profitability of the client.
It is easy to implement results based marketing in some cases. For example, a client is looking to increase sales by acquiring more leads. Currently 10% of leads are converted to sales each of which produces a £5000 margin. The marketing project is set up to generate new leads of the same quality. If the company converts these new leads at the normal rate then each one will add £500 to the overall margin. The company and consultant then agree to a payment per new lead as a percentage of the margin it should bring.
Please note that the above example is deliberately kept simple to illustrate the principle. In practise, incremental sales may produce higher or lower profit since the incremental costs may be vary and the payment per lead might be set on a sliding scale depending on the total number of leads generated. Also, the payment may vary depending on the quality of lead or the timescale in which they are brought in.
Most cases are more complex. For example, strategic marketing projects may have as one of their goals to determine potential impacts on profitability so the outcome of the project is more difficult to quantify. Also, in many cases, the consultancy will be only one factor leading to the required improvement in results. An example of this would be where the marketing project was to improve the company's messaging but where it would then be up to the management and sales force to use the messaging to increase sales.
For results based marketing to work, there must be commitment by both the consultant and the client.
The consultant is only paid if the desired results are achieved.
The client, for his or her part, needs to commit to the agreed goals, must provide the necessary resources from their side (e.g. information, support to implement, access to systems) and must have available measurements of current activity and results as a baseline from which improvements can be measured.
While pure results based marketing, which ties the fees for the project to increased profitability or growth, cannot always be implemented, it should always drive the way in which the project is set up.
Where uncertainties in terms of current measurements, outside variables or other client priorities, make a pure implementation infeasible, my policy is align the project to results as much as possible.
Discussing the goals and how to measure them as well as the marketing and other actions necessary to achieve them, is a key way to build the relationship between consultant and client, and to agree payment for the marketing skill and effort provided which both sides feel is fair.

        cd db-test
        mvn install

---
**Usage:**
* add dependency in *pom.xml* :

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.freebetbot.db-test</groupId>
            <artifactId>db-test</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>

* create test which requires *HSQLDB*. Example:

        package com.freebetbot.dbtest.independent;

        import com.freebetbot.dbtest.DbTest;
        import org.junit.Before;
        import org.junit.Test;

        public class IndependentTest extends DbTest {

            @Before
            public void setUp() {
                System.out.println("create required table structure");
                // example assumes existence of file: src/test/resources/create_test_tables.sql
                //executeSqlFile("src/test/resources/create_test_tables.sql");
            }

            @Test
            public void queryTest() {
                executeSqlQuery("create table mytable(data int);");
                executeSqlQuery("insert into mytable values(23); commit;");
                // ... do something with data
            }

            @Test
            public void yetAnotherTest() {
                // example assumes existence of file: src/test/resources/fill_test_tables.sql
                //executeSqlFile("src/test/resources/fill_test_tables.sql");
                // ... do something with data
            }
        }

* Inside of test code you can connect to HSQLDB in the way you like. Here is example of connection settings for *Hibernate* :

        <properties>
            ...
            <property name="connection.driver_class">org.hsqldb.jdbc.JDBCDriver</property>
            <property name="connection.url">jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost:12001/testdb</property>
            <property name="hibernate.connection.autocommit">true</property>
            <property name="connection.username">sa</property>
            <property name="connection.password"></property>
            ...
        </properties>

---
**Features:**
* default database name is **testdb**, but can be changed via constructor
* default server port is **12001**, but can be changed via constructor
* server stores data in memory. After test is finished, server is shutdown and all the data is lost.
* server is created with user **sa** and without password
* autocommit mode set to *false*. Include *"...; commit;"* in insert/update statements. Add *"set autocommit true;"* to sql files

Lost In Space Season 3? What's Known About The Final Season
What can we expect from season 3 of the series Lost In Space? What are the recent updates? Here is everything you should know about the cast plot and release date of the series Lost In Space Season 3.
Lost In Space Season 3: Release Date
Netflix has officially announced the third season of Lost in Space. Due to hit back in March 2021, Lost in Space was renewed for a third season. However, Netflix confirmed that the upcoming season would sadly be the Robinson family's last adventure. Netflix has yet to announce an official launch date, although the streaming platform said it expects the show to launch sometime in 2021.
source: The Cypress Chronicle
Production for the season is currently scheduled between September 9, 2020, and January 14, 2021. It is unclear if the coronavirus epidemic will delay production in season three, as many TV shows are now returning to work, even with far-reaching social measures. It is possible that the show will return to Vancouver, Canada, where it filmed its first season, as the city has many other returning shows and has a lower COVID-19 case than many locations in the US and Europe.
Lost In Space Season 3:
Based on the 1960s cult show of the same name, Lost in Space follows the Robinson family on a sick mission that leaves them stranded in the far reaches of the galaxy. At the quit of the second one season of Lost in Space, we noticed Robinson's own circle of relatives break up after being attacked through a collection of robots. Judy Robinson is left as the captain of another spaceship, Jupiter 2, to bring a group of children safely to Alpha Centauri, while Robinson's parents help the robots with their Scarecrow robot.
The upcoming season will also awaken hope behind the artificial signal, which runs from Judy and Jupiter 2 to Fortuna, a spaceship run by her biological father Grant Kelly. Viewers were led to believe at the end of season two that the villain Dr. Smith, who is actually June Harris, a minor criminal who assumed her sister's identity to lead him to Resolute, sacrificing herself to fight.

Very different from the overtone singing we usually think of when we hear "throat singing", this style of indigenous music focuses more on the give-and-take between two singers in dialogue. The cycling back and forth produces some really interesting textures. Check it out.
