    Abstract: A service scheduling system (1) is configured to retrieve schedule information from a time-management system (2) of a service provider, whereat the schedule information assigns service intervals offered by the service provider to a plurality of clients. The service scheduling system (1) comprises a detector (13) configured to detect an event indicating that a client cannot be served in a first service interval assigned to said client according to the schedule information. The service scheduling system (1) further comprises a transmitter configured to transmit, to a communication terminal (3′) of a further client, information specifying a second service interval which is at least partly overlapping the first service interval, and a receiver configured to receive, from the communication terminal (3′) of the further client, acknowledgment information indicating that the further client agrees to get served in the second service interval.

    Abstract: An optical analog to digital converter including a light source, a driver, an array of single photon avalanche diodes, and control circuitry. The light source emits photons. The driver receives an analog input signal and to drive the light source on the basis of the analog input signal. The array of single photon avalanche diodes detects the photons provided by the light source. The control circuitry is coupled to the array of single photon avalanche diodes and activates the array of single photon avalanche diodes for a predetermined time interval such that the array of single photon avalanche diodes detects the photons provided by the light source during the predetermined time interval. The control circuitry further determines the number of single photon avalanche diodes of the array of single photon avalanche diodes which detected a photon during the predetermined time interval.
