  • Patent number: 11973827
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for migrating mailbox identities. In aspects, a system may receive one or more requests to perform tasks for migrating identities of a plurality of mailboxes included in a security group created at a source tenant to a plurality of mail users created at a target tenant that correspond to the plurality of mailboxes. Based on the one or more requests, the system may copy the identities to a data store associated with the target tenant, upload mapping data to the data store, and use that mapping data to map the identities copied to the data store to the corresponding plurality of mail users in the target tenant. For each of the identities mapped, the system may copy at least one or more attributes of the respective identity from the data store to the respective corresponding mail user in the target tenant.

  • Publication number: 20230044973
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus are disclosed for electrical power grid visualization. A computer-implemented method includes: obtaining power grid data including different temporal and spatially dependent characteristics of a power grid, the characteristics including a first characteristic, a second characteristic, and a third characteristic; and generating a graphical user interface (GUI) representing a visualization of the power grid data. The GUI includes a line-diagram representation of power lines in the power grid overlaid on a map of a geographic region in which the power grid is located, the line-diagram including a plurality of line segments, wherein attributes of each line segment represent the power grid data at a particular spatial location of the power grid.

  • Publication number: 20230003253
    Abstract: According to one example, a hydrostatic bearing includes a carriage, and a guide rail that, when combined with the carriage, provides for linear motion of the carriage with respect to the guide rail. The hydrostatic bearing is configured to transfer forces between the carriage and the guide rail without mechanical contact between the carriage and the guide rail by supplying pressurized, incompressible fluid to bearing pockets in the carriage. Each of the bearing pockets is enclosed by a bearing land of a bearing pad, and the bearing pad comprises the general shape of a parallelogram, a trapezoid, an arrow, or any other shape where the edges are generally not orthogonal to the direction of motion.

  • Publication number: 20140142925
    Abstract: An approach automated processing for audio or other data series or signals, which is applicable where little or no transcribed training data is available, makes uses identification of self-organizing units (SOUs) in conjunction with automated creation of, or augmentation of an existing dictionary, with “pseudo-words” or tokens represented in terms of the SOUs. In some examples, the dictionary is iteratively updated (e.g., augmented) during training, optionally with updating of models of the SOUs during the iteration.

  • Patent number: 5826579
    Abstract: A remote-controlled mandibular positioner for conveniently and precisely positioning the mandible during a sleep center or in-hospital study of patients who are candidates for mandibular positioner therapy. The remote-controlled mandibular positioner is used during sleep to perform a therapeutic titration study during full polysomnographic monitoring to determine the mandible position effective in treating obstructive sleep apnea. During the titration study, the mandible is advanced by a technician using the remote-controlled mandibular positioner until all apneas and hypopneas are eliminated. The titration study determines whether a mandibular positioner will be effective in treating a particular patient, and if so, the degree of mandibular ventral displacement required for effective treatment of obstructive sleep apnea.

  • Patent number: 5409017
    Abstract: A mandible repositioning appliance formed by an upper bite block and a lower bite block interconnected by an adjustable mechanism including a posterior section connected to the rear portion of the upper bite block and an anterior section connected to the front portion of the lower bite block and an adjustable interconnection between the anterior and posterior sections. Preferably the adjustable interconnection will include a double thread element rotation of which changes the relative positions of the posterior and interior sections axially of the appliance and abutments to define each incremental rotation of the element. The comfort of the wearer is further improved by using a heat sensitive material in the tooth retention sections and by permitting limited relative lateral movement between the bite blocks.
