  • Publication number: 20240089718
    Abstract: A Method and System for coordinating help to an individual experiencing a medical emergency from their designated Emergency Care Team (ECT). The location of the Person in Distress (PID) and all of their emergency contacts is determined. A real time audio video conference is created which enables the PID and all members of the ECT to communicate. Real time vital signs from the PID's wearable health monitor is streamed to all participants. The PID's medical history is temporarily unlocked and provided on demand to the ECT members. The ECT members participate as available with no single person or call center coordinating this effort. Additional participants may be added to the conference at the discretion of the ECT members including, but not limited to the E911 operator for the PID's locale, the PID's medical providers, other individuals from the PID's contact list, or other individuals as may be deemed important to the response.

  • Patent number: 11764949
    Abstract: Access to Electronic Health Records (EHR) is protected by law in many countries, including the US through HIPAA. During an emergency medical situation however, access to this information by the Emergency Care Team (ECT) may save the life of the Person In Distress (PID). The present invention describes a system and method for managing the access to EHRs based on the membership in a pre-established ECT and the communication status of the ECT Members during an Emergency Event. This invention includes a method of Encryption key exchange to ensure EHRs are only shared with authorized participants during the emergency event. This system and method further provides for the secure and immutable recording of the individuals who accessed the EHRs during this emergency event.

  • Patent number: 11296998
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for identifying computing resources specified by a representation of a computing service. In some implementations, a request to analyze a computing service provided via a computing environment may be received. The computing service may have an activated state in which the computing service is available for use and a deactivated state in which the computing service is not available for use. The computing environment may comprise a plurality of computing resources each defining a variable unit of computing functionality within the computing environment. Each computing resource may be associated with a respective parameter corresponding with a respective parameter value that specifies a level of the variable unit of computing functionality defined by the computing resource. The computing service may be represented by a metadata model comprising a plurality of nodes, at least some of which specify a respective one or more of the parameter values.

  • Patent number: 9325632
    Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for enabling collaboration across tenants in a multi-tenant environment using single sign-on (SSO) authentication/authorization. Various examples provide for creating a user account and provisioning a subscription to a user (e.g., to enable single sign-on authentication/authorization). The user is allowed to access services (e.g., collaborative services) in a multi-tenant environment by utilizing a subscription authorization of the user without prompting the user to authenticate by logging-in again (that is, without prompting the user to log-in again after the user has already logged-in and been authenticated for a given session). Other examples provide for mapping webspaces through URL hosts where each organization (that is, tenant) has its own set of namespace(s).

  • Patent number: 9037722
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for provisioning computing services. In some implementations, a plurality of computing resources available within a computing environment are identified. The plurality of computing resources may be capable of being used to provide computing services via the computing environment. Each of the computing resources may comprise a respective unit of computing functionality available within the computing environment. A plurality of dependency relationships among the computing resources may be identified. Based on the identified dependency relationships, a first one or more of the computing resources may be selected for inclusion in a license definition. A license conforming to the license definition may provide an entity with access to the computing functionality associated with the first one or more computing resources.

  • Patent number: 8904011
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for creating a representation of dependency relationships between computing resources within a computing environment. In some implementations, one or more sources for dependency analysis may be identified. Each source may be capable of being accessed to provide computing functionality via the computing environment. Each source may include one or more references to a respective one or more computing resources. Each computing resource may define a unit of the computing functionality available within the computing environment. A plurality of dependency relationships may be identified based on the one or more sources. A dependency relationship representation may be created based on the identified dependency relationships.

  • Patent number: 8775946
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for providing a user interface component. In some implementations, a request for the user interface component may be received at a computing device. The user interface component may have a default visual presentation. A branding override may be selected from a plurality of available branding overrides. The branding override may define a modification to the default visual presentation of the user interface component. The branding override may be selected based on one or more contextual variables associated with the request for the user interface component. The user interface component may be modified in accordance with the selected branding override. The user interface component may be displayed on a display device.
