Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method, device and product for managing a plurality of users of an application system. According to example implementations of the present disclosure, a method is provided for managing a plurality of users of an application system. In the method, a group of users matching a search keyword from a requester user are determined among the plurality of users, the search keyword comprising at least one part of an identifier of a desired user. A requester layer of the requester user is determined in a tree structure comprising hierarchical relations among the plurality of users. A group of layers of the group of users are determined in the tree structure, respectively. The group of users are sorted based on the requester layer and the group of layers. With example implementations of the present disclosure, a user which the requester user is looking for may be sorted at a top place so as to be selected by the requester user.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for injection and retraction of a fluid. The system includes a switch configured to be activated, wherein activation of the switch activates an electrical control system. The system further includes a linear actuator that interfaces with the electrical control system. The electrical control system causes the linear actuator to depress a plunger, keep the plunger depressed for a predetermined time, and retract the plunger after the predetermined time. The system further includes a fluid reservoir engageable with the plunger, wherein the depression of the plunger causes fluid to be injected from the fluid reservoir into a connector and the retraction of the plunger causes fluid to be retracted into the fluid reservoir and out of the connector.

Abstract: An electronic system may be configured to determine if a first-type device ID and a second-type device ID both identify a same device. To do so, the electronic system may preliminarily group a particular first-type ID with a particular second-type ID based on matching time slots and network addresses. Individual scores for each of the preliminary groups may be determined based on cardinalities associated with the time slots. Combined scores may then be determined for groups having the same first-type device ID and second-type device ID. A final analysis may be performed to confirm, with a sufficient level of confidence, whether first-type device IDs and second-type device IDs included in the preliminary groups identify the same device.
