  • Patent number: 11222663
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of tape drives, tape transport, tape heads and tape head suspension. More particularly, the present invention is related to magnetic tape data storage and tape recorders that include components designed to minimize or eliminate head-to-tape contact to reduce or eliminate wear and contamination of tape drive heads. Methods and apparatus of the present invention may dynamically control the head-to-media spacing by moving locations of magnetic heads relative to a tape. Such apparatus may include components designed to minimize magnetic spacing. This may be accomplished using actuators that move the magnetic heads, that move the tape, or that move both the magnetic heads and the tape. This may include supporting a back surface of the tape. Alternatively, or additionally, the movement of the tape past the magnetic heads may be performed using mechanisms that contact and drive the back surface of the tape.

  • Patent number: 11080235
    Abstract: A system enables tool to process remote log files as if the log files were located locally. The system relies on technology, such a file system in user space (FUSE), to add log file search results to the local file system. In some embodiments, the log file search results are associated with virtual files in the local file system. A remote data store system communicates with the local system to provide the search results in response to a search query.

  • Patent number: 10977738
    Abstract: In an illustrative embodiment, systems and methods for monitoring insurance claims include identifying, based on predetermined monitoring frequency, insurance claims identified for vulnerability detection processing. Vulnerability detection features may be extracted from data files of the claims, which provide an indication of claim handling deficiencies that can cause claim leakage. A trained vulnerability detection data model can be used to detect claim handling vulnerabilities within the extracted vulnerability detection features where each of the vulnerabilities may include a likelihood of the vulnerability resulting in claim leakage. The vulnerability detection data model may be trained with a data set customized to a respective insurance provider for each claim. Vulnerability scores indicating an overall likelihood of claim leakage can be calculated for the claims based on the detected claim handling vulnerabilities.

  • Patent number: 10956652
    Abstract: Applications may be created and registered to an online ecosystem and then execute within individual web applications such as productivity applications, communication applications, collaboration applications, and so on. These non-native applications may be enabled to interact with files and provide custom experiences for a user. The applications may also be enabled to interact with additional information discovered about the user within the ecosystem to provide custom experiences. The applications may further be enabled to create custom workflows to allow users to accomplish new tasks.

  • Publication number: 20210065858
    Abstract: A method for generating a graphical performance display, including: receiving performance measure data; generating a graphical rectangular plot, having a first side indicating a prevalence value, a second side indicating a sensitivity value, and third side indicating a specificity value, wherein the second and third sides are opposite one another and a fourth side is opposite the first side; drawing a prevalence line perpendicular to the first side between the first side and the fourth side based upon a prevalence value in the performance measure data; drawing a sensitivity line perpendicular to the second side between the second side and the prevalence line based upon a sensitivity value in the performance measure data; and drawing a specificity line perpendicular to the third side between the third side and the prevalence line based upon a sensitivity value in the performance measure data.

  • Publication number: 20210035746
    Abstract: A mesoporous, nanocrystalline, metal oxide construct particularly suited for capacitive energy storage that has an architecture with short diffusion path lengths and large surface areas and a method for production are provided. Energy density is substantially increased without compromising the capacitive charge storage kinetics and electrode demonstrates long term cycling stability. Charge storage devices with electrodes using the construct can use three different charge storage mechanisms immersed in an electrolyte: (1) cations can be stored in a thin double layer at the electrode/electrolyte interface (non-faradaic mechanism); (2) cations can interact with the bulk of an electroactive material which then undergoes a redox reaction or phase change, as in conventional batteries (faradaic mechanism); or (3) cations can electrochemically adsorb onto the surface of a material through charge transfer processes (faradaic mechanism).

  • Patent number: 10884475
    Abstract: A portable electronic device determines a battery available power for the device's battery and manages device power usage based upon the battery available power. The device includes a battery and a controller. The controller is configured to receive a first voltage value for the battery at a first time, a first current value for the battery, a second voltage value for the battery at a second time, and a second current value for the battery. It is determined that a time difference between the first time and the second time exceeds a predetermined time threshold. An estimated resistance of the battery is determined based at least on a first difference between the first current value and the second current value and a second difference between the first voltage value and the second voltage value. Real-time power usage of the device is controlled based on the estimated resistance of the battery.
