Abstract: Candidate function data can include data for multiple candidate functions that may indicate whether insurance claims are likely to involve certain issues, such as comparative negligence issues. A real-time claim identifier can use the candidate function data to determine, in near real-time, if claim data for a new insurance claim submitted to an insurance company satisfies at least one of the candidate functions. If the claim data satisfies at least one of the candidate functions, the insurance claim can be assigned to a corresponding destination in the insurance company, such as a department that processes comparative negligence claims, for further processing.

A risk relationship identifier associated with the machine is identified, and the computer server may automatically and dynamically update a resource amount associated with the risk relationship identifier based on the operator behavior score, the machine operation score, the machine characteristics score, and the amount of utilization associated with the machine.

Abstract: Designs and arrangements for sublimation cells are provided, which enriches an inert carrier gas with organic vapor such that the partial pressure of the organic vapor is highly stable in time. Stability is achieved by controlling the local rates of evaporation along the solid-gas interface through one or more crucibles, thereby reducing the effects of greater headspace and lowering interfacial area as the source depletes. Local evaporation rates also can be controlled using either temperature distribution or convective flow fields.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for depositing organic material on a substrate are provided, in which one or more shield gas flows prevents contamination of the substrate by the chamber ambient.

Abstract: A method for partially publishing edits to a document is described. A first document including a first cell and a second cell is displayed on first user account on a first computing device and on a second user account. A second document including a linked version of the first cell and a linked version of the second cell is displayed. An edit of the first cell is received from the first user account and an edit of the second cell is received. In response to receiving an indication from the first user account that the edit of the first cell is to be published, the edit of the first cell is made to the linked version of the first cell, while the linked version of the second cell is unchanged so that the content of the linked version of the second cell no longer matches that of the second cell.
