Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based techniques are provided that predict a quality score for a product-related data structure associated with one or more products. One method comprises obtaining data for a given product-related data structure; evaluating a plurality of first features related to a customer account associated with the given product-related data structure using the obtained data; evaluating a plurality of second features related to the given product-related data structure using the obtained data; processing at least some of the first features and the second features using at least one model that provides a predicted quality score for the given product-related data structure; and applying one or more thresholds to the predicted quality score to determine an acceptance status related to the given product-related data structure. A weighting of the first features and the second features can be learned during a training phase.

Abstract: Embodiments of synchronizing the device clock in wound monitoring and/or therapy systems are disclosed. In some cases, a wound monitoring and/or therapy device can maintain a device clock, which can be set to a network time obtained from a network or internal time associated with a time set during configuration of the device. The device can selectively set the device clock to the network time in response to obtaining the network time and determining that the device clock is set to the internal time. In some cases, a remote computing device can receive a record transmitted by a wound monitoring and/or treatment device. The record can include a first set of operational parameters associated with monitoring and/or provision of treatment by the device and a first timestamp indicating a time of obtaining at least some operational parameters. The remote computing device can synchronize the first timestamp with network time.

Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, a method of minimizing timing error in a precise timing protocol system includes receiving an input 1PPS signal and a clock signal; outputting an output 1PPS signal a number of clock edges after receipt of the input 1PPS signal; adjusting the clock signal until the output 1PPS signal as jumped a clock cycle; and adjusting an offset to bring the output 1PPS signal to within a half clock period. In some embodiments, further adjustments can be made to the timestamp.

Abstract: A system and method for clock phase alignment at a plurality of line cards over a backplane of a communication system. Phase adjustments are continually made for the clock signals at the line cards by dynamically measuring the propagation delay between the timing device and each of the plurality of line cards and continuously communicating the appropriate phase adjustment to each of the plurality of line cards.

Abstract: A breathing apparatus includes a breathing gas container array comprising a plurality of separate containers adapted to contain pressurized breathing gas and a manifold in fluid connection with the containers. The manifold includes at least a first section that is movable relative to a second section of the manifold so that at least one container in fluid connection with the first section is movable relative to at least one other container in fluid connection with the second section. In a number of embodiments, each of the containers comprises a plurality of cells in fluid connection via a passageway.

Abstract: A punch for attachment to a brace of a braced die has a hollow cutting nose with a leading end for cutting a material to be punched and a trailing end opposite the leading end. A shaft extends from the trailing end of the nose and is sized to pass through an aperture in a brace. An upper retainer is joined to the shaft and has an upper retaining surface adapted to abut an upper surface of a brace. A lower retainer is joined to the shaft and has a lower retaining surface adapted to abut a lower surface of a brace. An internal waste evacuation chute extends from the interior of the hollow cutting nose and through the shaft for evacuating plugs of punched material from the nose.

Abstract: A steel rule cutting die is provided and includes a baseboard, and cutting knifes including an integral cross member having holes having a first diameter. The cutting knifes may be bent to form an enclosed cavity. Fasteners including a head and a shaft having second and third diameters, respectively, are provided, and are disposable within the hole in the cross member for connecting the cutting knife to the baseboard. Washers including a fourth outer diameter and a hole having a fifth diameter, are provided. The first diameter may be greater than the third diameter, the second diameter may be greater than the fifth diameter, and the fourth diameter may be greater than the first diameter, such that, when the washer is disposed under the fastener head, the washer prevents the head from entering the hole in the cross member, and facilitates translation of cavities parallel to the baseboard.
