Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for enhanced ship-based network connectivity using a content delivery network (CDN) edge server. An example method includes receiving user requests from user devices in wireless communication with a system, with the user requests being associated with applications executing on the user devices. An operating status associated with a satellite communication system is determined, the operation status being indicative of the satellite communication system having bandwidth and/or connectivity to route the user requests via a satellite network. Based on the operating status being negative, a first subset of the user requests is queued for transmission. A second subset of the user requests are responded to using an edge cache. Based on the operating status being positive, the user requests are transmitted via the satellite network to a shore-based system, the shore-based system routing the user requests to web applications associated with different functionality.

Abstract: A device including a stent structure or frame to which a sheet is attached for use in minimizing or preventing emboli, particles, and/or air bubbles from migrating into certain areas of the anatomy. The device can be placed in the blood stream in an area of the heart, such as the aortic arch, to direct particles toward the descending aorta rather than toward the brain. The sheet of the device can be a thin film material, which may include multiple fenestrations that are smaller in size than the particles that are to be filtered.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for smoothing data comprises adjusting data according to a first smoothing technique and selectively adjusting the data according to a second smoothing technique. The method and apparatus applies a first smoothing technique to a selected datum to adjust a value. The method and apparatus also compares preceding adjusted data to preceding raw data to generate a comparison result and may apply a second smoothing technique to the selected datum according to whether the comparison result meets a threshold. In addition, the method and apparatus of various embodiments may calculate a predicted value of the selected datum and apply another smoothing technique to the selected datum according to whether the predicted value meets a second threshold.
