The frame system also includes a back plate configured for insertion into the center opening. The back plate includes a plurality of locking ribs for reception within the plurality of recesses to generate a snap-fit attachment of the back plate to the hollow outer frame element.

Abstract: Methods and systems for image analysis are provided, and in particular for identifying a set of base-calling locations in a flow cell for DNA sequencing. These include capturing flow cell images after each sequencing step performed on the flow cell, and identifying candidate cluster centers in at least one of the flow cell images. Intensities are determined for each candidate cluster center in a set of flow cell images. Purities are determined for each candidate cluster center based on the intensities. Each candidate cluster center with a purity greater than the purity of the surrounding candidate cluster centers within a distance threshold is added to a template set of base-calling locations.

Abstract: A system for mounting a covering (e.g., a fabric material) upon a frame is constructed from a plurality of elongated frame parts. Each frame part has two mitered ends and a channel formed therein. The related mounting method includes the steps of: (a) using a jig to hold the fabric material against the frame; (b) inserting a plurality of retaining splines within respective channels so as to capture the fabric material within the channels between one retaining spline and a corresponding floor of the channel, whereby a plurality of corner pleats are formed; and (c) using a tool to invert each corner pleat into a corner joint formed between respective adjacent frame parts so as to form an internal fold at each corner of the frame.

Abstract: A system for traversing an opening of a construction element the system including a elongated housing with two extendable elements configured to reside at least partially within the housing. The extendable elements may extend beyond the housing and may include flanges or ledges which may engage the ends of a construction element, which may be a wall, and thus allow the system to traverse the opening of a construction element, such as a window or door. The system may allow a user to easily manipulate the system to fit a plurality of openings and reuse the system a countless number of times.

Abstract: In one aspect, a system for controlled temporal extraction of ingredients of a pharmaceutical dosage form is disclosed, which comprises at least one reservoir for storing a fluid comprising a solvent, a cell having at least one inlet port in fluid communication with said reservoir for receiving a flow of the fluid from the reservoir and an outlet port through which fluid can exit the cell, where the cell is configured to receive a pharmaceutical dosage form. The system can further include an in-line heater disposed in proximity of the inlet port of the cell for heating the fluid to an elevated temperature prior to entry thereof into the cell, and a pump for causing fluid circulation between said reservoir and said cell.

Abstract: An apparatus, computer-readable medium, and computer-implemented method to provide data services over a decentralized network in accordance with a smart contract. Node computing platforms of the decentralized network include a node module to execute the network protocol and a router module to route service data and proofs thereof. The disclosed architecture and method fully leverage the advantages of decentralized networks to transform data services into decentralized commodities that can be offered, sold, provided and managed in a decentralized manner.

Abstract: A frame assembly includes a frame base and a rear panel including a plurality of side walls that are configured to be received within a plurality of side walls of the frame base. Along an external surface of each side wall of the rear panel there is at least one locking tab that is configured for reception within one corresponding locking opening of the frame base when the rear panel is inserted into the frame base so as couple the rear panel to the frame base in a snap-fitting manner and permit a canvas substrate to be captured therebetween for holding the canvas substrate across a front face of the frame base.
