  • Patent number: 11966397
    Abstract: A graph database for outbreak tracking and management is disclosed. In an example embodiment, an outbreak management system includes a memory device storing instructions that define a graph database for disease outbreak tracking. The instructions specify for a given host that a host node is created and an episode node is connected to the host node via a ‘case’ link. The episode node is associated with episode parameters that are related to a disease classification of the host. In addition, the instructions specify that an outbreak node is connected to the episode node via a ‘part of’ link to indicate that the host has become part of an outbreak of the disease. The outbreak node is connected to a definition node via a ‘defined as’ link. The definition node specifies disease parameters of the disease that is related to the outbreak node.

  • Publication number: 20220336110
    Abstract: A graph database for outbreak tracking and management is disclosed. In an example, an outbreak management system includes a memory device storing instructions that define a graph database for disease outbreak tracking. The instructions specify, for a given host, that a host node is created and an episode node is connected to the host node via a ‘case’ link. Additionally, the instructions specify that a rule node is connected to the episode node via a ‘found’ link. The rule node is associated with a workflow, an assignment, and a notification, and includes at least one defined condition. If a condition is satisfied for a case, the rule node is linked to the episode node. This leakage causes the workflow to be added for the episode node, the episode node to be assigned to an individual or a team, and a notification to be generated regarding an association with the rule.

The instructions specify for a given host that a host node is created and an episode node is connected to the host node via a ‘case’ link. The episode node is associated with episode parameters that are related to a disease classification of the host. In addition, the instructions specify that an outbreak node is connected to the episode node via a ‘part of’ link to indicate that the host has become part of an outbreak of the disease. The outbreak node is connected to a definition node via a ‘defined as’ link. The definition node specifies disease parameters of the disease that is related to the outbreak node.

  • Patent number: 10829351
    Abstract: A load-handling vehicle, including a body; a boom, pivotally mounted to the body at a rear end region so that the boom can pivot up and down about an axis extending laterally with respect to the vehicle, wherein the boom has a load carrying implement attachable at a forward end region thereof; a steerable ground engageable propulsion arrangement; an electrically powered drive for the propulsion arrangement; a platform positioned at the rear of the body and to the side of the boom; and a battery pack positioned on the platform.
