  • Patent number: 11811682
    Abstract: Systems and methods for responding to latency in connected vehicles. Vehicles operating on or near the edge of networks are identified. Vehicle dependent nodes are identified. Latency is calculated between the vehicle and the dependent nodes. The latency is compared to one or more threshold values and a response is determined and/or executed.

  • Patent number: 10365315
    Abstract: A method for locating an anomaly in a distribution circuit including utility power lines includes coupling a radio frequency energy source to the utility power lines, transmitting chirped radio frequency signals into the utility power lines, receiving and digitizing/analyzing signals reflected from the chirped signals by impedance mismatches caused by components and features of the distribution circuit, and generating from the digitized signals of multiple sets of the chirped radio frequency signals a reference data set identifying at least the locations of at least some of the components and features of the distribution circuit. Later sets of the chirped radio frequency signals are transmitted into the utility power lines and signals reflected from the sets of chirped signals are received and digitized and are compared with the reference data set to determine if there are anomalies on the distribution circuit.

  • Publication number: 20050216310
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system for inventory administration and monitoring of medicines and pharmaceuticals from a pharmacy and medicinal administration facility for use in correctional facilities, such as in prisons. Information related to past medical history of a patient may be reviewed while simultaneously reviewing a prescription written for the same patient. Prescription filling tasks can also be controlled, such as printing labels for medication in batches to assist with the shipment of medication to prison units. Compliance records associated with medicinal administration of prescribed medications to patients can also be maintained.
