  • Publication number: 20200367498
    Abstract: This invention relates to pyrimidine derivatives, to compositions comprising the pyrimidine derivatives, to methods of making and using these compositions, and to the use of the pyrimidine derivatives as adjuvants, particularly for agrochemical use. In particular, the present invention relates to compositions comprising the pyrimidine derivatives selected from emulsifiable concentrates (EC), emulsions in water (EW), suspensions of particles in water (SC), soluble liquids (SL), capsule suspensions (CS), suspensions of particles with an emulsion (SE), dispersion concentrates (DC), suspensions of particles in oil (OD), water dispersible granules (WG), soluble granules (SG) and wettable powders (WP).

  • Patent number: 10846113
    Abstract: Technologies are provided for running multiple firmware instances in a board management controller (BMC). The BMC can comprise a virtualization controller configured to manage multiple virtualized firmware instances in separate virtual machines or virtualization containers. One of the firmware instances can be an instance of an older BMC firmware, and another of the firmware instances can be an instance of a newer BMC firmware configured to delegate control of hardware components it does not support to the instance of the older firmware. As the newer firmware is updated to support additional hardware components, the instance of the older firmware's control of those components can be disabled. BMC commands can be received and routed to the multiple firmware instances that support them for processing.

  • Patent number: 10839106
    Abstract: Aspects extend to methods, systems, and computer program products for creating workflow instances. Workflow templates define different functionalities, such as, for example, between fixed and variable functionality or between functionality authored by different co-authors. Different functionalities defined in a workflow template can be configured to interoperate to provide workflow instances. Functionality defined within a workflow template can be instantiated in a workflow instance based on properties corresponding to the functionality. The properties can include connections with credentials for accessing resources used by the functionality. Connections can obscure access to credentials so that processes outside of a workflow instance cannot use the credentials to access resources.

  • Patent number: 10841146
    Abstract: A digital audio gateway device for use in a wireless network of digital audio playback devices. The gateway device is wirelessly linked to one or more digital audio playback devices to provide a gateway to the Internet for the digital audio playback devices. In addition to functioning as a gateway, the device provides additional functionality and may act as a cache of digital audio data for the various digital audio players connected in the wireless network and may also act to automatically update digital audio content on the audio players, synchronize digital audio content and playlists between the digital audio players and continue automatically or upon user request a particular playlist as the user moves from one digital audio player to another.

  • Publication number: 20200107788
    Abstract: Systems and methods for using blood pressure monitoring instrument inaccuracy to accomplish categorization based on the instrument's measurements and inaccuracy in conjunction with a categorization assessment algorithm are disclosed. Incorporation of inaccuracy enables high confidence screening for cardiovascular risk based on biomarker and other data within risk criteria algorithms, and also incorporating blood pressure monitoring instrument measurement with inaccuracy. Screening results can be displayed as a confidence figure above or below a risk threshold, or via assignment into one of various risk categories around a threshold, with the categories determined in part by apparatus inaccuracy.

  • Publication number: 20200093441
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for displaying a blood pressure monitoring instrument reading along with inaccuracy values that vary over apparatus life and according to current operating conditions are disclosed. These inaccuracy values account for variability under different operating environments, over time and number of device measurement cycles, and across the range of possible instrument reading conditions. Determination of inaccuracy values may be based both on apparatus history and measurement under the current operating condition. Methods can further include informing a user of confidence in the instrument's current measurements based on the instrument's measurements and inaccuracy.

  • Patent number: 10584961
    Abstract: A system includes a light source, a detector, and a processor. The light source is configured to emit light onto a target. The detector is configured to receive light interaction between the emitted light and the target. The processor is configured to receive the light interaction between the emitted light and the target and further configured to process the light interaction to determine an edge profile associated with the target.

  • Patent number: 10563460
    Abstract: Systems and methods divide flow in a wellbore into a plurality of flow paths. A first one of the flow paths extends to a down-hole turbine that is responsive to fluid flow to provide rotational motion to an electric generator or other down-hole tool. A second flow path may extend to an independent down-hole tool, to a port communicating with the wellbore, to a bypass channel extending around the turbine, or to any other down-hole location. The turbine includes a stator having adjustable blades such that an open flow area through the turbine may be selectively controlled. A flow distribution between the first and second flow paths can be controlled where specific flow areas are needed at specific flow rates, for example.

  • Publication number: 20190372397
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention provides a method for reducing data corruption in a wireless power transmission system. Power is transmitted from a primary coil to a secondary coil by induction. The voltage induced on the secondary coil by induction is rectified. The change in current supplied to a load configured to be coupled to the wireless power transmission system is limited.
