Abstract: A default modem configuration can be stored in a memory. A wireless communication carrier modem configuration corresponding to a wireless communication carrier eSIM profile can be applied to a modem. Wireless communication signals can be communicated with a wireless wide area network via the modem using the wireless communication carrier modem configuration. An input disabling the wireless communication carrier eSIM profile can be received. The wireless communication carrier modem configuration corresponding to the wireless communication carrier eSIM profile in the modem can be deactivated in response to receiving the input disabling the wireless communication carrier eSIM profile. The default modem configuration can be applied to the modem in response to receiving the input disabling the wireless communication carrier eSIM profile. Wireless communication signals can be communicated via the modem using the default modem configuration.

Abstract: A pharmacy packaging system configured to dispense pharmaceuticals into a pharmaceutical pouch formed by a feed roll and including a verification system. The verification system includes a camera system configured to capture images in a visible spectrum and an infrared spectrum, a first light source configured to output an infrared spectrum light, a second light source configured to output a visible spectrum light, and a processor. The processor is operable to activate the first light source to illuminate the pharmaceutical pouch and capture a first image of the pharmaceutical pouch while illuminated by the first light source. The processor is also operable to activate the second light source to illuminate the pharmaceutical pouch and capture a second image of the pharmaceutical pouch while illuminated by the second light source. The processor is further operable to generate a third image based on the first image and the second image.

Abstract: Conveying a replaceable assembly between latched and unlatched configurations with an outer housing can include connecting the replaceable assembly to a running tool, so the assembly can be conveyed with the running tool, and disconnecting the assembly from the running tool. At least one of the connecting and disconnecting steps can include actuating an iris mechanism. A pressure control device can include an annular seal and a latch that releasably secures the annular seal relative to an outer housing, the latch including a grip member that grips a surface and prevents relative rotation. Another pressure control device can include an annular seal connected to and rotatable with an inner mandrel, and a bearing that permits relative rotation between the annular seal and the outer housing. A structure rotates with the inner mandrel, the structure including a flow inductive profile exposed to a bearing lubricant flow path.

Abstract: A progressing cavity device operates as a motor to impart torque to a bit. A stator of the device defines an internal profile having uphole stages with a first dimension being less than a second dimension of downhole stage. A rotor has an external profile with a constant outer dimension along its length. Disposed in the stator, the rotor defines cavities with the stator and is rotatable with pumped fluid progressing in the cavities from the uphole to downhole to transfer torque to the drive toward the downhole end. Although the rotor is subjected at the downhole end to a reactive torque from the bit, the interference fit of the rotor's constant dimension with the stator's downhole stages is less than with the uphole stages, which can mitigate issues with heat buildup in the downhole stages. The device can also operates as a progressing cavity pump.

Abstract: A planar fin for use in a heat sink includes turbulent structures extending from the sides of the planar fin. Each turbulent structure defines a longitudinal axis and having a first edge that is parallel to the longitudinal axis and connected to the a planar surface of the fin. Each turbulent structure also includes a second edge opposite the first edged and in free space. The second edge defines a periphery that varies in distance from the first edge along the length of the longitudinal axis. The periphery of each second edge is further shaped such that turbulent flow of a fluid is induced in the flow flowing over the second edge at at least a predefined flow rate.

Abstract: GTP firewall service to block or allow GTP-C v1 messages from specific SGSN/GGSN and GTP-C v2 messages from specific SGW/PGW to prevent fraudulent activity occurring from any specific serving node or home node. GTP Traffic from specific SGSN (3G) or SGW (4G) can be blocked going to specific home operator, including 3G GSM to 4G LTE and 4G LTE to 3G GSM protocol interoperability provided by GTP Firewall. Individual Information Elements within GTP-C v1 and GTP-C v2 messages will be monitored based on home and serve operator configuration as well as GTP messages and Information Elements mapped from GTP-C v1 to GTP-C v2 for 3G GSM to 4G LTE interoperability and GTP-C v2 to GTP-C v1 for 4G LTE to 3G GSM interoperability.
