Abstract: Distribution servers and methods are disclosed for downloading data sets to patient devices. The server has a network interface circuit, a memory and a processing circuit. The memory receives a data set, the data set having parameters to be used by software on the patient devices to perform patient-related functions. The data set has a software version indicator for the data set. A processing circuit compares the software version indicator of the data set to a current software version of the patient device and determines that an inequality exists. Based on this determination, the server distributes the data set to the patient device.

Abstract: A method for ahead of time (AoT) compiling during a play of a legacy game is provided. The method includes scanning a memory device for an executable code of the legacy game, decoding the executable code, and translating the executable code into a first source code. The method further includes compiling the first source code to output a first compiled code, determining whether a user input during the play of the legacy game is received, and determining whether a fiber for servicing the user input is created. The fiber provides directionality of execution between the first compiled code and a second compiled code. The method includes executing the fiber in response to determining that the fiber for servicing the user input is created. The fiber is executed to generate one or more image frames of the legacy game.

Abstract: A custom-fitted helmet and a method of making the same can comprise, at a first location, obtaining head data for a customer's head comprising a length, a width, and at least one head contour. With at least one processor, generating a computerized three-dimensional (3D) headform matching the customer's head length, width, and head contour from the head data. The 3D headform can be compared to a helmet safety standard. At a second location different from the first location, a custom-fitted helmet based on the 3D headform can be formed, wherein the custom-fitted helmet satisfies the safety standard and comprises an inner surface comprising a topography that conforms to the length, width, and at least one contour of the customer's head. The first location can be a home or a store. Obtaining the head data from photographic images of a deformable interface member disposed on the customer's head.

Abstract: A management system to facilitate improved software asset management includes a management server coupled to a client instance and certain databases. The client instance stores identifiers associated with software programs accessible to users through the client instance. To enable software asset management features, the management server receives the identifiers and determines, based on the certain databases, whether the identifiers are associated with software models of the software programs. Notably, in response to an identifier of a particular software program not being associated with a software model, the management server generates a software model for the particular software program, and further, stores entries or relationships within the certain databases.

Abstract: Distributed tracing is applied during an upgrade from a first management appliance to a second management appliance. The distributed tracing method includes generating a parent span that encapsulates states of the overall workflow, including a span context that contains a trace identifier and a span identifier, and generating a plurality of child spans. Each child span encapsulates states that represent a piece of the workflow and contains a reference to the parent span context. The states of the child spans include an error tag that indicates whether the piece of the workflow associated with the child span executed with an error. Because child spans may be generated for a piece of the workflow that is executed by a service running in the first or second management appliance, the span context for the parent span is persisted by the first management appliance and replicated for use by the second management appliance.

Abstract: Techniques for monitoring operating statuses of an application and its dependencies are provided. A monitoring application may collect and report the operating status of the monitored application and each dependency. Through use of existing monitoring interfaces, the monitoring application can collect operating status without requiring modification of the underlying monitored application or dependencies. The monitoring application may determine a problem service that is a root cause of an unhealthy state of the monitored application. Dependency analyzer and discovery crawler techniques may automatically configure and update the monitoring application. Machine learning techniques may be used to determine patterns of performance based on system state information associated with performance events and provide health reports relative to a baseline status of the monitored application. Also provided are techniques for testing a response of the monitored application through modifications to API calls.
