  • Patent number: 10482998
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to cell processing techniques. By way of example, a cell processing system may include a plurality of tracking devices coupled to a respective plurality of sample processing containers and storing sample identification information for a patient sample for use with sample processing devices configured to process the patient sample according to workflow steps of a processing protocol. A plurality of readers are configured to receive signals from the plurality of tracking devices. A controller may be coupled to the plurality of readers and configured to determine if the patient sample is processed according to the processing protocol based at least in part on the signals from the plurality of tracking devices.

  • Patent number: 9998566
    Abstract: Example embodiments of a method, apparatus, and computer readable medium for a gateway with common data format are generally described herein. The gateway may include memory to store data in a common data format to be operated on by applications, and network interfaces configured to interface an application to a remote device via a network. The gateway may further include protocol adapters configured to communicate with the remote device using a communication protocol of the remote device, and data adapters configured to convert data between a format of the remote device and the common data format. The gateway may further include a protocol selector module configured to select a protocol adapter where a selected protocol adapter communicates with a remote device, and a data adapter selector module configured to select a data adapter where a selected data adapter adapts data between the remote device and the common format.

  • Publication number: 20160063412
    Abstract: A system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a method for distributed goal-driven programming in the context of a publisher-subscriber model is presented. Example embodiments involve communicating a subscriber goal to a publisher related to data produced by the publisher and subscribed to by one or more subscribers. A production monitor may then modify resource allocations used for producing the data such that the data may be produced in accordance with the subscriber goal. The publisher may then produce the data in accordance with the subscriber goal, and the produced data may be published to the one or more subscribers.
