Abstract: The present disclosure provides an orthopedic device and method for carpal fusion that provides bone to bone compression and multiple fixation points to decrease multiple degrees of freedom and motion of carpal bones. The device is biocompatible, resistant to corrosion, and sufficient in mechanical strength. Bone to bone compression and fixation points can be increased by using a first set of fasteners in a peripheral portion of the device to couple through the device into bone structure, and a second set of fasteners in a central portion of the device can be coupled through the device into the bone structure.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein, which utilize a combination of batch-processing and on-demand processing to provide recommendations, can include database(s) that store client data, item data, and executable code for composable algorithms that utilize the client data and/or the item data to provide recommendations. The system also includes a batch-process results data store that stores results of composable algorithms executed using batch-processing. Additionally, the system includes an algorithm engine that accepts calls to composable algorithms and output results thereof. The algorithm engine determines which called composable algorithms are designated as being executable using batch-processing, and which are designated as being executable using on-demand processing.

Abstract: A first proximity-based device at a content player receives content modification data from a second proximity-based device within a product and/or a product package when the product or product package is placed within a proximity to the first proximity-based device. A processor at the content player performs modified playback of media content based on the content modification data.

Abstract: Provided is a method for managing operation requests using different resources. In one embodiment, a first queue is provided for operations which utilize a first resource of a first and second resource. A second queue is provided for operations which utilize the second resource. An operation is queued on the first queue until the first resource is acquired. The first resource is released if the second resource is not also acquired. The operation is queued on the second queue when the first resource is acquired but the second resource is not. In addition, the first resource is released until the operation acquires both the first resource and the second resource.

Abstract: A process provides a multi-device display configuration. The process receives, at a master device, one or more device parameters from a plurality of display devices. The process also determines, at the master device, an arrangement of the plurality of display devices that provides a multi-device display. Further, the process sends, from the master device, one or more display indicia to the plurality of display devices that each of the plurality of display devices displays to allow one or more users to position the plurality of display devices in the arrangement. The process sends, from the master device, a first portion of the content to a first display device, and a second portion of the content to a second display device for the first and second display devices to simultaneously display the first and second portions of the content.
