Abstract: A processor-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product determines a testing regime for program code created in a development system. A risk factor of a user of the development system is calculated based on information relating to previous activities of the user. The calculated risk factor, which describes a likelihood of the user damaging the development system, is used to determine a testing regime for testing program code.

Abstract: A three-dimensionally printed capsule includes a sintered exterior and an unsintered powder, both formed from a first powder supply. The sintered exterior defines an interior portion that hoses the unsintered powder. The sintered extern includes a base and a removable cap. The removable cap can transition between a fixed position and a detached position. The interior portion is sealed relative to the external environment in the fixed position, while the interior portion is exposed to the external environment in the detached position. The unsintered powder is protected from the external environment when the removable cap is in the fixed position. The unsintered powder is exposed to the external environment when the removeable cap is in the detached position.

Abstract: An automated data acquisition, appraisal and analysis in noninvasive rapid screening of neuro-otologic condition using combination of subject's objective oculomotor, vestibular and reaction time analytic variables, comprises the steps of: establishing an oculomotor, vestibular and reaction time testing protocol for specific neuro-otologic condition which protocol included eye tracking aspects and which protocol obtains a combination of a subject's objective oculomotor, vestibular and reaction time analytic variables; coupling an eye tracker to subject; automatically establishing a region of interest for the eye tracker in which the region of interest is centered on the subject's pupils; conducting the oculomotor, vestibular and reaction time testing protocol using pre-programmed/automated voice instructions to the subject to obtain a combination of a subject's objective oculomotor, vestibular and reaction time analytic variables; and calculating and displaying a normalized composite test protocol score (0-1)

Abstract: A communicate device includes transmitters and a receiver. The first transmitter is coupled to a first 90° phase shifter that is also coupled to a first antenna, and to a second 90° phase shifter that is also coupled to a first node. The second transmitter is coupled to a third 90° phase shifter that is also coupled to a second antenna, and to a fourth 90° phase shifter that is also coupled to the first node. The receiver is coupled to a fifth 90° phase shifter that is also coupled to the first antenna, and to a sixth 90° phase shifter that is also coupled to the second antenna. A non-reciprocal element, coupled between the receiver and the first node, provides a 90° phase shift from the receiver to the first node and a ?90° phase shift from the first node to the receiver.

Abstract: A method of balancing a beam pumping unit can include securing counterweights to crank arms, thereby counterbalancing a torque applied at a crankshaft at a maximum torque factor position due to a polished rod load and any structural unbalance. A well system can include a beam pumping unit including a gear reducer having a crankshaft, crank arms connected to the crankshaft, a beam connected at one end to the crank arm and at an opposite end to a rod string polished rod, and counterweights secured to the crank arms, and in which a torque applied at the crankshaft at a maximum torque factor position due to weights of the crank arms, the counterweights and wrist pins equals a torque applied at the crankshaft at the maximum torque factor position due to a load applied to the beam via the polished rod and any structural unbalance.

Abstract: One or more processors receives one or more first database records indicating a plurality of candidate identifiers are received by one or more processors. The one or more processors obtains one or more electronic images of the physical asset. At least one electronic image includes a graphical representation of data printed on the physical asset. The one or more processors identifies a plurality of regions of the data based on the one or more electronic images. The one or more processors determines a context of the physical asset based on the plurality of regions, selects the identifier from the plurality of candidate identifiers based on the plurality of regions, and generates a second database record including an indication of the context of the physical asset, and an indication of the identifier.

Abstract: A system and associated method for computerized rotational head impulse test (crHIT) to assess the semicircular canals of the human vestibular system clinically in patients with balance disorders. The system utilizes a rotary chair combined with a head mounted VOG system with head tracking sensors. The crHIT protocol uses the same physiologic principles as the known video head impulse test (vHIT). The crHIT utilizes whole-body rotation via the chair to yield a persistent controlled, repeatable, comfortable, reliable stimulus can be delivered while recording eye movements with video-oculogaphy.
