Abstract: A system for maintaining individual immunization records. The system includes a tracking vehicle storing a first instance of a user record a terminal including an electronic processor and a memory. The electronic processor is configured to communicate with the tracking vehicle, obtain a second instance of the user record stored in the memory of the terminal and determine whether immunization data in the first instance or the second instance is more recent. When the first instance of the user record from the tracking vehicle includes more recent immunization data than the second instance of the user record stored in the memory, the electronic processor is configured to update the user record stored in the memory of the terminal with the more recent immunization data in the first instance of the user record of the tracking vehicle.

Abstract: Described herein are systems, methods, and software to manage time calibration associated with an oscillator of a computing system. In one example, a computing system monitors clock cycles for an oscillator on the computing system, receives timing messages from a server, and calculates the frequency of the oscillator at intervals based on the monitored clock cycles and timing messages. The computing system further identifies a temperature from a temperature sensor at each of the intervals and generates a function to demonstrate frequency of the oscillator versus temperatures from the temperature sensor based on the identified temperatures and frequencies at the intervals.

Abstract: Fluid modeling methods and systems are provided for predicting phase behavior of petroleum fluids using a computational model that employs pseudo-components of varying carbon numbers that represent asphaltenes, asphaltene-like hydrocarbon, and non-asphaltene hydrocarbons. The computational model models the phase equilibria of the mixture of components with mixing rules that employ binary interaction parameters determined from correlations that involve certain properties or parameters associated with respective pseudo-component pairs as input variables. The binary interaction parameters are tuned by adjusting at least one parameter of the respective correlations based on matching at least one measured property of one or more petroleum fluids to a corresponding property predicted by the computational model for the one or more petroleum fluids. The tuned values for the binary interaction parameters can be stored as part of the computational model for subsequent fluid modeling.

Abstract: A reduced-latency ink rendering system and method that reduces latency in rendering ink on a display by bypassing at least some layers of the operating system. “Ink” is any input from a user through a touchscreen device using the user's finger or a pen. Moreover, some embodiments of the system and method avoid the operating system and each central-processing unit (CPU) on a computing device when initially rendering the ink by going directly from the digitizer to the display controller. Any correction or additional processing of the rendered ink is performed after the initial rendering of the ink. Embodiments of the system and method address ink-rendering latency in software embodiments, which include techniques to bypass the typical rendering pipeline and quickly render ink on the display, and hardware embodiments, which use hardware and techniques that locally change display pixels. These embodiments can be mixed and matched in any manner.

Abstract: A solar receiver includes a wavelength selective coating comprising a first diffusion barrier layer, a metallic IR reflective layer, a solar absorptive layer, an anti-reflective layer, and/or a hard coat protective layer. Selective absorber coatings, which are characterized by a high solar absorption coefficient and low thermal emission, can be used to convert captured solar radiation into usable heat. In embodiments, more efficient selective coatings are provided that combine relatively high solar absorbance (e.g., greater than about 0.96) with relatively low thermal emittance (e.g., less than about 0.07 at 700° C.), and that are thermally stable above 600° C., for example, in outdoor conditions. The use of such coatings in a solar field may allow for an increase in the operating efficiencies thereof at operating temperatures of about 600° C. or greater.
