Abstract: An industrial integrated development environment (IDE) supports open or extensible application programming interfaces (APIs) that enable end users (e.g., plant asset owners, original equipment manufacturers (OEM), system integrators, etc.) to build upon the IDE's development platform to create custom views or to code custom functionality. This can include, for example, defining a control programming syntax supported by the industrial IDE, customizing a development environment view afforded by the IDE's interface, modifying or creating project editing functions, defining customized programming guardrails designed to guide compliance with in-house programming standards, or other such IDE customizations.

Abstract: An industrial IDE supports development of control programming using an industrial domain-specific language (DSL) that allows control programming to be written using a scripted programming language having features catered to the industrial domain. The industrial DSL can simplify and streamline development of industrial control code relative to using conventional graphics-based control programming formats such as ladder logic, since a script-based industrial DSL can be used to write programming code using fewer mouse clicks relative to traditional control programming environments. Editing tools inherent to the industrial DSL can provide dynamic programming feedback that guides the developer through the process of developing control code. The industrial IDE can also provide tools that extend the platform to users who wish to customize the industrial DSL to suit their preferred programming approaches.

Abstract: A drug delivery device includes a housing, a container at least partially disposed within the housing and configured to contain a medicament, an injection mechanism at least partially disposed within the housing and configured to exert a force to urge the medicament from the container, a drug delivery component at least partially disposed within the housing, and at least one pin positioned adjacent to the housing and preventing activation of the activation mechanism until the at least one pin reaches a desired temperature.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are nanoparticle compositions containing that may be created by functionalizing polyethylenimine (PEI) with fatty acids and carboxylate terminated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). The disclosed compositions may be delivered to an individual in need thereof via delivery into blood circulation, where the nanoparticle compositions show an exceptionally high specificity to the pulmonary microvascular endothelium with minimal targeting of other cell types in the lung, to provide delivery of therapeutic agents such as stabilized nucleic acids. Methods of using the compositions are also disclosed.

Abstract: Existing single cell analysis techniques are generally high-resolution but are limited in the number of possible different experimental conditions. Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for multiplexed barcoding of a heterogenous population of cells using cationic polymers for delivery of nucleic acid barcodes to a cell population.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for locating terminals within a facility. One or more of a plurality of primary terminals send a location signal which may comprise location data for the respective primary terminal. A secondary terminal, of a plurality of secondary terminals may receive one or more of these location signals. In response, the secondary terminal sends a confirmation message to each primary terminal from which it has received a location signal. The confirmation message may comprise a unique identifier for the secondary terminal. In response to receiving one or more confirmation messages, a primary terminal sends a location reporting message to a location processing server. The location reporting message comprises the location data for that primary terminal and the contents of the received confirmation message(s). The data held on the location processing server can be used to determine the location and movement of each of the primary terminals and the secondary terminals.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a drug pump includes a housing and, within the housing, an expandable drug reservoir at least part of which is exposed to a pressurized propellant. The propellant exerts a substantially constant pressure on the drug reservoir. A flow restrictor significantly limits outflow from the pump, and preferably has both a small diameter and a long path length, which acts to control the outflow from the drug reservoir. As a result, the pump produces a substantially constant outflow.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a vent arrangement integrated with a refill port disposed on the outer shell of an implantable drug-delivery device. The vent arrangement may utilize a tiered structure with two septums in a space-efficient configuration that facilitates both venting of pressure and refill of the drug reservoir.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention involve a refill apparatus comprising at least one pump, a plurality of reservoirs, a plurality of reservoir fluid channels each associated with one of the reservoirs, a plurality of valves, each having a cracking pressure, for fluidically sealing the reservoir fluid channels and the outlet fluid channel, an outlet fluid channel fluidically connected to the reservoir fluid channels, and a needle having a lumen in fluid communication with the outlet fluid channel. A parameter such as a pressure level is monitored, and one or more pumps and various ones of the valves are actuated in accordance with a protocol comprising a sequence of steps whereby fluidic pathways are opened between different ones of the reservoirs and the needle in a washing and filling sequence, each of the steps being associated with an expected pressure level.

Abstract: Tubular polymeric structures are formed by creating a convex mold conforming to a fluid pathway design, depositing a coating of polymer over the mold, and in situ removing the mold without drawing it against the polymer. The resulting structures are fabricated with flow-altering features.
