  • Patent number: 10965635
    Abstract: Technical solutions are described to arbitrarily order and access email messages based on text analysis and social network analysis. One general aspect includes a system that includes an email server and an email client. The email server generates a topic map of email messages stored on the email server. The email server also generates a social map of users with accounts on the email server. The email server receives an email message from a first user, the email message directed to a second user. The email server sends the email message to a third user in response to determining that the email message is relevant to the third user. The present document further describes examples of other aspects such as methods, computer products.

  • Patent number: 10847263
    Abstract: A system and method tracks touches in a healthcare environment in order to analyze paths of transmission and contamination for the purpose of eliminating and containing transmission of colonizing, drug-resistant pathogens. Touches are identified and tracked with the use of recording devices. Each touch is logged and a touch graph is generated to identify transmission paths.

  • Patent number: 10298558
    Abstract: An access manager manages access to a resource. At a first time, the access manager designates a variable attribute associated with a recurring public event as a shared secret between the access manager and a user. At a second time occurring after the first time, the access manager receives a shared key from the user. As received, the shared key is based on a value of the variable attribute associated with the recurring public event at a most recent recurrence of the recurring public event relative to the second time. The access manager evaluates the shared key. In response to the evaluation, the access manager grants or denies the user access to the resource.

  • Patent number: 10265703
    Abstract: An airborne particle collection system includes an airflow directing unit, register units, a fan unit, and a control system. The airflow directing unit includes a plurality of separately controlled air distribution segments. Each register unit includes a motorized damper and filter. The fan unit is connected to the airflow directing unit and to the register units through piping. The fan unit injects air into the airflow directing unit, and generates a vacuum force that causes exhaust air with airborne particles to be pulled into the register units and filtered by the filters within the register units. The control system selectively controls the air distribution segments of the airflow directing unit and the motorized dampers of the register units to generate alterable airflow patterns between the airflow directing unit and the register units in different zones within a room in which the airflow directing unit and the register units are disposed.

  • Patent number: 9733922
    Abstract: An on device client that augments operating system functionality may monitor for an event from an operating system running on a processor of a device. Responsive to determining that the event is indicative of an installation of an application on the device, the on device client may generate a table associated with the application. The table comprises locations of file system entities associated with the application. The table is stored in a memory device. Responsive to determining that the event is indicative of a modification to the application installed on the device, the on device client may trigger one or more automatic processor actions to keep the modification consistent across the file system entities of the application.
