Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer software products implement embodiments of the present invention that include applying energy to a probe that is in contact with tissue in a body cavity so as to ablate the tissue. While applying the energy, signals are received from a location transducer in the probe, which are indicative of a location of the probe in the cavity. The signals are processed so as to derive 3D location coordinate points corresponding to the location of the probe at a sequence of times during which the energy was applied. While applying the energy, a 3D representation of the body cavity is rendered to a display, and visual indicators are superimposed on the 3D representation, the visual indicators corresponding to the 3D location coordinate points at the sequence of times. Finally, a linear trace connecting the coordinate points in accordance with the sequence is superimposed on the 3D representation.

Abstract: A method of analyzing biological data containing expression values of a plurality of polypeptides in the blood of a subject. The method comprises: calculating a distance between a segment of a curved line and an axis defined by a direction, the distance being calculated at a point over the curved line defined by a coordinate along the direction. The method further comprises correlating the distance to the presence of, absence of, or likelihood that the subject has, a bacterial infection. The coordinate is defined by a combination of the expression values, wherein at least 90% of the segment is between a lower bound line and an upper bound line.

Abstract: A touch-screen system comprises adjacent first and second touch-screen sensors, first and second digitizers, and synchronization and return logic. Each of the first and second digitizers is coupled electronically to the respective touch-screen sensor and configured to provide a pen signal responsive to action of a pen on the touch-screen sensor. The synchronization logic is configured to synchronize the pen to the first and second digitizers and to enable pen tracking by any of the first and second digitizers conditionally, based at least partly on the first and second pen signals. The return logic is configured to expose a result of the pen tracking to an operating system of the touch-screen system.

Abstract: Power management logic of a multi-display touch device provides for selectively reducing a power state of a touch system within each individual display at times when the touch system of the display is inactive. The power management logic facilitates selective toggling of the touch system from a high power state to a low power state independent of a power state of other touch systems in the multi-display device, The power management logic further facilitates selective toggling of the touch system power state from the low power state to the high power state responsive to a communication received across the interlink.
