Abstract: This document presents a system to identify patterns of life associated with the users of radio frequency emitting devices radiating within a monitored volume. These recurring commonalities in human activity can be derived from collected data and subsequent analytics that provide intelligence about those emitters and associated humans present within the monitored environment. The Hlin system provides unique identifiers for detected emitters; insights into the current network relationships between emitters, past and current; human relational networks within the monitored volume; and can identify previous emitter locations prior to detection by the Hlin system. These patterns of life provide a foundation for predicting interactions between humans associated with emitters active in structures within a monitored volume. The Hlin system may also utilize collected information to trace or track devices, and associated users, through the monitored volume.

Abstract: This document presents a system to identify patterns of life associated with the users of radio frequency emitting devices radiating within a monitored volume. These recurring commonalities in human activity can be derived from collected data and subsequent analytics that provide intelligence about those emitters and associated humans present within the monitored volume. The Freya system provides unique identifiers for detected emitters; insights into the current network relationships between emitters, past and current; human relational networks within the monitored volume; and can identify previous emitter locations prior to detection by the Freya system. These patterns of life provide a foundation for predicting interactions between humans associated with emitters active on the Internet of Things (IoT). This capability provides enhanced security capabilities as required by authorities for sensitive venues and events.

Abstract: An abdominal closure method and device is disclosed where the device generally includes a first tissue securement member configured for securement to a first tissue region and a second tissue securement member configured for securement to a second tissue region. The first and second tissue securement members are coupled to the connecting member and the connecting member is positionable at a distance from the first and second tissue regions. Additionally, one or more biasing elements may be connected to the first and second tissue securement members to approximate the first and second tissue regions towards one another via respective securement members.

Abstract: Abdominal approximation devices and methods are described where one variation of the tissue securement assembly may generally include a fixation member having a length, a thickness control securement member which is adjustably securable along the length, and a frame which is adjustably securable to the thickness control securement member. The frame may have a relaxed configuration and a biasing configuration which imparts a biasing force against the thickness control securement member when in the biasing configuration such that the biasing force is applied at a distance from tissue to be approximated via the fixation member.
