Abstract: Patient positioners as well as methods for using patient positioners are disclosed. An example patient positioner may include a thoracic support assembly having one or more thoracic attachment members for securing the thoracic support member to a rail. The thoracic support assembly may have a thoracic adjustment mechanism configured to shift the thoracic support assembly relative to the one or more thoracic attachment members. A lumbar support assembly may be disposed adjacent to the thoracic support assembly. The lumbar support assembly may include one or more lumbar attachment members for securing the lumbar support assembly to the rail. The lumbar support assembly may include a lumbar adjustment mechanism configured to shift the lumbar support assembly relative to the one or more lumbar attachment members. A bolster may be coupled to at least one of the thoracic support assembly and the lumbar support assembly.

Abstract: An embodiment may respond to different weather profiles and market conditions within a controlled environment agricultural system, which may include one or more power consuming and environment controlling systems. Different market demands and prices may be used to influence which plants are grown and when they should be harvested. The growing process may be altered based on market demand, which may call for a varietal to be harvested at a delayed time or may require some other parameters to be optimized. A control unit may identify criticality of and power consumption by the systems and may compare those with the current cost of power. The control unit may analyze the cost of adjusting power to systems and the cost of powering those systems during a specified period of time. A weather profile may be forecasted which can be used to identify which systems to power or when to store energy.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program retrieves a plurality of transaction data from a storage. Each transaction data in the plurality of transaction data includes an item and an amount associated with the item. Based on the plurality of transaction data, the program further determines a set of range of amounts. Based on the set of range of amounts and a set of data objects, the program also determining a set of categories. Each data object in the set of data objects belongs to a category in the set of categories.
