Abstract: Exemplary methods and systems provide for production of geographically located, accurate indoor maps of physical spaces and provide navigation guidance for users in physical spaces, and process requests for users related to available physical space within said physical spaces. Aggregated information about the physical spaces is curated and converted using automated procedures into a data model that contains all elements of said physical spaces, including geographic data about the physical space's location on the globe. The system and computer program embodiments retrieve the converted data, load it on mobile devices or computers, rendering it on these devices in the correct global geographic context, allowing users to interact with the data to select rooms, and send and receive requests to and from external systems regarding these selections. Users navigate within the physical spaces using mobile devices and the computer program embodiments in tandem to provide accurate directions and guidance.

Abstract: Described herein is a truss/rafter roof erection device, kit and system. A removable universal bracing bracket assembly attaches to a construction member such as a truss on one end and includes at least one vertical bracket member attachable to a proximal end of a wood beam member that extends down to the ground to support the truss in an upright position during roof construction. Another pivoting bracket on the bracket assembly allows another wood beam member to be attached and extend down to the ground to further support the truss in an upright position.

Abstract: Methods are disclosed for generating and isolating an informative content repository of respiratory related biomarkers to accurately determine whether an individual has normal or abnormal pulmonary function. Specifically, methods are directed to determination of whether individuals have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and if so, whether the affected individuals experience rapid long decline or slow lung decline as a result of COPD. Also disclosed is an informative content repository of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease biomarkers, which when linked with other informative content provides a powerful tool for diagnosis, study, therapeutic discovery and development, condition management, health maintenance, and linking chronic obstructive pulmonary disease through pattern of life style, environmental exposure, and genetic susceptibility and inheritance.

Abstract: A method for underdisplacing fracture proppant in a well bore. The method can include providing a set retainer having a passage configured to receive a wiper plug. The method may also include installing the set retainer in the well bore and injecting a proppant-laden fluid into the well bore, through the passage of the set retainer and through a perforation to create the fracture. The method may include providing a wiper plug configured to be received in the passage of the set retainer. The method may also include inserting the wiper plug into the well bore and allowing the wiper plug to wipe a portion of the proppant-laden fluid past the set retainer and into the fracture. Additionally, the method may include allowing the set retainer to receive the wiper plug.

Abstract: Described herein is a truss/rafter roof erection system and kit that include H brackets that attach to a drop gable and are set to desired height. The first bracket attaches to a gable bracket piece and when the next truss is put in place a first and a second bar member are then slid into place, is pinned and fastened with a security cable. A security cable wraps around the truss or rafter and is secured into place with a one-way locking apparatus. At the finish (or other end of the roof) of the roof on the drop gable, or rafter, a second H bracket is fastened in the same manner as the starter end and is connected to a bar member.

Abstract: A riser tensioner system and a wellbay structure for a floating unit or platform for deep/ultra-deep water field development. The riser tensioner system includes a first cassette, a second cassette, a tension joint, one or more centralizers, and a plurality of cylinders. The one or more centralizers provide lateral support to the tension joint. Each of the plurality of cylinders comprises a first end, a second end, and an intermediate portion. The first end of each of the plurality of cylinders is secured to the first cassette, and an intermediate portion of each of the plurality of cylinders is secured to the second cassette. The wellbay structure includes a plurality of transverse girders and a plurality of longitudinal girders. The girders form a grid comprising a plurality of slots. Each of the plurality of slots is configured for receiving and supporting a first cassette of each a riser tensioner assembly.

Abstract: Behavior based signatures for identifying applications are generated. An application is monitored as it runs. Specific behaviors concerning the execution of the application are detected, and a behavior based signature representing detected behaviors is created, such that the behavior based signature can be used subsequently to identify instances of the application. Behavior based signatures identifying known malicious and/or non-malicious applications can be used to determine whether other applications comprise malware. To do so, a running application is monitored, and specific behaviors concerning the execution of the application are detected. The detected behaviors are compared to one or more behavior based signatures. Responsive to whether the detected behaviors match, a behavior based signature, it can be determined whether the application comprises malware.
