Abstract: A computer-implemented method receives, into a computerized system, routine electronic transmissions such as a clinician order entry (CPOE) order message relating to a patient. The order message is used to identify one of a number of pre-established templates to create an individualized wellness plan. The method identifies data variables that need to be supplied for the wellness plan and identifies patient documentation related to the wellness plan. The method supplies the data variables and combines patient documentation into the wellness plan. The method identifies and includes dependency-awareness of tasks, reminders, and appointments within and across wellness plans. The method can customize the wellness plan according to clinician preferences and patient preferences, and can restrict access and content of the wellness plan.

A computing device participating in a video conference may determine that a frame of a video stream includes features of a face, extract a portion of the frame that includes a first pair of eyes, and determine that the first pair of eyes are looking in a non-forward direction. The computing device may retrieve, from a database, a stored portion that includes a second pair of eyes that are looking in a forward direction, and modify the frame by substituting the stored portion for the portion in the frame to create a modified frame. The computing device may send the modified frame to a videoconferencing server for distribution to other computing devices participating in the video conference.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium for providing a device control operation which enables a device to receive or otherwise identify commands intended for it by having the device consult and interact with a secure decentralized transactional ledger. Such a device control operation indirectly and securely controls a device. More specifically, in certain embodiments, the transactional ledger comprises a distributed data structure that is maintained by a set of unassociated network attached information handling systems. In certain embodiments, the network attached information handling systems use novel algorithms and cryptographic methods to ensure that the state of the ledger is valid and that it reflects the state endorsed by a predetermined number (e.g., a majority) of the information handling systems maintaining the ledger.
