Abstract: Systems and methods for generating dashboards for healthcare providers are provided. In one embodiment, a method comprises receiving, from a user of a client device, a selection of a patient, determining an order of a plurality of display modules, each display module displaying information relating to the patient, generating a dashboard including the plurality of display modules displayed in the order, and transmitting the dashboard to the client device for display to the user. In this way, members may be identified for intervention in a timely manner, and the most relevant information for a healthcare provider may be prioritized for display to a healthcare provider.

Abstract: An LED lamp is provided that is capable of being wirelessly and remotely controlled by an LED lighting control device. The LED lamp includes an antenna on the lens of the LED lamp and is embedded in a raised section of lens material. Locating the antenna in the raised section of lens material allows the LED lamp to be controlled by a stronger control signal from the LED lighting control device at greater distances (e.g., typically greater than ten feet) and does not detract from the aesthetic appeal of the LED lamp.

Abstract: Device and operational management using bi-directional communication can be performed by a system that includes a service requesting component that generates first metadata, and a service provider component that receives the first metadata and generates second metadata in response thereto for processing by the service requesting component. In other aspects, device and operational management can be performed by determining a status of a given management operation related to a given workflow relative to a given component, and communicating the status of the given management operation to another component that is downstream of the given component in the given workflow. This communication can prevent the other component from repeating the management operation, leading to erroneous results for the workflow.

Abstract: Modular content framework and document format methods and systems are described. The described framework and format define a set of building blocks for composing, packaging, distributing, and rendering document-centered content. These building blocks define a platform-independent framework for document formats that enable software and hardware systems to generate, exchange, and display documents reliably and consistently. The framework and format have been designed in a flexible and extensible fashion. In addition to this general framework and format, a particular format, known as the reach package format, is defined using the general framework. The reach package format is a format for storing paginated documents. The contents of a reach package can be displayed or printed with full fidelity among devices and applications in a wide range of environments and across a wide range of scenarios.

Abstract: Conversion of spool files to a PDL within a pipeline of modular filters. A spooler is adapted to receive content to be rendered on a destination device, and one or more filters are adapted to render the content on the destination device. In other embodiments, the filters are arranged in a pipeline configuration to execute a variety of functions in connection with rendering the content on the destination device. The filters can convert content in a spool file format into corresponding PDL representations, and vice versa.

Abstract: A binding for a snowshoe has an injection molded base or footbed with integral control wings for cradling the shoe generally as in Pat. No. 5,259,128. The base preferably has toe stops at the forward end, positioned asymmetrically on the base to better individually contour to the left shoe and the right shoe. At the inner side of the foot the toe stop is farther forward. The lower end of the arch side control wing is positioned to cradle the shoe arch while the outer side control wing is at an offset position to engage an aft area of the shoe. Also, the width of the binding can be adjustable at the arch. These features provide a better connection of the snowshoe to the shoe, greater stability in use of the snowshoe and greater comfort to the user.

Abstract: A snowshoe binding engages the sole of the user's boot in a region between the arch and the widest part of the sole, gripping the sole laterally and sufficiently firmly that the boot will not pull out of the binding during use of the snowshoe, even in the absence of a heel strap. The arch area of the boot typically is narrower in width than the ball of the foot, providing a rearwardly tapering region for positive engagement against pulling back of the boot in the binding. By engaging the boot at the sole, the binding can put pressure on the boot not felt by the user. In one form the sole engaging binding device has a width adjustment with a sliding element, and the firmly clamping sole engagement preferably is accomplished with a cam that engages when a strap is tightened. An efficient buckle and strap are also disclosed.

Abstract: A boot binding for a snowshoe, suspended within the snowshoe for flexibility of the boot relative to the snowshoe in the pitch direction, has a binding footbed that is flexible and allows bending of the boot in the pitch directed, as steps are taken by the user.

Abstract: A binding for a snowshoe has, in several different embodiments, a pair of straps to draw the binding tight over a user's boot, the two straps reversing direction at side loop points and being secured to a pair of buckles on a floating tongue at the top of the binding, generally over the ball area of the foot. In one form the straps are anchored at toe points on the binding and extend back in a crossing, X configuration, as in U.S. Pat. No. 6,814,360. In another form the straps are shorter and do not cross, the forward ends being replaced with toe-cradling strap-like members that extend up and back and come together at a pivot connection with a tongue, in this case a shorter tongue, to which the two buckles are connected. The binding tends to open with release of the straps. In a third form the tongue is a larger, padded X-shaped flexible member under which the boot is slid to engage the binding.
