Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer program products for controlling data collection by resources. The methods comprise: receiving real-world data collected by the resources in accordance with data collection mission (DCM) parameters; receiving user defined DCM goal(s); updating goal(s) for DCM mission(s) based on the real-world data and the user defined DCM goal(s); modifying the data DCM parameter(s) based on the updated goal(s) and which ones of the resources are still available for DCMs; and causing data collection operations (which are currently being performed by the resource(s)) to change in accordance with the modified DCM parameter(s).

Abstract: A medicament delivery device (“MDD”) having a delivery tube and a laryngeal mask having an anterior patient-contacting surface. In some embodiments of the invention, the laryngeal mask has an epiglottis-holding ridge. In some embodiments of the invention, the laryngeal mask has a cuff-portion providing at least a portion of an anterior patient-contacting surface, the cuff-portion being shaped and positioned to create a side-groove facing away from the anterior patient-contacting surface. In some embodiments of the invention, the laryngeal mask has a plurality of ridges on a posterior-side of the laryngeal mask opposite the anterior patient-contacting surface (the “posterior-side ridges”), the posterior-side ridges being shaped and positioned relative to the anterior patient-contacting surface so as to push against the patient and thereby push the anterior patient-contacting surface against the patient.

Abstract: A tremolo apparatus is provided having a stationary frame, a moving frame, at least one linear guideway, a string retainer, and at least one spring. The stationary frame is configured to be affixed to a planar surface of a stringed instrument. The moving frame has at least one ramp with a flat segment and is guided for oscillation relative to the stationary frame. The at least one linear guideway is provided by the stationary frame or the moving frame and supports the moving frame for oscillation. The string retainer has a plurality of string capture bores and engages with the ramp surface to carry a plurality of strings reciprocally as the string bar rides the ramp surface and reciprocates to alter tension of the strings carried terminally of the string retainer. The at least one spring is interposed between the frames to position the string retainer within the flat segment.

Abstract: Methods of delivering medicament and a medicament delivery device (“MDD”) are described. Such an MDD may have a laryngeal mask configured to fit against a patient at an area surrounding the patient's laryngeal inlet, and thereby cover a laryngeal inlet of the patient, and a delivery tube having interior wall surfaces defining a medicament channel. Medicament may be conveyed via the medicament channel toward the laryngeal mask. The MDD may have at least two gas channels. The gas channels may be in gas-communication with the laryngeal mask.

Abstract: A method and system for composing electronic communications retrieves and provides, in real-time or near-real time, personalized content data from electronically accessible content sources using replaceable tokens. A replaceable token points to a defined location of an electronically accessible content source. The token is identified, and the desired content data is extracted from the defined location. The token is replaced with the extracted content data, and the personalized or customized content data is inserted into one or more electronic communications.

Abstract: A set of mutually intercommunicating units each include a transmitter arrangement and a receiver responsive to a single encoded signal. Each transmitter arrangement produces any one of the encoded signals other than its own. Each unit is associated with an important or valuable item, such as keys, cellphone, wallet/purse and the like, which are liable to being misplaced. To find a misplaced unit, any other unit is procured, and its transmitter code associated with the missing unit is energized. The missing unit responds to the transmitted code by annunciating, allowing it to be located.
