Publication number: 20240071593Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Anna Leigh DAVIS, Scott M.

Patent number: 9238942Abstract: A system, method and computer-readable medium for developing an earth formation is disclosed. A tool conveyed in a borehole induces a stress in the earth formation proximate a borehole. A sensor assembly obtains a measurement of a physical property of the borehole at a plurality of azimuthal locations in the borehole. The values of the physical property are indicative of the induced stress in the formation. A processor forms an image of the borehole using the obtained measurements of the physical property, estimates an azimuthal variation with borehole depth of the induced stress in the formation from the formed image, and alters an operational parameter of a device for developing the earth formation using the estimated azimuthal variation with depth of the induced stress in the formation.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2012Date of Patent: January 19, 2016Assignee: Baker Hughes IncorporatedInventors: Daniel Moos, Gamal A.

Publication number: 20140074604Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for facilitating the creation and management of marketing campaigns, as well as the delivery of advertisements associated with those campaigns. Some embodiments provide a Mobile Marketing Platform (“MMP”) configured to determine an audience profile based on received marketing campaign information (e.g., delivery time, demographic information, ad copy). The determined audience profile describes a market segment that is expected or predicted to respond positively to the marketing campaign. The MMP then receives an indication that a particular user is accessing a resource (e.g., content item, Web site, mobile application). The MMP then compares the attributes of the user (e.g., demographics, location, device type) with multiple stored audience profiles and select the audience profile that best matches the user and his associated attributes. The MMP then serves an advertisement of the marketing campaign associated with the selected audience profile.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2013Publication date: March 13, 2014Applicant: Voltari Operating Corp.Inventors: David Castillo, Donald Kridel, Aaron Epstein

Patent number: 8365827Abstract: A series of jet nozzles have a telescoping structure designed to impact the borehole wall and initiate a fracture. The nozzles can be extended through fluid pumped through them or with some mechanical force from within the bottom hole assembly. The leading ends of the telescoping assembly can be sharp and hardened to facilitate the initiation of a formation fracture in an open hole. The telescoping structures can be disposed in a single or multiple rows with the circumferential spacing being such that each telescoping structure is designed to cover a target circumferential distance of 45 degrees or less so that jetted fluid from at least one jet will be within 22.5 degrees of a location of maximum formation stresses to reduce the tortuosity of the created fractures from jetting through the nozzles with possible enhancement of the fracturing from added annulus pressure.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2010Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignee: Baker Hughes IncorporatedInventors: Maria M.

Patent number: 8190369Abstract: A system and method for the geomechanical steering of the orientation of a wellbore is disclosed. In one embodiment, any available a priori data regarding the stress characteristics of a region of interest are used to develop a preliminary stress model for the region. A geosteered drilling operation is thereafter commenced, with the trajectory being steered in a direction relative to the stress model of the region. While drilling, real-time data is obtained from conventional down-hole instrumentation. The real-time data is used to refine the stress model for the region, such that the trajectory can be guided on an ongoing basis to achieve an optimal relationship with the measured stress characteristics of the region.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2008Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignee: Baker Hughes IncorporatedInventors: Daniel Moos, Gamal A.
