  • Patent number: 9870597
    Abstract: Systems and methods for allowing landlords to combine information from a retail electric provider into landlord billed utilities and items, are described herein. In one aspect, residency information for a unit associated with a resident is received. Resource consumption or usage information associated with the unit is received from one retail electric provider. A consolidated data set is generated based on the resource consumption or usage information for the unit from both the retail electric provider and landlord provided services such as rent, water, trash and sewer. Under this process, a resident may choose to have the electric account remain in the landlord's name and then be billed for such retail electric charges on the same bill as the landlord provided utilities and services. In some implementations, the community will collect funds for the utility bills from each resident and will use such funds to pay the utility provider directly.

  • Publication number: 20170324504
    Abstract: Method and apparatus of a network configuration configured to permit a dense wavelength division multiplexing (“DWDM”) element to connect to a storage server, an Internet Protocol (“IP”) router, and DWDM network are disclosed. The configuration includes the DWDM network, storage area network (“SAN”) server, IP router, and optical transport network (“OTN”) switch. While the DWDM network transports information via optical fibers, the DWDM switch is coupled to the DWDM network for transporting optical signals. The SAN server is coupled to a port of the DWDM switch and is configured to store data at a remote location. The IP router which is coupled to the DWDM switch facilitates IP traffic between a user and the DWDM network. The OTN switch, coupled to the first DWDM switch, is capable of processing at least a portion of the optical signals.

  • Publication number: 20170296785
    Abstract: Various embodiments include a catheter positioning device that may include a sled member, a sled base, an active damping system, a sensor, and a control system. The sled member may be configured to accept a handle of a catheter. The sled base may be configured to move the sled member along a length of the sled base for positioning the catheter within a patient. The active damping system may be configured to apply a force to the sled base to resist movement of the sled base in response to a control signal. The sensor may be configured to generate signals in response to a movement of the sled base. The control system may be configured to receive sensor signals from the sensor and transmit control signals to cause the active damping system to apply the force to resist movement of the sled base indicated in the received sensor signals.
