Abstract: A system may include one or more enterprise computing (EC) systems and a computing platform, which may include a sales data module, a content selection module, an account module, or a data storage. Each EC system may track target sales data for targets and send the target sales data to the computing platform. The sales data module may receive the target sales data, store the target sales data as sales data, dynamically calculate a threshold based on the sales data, and determine, from the target sales data associated with an target, whether the target sales data for the target is below the threshold. The content selection module may, in response to the target sales data for the target being below the threshold, select training content for the target, and send a notification to the target. The notification may include a link to access the training content.

An example embodiment operates by receiving a voice command directed to controlling a device, the voice command including a wake command and an action command. An amplitude of the wake command is determined. A gain adjustment for the voice command is calculated based on a comparison of the amplitude of the wake command to a target amplitude. An amplitude of the action command is adjusted based on the calculated gain adjustment for the voice command based on the comparison of the amplitude of the wake command to the target amplitude. A device command for controlling the device is identified based on the action command comprising the adjusted amplitude. The device command is provided to the device.

Abstract: A system receives patient information from a patient computing device and/or a user computing device via a first network connection. The system further receives clinic notes from a clinic computing system for the generation of an electronic medical report based on a personal injury of the patient via a second network connection. Instead of statically generating a report, the system generates the electronic medical report by obtaining medical reporting standards and identifying rules and/or frameworks that satisfy the medical reporting standards. Further, the system dynamically maps the rules to the frameworks in order to plan the electronic medical report. The system can dynamically build the electronic medical report based on the rules, the frameworks, the patient information, and the clinic notes. After generating the electronic medical report, the system causes display of the electronic medical report via a display of the user computing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods to control aerial vehicles in degraded operational states are described. For example, for an aerial vehicle having six propulsion mechanisms arranged around a fuselage, one or more modified control schemes may be implemented to maintain control and navigation of the aerial vehicle responsive to a motor out situation, such as a failure of one propulsion mechanism. The modified control schemes may seek to emulate normal operation of a quadcopter, and/or may seek to utilize all remaining propulsion mechanisms to maintain controllability of the aerial vehicle in all six degrees of freedom of movement.

Abstract: It is an objective of the present invention to provide users with a pick-up stick, that can pick up flat objects from the floor that are difficult to grab or reach. In order to accomplish that, the present invention comprises a battery operated, suction powered pick-up stick that is also retractable. According to the present invention, with the push of a button on the handle, the suction may be turned on and turned off. Further, the retractability and the low weight of the present invention enables a user to collapse and carry the pick-up stick in a small purse/pouch. Additionally, the present invention comprises one or more light at the tip of the pick-up stick for easy visibility. The present invention further comprises a tip that bends and flexes so that suction may be initiated from a desired direction and a grab is made efficiently.

Abstract: No-loss rapid recovery performs resynchronization efficiently while concurrently allowing availability to mirrored data on the storage device. No-loss rapid recovery has two stages and involves storage devices that have both a non-volatile cache and primary storage and that operate as mirror buddies. The first stage is referred to herein as the buddy-retention stage. During the buddy-retention stage, writes to mirrored data are not performed on the offline mirror buddy but are performed on the online mirror buddy. The mirrored data changed in the online mirrored buddy is retained in the non-volatile cache of the retention buddy. The next stage is referred to herein as the rapid resynchronization stage. In this stage, the changed mirrored data retained by the retention buddy for no-loss rapid recovery is used to resynchronize the offline buddy. The storage device is resynchronized using the changed mirrored data retained in the cache of the mirror buddy.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and software disclosed herein facilitate draft reminders. In at least one implementation, a primary view of an information management application is rendered. In various scenarios the primary view may include primary items, such as emails, events, tasks, or other types of items. When a reminder view is invoked, draft items are identified to include in the reminder view. The reminder view is then rendered in an overlaid manner with respect to the primary view and includes the draft items.

Abstract: In implementations of creating a communication group, a mobile device can receive a selection to enable communication of location information between devices that correspond to entities from a group of entities associated with a user of the mobile device. The mobile device can receive location information that describes a physical location or proximity of the devices that correspond to the entities, and present in a user interface on a display device, a visual representation that indicates at least one of the entities is at a location within a pre-set distance of the mobile device. A communication group can be created that includes the entities selected from the group of entities associated with the user of the mobile device. The mobile device can also communicate the location information of the mobile device to all of the devices that correspond to the entities as a group communication based on the communication group.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for booting a clustered management system is provided where the configuration information required to boot the system is stored within the system itself. The techniques cope with several issues including finding the configuration data on the physical disk before the logical disk system is established, coping with replicated copies of configuration data, network partitions and disk drive failures that may prevent a booting node to have perfect knowledge of the state of the entire system, and active nodes modifying or moving configuration data while the booting node is searching for a consistent, correct copy of configuration data.

Abstract: This document describes tools capable of enabling users of mobile communication devices to create communication groups quickly and easily. With such a communication group a user may call, text, or instant message all persons in the group at once by selecting the communication group rather than each person in the group. In one embodiment, the tools enable a user to build a communication group by dragging and dropping indicators for persons he or she knows from one area of a screen into another area. In another embodiment, the tools automatically collect persons from those that the user knows based on one or more criteria. The user may then easily create a communication group of those collected persons, such as by tapping on an area of a mobile device's display.
