  • Patent number: 11883540
    Abstract: The present application relates to a vehicle whose shell material is modified with at least one additional secondary phase that acts as a cork. In the presence of an energy source (preferably ultrasound), the corks embedded in the shell are either removed from the shell to create permanent pores or perturbed within the shell to create transient pores that can control transport in or out of the vehicle.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 14, 2021
    Date of Patent: January 30, 2024
    Assignee: McMaster University
    Inventors: Todd Hoare, Jonathan Dorogin, David Koff, Andrew Singh
  • Patent number: 11244076
    Abstract: The presented application is a method for enabling verifiable trust in collaborative data sharing environments. The architecture supports the human-in-the-loop paradigm by establishing trust between participants, including human researchers and AI systems, by making all data transformations transparent and verifiable by all participants.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: February 8, 2022
    Inventors: Andrew Sutton, Reza Samavi, Thomas E. Doyle, David Koff

  • Patent number: 8724867
    Abstract: A method of distributing an image study to a chosen image reader is disclosed having steps of receiving an image study from an image producer at a third party communication module, sending a receive notification message to a messaging layer, sending a study available notification message from the messaging layer to a workload distribution engine wherein the available notification message includes extracted image study information pulled from study headers of the image study, identifying image study rules from the extracted image study information, applying an image study complexity to the image study based on the image study rules, calculating image reader complexities for a plurality of image readers subscribed to receive image studies from the image producer, each of the image reader complexities calculated using the image study complexity and an Image reader profile assigned to each of the plurality of accredited image readers, selecting the chosen image reader from the plurality of image readers based on

  • Publication number: 20020035634
    Abstract: A computerized method of creating a data message for electronic transmission to a recipient includes selecting at least one image file to be included in the data message. Exchange rights for the recipient are determined and establish at least one action available to the recipient with respect to handling of the at least one image file. The at least one image file and the exchange rights are then bundled to form the data message.
