  • Patent number: 12192062
    Abstract: Methods are presented herein for a reduced state machine that describes nodes and relationship dynamics representing real network elements (networking devices and software processes) in a computer/data network, and abstracted logical items. Logical states of networking features of the network elements are reflected in the graph, while configuration data is stored for completeness. A method called a “Versioner Algorithm” is provided to record the temporal history of a node and its state over time within the node's metadata itself, while recorded relationships represent logical relations between observed nodes. A method is also provided to time-travel back to observe a historical view of the network. Further still, a method is provided to a difference of two historical topologies and return that data in human-readable or machine consumable form.

  • Publication number: 20240362968
    Abstract: A system and method(s) to perform operations that include detecting user input that indicates use of a gaming machine. The operations further include gathering, in response to detection of the user input, prompt-related data. The prompt-related data can include any relevant or available information associated with use of, or a user of, the gaming machine. The operations further include generating, based on the prompt-related data, a prompt. The operations further include dynamically generating, via a machine learning model using the prompt, original gaming content. The operations further include presenting, via a presentation device of the gaming machine, the dynamically generated gaming content.

  • Publication number: 20230330335
    Abstract: An insulin management method implemented by an insulin delivery device is provided. The method includes detecting a starting activity associated with preparation of use of the insulin delivery device in the form of an automatic insulin delivery device attachable to a user's body for a duration of a fasting period within an overall time period. The method includes initiating automated delivery of insulin in the form correction bolus doses in response to periodically received blood glucose measurements during the fasting period. Other methods, devices and systems are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20230330334
    Abstract: According to some embodiments, an insulin management method implemented by an insulin delivery system is provided. The method includes determining an assumed insulin on board based on an assumed external dose calculated to correct an initial blood glucose value of the user to a target blood glucose. The method includes delivering insulin from an insulin delivery device with the insulin in the form of a plurality of correction bolus doses during a fasting period in response to received blood glucose measurements, the correction bolus doses compensated for by a determined insulin on board, wherein for at least a first correction bolus dose of the plurality of correction bolus doses the determined insulin on board equals the assumed insulin on board. Other systems, devices and methods are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20230330336
    Abstract: An insulin management method is provided. The method includes providing an insulin delivery device, wherein the insulin delivery device is in the form of an automatic insulin delivery device attachable to a user's body for the duration of a fasting period. The method includes delivering insulin from the insulin delivery device during the fasting period within an overall time period in the form of correction bolus doses of insulin in response to received blood glucose measurements. The insulin delivery device refrains from administering basal insulin at a preset or default rate or in a preset or default pattern. Insulin is received by the user from a non-fasting insulin management modality during a non-fasting period within the overall time period and the non-fasting insulin management modality provides at least one of a basal dose of insulin and bolus doses of insulin. Other methods, devices and systems are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20230270933
    Abstract: A medication fluid delivery device and methods are provided with the delivery device having a dispensing unit and a drive unit that are attachable together. The dispensing unit includes a dispenser for delivering medication fluid to a user and a reservoir configured to be filled with a variable amount of medication fluid received from a medication fluid injector. The drive unit includes a control unit that controls the drive unit and causes medication fluid in the reservoir to be pumped through the dispenser and includes a registration mechanism configured to act with the dispensing unit to determine a state the reservoir including an initial level of the filled reservoir.

  • Patent number: 7101060
    Abstract: A submersible light (10) comprising a lens (12) sealed to the front of the reflector (20), a replaceable light source (22) housed in an aperture (25) in the reflector, a pressure member (30) positioned behind the reflector to define an air chamber (32) open at the base of the light but in sealed communication with the aperture whereby, in use, as the light becomes submerged liquid enters the base of the pressure member to pressurise the air within the pressure member to in turn form a pocket of pressurised air in the space between the lens and the reflector and thus prevent entry of liquid into that space.
