Abstract: Methods and computer program products for establishing communication events between an initiator user and a recipient user over a first communication system. The initiator and recipient users are contacts within a second communication system but are not contacts within the first communication system. For the initiator and recipient users, an association between a first user identity in the first communication system and a second user identity in the second communication system is determined. The initiator user device uses the association for the recipient user to determine the first user identity of the recipient user. A setup request to establish the communication event is sent over the first communication system from a first initiator client to a first recipient client. A communication event is authorized to proceed over the first communication system on the basis that the initiator user and the recipient user are contacts within the second communication system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to directly and securely transferring encrypted medical data between parties, wherein a sender generates an encrypted access code. The access code is provided to a recipient who can then view the medical data without requiring cloud and virtual private network infrastructures, and which eliminate the need for medical data to be stored on physical media and physically carried to a recipient's location. The invention empowers patients to view, share, and manage their medical data, and facilitates the preservation of the continuum of care.

Abstract: A new, rapid and inexpensive synthesis method for monodispersed triaminotrinitrobenzene (TATB) microparticles based on micelle-confined precipitation that enables control of microscopic morphology. The morphology of the TATB microparticles can be tuned between quasi-spherical and faceted by controlling the speed of recrystallization.

Abstract: A description of a user is estimated based on the context of a user's past and present locations. A disclosed data-processing system continually receives data points for each user that represent spatial and/or temporal events. These events represent, for example, presence of a person at a specific geographic location such as a geographic area or point of interest (POI). The data-processing system evaluates the received data points in relation to one or more of the geographic locations, yielding results that are also based on the demographic characteristics of each visited location and the commercial characteristics of each visited location. The data-processing system evaluates the data points also to determine patterns exhibited in each user's activity or inactivity, and patterns exhibited in the distance traveled and the type of travel. The data-processing system bases the user descriptions on the results of these evaluations.

Abstract: A surfactant-assisted self-assembly method can be used to crystallize energetic materials with controlled morphology. Microparticles of hexanitrohexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20) formed by this method may have enhanced functional reproducibility due to their monodisperse nature, and decreased shock sensitivity due to their sub-2 ?m particle size.

Abstract: Observation assisted bandwidth management techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a request is received at a terminal to initiate a call with another terminal. Responsive to the request, a communication is formed to be communicated to a service provider for bandwidth parameters, the request including network parameters associated with the terminal. The bandwidth parameters, received form the service provider, are used as part of a model to estimate an amount of bandwidth that is available for the call. The call with the other terminal is initiated, the call configured to at least initially consume the estimated amount of bandwidth.

Abstract: The inventive system processes large quantities of client data. The inventive system can include an inbound message gateway (IMG) which receives event data from a plurality of clients. The IMG performs one or more processes on the event data and transmits sample data streams to an analytics cluster that includes a plurality of physical hardware nodes. Each of the physical hardware nodes can include a plurality of processes at a plurality of different time granularities. Database shards store recorded data from each of the processes in the physical nodes.

Abstract: A technique is disclosed for ranking venues and for providing a user with one or more of the ranked venues. To do so, a data processing system trains a model during a first, training sequence, by using a training dataset of past check-ins that were made by users visiting venues. The trained model, representing a learned hypothesis, represents venues that are ranked according to their relevance to users who are also represented by the model. During a second, run-time sequence, the system receives real-time geolocation data that represents users and generates a set of candidate venues for a user by determining venues that are nearby the geolocation of the user. The system then ranks the generated candidate venues by applying the learned hypothesis. One or more of the ranked venues can be provided to a user's wireless terminal, for example, where they can be presented as venue recommendations.
