Abstract: In a method for data recovery in a continuous data protection system, delta values representing an exclusive disjunction between successive values of data block contents of a content fragment of a dataset at a time t(n) and a time t(n?1) for n=1 to i, where i is selected according to a predetermined data protection profile, are generated. The delta values can be used to recover a dataset to a value at the selected point in time in association with a snapshot that is selected as a starting point for recovery based on a cost analysis associated with a volume of disk activity to restore.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing disputes in biometric-enabled network interactions. One example computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a biometric identity switch (BIS), a dispute notification for a biometric-enabled network interaction involving an account of a user, and retrieving biometric data specific to the biometric-enabled network interaction. The method also includes determining, by the BIS) whether the biometric data is representative of the user and, in response to the biometric data not being representative of the user, requesting, from a biometric service provider, a biometric identifier for an additional user, based on the biometric data.

Abstract: A unique carbon fiber structure that achieves the strength and durability of steel tower alternatives at 90% less weight and a lower total installed cost, providing affordable carbon fiber telecommunication towers that are engineered for peak strength to weight performance wherein the carbon fiber structure is a vertical elongated tower body of decreasing area with an internal installation shaft provided therein to house one or more radio base stations wherein the tower may be made of multiple cylindrical or cone shaped hollow segments with a shaved upper portion whereby the segments are created with carbon fiber and fiberglass hoop windings.

Abstract: A recharging and medication storage hub for a re-usable drug-delivery device is provided. According to some embodiments, the hub comprises a housing defining a port sized to receive at least part of the re-usable drug-delivery device, a charging station disposed on the housing configured to charge a rechargeable power source mounted on the drug-delivery device, and a medication storage chamber disposed in alignment with the port, the storage chamber configured to store a single-use medication cartridge. When at least part of the drug-delivery device is inserted through the port and into the medication storage chamber, a coupling mechanism is configured to releasably couple with and withdraw the medication cartridge from the medication storage chamber. In some embodiments, the hub may further comprise a temperature-changing device configured to control an interior temperature of the medication storage chamber.

Abstract: Acoustic valve for a hearing device, including a valve body defining a passageway, and a seat member and shutter member inside the valve body. The shutter member defines a shutter surface that forms a contact portion and a non-contact portion. The shutter member is moveable relative to the seat member to transition the valve between an opened state, wherein the shutter member is removed from the seat member and the passageway is open to allow sound to pass, and a closed state wherein the contact portion abuts the seat member and the non-contact portion blocks the passageway to restrict passage of sound. The contact portion forms a protruding structure that extends from the non-contact portion and towards the seat member, and has a small width along at least one transverse direction to minimise a contact area between the contact portion and the seat member when the valve is closed.
