Abstract: A positioning device includes a base extending in a horizontal plane, a support post extending along a vertical axis, a detachable headrest subassembly attached to an end of the support post opposite the base, an arm rest subassembly attached to the support post between the headrest subassembly and the base, a thoracic support subassembly attached to the support post between the armrest subassembly and the base, A thoracic support cushion is attached to the support post by a bar. The attachment is reconfigurable to vary an orientation and location of the cushion with respect to the vertical axis, a footrest subassembly attached to the support post between the thoracic support subassembly and the base, and a digital device holder attached to the positioned device by a flexible arm, the flexible arm configured to support a digital device in view of the patient during use of the positioning device.

Abstract: The packet processing system, according to an example embodiment, comprises a Network Interface Controller (NIC) to receive and transmit network packets; a memory unit for storing network packets; a processor for processing network packets stored in the memory unit; a cache unit to access all data to the processor from the memory unit; and an application process running on the processing unit. The NIC includes a packet processing means to process the network packets received by the NIC. The packet processing means includes a Contiguous Header Mapping/Map (CHM) header-data splitter to split said network packets into a header portion and a payload portion; a table or equivalent to store the contiguous header-data split configuration data; and a packet Direct Memory Access (DMA) unit to DMA copy said header portion and said payload portion into separate memory area/location and contiguously map said header portion of network packets in the memory unit.
