The method also includes providing computer-assisted navigation configured to guide the physical implant into physical rotational alignment with the planned rotational orientation of the virtual implant model.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining a surgical plan including a removal of a first physical implant from a bone and a replacement of the first physical implant with a second physical implant. The method also includes receiving a first virtual model including a first virtual implant model relative to a first virtual bone surface of a bone. The first virtual bone surface represents a first bone surface to which the first physical implant is coupled. The method also includes identifying a second bone surface resulting from removal of the first physical implant from the bone by tracking a position of a surgical tool relative to the bone. The method also includes detecting a discrepancy between the first bone surface and the second bone surface and displaying, on a graphical user interface, a visualization of the discrepancy.

Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus are provided for accelerated atomic resource allocation on a multiprocessor platform. In particular, a resource allocation engine (RAE) performs the following: counting available units for each of the one or more resources; parsing a multi-resource ticket (MRT) for a processor, wherein the parsing identifies one or more requested resource types, each resource type being paired with a requested resource units; comparing the multi-resource ticket to one or more resource queues for the requested resource types, wherein the comparing determines an availability status of at least one the requested resource types; and based on the availability status, calculating whether or not all of the requested resource types can be allocated for the processor, wherein the calculating is completed before allocating a next requested resource for a next processor.

Abstract: Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) reader system, software, and methods are provided, such that an operational processing block for the RFID reader to communicate with an RFID tag uses a RF spectrum portion subdivided into a set of channels. The communication takes place in the presence of a foreign device that uses a subset of first channels of the RF spectrum and does not use a subset of second channels of the spectrum. The methods cause a radiating power directed towards the tag to be reduced and a radiating dwell time to be changed. This is to assure that co-existing systems can operate without compromising their functionality and operational quality. In some embodiments, the radiating power is reduced to zero.
