Corresponding computer program products and methods are also provided.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to a mapping management computer system. According to various embodiments, the mapping management computer system may be configured for updating geographical maps by assessing map data and operational data including vehicle telematics data to identify portions of a vehicle path that do not correspond to known travel paths. In various embodiments, the system is configured to define these identified portions as new known travel paths corresponding to a public road, private road, parking lot lane, or the like, and update the map data to reflect the new known travel paths.

Abstract: Computer program products, methods, systems, apparatus, and computing entities are provided for segmenting operational data and identifying events of interested in the segmented operational data. With the events of interest identified from the segmented operational data, a total time between the events of interest can be determined, evaluated, and provided.

Abstract: According to various embodiments, a fleet management system is provided for capturing, storing, and analyzing telematics data to improve fleet management operations. The fleet management system may be used, for example, by a shipping entity (e.g., a common carrier) to capture telematics data from a plurality of vehicle sensors located on various delivery vehicles and to analyze the captured telematics data. In particular, various embodiments of the fleet management system are configured to analyze engine idle data in relation to other telematics data in order to identify inefficiencies, safety hazards, and theft hazards in a driver's delivery process. The fleet management system may also be configured to assess various aspects of vehicle performance, such as vehicle travel delays and vehicle speeds.

Abstract: Provided is a last round bolt hold-open mechanism for a firearm with a removable ammunition magazine and a longitudinally reciprocating bolt that automatically releases the bolt when a loaded ammunition magazine is inserted. The mechanism includes a frame mountable to a firearm receiver and having a pair of mounting flanges. A catch member is pivotally mounted on a pivot axle oriented transverse to the longitudinal reciprocation of the bolt and carried by the mounting flanges. The catch member has a rearward portion that moves between bolt blocking and bolt release positions and is spring biased toward the bolt blocking position. A forwardly extending finger is configured to be lifted by the presence of at least one ammunition cartridge in the magazine and, when lifted, causes the catch member to pivot to the bolt release position.

Abstract: COVID-19 results from the infection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and has spread quickly to literally infected the world. Although coronavirus spike proteins can recognize a broad range of host cell-surface proteins, inhibiting spike protein binding to a survival factor called GRP78 results in a significant reduction in SARS-CoV-2 attachment, entry and replication in lung and kidney cells. This inhibition is accomplished with a novel type of inhibitor that potently blocks the binding of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and whole virus to surface-bound GRP78. These novel GRP78 inhibitors also down regulate cytokines (IL10, IL6), immune co-inhibitory checkpoint proteins (PD-L1, B7H3, B7H4), and up regulate immune co-stimulatory proteins (MHC-II, CD-86) resulting in the reduction of the immune suppressive nature of infected lung alveolar epithelial cells in vitro and in vivo. Finally, these novel GRP78 inhibitors inhibit the hyperfibrinolysis of infected lung cells by reducing the activation of plasmin on cell surfaces.
