Abstract: A remote vehicle theft-prevention and recovery device is provided. The device is comprised of a module with a plurality of structures and features to prevent successful vehicle theft. Said features include an audible alarm, a camera, the ability to activate the hazard lights of the vehicle, the ability to lock the doors and windows of the vehicle, limiting the acceleration of the vehicle, and viewing the real-time GPS location of the vehicle. Said features can be controlled by a user via a remote fob or a mobile application.

Abstract: There is described a metal workpiece generally having a surface and an identifier marked on said surface. The identifier has cells each having a corresponding cell size, including bright cells corresponding to a first binary value and dark cells corresponding to a second binary value different from the first binary value. The dark cells include a center portion being recessed relative to the surface thereby leaving a recess bounded by a peripheral wall in the corresponding dark cell, the recess having a depth of at least 100 microns and having an opening with a width ranging between 400 microns and 1750 microns and representing between 30 percent and 99 percent of the corresponding cell size such that the corresponding dark cell appears dark to an optical reader. The depth, the width and the cell size of the dark cells provide a shot blast resistance to the laser-marked identifier.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer-readable storage media relate to determining optimal treatment information. The methods may include determining a dose distribution for one or more target regions by applying a deformation parameter to a treatment plan dose distribution for a subset of a plurality of phases. The method may also include determining one or more dose parameters based on the dose distribution for the subset of the plurality of phases. The one or more dose parameters may represent a motion of the dose distribution over the plurality of phases for each region. The method may further include determining optimal treatment information based on the one or more dose parameters. The optimal treatment information may include optimal phase and associated dose distribution and the optimal phase may be a phase having a minimum total dose for the one or more target regions.
