Abstract: Techniques for modifying a query based on a data index of nodes in a data set are disclosed. A system modifies queries based on query terms associated with indexed data. The system modifies queries to include query terms based on indexed data or to obtain values for query terms that are not associated with indexed node properties. The system adds query terms, that reference indexed data, to a query in response to determining that none of a query's terms reference indexed data. The system derives values for query terms that are not associated with indexed node properties using a logical or mathematical formula. The system traverses parent nodes of a child node to identify values for query terms that are not associated with the child node in a data index, but are inherited from a parent node.

Abstract: A method of sending an emergency alert from a wearable device. The wearable device is connected to a low-power wide area cellular network and to global positioning services as soon as it is turned on. The wearable device receives inputs from the user and/or from at least one sensor located within the wearable device measuring parameters associated with the status of the user. A determination is then made if an emergency condition has occurred, if so, an emergency alert is transmitted to recipients based on a configured set of emergency contacts. The determining of an emergency condition occurs based on the inputs received through the wearable device or by the inputs received by the at least one sensor corresponding with a set of rules established for determining if an emergency alert should be sent.

Abstract: A biopsy site marker includes a carrier, and a marker element. The marker element includes a primary coil, a first anchor and a second anchor. The primary coil is disposed within the carrier. At least a portion of the first anchor and the second anchor extend outwardly from opposite sides of the carrier. The first anchor and second anchor are configured to move relative to the primary coil to engage tissue at a biopsy site.

Abstract: A database manager is disclosed that retrieves database records having binary encoded data from a database and instantiating objects in an in-memory database. Binary encoding compresses data, allowing many subrecords to be stored a single blob field of a database record. Retrieving chunks from storage reduces transfer time by reducing the size of data and the number of operations needed to retrieve all the subrecords. The database manager receives database access requests from a database application. Changes made to the database objects and committed by the application are written back to the persistent database as versioned delta records. In a subsequent session, loading the database from storage includes first loading the most recent snapshot record, then applying changes to the data stored in delta records. The changes stored in the delta records are applied to the data in the snapshot record in the order in which they were made.

Abstract: A biopsy site marker includes a carrier and a marker element. The marker element is disposed within the carrier. The carrier including a first marker material and a second marker material. The first marker material and the second marker material are each configured to expand in the presence of moisture. The first marker material is configured to expand at a rapid rate relative to the second marker material in the presence of moisture.

Abstract: Embodiments of systems, methods and apparatuses for a parser for generating one or more data structures representative of a structured document are disclosed. More specifically, embodiments of a parser may comprise hardware circuitry operable to receive a structured document, begin parsing the structured document as it is being received and generating the data structures representative of the structured document as it is being parsed.

Abstract: Computer systems and methods of operating a computer system are described. The computer system can include a computer rack; a first stack and a second stack provided in the computer rack, each stack comprising one or more computers; a first cooling plenum configured such that cooling air can flow between the computers in the first stack and the first cooling plenum; and a second cooling plenum configured such that cooling air can flow between the computers in the second stack and the second cooling plenum.

Abstract: A device for automatically collecting loose pet hair, debris and allergens from a pet as the pet enters or leaves the device where the pet is fed, thus keeping the pet owner's house cleaner. The device is a container consisting of three interconnected compartments. Loose particles are removed from the pet by air suction as the pet passes through collector plate assemblies in the first compartment to reach its food in the second compartment. A fan that induces the air suction in the first compartment and the filter that removes the hair from the air stream are both located in the third compartment. A sensor in the second compartment signals a receiver associated with the fan to turn the fan on and off based on the presence of an animal within the device. An optional second exit with a one way door can be provided in the second compartment.
