Abstract: A system for element tracking in documents includes a memory device, a database, and a processor. The memory device is configured to store a mapping in a memory between a linked element within a document and a database object. The database is configured to store the database object. The processor is configured to in response to an update of the database object: a) cause storage in the database of an update event associated with the linked element; and b) provide an update indication that the update associated with the linked element has occurred.

Abstract: The present invention discloses improvements to mechanical and electro-mechanical force simulators for aircraft pilot controllers, and particularly foot-actuated controllers. In particular, the invention replaces conventional foot-actuated, pilot controller systems—namely, those that employ multiple, discrete, motion control subsystems to control the various force simulation and trim functions used in modern aircraft to assist pilot control of a given axis of flight—with a single motion control system. The invention accomplishes this in part by eliminating the force-feel spring used in conventional, federated, foot-actuated, motor-coupled pilot controllers.

Abstract: Water tap (2) or water valve assembly is provided which has biometric recognition means (20) provided on or associated with the same. The biometric recognition means (20) are arranged such that operation of the water tap (2) or water valve assembly and/or operation of one or more functions of the water tap (2) or water valve assembly takes place only upon recognition or a positive match of one or more biometric features of a user.

Abstract: Systems, computer-implemented methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are provided for sharing medical data. The disclosed systems may be configured to create a first workgroup having a first knowledgebase. This first knowledgebase may be federated with a common knowledgebase, and with a second knowledgebase of a second workgroup. At least one of the first knowledgebase, common knowledgebase, and second knowledgebase may be configured to store data items comprising associations, signs, and evidence. The signs may comprise measurements and contexts, and the associations may describe the relationships between the measurements and contexts. The evidence may support these associations. The disclosed systems may be configured to receive a request from a user in the first workgroup, retrieve matching data items, and optionally then output to the user at least some of the retrieved matching data items. The request may comprise at least one of a first association and a first measurement.

Abstract: The present invention relates to recombinant cells and microorganisms of the phylum Labyrinthulomycota and their use in heterologous protein production. Novel promoter, terminator, and signal sequences for efficient production and, optionally, secretion of polypeptides from recombinant host cells and microorganisms are also encompassed by the present invention.

Abstract: This disclosure concerns a novel modular docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) synthase and recombinant host organisms genetically modified with such synthase and one or more accessory proteins that allow for and/or improve the production of PUFAs in the host organism. The disclosure also concerns methods of making and using such organisms as well as products obtained from such organisms.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of molecular biology and cell biology. More specifically, the present invention trelates to a CRISPR-Cas system for a Labyrinthulomycetes host cell.

Abstract: A method of improving the photoluminescence of silicon nanoparticles is provided along with a description of the silicon nanoparticle compositions prepared therefrom. The method generally comprises exposing a composition comprising silicon nanoparticles having a mean particle diameter not greater than 5 nm and a fluid to a non-ambient condition selected from (i) elevated temperature, (ii) elevated humidity, (iii) elevated pressure exerted by an oxygen-containing gas, (iv) a hydrogen plasma, (v) hydrogen gas, (vi) ultraviolet radiation, and (vii) and a combination of at least two of (i)-(vi). Optionally, the silicon nanoparticles may be prepared by a gas phase reaction. The exposure of the silicon nanoparticle compositions to the non-ambient condition results in improved photoluminescence. In particular, the exposed nanoparticles exhibit increased maximum emission intensity and luminescent quantum efficiency.

Abstract: The present invention provides biological oils and methods and uses thereof. The biological oils are preferably produced by heterotrophic fermentation of one or more microorganisms using cellulose-containing feedstock as a main source of carbon. The present invention also provides methods of producing lipid-based biofuels and food, nutritional, and pharmaceutical products using the biological oils.

Abstract: A crane boom has three telescoping sections which move consistently in a sequential pattern between extended and retracted positions. When extending, the outer section moves first, followed by the middle section. When retracting, the middle section moves first, followed by the outer section. A pair of hydraulic actuators with a series of valves control the extension and retraction of the outer and middle boom sections.

Abstract: A system for displaying a product is disclosed. The system includes a wall having a recess therein and a display structure that defines the recess. The display structure extends through a front surface of the wall and includes a frame having a top panel, a bottom panel, and two side panels. The top and bottom panels are longer than the side panels. The system further includes a plurality of modular display units disposed within the display structure. Each modular display unit extends from the bottom panel to the top panel. At least a first one of the modular display units includes a frame open to a front exterior of the display structure and at least a second one of the modular display units is not open to the front exterior of the display structure. The system further includes a plurality of display elements disposed within the plurality of display units.
