Abstract: Techniques regarding managing one or more software application build processes are provided. For example, one or more embodiments described herein can comprise a system, which can comprise a memory that can store computer executable components. The system can also comprise a processor, operably coupled to the memory, and that can execute the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a control component that can execute a freeze algorithm that modifies an incorporation of a software artifact within a software application build set. The freeze algorithm can prevent implementation of a change to the software artifact by a version control program.

Abstract: A surgical glove has inner and outer surfaces. At least one of the surfaces is treated with a treatment consisting of a non-ionic hydrocarbon solution with a carbon chain in the range of 8-16 and containing a hydrophilic functionality with a pH within the range 4.5-6.5. After treatment, the treated surface or surfaces are dried, the glove packaged and then irradiated. The treatment controls the initial contact angle of the surface to be less than 70 degrees, so that liquid material will spread quickly across the treated surface or surfaces, thereby ensuring that the presence of the liquid, indicative of the glove having been compromised, is visible to the wearer or other observer as quickly as possible.

Abstract: A method for producing a measurement structure for measuring alignment of patterns formed in one or more layers of patternable material uses multiple exposure tools having different resolution limits and maximum expose field sizes. The measurement structure includes multiple complementary and coincident parts. An abutting field pattern is exposed and stitched in a layer of patternable material using a first exposure tool and a first mask. The abutting field pattern includes a first portion of the multiple complementary parts. A periphery pattern is exposed in the same layer or in a different layer of patternable material using a second exposure tool and a second mask. The periphery pattern includes a second portion of the multiple complementary parts. A maximum expose field of the first exposure tool is smaller than the maximum expose field of the second exposure tool.

Abstract: A radiation imaging system includes a radiation head with a radiation source and an adjustable angular orientation. A radiation image detection device has a photostimulable medium that records an image according to radiation emitted from the radiation source. A measurement sensor apparatus, preferably inertial, is coupled sequentially to the photostimulable medium to provide three-dimensional data for determining the angular orientation of the photostimulable medium and to the radiation source for determining its angular orientation. There is at least one indicator responsive to the orientation data from the measurement sensor apparatus for indicating an orientation adjustment of the radiation source is needed in at least one direction.

Abstract: A method for distributing digital medical images between an capture device and a image display device remote from the capture device when a user desires to reprocess an enhanced digital medical image at the image display device. The user initiates a request from the image display device for the unenhanced digital medical image stored at the image capture device, and the request from the image display device is transmitted to the image capture device. The unenhanced digital medical image is then transmitted from the image capture device to the image display device.

Abstract: A method and system is provided so that requests to a first application (e.g., an LDAP directory) are routed to a second application, the second application being trusted by the first application. The second application validates the requests and sends the request to the first software application when the first application is available. Requests may be queued for processing until the first application is available so that the requests remain pending. A reply may be sent to the requester indicating the results of the request. The second software application processes authentication and validation of the request thereby relieving the first application of this function. Since the second application is a trusted application, the request to the first application may be applied with improved efficiencies increasing the overall performance of the first software application.

Abstract: A method of forming a composite digital image comprising: providing 1-N digital images formed from 1-N contiguous segments of a larger radiographic image recorded in 1-N overlapping storage phosphor screens wherein N is equal to or greater than 2 and wherein the image content in the overlapped region of contiguous images is the same, and the end edge of a screen nearest an x-ray source is present in both contiguous images; selecting a pair of contiguous digital images, wherein one image is closer to said x-ray source than said other image; correcting for any geometric distortion if applicable in said pair of digital images based on the distance between x-ray source and said storage phosphor screen; determining any rotational displacement and any vertical displacement between said pair of digital images by matching said end edge of said one image present in said pair of images correcting for image orientation if applicable based on any said rotational displacement; determining any horizontal displacement betwe

Abstract: A method of transferring a plurality of digital images captured by a digital camera to a computer and for processing such digital images includes using the digital camera to capture a plurality of digital images of one or more scenes; transferring such captured digital images to the computer wherein they are stored in a memory; and continuing the capture and transfer of digital images to the memory while simultaneously processing other digital images stored in the memory which were previously captured by the cam era wherein such processing produces digital images which are suitable for subsequent use.
