Abstract: Described herein is a computer implemented method. The method comprises receiving, by an issue tracking system, a deployment update from a deployment system which includes deployment information in respect of one or more issues maintained by the issue tracking system. The method further comprises associating one or more issues maintained by the issue tracking system with deployment information by identifying the one or more issues to which the deployment information in the deployment update relates, extracting the deployment information from the deployment update, and associating the deployment information with each of the identified issues.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for performing diagnostics on patient devices (720). The patient devices (720) may include respiratory therapy devices that operate in accordance with instruction sets, such as software or firmware. A server (710) may maintain a database of diagnostic data (718) indicating faults in one or more of a plurality of patient devices (720). The server (710) may transmit this diagnostic data (718) to one or more computing devices (760), including identification of faults that have occurred. The server (710) may also transmit service data to the plurality of patient devices (720) in order to address the identified faults.

Abstract: A System Platform establishes a Genuine User ID (“GUID”), creates a user profile for an Intended User, generates a unique data set based upon input associated with the user profile and a digital device it has registered to the Intended User. The output of the GUID in combination with the output of an algorithm in a provisioning application enables the digital device to respond to Access Requests at an Access Point. The response from the genuine Intended User's application on their genuine digital device produces a unique data package which combines the GUID, a device ID for the digital device and the output of the algorithm using the payload obtained from one or more data management sources. The unique data package can be tailored for many different uses by the intended user, including uses which are attended or unattended, with varying levels of security.

Abstract: A System Platform establishes a Genuine User ID (“GUID”) (based upon input received from an Identity Management Source), creates a user profile for an Intended User, generates a unique data set based upon input associated with the user profile and a digital device it has registered to the Intended User, which is securely provisioned on the digital device. The output of the GUID in combination with the output of an algorithm in a provisioning application enables the digital device to respond to Access Requests at an Access Point. The response from the genuine Intended User's application on their genuine digital device produces a unique data package which combines the GUID, a device ID for the digital device and the output of the algorithm using the payload obtained from one or more data management sources.

Abstract: A system and method for automated dictionary population is provided to facilitate the entry of textual material in dictionaries for enhancing word prediction. The automated dictionary population system is useful in association with a mobile device including at least one dictionary which includes entries. The device receives a communication which is parsed and textual data extracted. The text is compared to the entries of the dictionaries to identify new words. Statistical information for the parsed words, including word usage frequency, recency, or likelihood of use, is generated. Profanities may be processed by identifying profanities, modifying the profanities, and asking the user to provide feedback. Phrases are identified by phrase markers. Lastly, the new words are stored in a supplementary word list as single words or by linking the words of the identified phrases to preserve any phrase relationships. Likewise, the statistical information may be stored.

Abstract: Computer-implemented method and system are provided for verifying a financial instrument. The method comprises receiving, via a user interface, a request to use a financial instrument. A transaction processor initiates at least one transaction having a variable detail, using the financial instrument, and saves the variable detail. A requested detail relating to the at least one transaction is received via the user interface and the transaction processor compares the stored detail with the requested detail. The transaction processor authorizes the use of the financial instrument in response to receiving the correct input that matches the saved variable detail.

Abstract: Computer-implemented method and system are provided for verifying a financial instrument. The method comprises receiving identification of a source of funds; generating, using at least one processor, a series of verifying transactions involving the source of funds, transaction details of the series of verifying transactions varying from one transaction to another; storing the variable transaction details; initiating the series of verifying transactions; receiving provided transaction details from a user; comparing the variable transaction details with the provided transaction details; and selectively approving the use of the source of funds by the user, based on a result of the comparison of the variable transaction details with the provided transaction details.

Abstract: A new system-level approach to managing the delivery of DC voltage and current. Several system level functions may be enabled without requiring separate ICs to perform those functions. Supervisory functions for a voltage converter may be performed by a central control module or chip that may be coupled to point-of-load voltage converters comprised in digital power management devices (DPMD) through a serial digital bus. The DPMDs may also use the high-speed serial digital bus to provide real-time feedback information to the central control module or chip. Single DPMDs may be combined together in a current sharing configuration in a “plug-and-play” fashion, where the control logic in each DPMD is capable of automatically establishing control loops required a multi-phase supply. Feedback necessary for establishing control may be transmitted across the digital bus coupling the devices.

Abstract: In a vortex separator for use in at least partially removing suspended solids from a liquid containing suspended solids, the inlet port (8), whereby the liquid is introduced tangentially into a vortex chamber, has a substantially rectangular cross-section at a curved internal wall surface (2) of the chamber and the long axis of the rectangle is preferably aligned substantially parallel with the longitudinal axis of the curved internal wall surface (2). The inlet port (8) preferably has a short side dimension which is not substantially greater than the thickness of the boundary layer of the liquid in the vortex chamber in use, so that the introduced liquid is substantially maintained in the boundary layer of the liquid at the internal wall surface.
