  • Patent number: 11950925
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for delivering fluid therapy to a patient are disclosed herein. An exemplary method can comprise obtaining a urine output rate from a patient; causing a diuretic to be provided to the patient at a dosage rate, wherein the dosage rate is increased over a period of time such that the urine output rate increases to be above a predetermined threshold within the period of time; and causing a hydration fluid to be provided to the patient at a hydration rate. The hydration rate can be set based on the urine output rate to drive net fluid loss from the patient.

  • Patent number: 10956674
    Abstract: A contract generation system that automatically generates cost models for new business contracts is provided. The system receives a new contract comprising a set of key-value pairs, each key-value pair comprising a question and an answer that correspond to a field of information in a document for the new contract. The system computes a similarity measure between the new contract and an existing contract based on a set of variance definitions for determining differences between the set of key-value pairs of the new contract and a corresponding set of key-value pairs of the existing contract. The system generates a cost model of the new contract based on the similarity measure and a cost model of the existing contract.

  • Publication number: 20180101804
    Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: utilizing at least one processor to execute computer code that performs the steps of: identifying a new product launch having a predetermined time frame; identifying at least one existing maintenance contract expiring within the predetermined time frame; generating at least one machine learning model, wherein the at least one machine learning model identifies influence of the new product launch on an existing contract; determining, using the at least one machine learning model, impact of the new product launch on revenue received from the at least one existing maintenance contract; and providing a recommendation to a user, wherein the recommendation identifies prioritization of the at least one existing maintenance contract with respect to other actions based upon the new product launch. Other aspects are described and claimed.

  • Patent number: 8494571
    Abstract: Methods and computer-readable mediums for processing push-to-talk voice messages are provided. According to one method, a first mobile station receives a push-to-talk voice message from a second mobile station, determines that a data object is attached to the push-to-talk voice message, determines a type of the data object, and stores the data object in a PTT attachment queue of the first mobile station, based upon the determined type of the data object, which may be a picture, video data, audio data, e-mail, document, contact, or the like.

  • Patent number: 6322684
    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed having at least one cathode adapted to maintain a line of contact with at least one substrate surface during relative movement therebetween. There is at least one anode located in a spaced relationship to the cathode and an electronically insulating member located between the at least one anode and the at least one cathode adapted to provide a gap between the substrate surface and the insulating member. When placed in a plating bath, the electric field is directed toward conducting patterns on a substrate to uniformly plate the patterns while minimizing plating on the electrode. The same device may also be used for electroetching by reversing the polarity of the electrodes.
