Abstract: A surgical instrument, has an end effector that includes an ultrasonic blade, and a clamp arm that moves relative to the ultrasonic blade from an opened position toward an intermediate position and a closed position. The clamp arm is offset from the ultrasonic blade to define a predetermined gap in the intermediate position between the opened position and the closed position. A clamp arm actuator connects to the clamp arm and moves from an opened configuration to a closed configuration to direct the clamp arm from the opened position toward the intermediate position and the closed position. A spacer connects with the clamp arm to inhibit movement of the clamp arm from the intermediate position toward the closed position for maintaining the predetermined gap between the clamp arm and the ultrasonic blade.

Abstract: A semi-autonomous, self-balancing, inline wheeled vehicle utilizes one or more of the wheels to establish and maintain the balance of the vehicle, and one or more of the remaining wheels to steer. The vehicle is particularly suited for narrow pathways and may utilize sensing and vision technologies and/or mechanical sensors to discern and safely negotiate a variety of path types. A feature is the ability to discern and negotiate narrow paths and avoid obstacles with little or no input from the user. Paths may be real-world, real-time paths or may take the form of virtual programed paths. Pathways may include roads, hiking trails, delineated bike lanes, as well as tram-paths built upon modified railroad tracks and railbeds. Versions of the vehicle may be network-controlled from external sources, such that convoys of these vehicles may be operated as a single entity. Some aspects of the design, particularly when combined with modified railways or railbeds, may take the form of a bi-directional monorail system.

Abstract: In one aspect, just-in-time authentication is provided to assist an administrator or staff of an IT service end user to invoke a function call to a service. The just-time-authentication can provide on-the-fly authentication to the service. In another aspect, granular permissions in executing a task or tasks for a service is enabled for a given administrator or staff of an IT service end user. In some embodiments, the granular permission involves assigning permissions to users either directly or indirectly via a mediating abstraction (such as groups, roles, etc.). Still in another aspect, stateful execution of a command/function call to a service is provided. In the stateful execution, the command/function call to the service is associated with a key, which can comprise a session id, a function name, a count of function executions for current session, and hash of input parameters for the command/function call, and/or any other information.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus provide automated circuit disconnection monitoring such as for a respiratory apparatus or system. Disconnection of a patient circuit, including a patient interface and air delivery circuit, may be detected and a message or alarm activated. In some versions, detecting occurrences of circuit disconnection event(s), such as by a processor, may be based on an instantaneous disconnection parameter as a function of a disconnection setting. The disconnection setting may be determined based on patient circuit type. The instantaneous disconnection parameter may be determined from detected pressure and flow rate, and may be, for example, a conductance value or an impedance value. Disconnection events may be qualified by one or more detected respiratory indicators.

Abstract: System and method are disclosed for enabling data synchronization with different cloud service providers. Semantics of provide data from the cloud service providers may be determined and captured in a data object—i.e. a provider data object. The provider data object may then be instantiated for individual cloud service providers for synchronizing data with a given cloud service provider. Provider data can be received from the given cloud service provider can be processed using the instance of the provider data object. Specific provider information can then be extracted from the received provider data according the semantics defined in the instance of the provider data object. The extracted provider information can then compared with provider information already stored in a database. When one or more differences are detected between the two, the received provider information can be saved to the database.

Abstract: A system and method for facilitating a migration engine to migrate data items in a data directory from a source system to a destination system over multiple migration passes are disclosed. A state file can be used to track migration states of data items during the life cycle of the migration. The state file can be generated and updated by a plugin to the migration engine. During a migration pass, the state file can be loaded into the memory to influence the migration by the migration engine. Prior to the migration pass, migration profile specifying one or more migration actions can be invoked by a migration routine. The invocation of the migration profile can cause the state file to be modified to perform the migration actions accordingly.
