Abstract: Multi-tiered graphical user interface (GUI) systems and methods are described for interoperating between multiple mobile application modes during a real-time caregiving event. An expert GUI and a novice GUI are rendered having a an expert mode and an novice mode, respectively, that share a control state for passing operation between the expert mode and the novice mode. A triggering of a caregiving event is detected that causes the passing of the control state from the expert mode to the novice mode, and the rendering of a novice GUI in an interoperated sequence following rendering of the expert GUI. Caregiving data of a novice user is generated during the novice mode, wherein the novice GUI, as rendered during the novice mode, comprises a different interface compared with the expert GUI, and the novice GUI configured for manipulation by the novice user.

Abstract: Methods of manufacturing a honeycomb structure comprise the step of providing a honeycomb body having a multiplicity of cells extending therethrough between opposing end faces. The cells are defined by intersecting porous walls. The methods further include the steps of applying an after-applied skin layer on the honeycomb body and chamfering an edge of the after-applied skin. The chamfering step is performed on a wet after-applied skin layer.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for manufacturing a honeycomb filter having an after-applied skin with chamfered edges formed on the face-ends of the honeycomb filter structure. Apparatus for the manufacture of these honeycomb structures having after-applied skin with chamfered edges are also provided.
