Abstract: Systems and methods include receiving a request, in a cloud system from a first device, to access a second device; determining if the first device is permitted to access the second device; if the first device is not permitted to access the second device, notifying the first device the second device does not exist; and, if the first device is permitted to access the second device, stitching together connections between the cloud system, the first device, and the second device to provide access to the second device for the first device, wherein the connections are implemented through the cloud-based system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to anti-IL-23p19 binding compounds, in particular new humanized anti-IL-23p19 antibodies, pharmaceutical compositions and therapeutic and diagnostic methods and compositions for using the same.

Abstract: A golf club head includes a head body having a crown, sole and skirt therebetween, the head body defining an opening in a front portion and having a frame support around the periphery of the opening. A face plate is mounted within the opening and has a transition radius along one or more edges to at least partially wrap around one or more of the crown, sole and skirt. The head includes thin wall zones in the crown and skirt, a hosel flush with the crown and a weight mounted in the sole proximate to the face plate, such that the golf club head has a center of gravity located relatively low and forward in proximity to the face plate.

Abstract: An orthopedic device delivers dynamic forces to a desired remote bone region. Dynamically arranged mechanical forces are known to stimulate bone cells (the process of mechanotransduction). The device includes an implantable element configured to couple with a generally accessible and healthy bone area, from which location it's configured to transmit forces to a remote bone area in need of repair, regrowth, or regeneration. Further, the device positions and orients the implantable element where it can be readily acted on by the device's force generator. The force generator is configured to impart dynamic forces that are transmitted through the implantable element and into a desired bone mass including a remote bone area in need of repair. This device promotes fracture healing, treats osteoporotic or other poor quality bone, and promotes vertebral fusion in conjunction with a spinal fusion procedure.

Abstract: An operating table has first bed platforms, each which can rotate. In an operating configuration, the patient lies on one of the bed platforms in a prone or supine position with the bed platform centered over the base. When the patient needs to be turned, the other table extends outwardly, and both tables are rotated to position the patient for turning. Once the patient is turned, the table on which the patient lies is returned to its operating position over the base and the other table is returned to its storage position.

Abstract: An IO method and system for bit-deskewing are described. Embodiment includes a computer system with multiple components that transfer data among them. In one embodiment, a system component receives a forward strobe signal and multiple data bit signals from a transmitting component. The receiving component includes a forward strobe clock recovery circuit configurable to align a forward strobe sampling clock so as to improve sampling accuracy. The receiving component further includes at least one data bit clock recovery circuit configurable to align a data bit sampling clock so as to improve sampling accuracy, and to receive a signal from the forward strobe clock recovery circuit that causes the data bit sampling clock to track the forward strobe sampling clock during system operation.

Abstract: A request is received from a client for a web page hosted by a web server. Responsive to this request, a persistent client state object having an identifier therein is returned to the client. When a request is received from a client for elements of the web page hosted by the web server, the client is first required to return the persistent client state object having the identifier therein before the requested web page element is sent to the client.

Abstract: A processor such as a digital signal processor (DSP) is used to dynamically generate patterns and/or sequences of patterns for a spatial light modulator (SLM), such as a micromirror device, for the purpose of processing light. The combination of the processor and modulator has afforded optical signal processing in the digital domain and programmability that cannot be achieved with conventional analog optical computing.

Abstract: A turbine component such as a turbine blade has a cooling chamber that is tapered. The taper induces and maintains a helical swirl that improves the cooling efficiency of the cooling process and enables the turbine component to operate at higher temperatures.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for identifying and cataloging software assets contained on a networked computer. In accordance with one embodiment, there is provided a method comprising providing a data warehouse including a master catalog file. The master catalog file comprises a software items table of attributes, a software packages table of attributes, and a mapping rules table for mapping certain software item entries to certain software package entries.

Abstract: A method for optical digital signal processing, comprises configuring a plurality of binary mirrors to allow a subset of the binary mirrors to represent a range of values. The plurality of binary mirrors comprise a digital micromirror device. Light from a light source is received at the digital micromirror device. The intensity of the light is altered to represent one of the values based, at least in part, on the configuration of the subset of the binary mirrors. The altered light is transmitted from the digital micromirror device to a detector array.
