Abstract: A method and apparatus for identifying porosity in a structure made by an additive manufacturing process in which a laser is scanned across layers of material to form the structure. Pyrometry data comprising images of the layers acquired during additive manufacturing of the structure is received. The pyrometry data is used to generate temperature data comprising estimated temperatures of points in the layers in the images of the layers. The temperature data is used to identify shapes fit to high temperature areas in the images of the layers. Conditions of the shapes fit to the high temperature areas in the images of the layers are identified. Outlier shapes are identified in the shapes fit to the high temperature areas in the images of the layers using the conditions of the shapes.

Abstract: Data integration and distribution systems. A system includes a graphical user interface (GUI). Weather and market data are collected. A weather symbology including symbol elements linked to segments of the collected weather data and rules for generating weather symbology instructions are stored. The GUI is generated for display on a user device. A weather symbology instruction is determined based on at least one requested symbol element indicated in a weather data request and the rules. A weather forecast dataset is created from among the collected weather data based on the weather symbology instruction. A presentation package comprising the weather forecast dataset and the collected market data is generated such that the weather forecast dataset is integrated with the collected market data. The presentation package is presented on the GUI and updated concurrent with changes at least one of the weather data, the market data and user input.

Abstract: A secure teleconference with a patient treatment room may be initiated by receiving, at a central facility, a request for a conference from a clinician application, and then identifying a virtual meeting room and sending an identifier for a conference to the treatment room. The conference is then be established by receiving a call at the central facility from the treatment room, where the call identifies the conference. The central facility then joins the treatment room and the clinician application to the virtual meeting room. Teleconferences may thus be established without reference to sensitive patient information. For security, no incoming conferencing calls may be made to the treatment room directly, and virtual meeting rooms may be eliminated after single use. A call may further be initiated by receiving a request from the treatment room, e.g., which is processed by the central facility to alert one or more clinicians.

Abstract: The system and method for forming an ignition sequencer comprising two inseparable portions (a body and an armature) where an armature is articulable with respect to a body to allow for the existence of no less than two distinct stages of the ignition sequence through the articulating motion of the additively-manufactured armature. The ignition sequencer assembly architecture allows for installation of an internal energetic compound while all components are assembled and interconnected. The ignition sequencer assembly architecture allows for installation into a next higher-level assembly using a single, uniaxial, force.

Abstract: Testing of a software system is initiated in an operating environment. The software system includes a plurality of software programs executing across multiple computing nodes. Thereafter, the operating environment and/or resources available to one or more of the software programs are selectively altered according to a test plan. In addition, functional and/or performance characteristics of one or more parts of the operating environment and/or the software programs under test are also selectively altered according to the test plan. In addition, concurrent with the altering of the operating environment and/or the resources and the altering of functional and/or performance characteristics, behavior and/or performance of the software system are monitored to identify faults.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a system can determine geocoded data from a database of geographic coordinates and metadata. The system correlates metadata, such as invoice data, to geolocation data, such as GPS or cellular data to determine geocoded data. The system further identifies one or more geographic coordinates for one or more location names, which may not have a corresponding metadata entry, by generating clusters of geographic coordinates. The clusters are then matched to one or location names using a matching algorithm. Accordingly, improved geocoded data may be determined.

Abstract: A peer-to-peer media sharing network is facilitated by a central controller which maintains a map of media stream devices acting as sources, destinations, and relays for media streams. The controller maintains a remote connection with each media stream device, monitoring operational status and modifying the map as required in response to conditions. Each media stream device manages its own remote peer connections with other media stream devices by, e.g., initiating a peer connection once both the destination node and the desired stream are available. For simplicity and rapid response to changing status conditions, the map may include node groups comprising various types of nodes, such as aggregation groups, distribution groups, and link groups. Media stream devices may autonomously alter connections within groups as necessary to maintain connections.

Abstract: Content is transferred from a first non-volatile storage medium to a second non-volatile storage medium without reproduction. This is accomplished by reading first data stored in the first non-volatile storage medium from the first non-volatile storage medium to volatile memory, erasing the first data from the first non-volatile storage medium, and after erasing the first data from the first non-volatile storage medium, storing corresponding data in a second non-volatile storage medium. And after storing the corresponding data in the second non-volatile storage medium, the first data is erased from the volatile memory. The first data is not concurrently stored in the first non-volatile storage medium and the second non-volatile storage medium.

Abstract: In a method for superimposed conveyance of data and electrical power, a first switch can cycle to convey the electric power and data from a first device. Binary digits of the data from the first device can be represented by transitions, of a voltage at a node of a second device, between a first voltage and a second voltage. A second switch can cycle to convey data from the second device. Binary digits of the data from the second device can be represented by transitions, of a current through a component of the first device, between being less than a threshold and being greater than the threshold. A voltage regulator of the second device can provide, in response to the voltage at the node being within a range of voltages that includes the first voltage and the second voltage, the electrical power to one or more components.
