Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and systems for managing traffic violation or enforcement data using a distributed ledger. The distributed ledger provides a transparent chain of custody/evidence related to all digital interactions with traffic violation or enforcement data. The distributed ledger can be audited for data accuracy and integrity by nodes making up the system each time one of the nodes interacts with the traffic violation or enforcement data. For example, a digital evidence package related to a traffic violation event can be generated by a node within the system and a package digest can be logged in the distributed ledger beginning with the creation of the digital evidence package and each time that the digital evidence package is processed, modified, or reviewed by nodes within the system.

Abstract: Polymers having pendant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) groups covalently bound to the polymer backbone via thioester bonds are provided. The PAH groups are covalently bound to the backbone of the polymer by a molecular linker that includes a thioester bond. Also provided are dispersions of polymer-coated carbon nanotubes and carbon nanotube films formed from the dispersions.

Abstract: A simplified, inexpensive, wearable system, and methods using the system, to determine an individual's postural stability and center of pressure, the determination occurring with enhanced accuracy compared to current systems, and occurring in real-time.

Abstract: A method for testing, treating, and preventing delayed food allergies includes: receiving detailed symptom, medical, and dietary histories from a patient; formulating a combination of one or more food extracts at selected concentrations for sublingual administration over a trial period; determining whether the patient's symptoms have improved, worsened, or had no change, in response to the administration of the combination; and altering the combination in response to whether the patient's symptoms have improved, worsened, or not changed, so as to induce immune system food tolerance.

Abstract: Conjugated polymers composed of bi-pyridine units linked to 9,9-dialkyl fluorenyl-2,7-diyl units via imine linkages along the polymer backbone are provided. Also provided are semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes coated with the conjugated polymers and methods of sorting and separating s-SWCNTs from a sample comprising a mixture of s-SWCNTs and metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes using the conjugated polymers.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a signal having a real-time usage value associated with operation of a mobile device is received from the mobile device. Information on a service agreement for the mobile device is received. A command is sent to the mobile device when the operation of the mobile device crossed a threshold condition of the service agreement. The command is configured to cause the mobile device to implement an operational change at the mobile device in response to the command.

Abstract: A method for testing, treating, and preventing delayed food allergies includes: receiving detailed symptom, medical, and dietary histories from a patient; formulating a combination of one or more food extracts at selected concentration for sublingual adminstration over a trial period; determining whether the patient's symptoms have improved, worsened, or had no change, in response to the administration of the combination; and altering the combination in response to whether the patient's symptoms have improved, worsened, or not changed, so as to induce immune system food tolerance.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and program storage device for verifying existence of a redundant Fiber Channel path is disclosed. The present invention verifies that a redundant path exists prior to moving the WWNN and WWPN. Thus, if the path being used for Fiber Channel communication is lost, connectivity can be restored when the source of the original connection can access the physical interface where the WWNN and WWPN have been moved.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes calculating costs associated with migration from a telecommunications infrastructure in a first configuration to the telecommunications infrastructure in a second configuration. The migration is based on a first infrastructure data and a second infrastructure data. The first infrastructure data is associated with the telecommunications infrastructure in the first configuration and the second infrastructure data is associated with the telecommunications infrastructure in the second configuration. A predictive migration model is generated based on the calculated costs, the first infrastructure data, and the second infrastructure data.

Abstract: An electrical distribution apparatus, such as a load center, includes an enclosure, a plurality of circuit breakers within the enclosure, and a smoke or gas sensor structured to detect smoke or gas emitted from overheated plastic within the enclosure. A detection circuit cooperates with the smoke or gas sensor and is structured to trip one of the circuit breakers in response to the detected smoke or gas emitted from overheated plastic or to annunciate the detected smoke or gas emitted from overheated plastic.
