Abstract: A system may receive a first resource allocation request (associated with a first company) from a first entity. The system may determine that the first request is not associated with a risk relationship and arrange for it to be processed via a claim servicing entity. Information about the first request may then be routed to a request handler device for processing and a communication with a first graphical indication may be generated. The system may also receive a second resource allocation request (associated with the first company) from a second entity and determine that it is to be processed via a risk. The system may then route information about the second request to a request handler device for processing and generate a communication with a second graphical indication. Note that the request handler device may be the same device that received the information about the first request.

Abstract: A cutting assembly in which an inner tube is rotatably disposed within an outer tube and defines as aspiration path. The inner tube may include segments, and the segments may define a flexible region associated with a bend of the outer tube. The outer tube may define irrigation channels, and further define irrigation apertures positioned proximal to a cutting window or distal to the flexible region. The irrigation channels fluidly separate the aspiration lumen from an irrigation path so as to prevent ingress of irrigation fluid into the aspiration lumen through slots defined by the segments. An inner jacket may be coaxially disposed within the inner tube and configured to provide a seal between the aspiration path and the irrigation path. A distal end of the inner jacket may be disposed in a counterbore, and the proximal end of the inner jacket may be proximal to the inner tube.

Abstract: A case for a portable electronic device that includes a rigid outer layer and a more flexible inner layer is disclosed herein. The case is a single piece case. The outer layer has openings that extend through the thickness of the outer layer. The openings are connected by a groove in the outer layer. The openings and the groove may be filled by a more flexible material. The inner layer has openings. The outer layer is translucent so that the inner layer may be visible through the outer layer.

Abstract: An alert system and method are provided to identify and characterize real-time information transmission anomalies in high-frequency global and local traceroute data. The system includes active network sensors and/or collector devices, which collect traceroute data associated with transmissions to different points in a computer network and provide the traceroute data to a master server. The traceroute data is obtained by the active network sensors by sending probing data packets to numerous computing target devices located locally with respect to the target device and/or globally. The master server determines one or more anomalies from the received traceroute data and characterizes the anomaly in terms of type, severity, location, affected Domain Name System (DNS) server and/or Internet Service Provider (ISP).
