Abstract: Implementations generally relate to management of metadata groups and associated workflows. In some implementations, a method includes receiving a workflow request, wherein the workflow request includes information associated with a metadata group. The method further includes providing a workflow list of available workflows based on the metadata group. The method further includes receiving a selection of a workflow from the workflow list. The method further includes providing the workflow and a form associated with the workflow.

Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and transaction management computing devices that assist with processing a transaction involving a merchant and a user using a system include receiving over at least one communication channel an indication of a user transaction. Location information indicating a location of the user transaction or merchant information indicating a merchant involved in the user transaction is determined. A first attribute package and a first payment format is identified and communicated to the client device. The user transaction is initiated upon receiving a confirmation indicating selection of the identified first payment format and the identified first attribute package. The user transaction is held open for a predetermined period of time to allow the user to modify the selected first payment format or the selected first attribute package for the user transaction to a different attribute package or a different payment format.

Abstract: Methods and devices to display an image on an LCD display that includes a liquid crystal cell and a light emitting diode backlight. Based on an incoming video stream, data is analyzed to control the amount of light that is emitted by the backlight to one or more zones on the display.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an indication that a user has initiated a transaction and determining whether location information identifying a location of the transaction was received. A first attribute package of a plurality of attribute packages of the user may be identified based on customized rules and, if received, based on the location information. An identification of the first attribute package may be sent to the user's client system as a recommended payment attribute package for processing the transaction. In response to the identification of the first attribute package, the transaction may be opened, and a payment attribute package for the transaction may be set to the first attribute package. The transaction may be held open for a predetermined period of time to allow the user to modify the payment attribute package for the transaction to a different attribute package.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, over at least one communication channel, an indication of a user transaction. A computer processor may be automatically activated to determine location information or merchant information. The processor further selects and retrieves a first attribute package selection code module and a first payment format selection code module for execution. The computer processor may then execute the first attribute package selection code module to identify a first attribute package of a plurality of attribute packages of the user and execute the first payment format selection code module to identify a first payment format of a plurality of payment format. Furthermore, the computer processor communicates an instruction to a client system an instruction to identify the selected first attribute package and payment format as a recommendation to the user.

A first attribute package of a plurality of attribute packages of the user may be identified based on customized rules and, if received, based on the location information. An identification of the first attribute package may be sent to the user's client system as a recommended payment attribute package for processing the transaction. In response to the identification of the first attribute package, the transaction may be opened, and a payment attribute package for the transaction may be set to the first attribute package. The transaction may be held open for a predetermined period of time to allow the user to modify the payment attribute package for the transaction to a different attribute package.

Abstract: A utility vehicle is provided that includes first and second pairs of wheels, a controller, and a potentiometer. The first pair of wheels is propelled by an internal combustion engine. The second pair of wheels is propelled by a battery-operated motor. The motor drives a transaxle that drives the second pair of wheels. The controller controls operation of the motor. The potentiometer is configured to be manually activated to propel the utility vehicle, and is coupled to the controller to send a signal to the controller to rotate the motor. The potentiometer is also configured to activate fuel flow into the internal combustion engine.

Abstract: Swaging a suspension base plate to an actuator arm for a hard disk drive. A portion of material adjacent to a hole in the actuator arm is removed to create an opening to receive material. A flange of the suspension base plate is inserted into the hole in the actuator arm. The suspension base plate is swaged to the actuator arm, wherein the swaging causes material from the suspension base plate to flow into the opening.

Abstract: A network documentation system computer program (302) for documenting a network (100) receives a configuration of elements (205) within the network (100). Methodology (320) of the program represents the elements (205) by nodes (336) in a model of the network (100). Each of the nodes (336) is defined by one of a plurality of nodes types (402), and each of the node types (402) governs structure rules (504) for child nodes (808) and connectivity rules (508) for defining links (338) between nodes (336). The nodes (336) are presented in a network graph (312) in accordance with the structure rules (504) to document the network (100), with the child nodes (808) associated with their respective parent nodes (806). The links (338) are depicted between the nodes (336) in the network graph (312) in accordance with the connectivity rules (508), and represent connections between pairs of elements (205) in the network (100).

Abstract: A test checks for appropriate positioning of priority fields for image collection and evaluation. The tests characterize lateral repeatability of stage movement in an X-Y plane, the longitudinal repeatability of the stage along a Z axis, cross coupling of motion in the Z direction from the X-Y stage movement, repeatability of the microscope objective turret positioning, mechanical centration of optical paths and the parfocality of optical paths. The process includes moving to a rough location, performing focus pans to determine the best focus and searching for a known object to register coordinate locations, processing those locations to determine the repeatability and accuracy of the motion system. Further, a means of evaluating these parameters is disclosed by which an automated cytology instrument will validate or invalidate data taken since the last position integrity check.
