  • Patent number: 11967406
    Abstract: Methods are provided for the surveillance and monitoring of a patient's medical care when the patient is treated at two or more medical organizations having different medical record systems. Patient information is received from a first medical organization and populated into an active risk assessment array that monitors the patient's risk for developing a particular disease or condition. Patient information is then received from a second medical organization and populated into the array. It is determined that actionable criteria have been met, and in response, a notification or alert is sent to the medical organizations indicating that the patient is at risk.

  • Publication number: 20230343221
    Abstract: Technologies for platooned include a leader vehicle and one or more follower vehicles each including a computing device. The leader vehicle computing device controls velocity of the leader vehicle within a predetermined route based on a grade profile of the predetermined route. The leader vehicle may perform nonlinear model predictive control using a cost function based on predicted velocity error and predicted fuel consumption. The follower vehicle computing device controls velocity of the follower vehicle within the predetermined route based on headway distance to the leader vehicle and the grade profile. The follower vehicle may perform nonlinear model predictive control using a cost function based on predicted headway error, predicted headway rate of change, and predicted fuel consumption. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20230102564
    Abstract: A device includes a vector register file, a memory, and a processor. The vector register file includes a plurality of vector registers. The memory is configured to store a permutation instruction. The processor is configured to access a periodicity parameter of the permutation instruction. The periodicity parameter indicates a count of a plurality of data sources that contain source data for the permutation instruction. The processor is also configured to execute the permutation instruction to, for each particular element of multiple elements of a first permutation result register of the plurality of vector registers, select a data source of the plurality of data sources based at least in part on the count of the plurality of data sources and populate the particular element based on a value in a corresponding element of the selected data source.

  • Publication number: 20220414507
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for efficient global qubit placement within a quantum computing environment for a quantum program. Some embodiments utilize a graph-based approach to represent positions in a quantum computing environment, and optimize the graph layout using a graph processing algorithm to rearrange layers of a graph and reduce edge crossings. A layered graph associated with minimum cost is selected and utilized as an efficient layered graph for purposes of global qubit placement at various time steps of execution. Embodiments provide satisfactory approximations that avoid the NP-hard nature of this task to significantly reduce compilation time to a solution for global qubit placement as opposed to optimal global qubit placement while additionally identifying solutions that significantly reduce overall execution time and computing resource usage.

  • Patent number: 11398310
    Abstract: Methods are provided for validating theoretical improvements in the decision-support processes facilitating surveillance and monitoring of a patient's risk for developing a particular disease or condition and detecting the disease or condition. Patient information is received from a source and populated into an active risk assessment that monitors the patient's risk for developing Sepsis. At least a first and second set of actionable criteria for determining a patient's risk for developing sepsis are received. For each set of actionable criteria, it is determined that actionable criteria have been met. In some embodiments, software agents, operating in a multi-agent computing platform, perform each determination of whether actionable criteria are met.

  • Patent number: 11388261
    Abstract: Aspects described herein provide improved system architectures for a cross-domain proxy so that server/controller software may be placed in a cloud-based environment, with only limited equipment required on-premises at a user location for use by application client software. Aspects described herein provide techniques for communicating information between disparate domains, while each party to the transaction believes it is on the same domain as the other party to the transaction. Aspects described herein generally relate to a method to transparently transport the Citrix Brokering Protocol (CBP, or other protocols) between On-Premises VDAs (e.g., virtualized Windows computers) to an In-Cloud Broker running on the Desktop Delivery Controllers (DDCs) when each resides in different domains. Using aspects described herein, resources that otherwise need to be co-located on the same administrative domain can be moved to different domains, e.g., using a cloud-based system architecture.
