Abstract: Devices and methods for management of a guidewire during catheter insertion. Particular embodiments include unidirectional valves to allow movement of a guidewire in one direction only.

Abstract: A method for tuning one or more sensor devices is provided, wherein each sensor device comprises one or more proof masses configured to move in response to an external stimulus of interest, and the one or more proof masses are also susceptible to move in response to one or more stimuli other than the external stimulus of interest. Each sensor device also comprises one or more pick-off mechanisms respectively associated with each of the one or more proof masses. The one or more pick-off mechanisms is proportionally responsive to a motion of the sensor device. The method for tuning includes adjusting gain of one or more of the pick-off mechanisms to reduce an output of each sensor device when the one or more proof masses move in response to the one or more stimuli other than the external stimulus of interest.

Abstract: A method is provided for controlling access to a target device. The method comprises receiving, by the target device, primary input from a user or user device, wherein the primary input matches a predetermined input stored by the target device and authorizes the user or user device to access the target device. The method further comprises storing, by the target device, one or more wireless secondary signals that are detected by the target device during a time period in which the primary input is received. Still further, the method comprises allowing access to the target device in response to receiving the primary input, and then allowing access to the target device in response to subsequently receiving at least one of the one or more wireless secondary signals matching one or more of the stored wireless secondary signals in the absence of receiving the primary input.

Abstract: Network devices, like switches, selectively store network addresses of data packets received at their interfaces within forwarding tables. A management device determines workload devices related to a workload. The management device determines the network devices through which network traffic related to the workload among the workload devices traverses, and the network devices through which network traffic related to the workload among the workload devices does not traverse. The management device causes each network device to store or not store the network addresses of the workload devices depending on whether network traffic among the workload device traverses therethrough.

Abstract: A computer program product is provided for controlling the airflow direction through a device enclosure. A first device enclosure is positioned adjacent a second device enclosure, wherein both enclosures have an airflow pathway extending from the front to the back, and a fan for moving air through the airflow pathway, wherein the fan of the first device enclosure is a reversible rotary fan. The computer program product automatically determines whether the first device enclosure is in a first orientation with its front facing in the same direction as the front of the adjacent second device enclosure or in a second orientation with the front facing in the same direction as the back of the adjacent second device enclosure. The airflow direction imparted by a reversible rotary fan is then controlled according to the determined orientation of the first device enclosure relative to the second device enclosure.
