Abstract: Presenting a list of personalized strings to a user in response to the user's interaction with a single key of a keyboard. Interaction of a user with a single key of a keyboard is detected. Responsive to detecting the user interaction at the single keyboard key, a string type associated with the user interaction is identified. One or more personalized strings that are associated with the user and that are of the identified string type are also identified. A list of strings with the one or more personalized strings of the string type associated with the user interaction is then populated. The populated list of strings is then presented, wherein each string of the list of strings comprises a user-selectable element.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for using 802.11 based wireless protocols in various energy management applications wherein a host controller uses various types of communication networks to distribute information to an on-premise processor that in turn uses 802.11 based wireless protocols to communicate with various types of end devices, such as utility meters. Various forms of communication are defined between the end device, the on-premise processor, and the energy management host for accomplishing power load control, including determining when to activate or deactivate a load, requesting permission to activate a load, reading usage data, activating or deactivating a meter, and determining rate schedules. A flexible scheme allows control to be shifted to be resident in various entities. The architecture is applicable not only for power load control, but other control type and metering devices.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for monitoring patient support exiting and initiating a response to prevent or mitigate harm. One ore more cameras provide a video data stream of a patient resting on a bed, chair, wheelchair, gurney, recliner or other support. A computer system analyses the video data stream and determines the location and/or movements of the patient relative to a fixed reference (e.g., the support). A profile containing personalized support exiting data for the patient is used to accurately predict support exiting. Intervention to prevent or mitigate harm in the event support exiting is detected may include an alarm, audio/visual communication and/or direct physical intervention. Patient profiles can be updated in response to observed behavior to better predict support exiting.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are used in monitoring patients, staff, assets and visitors at a facility, initiating a response to prevent or mitigate harm, and assess and ensure overall quality and performance, and refine individual patient, staff and visitor profiles. A plurality of sensors throughout the facility provide multiple data streams relating to the locations of patients relative to at least one of caregivers, assets, other patients, visitors or one or more fixed locations. A computer system analyses the data stream and determines the location and/or movements of the patients relative to the caregivers, assets, other patients, visitors and/or fixed locations. A profile containing individual data for the patient is used to accurately detect events, including actionable events, ensure completion of prescribed care, assess patient wellness, and, in some cases, provide tailored patient specific responses to detected events.

Abstract: An input bearing adjuster system includes a differential carrier assembly having a set of threads on an interior surface and an input bearing adjuster having a complementary set of threads on an exterior surface. The system also includes an input bearing system of a differential which includes an outer race in contact with the input bearing adjuster and an inner race in contact with an input shaft and an input bearing. Additionally, a locking mechanism is used to selectively secure the input bearing adjuster to the differential carrier. The threads of the bearing adjuster are engaged with the threads of the differential carrier to adjust both the preload and/or the endplay of the input bearing.
