  • Patent number: 12141524
    Abstract: Computer-implemented methods for allowing users to specify interactive graphical designs are provided. The graphical designs can comprise multiple dimension versions—such as a tablet dimension version or a phone dimension version. Some of the methods involve an inheritance structure that defines a first dimension version of the design as a child of a second dimension version of the design. Specifications for properties of widgets in the graphical design are applied to the design in accordance with the inheritance specification. Some of the methods involve an inheritance characterization that determines how properties of a widget are affected by the inheritance structure across different dimension versions. Some of the methods involve an existence property for the widgets.

  • Patent number: 12037220
    Abstract: An integrated monitoring panel for an elevator hoistway fire detection system is provided. The system includes a power supply, fault indicators for power and smoke detection, and alarm indicators for smoke and linear heat detection. The panel is configured to receive a terminus of a linear heat detection cable and a terminus of a smoke alarm detection piping. The panel includes a smoke detection test port that may receive simulated smoke and is connected to another terminus of the smoke alarm detection piping. A linear heat detection test switch triggers a test mode and interacts with the linear heat detection cable. During the test mode, the system circulates simulated smoke, analyzes air quality and electrical conditions, and activates corresponding alarm indicators. The performance of these functionalities helps determine whether the system meets operational criteria.

  • Publication number: 20240142357
    Abstract: A system for analyzing the concentration of a first component in a sample fluid is described. The system provides a mixture of sample fluid and control fluid to a fluid concentration measuring apparatus in a controlled ratio. The system stores flow change model, representing the variation in time of the flow of the sample fluid through the system between a valving and the fluid concentration measuring apparatus in response to a variation of the controlled rate by the valving. The system estimates the concentration of the first component in the sample fluid based at least in part on the controlled ratio, and the flow change model.

  • Patent number: 11762531
    Abstract: A method involves identifying state views of a stateful widget container in a design tool having a canvas design context and an all-states view design context, each state view of the stateful widget container being associated with a unique state of the stateful widget container. A first state view of the stateful widget container is displayed in the canvas design context, no other state view of the stateful widget container being displayed concurrently in the canvas design context. The state views of the stateful widget container are displayed concurrently in the all-states view design context, an internal widget layout of each state view corresponding to that displayed in the canvas design context. A first user input is received at a first interactive widget within the stateful widget container in the all-states view design context, the first interactive widget being associated with the first state view of the stateful widget container.

  • Patent number: 11645047
    Abstract: A focused specification for an interactive graphical design is generated by receiving a first user input from a user, the first user input identifying a first design element of the interactive graphical design. A set of selectable data elements associated with the first design element is identified and a specification template that includes the set of selectable data elements is generated. A second user input is received from the user, the second user input identifying a set of selected data elements using the generated specification template. The set of selected data elements includes one or more of the selectable data elements. The focused specification is generated using the set of selected data elements, the focused specification including the set of selected data elements and excluding selectable data elements that were not selected.

  • Patent number: 11567944
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods and systems for processing of sequencing data streams. The system receives sequences from a sequencer and stores them as data records on a database. The sequences are associated with a counter indicative of a number of times the associated sequence has been sequenced. The system progressively receives a further sequence as streaming data from the sequence. While receiving the further sequence, the system matches the streaming data against the stored sequences to determine a matching score. Upon the matching score exceeding a matching threshold for one of the multiple sequences in the database, the system selects the one of the sequences in the database based on the matching score and stores the further sequence on non-volatile memory where the counter value associated with the selected sequence is below a saturation threshold. The system also terminates the receiving where the counter value is above the saturation threshold.

  • Patent number: 11087074
    Abstract: A system comprises a first workstation that locally instantiates a design tool configured to allow a designer to specify a design for a web page. A data store is locally available to the first workstation, and receives and stores the design as a saved design. A second workstation provides access to a code editor to allow a programmer to specify a modification to an encoding of the design. A server means instantiates the code editor for the second workstation, saves the modification as a saved modification, and serves the encoding of the design in accordance with the modification by combining the saved modification with the saved design. The server means seamlessly combines the saved design and the saved modification such that the saved modification and the saved design can each be independently altered and recombined to produce a modified encoding of the design.

  • Patent number: 10983678
    Abstract: Various methods and systems for documenting interactive graphical design include an exemplary graphical design environment stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium that comprises a documentation element in an interactive graphical design. The design environment also comprises a design element that displays a plurality of states in a rendering of the interactive graphical design in an external player. The documentation element: (i) is enabled to receive a selection from the user of a state in the plurality of states; and (ii) displays a representation of the design element in the state in response to receiving the selection from the user. The documentation element and design element are both instantiated by a processor operating in combination with the non-transitory computer-readable medium.
