Abstract: Systems and methods for storing and retrieving data elements transmitted via data streams received from distributed devices connected via a network. The received data elements may be stored in block stores on the distributed devices. The stored data-elements may be allocated to data-blocks of a block-store that have assigned block-identifiers and further allocated to events of the data-blocks that have assigned token-names. Stream-schema of the received data-streams may comprise a list of token-names and an index-definition for each corresponding data-stream. Indices may be generated for the event-allocated data-elements. A query may be executed in order to retrieve data-elements of the received data-streams based on the indices.

Abstract: A system and method for storing data-files stored on distributed devices connected to a network. Data-elements of the data-files are allocated to data-blocks stored on the distributed devices. Key-identifiers are calculated for each of the data-blocks based on the allocated data-elements. The key-identifiers are stored in distributed tables stored on the distributed devices. Index-nodes are generated for the data-files based on the data-blocks. A Paxos algorithm is executed for the index-nodes based on the key-identifiers to provide a consensus of the data-files that are stored on the plurality of distributed devices.

Abstract: A system, method and computer readable medium for indexing streaming data. Data may be received from distributed devices connected via a network. Data elements may be stored and allocated to data blocks and events of the block stores. Non-text data may be converted into a text representation. The data may be split into terms, and term frequencies of each term within each of the event may be calculated. Block-level term frequency statics may be calculated based on the term frequencies. Tree index structures, such as the Y-tree index, may be generated based on the block-level term frequency data. The Y-tree index structures may use the terms as keys and pointers to the corresponding data blocks and block-level term frequency data. A search query may be performed over the tree index structures.

Abstract: A test waveguide (33) for evaluating the performance of microwave probe assemblies (1, 13) and their associated analysis equipment is mounted on a stand (56). The test waveguide (33) includes geometry that is similar to that found on the test cell assembly (2) used during commercial production activities. The test waveguide (33) includes an unsealed interior space (41) that remains accessible while the probe assemblies (1, 13) are fastened to the test waveguide. One or more reference blocks (59) are formed having known characteristics that permit calibration and evaluation of the probe assemblies and their associated analysis equipment.

Abstract: An implantable cardiac therapy device is constructed with a housing that defines first and second chambers. The first chamber holds cardiac therapy circuitry, such as sensing and/or stimulation circuitry. The second chamber holds high-frequency circuitry that transmits and receives high-frequency signals used in communication with external devices. The dual-chamber housing allows the implantable cardiac therapy device to handle high-frequency signals in an isolated environment, thereby enabling longer range telemetry, without interfering with the cardiac therapy circuitry. The implantable cardiac therapy device can be linked to a cardiac network of knowledge workers that evaluate the data generated by the device and provide instructions to remotely program the device.

Abstract: A method and assembly for selectively actuating features of implanted medical devices with a magneto-static field. The method includes selectively exposing the implanted device to a static magnetic field source, selectively shielding the magnetic field source, and distancing the shielded magnetic field source from the medical device. One version of the assembly includes a permanent magnet and a displaceable shield assembly that shields the magnetic field generated by the magnet in one configuration and is displaceable to a second configuration wherein the magnetic field is at least partially exposed. In another version, the assembly is an electromagnet that can be selectively activated and deactivated. The electromagnet generates minimal magnet field when it is off.
