  • Patent number: 10909176
    Abstract: A system and method for facilitating dictionary migration or dictionary mapping from a first vocabulary or a first dictionary of terms to a second vocabulary includes one or more computers configured to carry out the steps of mapping a subset of the first set of terms to respective terms in an interface terminology and flagging another subset as not mapped to respective terms in the interface terminology. The system then may provide suggested mappings for the non-mapped terms, relying on user-supplied indications in order to map those terms. The system and method also may map the first dictionary terms to a reference terminology, an administrative terminology, or a clinical terminology or, conversely, may use those external terminologies to assist in mapping to the interface terminology.

  • Publication number: 20050206160
    Abstract: In a fluid system such as irrigation system, fluid conduit attachment is facilitated through the use of a coupling. The coupling may have a body with a first end attached to a component such as an irrigation component, and a second end designed to receive an end of a conduit. The first end may be integrally formed with the component or separately attached thereto. The second end has a bore into which the end of the conduit is inserted. A gripping mechanism is seated in the bore to grip the end of the conduit. A release mechanism slides to release the conduit. The coupling may have a bend and/or branches extending to extra ends. A second coupling may be added to form a rotatable swing joint. An indicator such as a blue color may be used to indicate compatibility of the coupling with the conduit.
