  • Publication number: 20210077321
    Abstract: A gown dispenser system has a plurality of gowns, each having a back region, the gowns folded and stacked back region facing up, such that, pulling on the back region of a gown on top of the stack removes that gown from the stack and exposes the back region of the next gown in the stack, an enclosure containing the stack of gowns, the enclosure having an opening exposing the back region of the gown at the top of the stack, enabling a user to grasp the exposed back region and pull the topmost gown from the enclosure, exposing the next gown in the stack. Gowns are drawn from the enclosure one-at-a-time, at need.

  • Patent number: 10951540
    Abstract: A provider network provides task capture and execution for tasks performed with respect to resources in the provider network. Task actions performed with respect to resources may be captured based on inputs to a provider network via a network-based service for the provider network in order to generate a recorded task. The recorded task may be stored for subsequent execution. In response to the detection of an execution event for the recorded task, the task actions may be performed as described in the recorded task. In some embodiments, task parameters and execution events may be defined for recorded tasks. Multiple recorded tasks may be linked together to be managed and executed as recorded task workflows. Recorded tasks may also be obtained that were recorded by other clients, or recorded for different provider networks.

  • Publication number: 20200344247
    Abstract: Examples include threat-aware copy data management. Responsive to a request to back up data, a threat level may be determined. Where the threat level is determined to be less than a threat level threshold, a data port between a first and second network domain may be opened. Conversely, the request may be denied where the threat level is determined to be at or greater than the threat level threshold.

  • Publication number: 20200210211
    Abstract: A method for personalizing resource strings within a user interface of a computing device. The method includes accessing a personalization editor via the computing device, and receiving a user modification to a resource string associated with one or more applications. The method also includes storing an original unmodified resource string associated with the resource string, the modified resource string, and the associated applications. The method also includes receiving a request from a first application for a first resource string associated with a specified resource identifier. The method also includes determining if the first resource string has an associated modified resource string stored in the personalized resource string database, and displaying the modified resource string based on the first resource string being determined to be associated with the modified resource string stored in the personalized resource string database.

  • Patent number: 10537803
    Abstract: Present systems and methods are directed to an interactive gaming system that includes a first game environment that includes user input devices that receive first user inputs indicative of team/individual performance of a first set of players, and a second game environment that includes user input devices that receive second user inputs indicative of team/individual performance of a second set of players. The interactive gaming system includes a controller that receives the first and second user inputs, accesses dynamic user profiles that correspond the first and the second set of players, updates the dynamic user profiles based on the first and second user inputs, selects a third set of players from the first and second set of players to qualify for a third game environment, and instructs the third game environment based on a subset of the dynamic user profiles that correspond to the third set of players.
