Abstract: A medical device system may include an elongate shaft having a lumen extending from a proximal end to a distal end, a proximal release wire, and a distal release wire. The proximal release wire may extend distally from a proximal end configured to remain outside the body to a distal end and may be slidably disposed within the lumen of the elongate shaft. The proximal release wire may include a distal stopper coupled to the distal end thereof. The distal release wire may extend distally from a proximal end to a distal end and may be slidably disposed within the lumen of the elongate shaft. The proximal end of the distal release wire may be slidably coupled to the distal end of the proximal release wire. The distal release wire may be configured to releasably attach a medical device to the distal end of the elongate shaft.

Abstract: A heat exchanger is provided. The heat exchanger includes a first wall manifold. The heat exchanger further includes a second wall manifold spaced apart from the first wall manifold. The heat exchanger further includes a plurality of vanes that extend generally circumferentially between the first wall manifold and the second wall manifold. The heat exchanger further includes a plurality of fluid circuits defined within the heat exchanger. Each fluid circuit in the plurality of fluid circuits includes an inlet channel portion and an outlet channel portion defined within the first wall manifold. A return channel portion defined within the second wall manifold. At least one passage portion of a plurality of passage portions defined within each vane of the plurality of vanes. The at least one passage portion extends between the return channel portion and one of the inlet channel portion and the outlet channel portion.

Abstract: Air distribution nozzles, aircraft that include air distribution nozzles, and methods of utilizing air distribution nozzles are disclosed herein. The air distribution nozzles include an elongate inlet chamber, an elongate outlet chamber, and an elongate slot that extends between, and fluidly interconnects, the elongate inlet chamber and the elongate outlet chamber. The air distribution nozzles also include a suction inlet chamber that extends from a suction inlet port to the elongate inlet chamber. The suction inlet port opens into the suction inlet chamber. The air distribution nozzles further include a motive fluid inlet port that extends into the elongate inlet chamber. The air distribution nozzles also include a sensor port that extends into the suction inlet chamber. The air distribution nozzles further include an elongate outlet port that extends from the elongate outlet chamber.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention relate to user interface control of a head-worn computer.

Abstract: A database management engine provides a user interface that allows users to access and modify employee information in a database. The database includes entries for employees, and each database entry includes identifying information about the associated employee. A user can request to modify data within database entries, for instance in order to update information associated with an employee. Responsive to the request, the database management engine identifies liabilities associated with the database modification stemming from associated tax laws. Based on the identified tax liabilities, the engine computes the aggregate tax liability owed by the employer and/or employee. Before modifying a database entry, the engine modifies the user interface to include interface elements detailing the computed aggregate tax liability. The user explicitly can be required to confirm the database modification in view of the aggregate tax liability.

Abstract: In one general embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes performing a firmware update on a hardware component of a computer system. A hash value associated with the update of the firmware is collected, and added to Platform Control Registers (PCRs) of multiple Trusted Platform Module (TPMs) of the computer system. The hash value is logged in a log file. At a predetermined time, PCR values are received from the TPMs. The PCR values are compared to determine whether all PCR values match. In response to one of the PCR values not matching, a warning is issued.

Abstract: A casting core used in the manufacture of a cast engine component for a turbine engine, the cast engine component having a first area, a second area, a fluid passage wall separating the first area and the second area, and a connecting fluid passage extending through the fluid passage wall and interconnecting the first area and the second area. The connecting fluid passage having a turn with a radius (R). The casting core having a first core and a second core. The first core and the second core being defined by a set of geometric characteristics having a first minimum equivalent diameter (D1eqmin) of the first core and a second minimum equivalent diameter (D2eqmin) of the second core. A first flexible geometry factor (FGF1) being equal to: ( D ? 1 eq ? min D ? 2 eq ? min ) ? ( R D ? 2 eq ? min ) .

Abstract: A system for representing insurance products as directed graphs and transforms the directed graphs into graph object artifacts for execution. The system includes a compiler, an execution engine and a web-based runtime environment. The compiler transforms source code defining an insurance product as a directed graph into a plurality of nodes, where each node represents one of a computation and an input, and outputs a graph object artifact. The execution engine has an execution model derived from the graph object artifact that is loaded into memory and an application program interface that provides an interface to the web-based runtime environment. The web-based runtime environment provides a layer of abstraction between the execution engine and external services or systems.

Abstract: A seat (1000) may include mounting components (1054a. 1054b) that may mate with corresponding components on other assemblies. The seat may include one or more features that may rotate or move to provide for coupling to the one or more assemblies. Assemblies include, but are not limited to, a stroller, a bicycle adapter, a wagon, a booster seat, a camping chair, a high chair, a stadium seat/picnic table, a hiking pack, an infant carrier, a car seat, a booster car seat, or an airline seat.
