Abstract: Compositions and methods for the simulataneous capture and release using micropattern surfaces for tissue and cell microdissection. In one example, a patterned thermoplastic film has a first surface and a plurality of projections attached to and extending outwardly from the first surface. The projections form a pattern on the thermoplastic film.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices, methods and compositions for making and using microfluidic devices comprising making a microfluid device comprising one or more channels; and coating at least a portion of an interior surface of at least one channel, wherein one or more gradients are formed by simultaneously introducing into the device a first cellular culture media composition having a certain concentration of a gas, an active agent or both and a second composition having a concentration of a gas, an active agent or both that is/are different from that of the first composition. Such devices are used to investigate cellular responses to physiological states and active agents.

Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described herein for creating a relational data structure by extracting user data items from a collection of one or more applications sources. These data items evince interests exhibited by the users, and may include messages, documents, tasks, meetings, etc. The technique also collects knowledge data items from one or more knowledge sources. In one implementation, these data items may include terms used to describe skills possessed by the users. The technique constructs the data structure by providing objects associated with respective data items, and links between respective pairs of objects. In its real-time phase of operation, the technique allows a user to interrogate the relational data structure, e.g., to identify skills possessed by a particular user, to find users associated with a specified skill, etc.

Abstract: Certain examples provide methods, systems and apparatus of content-driven clinical information management. An example method includes facilitating authoring of content and combination of the content into a content-based application, wherein content represents a parameterization of instructions to instruct the content-based application how to operate, the content formulated according to one or more detailed clinical models. The example method includes packaging and deploying the content-based application using a processor to one or more targets for installation. The example method includes facilitating installation of the packaged content-based application at the one or more targets. The example method includes managing the content-based application remotely from the one or more targets. In the example method, content is to be created, stored, deployed, and retrieved independently of the creation and deployment of the content-based application consuming data based on the content.

Abstract: This application relates generally to third party carrier management by a shipper of items. These items may be ordered and shipped by the shipper to a distribution center with final delivery performed by the third party carrier. In an embodiment, a system includes at least one processor operatively coupled with a datastore, the at least one processor configured to: send a bid inquiry to a first carrier device and a second carrier device, wherein the bid inquiry characterizes an item for delivery; receive first bid information responsive to the bid inquiry from the first carrier device; receive second bid information responsive to the bid inquiry from the second carrier device; determine a common delivery condition set of the first bid information and the second bid information; and select the first carrier device over the second carrier device based on the common delivery condition set of the first bid information and the second bid information.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a method comprising storing a first set of explicitly enumerated data values in a first window data structure associated with a first time span. The method further comprises storing one or more sets of summary statistics in a second set of window data structures. Each window data structure of the second set of window data structures is associated with a time span older than the first time span. The one or more sets of summary statistics are based on a second set of data values. The method further comprises storing a third set of explicitly enumerated data values in a third set of window data structures, wherein each data value of the third set of explicitly enumerated data values is annotated.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are method and compositions for making and using liposomes having small diameters and low polydispersity.

Abstract: A system and method for visualizing and updating a data analytics model using Graphical User Interface (GUI) is disclosed. The system is configured to receive an input file, from a user, storing a data analytics model. Based upon the input file, the system identifies the standard template, from a set of template, corresponding to a data analytics module of the input file. Further, the system is configured to display a graphical representation corresponding to the data analytics model based upon the standard template of the data analytics model, wherein the graphical representation comprises a set of elements corresponding to the data analytics model. Further, the system enables editing one or more elements from the set of elements of the graphical representation. Upon modification of the elements of graphical representation, the system enables updating the input file, thereby update the data analytics model using the GUI.

Abstract: An event is received at a computing device from a sensor, the computing device is one of a number of computing devices in a logical topology of a distributed network. Next, it is determined a gap, gapless, or gapless-state delivery protocol. The event is delivered from the computing device to one of the computing devices using the determined delivery protocol, thereby causing processing of the event and producing an output in the distributed network.

Abstract: Described herein are systems, devices, techniques and products for minimizing disruption to network systems due to false detection of a Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) as a Powered Device (PD). The disclosed systems, devices, techniques and products provide a way for a PSE to identify itself and avoid being detected as a legacy PD. The disclosed systems, devices, techniques and products further provide a way for a PSE to identify devices that do not require power from the PSE, such as another PSE or a device that is not a PD, and disable automatic PD detection, disable PoE, or otherwise prevent injection of power/current to the other device.
