Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for precise location-based routing of calls. After a user device originates a non-short code call to a jurisdiction specific number, one or more networked computer processing components utilize the location of the originating user device to generate a location-based translated number. The location-based translated number combines the higher-precision location of the originating device with the destination number, causing the call to be routed to a destination more likely to be associated with the jurisdiction from which the call originated.

Abstract: A thermally insulated package having an outer container formed of fiberboard and comprising a base wall, a peripheral side wall and a closable top wall. The base wall, side wall and top wall defining a container interior. An insert is fitted within the container interior and formed of fiberboard. The insert comprising a floor panel and a peripheral side panel defining an insulated compartment and open top. The floor panel and side panel are each associated with the base wall and side wall of the container respectively. A thermal insulating layer to be interposed between the outer container and the insert, said insulating layer including wool fibers.

Abstract: A submersible habitat chamber providing a contained environment for repairing subsea cable is provided. The habitat chamber includes first and second shell parts assembled to at least partly define the contained environment, a first seal provided between the first and second shell parts, a cable seal provided for engagement with the cable, and at least one access port through at least one of the shell parts to allow a user to access the contained environment from outside the habitat. A method of using the habitat chamber and a kit for assembly of the chamber are also provided.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for building a score plan for a healthcare organization, its providers, its payers, and/or its patients and presenting the results of the score plan on one or more score card user interfaces. Score cards graphically display an entity's progress towards meeting quality measure objectives. The score cards provide information on percentage completion of one or more quality measure objectives by the entity and/or quality measure objectives that may be difficult for the entity to achieve.

Abstract: An occupant side-impact protection apparatus for a motor vehicle comprising an inflatable cushion stored in a folded configuration and an inflator configured to provide gas to inflate the cushion. The cushion is configured to inflate to protect the occupant of a vehicle. The side-impact protection apparatus further includes a tether to provide tension to tailor the deployment trajectory of the cushion. The tether is coupled to the cushion at a first coupling location and a second coupling location and the distance along the tether from the first coupling location to the second coupling location is less than the distance along the cushion from the first coupling location to the second coupling location.

Abstract: A device for connecting a source of electrical power to a coating or film incorporating carbon particles, an objective met by providing a coating of a nickel compound to the coating or film of carbon particles, and applying to the nickel coating a tin-copper tape coated with a silver-loaded conductive adhesive. What results is a uniform heating effect over a relatively wide area, substantially free from hot and cold spots or areas.

Abstract: The invention relates to conductive heaters, and has its objective to provide a material that exhibits a uniform heating effect over the full area of the heater, relatively free from hot and cold spots, a further objective being to maintain the heater pliable. These objectives are met by a conductive material comprising finely divided carbon particles uniformly dispersed in an elastomeric carrier there being carbon particle levels of 20% to 75% by dry weight to carrier levels. Preferably, the carrier is an elastomeric polymer.

Abstract: The invention relates to steering wheel covers, of themselves known. Even covered steering wheels can be uncomfortable to touch in periods of cold weather and in predominantly cold climates. The invention seeks to remedy this, an objective met by a heatable cover comprising an elongate flexible laminated strip (1) of a length to encircle a steering wheel of a predetermined diameter, the strip having a width to encompass substantially the full periphery of the steering wheel, the laminated strip incorporating a flexible sheet (3) of electrically conductive and heatable material, and a number of spaced substantially parallel electrically conductive strips (4) on one side of the said flexible sheet and extending across the width thereof, said strips being connectable by live and return (8, 9) leads to a source of electrical power.

Abstract: A building information system and method processes building-related data associated with a building. The building-related data, including building management system data and configuration data associated with the building, is associatively stored in a database. A building management system service manages the building subsystem and provides the building management system data stored in the database. A data interface communicates the building-related data to the database. A client interface communicates the building-related data between a client application and the data interface. Other services includes a polling service for periodically detecting point data, a metering service for periodically detecting meter data, and a rates service providing real-time price control. A client/server architecture and consistent procedural interfaces facilitate integration of additional tools and devices.

Abstract: A building information system stores and processes both building management system (BMS) data and building-related configuration information, such as building and equipment descriptions and locations, point and meter descriptions, contact information for alarms, utility rates, and manufacturer and vendor information. The BMS data is stored in multiple configurations, including analog, binary, multistate, input and output. One or more mapping structures establish database relationships between the dynamic BMS data received from or destined to points, meters, and controllers on a BMS network. By combining these two types of data in a central repository, building information system services, tools and applications can be integrated through published interfaces to provide expandable functionality. Based on the mapping structures, the building information system services, tools, and applications access BMS data and corresponding configuration data to derive additional data (e.g.
