Abstract: Systems, methods and computer-readable media are disclosed for generating integrated data records by correlating source data records stored at different registry source data repositories. A set of source data records is retrieved based on execution of one or more search queries against a set of registry source data repositories. A data record matching rule is selected for execution on the set of source data records. The matching rule specifies one or more input properties, each of which specifies at least one data field designator, and optionally, a matching algorithm and an input property match threshold value. The matching rule is executed on pairwise combinations of source data records to obtain a set of matched source data records. An integrated data record is generated and populated with respective data from each of one or more of the matched source data records. The integrated data record is linked to each source record.

Abstract: A system and method for troubleshooting problems in complex systems using multiple knowledgebases comprises a first knowledgebase that has a case-based reasoning engine and knowledge from which a first set of possible solutions can be determined, and a second knowledgebase that has a case-based reasoning engine and knowledge from which a second set of possible solutions can be determined. The first knowledgebase pertains to a first equipment, and the second knowledgebase pertains to a second equipment. The second equipment is a component of the first equipment. A Federation Manager associated with the first knowledgebase transfers a case-based reasoning session between the first and second knowledge-bases.

Abstract: A wound dressing system comprising a wrap and a frangible ampoule is provided. The wrap is configured to contact/surround a wound site and includes an oxygen catalyst. The ampoule includes an oxygen precursor. The catalyst and precursor are configured to form oxygen when combined. A wound dressing system including a container is also provided that includes a powder, wrap, and frangible ampoule. The powder is disposed within the container, which is configured to allow the powder to be dispersed onto a wound site when activated. The wrap, which may include an oxygen catalyst, is also disposed in the container and is configured to contact/surround the wound site. The ampoule, also disposed in the container, includes a liquid containing an oxygen precursor. The liquid is configured to contact the wrap when the container is activated. Further, the catalyst and precursor are configured to form oxygen when combined.

Abstract: The invention provides a multi-compartmented container suitable for the delivery of pharmaceuticals, medicines, vitamins, and the like.

Abstract: A method of network surveillance includes receiving network packets handled by a network entity and building at least one long-term and at least one short-term statistical profile from a measure of the network packets that monitors data transfers, errors, or network connections. A comparison of the statistical profiles is used to determine whether the difference between the statistical profiles indicates suspicious network activity.

Abstract: A hydrometallurgical system and process with a hydrometallurgical processing circuit integrated with an ion transport membrane assembly. The ion transport membrane assembly provide oxygen to the hydrometallurgical processing circuit.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a probe configured to be mounted in a tank for at least partial immersion in a liquid. The probe has a body disposed inside the fuel tank. A capacitance-to-digital (CDC) circuit is disposed on the probe in the tank, such that the CDC is disposed inside the fuel tank and is operably connected to the body.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention is a method and apparatus for generating highly predictive blacklists. One embodiment of a method for generating a blacklist of network addresses for a user of a network includes collecting security log data from users of the network, the security log data identifying observed attacks by attack sources, assigning the attack sources to the blacklist based on a combination of the relevance each attack source to the user and the maliciousness of the attack source, and outputting the blacklist.

Abstract: A system for providing a reliable and redundant enterprise management solution includes an appliance disposed at a healthcare facility and a pair device disposed at a remote facility. The appliance includes first processing circuitry, a first virtualization manager and a first synchronizer. The first processing circuitry is configured to enable execution of a plurality of applications. The first virtualization manager is configured to virtualize at least storage components and an execution environment for at least some of the applications. The pair device includes second processing circuitry, a second virtualization manager and a second synchronizer. The second processing circuitry provides redundancy for the first processing circuitry. The second virtualization manager is configured to provide redundancy with respect to the virtualized storage components and execution environment.

Abstract: A continuously variable valve lift mechanism for an internal combustion engine includes a cam, a cam follower, a valve follower, a rocker shaft, and a rocker arm. The cam follower includes a first roller driven by the cam and a second roller. The valve follower includes a driven face in contact with the second roller of the cam follower and a driving face. The rocker shaft contacts the valve follower. Rotational movement of the rocker shaft about a rocker shaft rotational axis results in movement of the driven face with respect to the second roller. The rocker arm has a pivot axis and is in contact with the driving face of the valve follower.

Abstract: A subscriber device receives a message from a network device external to the subscriber device, where the network device implements a first metering engine that meters usage of a network service by a subscriber using the subscriber device and where the message includes the subscriber's usage data. The subscriber device includes a second usage metering engine that receives the subscriber's usage data from the usage synchronization unit, and performs real-time metering of the subscriber's usage of the network service, based on the subscriber's usage data received from the network device and independently of the first metering engine of the network device, to generate real-time usage metering data. The second usage metering engine further outputs the real-time usage metering data to a display at the subscriber device.
