Abstract: A cloud-computing service (e.g., a “Puffin Service”) is described. The service may maintain backward and forward compatibility between skills and capabilities. Skills may be configured to enable improved tracking of a process for building data center. There may be occasions in which an orchestrator may use both skills and capabilities to drive build operations. To enable both constructs to be utilized, the Puffin Service maintains associations between skills and capabilities. These associations enable skills to be published when published capabilities are identified and corresponding capabilities to be published for published skills, which in turn allows the Orchestrator to drive build operations based on any suitable combination of capabilities and/or skills. Previously published capabilities may be identified and system-generated skills (“shadow skills”) may be used to represent the previously published capabilities, further enabling compatibility between constructs while avoiding burdensome data entry.

Abstract: A cloud-computing service (e.g., a “Puffin Service”) is described. The service may maintain service and skill catalogs corresponding to various services to be deployed to a region (e.g., during a region build). The service may host numerous user interfaces with which various service and skill metadata may be provided. In some embodiments, such data may include one or more dependencies between skills. The data managed by the cloud-computing service may be utilized to build a dependency graph. Navigation of the dependency graph may be performed via one or more user interfaces hosted by the cloud-computing service. An orchestration service (e.g., a Multi-Flock Orchestrator) may manage bootstrapping efforts for any suitable number of services during a region build based at least in part on dependencies between skills.

Abstract: Skills and skills metadata may be used to define a process for building a data center. Skills of one service may depend on skills corresponding to the same or different service. A dependency graph may be generated based on these dependencies. The graph may specify an order by which orchestration operations are to be performed to build the services, thereby building the data center. During execution of the process for building the data center, health states corresponding to the skills may be tracked (based at least in part on alarms and/or namespaces associated with the skills). When an unhealthy skill is identified, the system may traverse the dependency graph to identify a root cause (e.g., failed operations corresponding to a skill on which the unhealthy skill directly/indirectly depends). A notification and/or various options may be provided to address the unhealthy state of one or both skills.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a configurable programmer for an implantable cardiovascular medical device are disclosed. A preferred embodiment comprises a graphical user interface to visualize programming processes to alert a clinician to potential problems with the patient's condition or the therapy provided by the device, or the device itself. The programmer is further adapted to minimize the risk of programming potentially dangerous changes to the implantable device's parameter settings by requiring the clinician to first review new value changes before initiating the programming step. The programmer also allows the clinician to view how a change to one or more parameter settings affect other settings before the implantable device is programmed or re-programmed.

Abstract: An automated solid pharmaceutical product packaging machine includes a plurality of temporary storage members for receiving a plurality of solid pharmaceutical products in a plurality of cavities. The use of the temporary storage cavities enables the machine to process several prescriptions simultaneously. Advantageously, at least one of the temporary storage members is capable of being automatically displaced in a vertical direction in order to increase the capacity of the overall filling system for processing a greater number of solid pharmaceutical products while minimizing the overall footprint of the device.

Abstract: This invention utilizes data collected in the course of reflection seismic prospecting methods to produce a map, such as a vertical profile or a three-dimensional picture, of subterranean earth formations. This is accomplished by aplanatic mapping of received seismic wave trains in the memory unit of a computer taking into account the travel times of waves, the location of the source, the location of the receiver, and the velocity with which the waves travel from the source point to the deflecting point in the earth and from then to the receiver. The data recorded by each source receiver doublet is digitalized and stored aplanatically in the memory unit, taking into account both signs and amplitudes of the signals. The accumulated data represents a map of the earth formations. Sections of this map are plotted to provide desired views of the formations.
