Abstract: A neuromodulation therapy is delivered via at least one electrode implanted subcutaneously and superficially to a fascia layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. In one example, an implantable medical device is deployed along a superficial surface of a deep fascia tissue layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. Electrical stimulation energy is delivered to the nerve through the deep fascia tissue layer via implantable medical device electrodes.

Abstract: A software/hardware system which provides immediate, on-going interaction between an institution and its customers. The system communicates with customers/subscribers over numerous, different communication channels and actively screens market conditions for situations that could potentially impact its customers, based on the customers' unique situation and prearranged instructions. The system and method interacts with the institution's processing centers which handle incoming customer transactions and the system creates outgoing messages. The system has a decision making component used to make the decision in each case as to which information to push to the customer in the form of a message. The message is delivered to the customer via any communication channels presently known.

Abstract: A system and method for mining data for intelligent patterns uses logical techniques to isolate unique patterns and reduce the patterns to a consistent set of rules representing the data. The system and method eliminates attributes in the patterns that do not contribute to an associated conclusion and are deemed irrelevant. This approach does not splinter significant patterns within the data, as may occur with statistical approaches. In addition, the system and method identifies areas of incomplete data that are not recognized in other methods.

Abstract: Methods and an arrangement providing improved expert system performance. A mathematically based method is used in building a rule base that guarantees a complete and consistent rule set, providing an aid for identifying missing rules. The method is used in recognizing input variable patterns in parallel to provide rapid inferencing. An arrangement based on the method is given for a content addressable memory capable of returning an address of an executable routine for each rule of a rule set given the system state variables. The method is employed to provide associative program control, in which program control flow adapts to changing system state variables. A method is described for associative database management, using the new content addressable memory arrangement.

Abstract: An arrangement for gating receivers of electro-magnetic energy where optical gating means are not available or not as advantageous as gating the detector array outputs. Appropriate passive and active discharge paths for the detecting elements are provided. Path isolation means are provided for interconnecting detector and memory elements. The gated receivers are applied to obtaining 3-D surface measurements based on the time of flight of a transmitted energy pulse.

Abstract: A video processor for a track-while-scan radar system, wherein each radar return, within a tracking window, is given a range weight corresponding to the range bin within the range sweep and an angle weight corresponding to a sweep count, which is initiated at the commencement of the tracking window. The weights for each return are summed to obtain a range weighted sum and an angle weighted sum, each sum then being coupled to a computer along with the total number of radar returns recorded within the tracking window. The video processor, on information supplied by the computer, establishes an annular ring about the radar system within which radar returns are sought.
