Abstract: A computer-implemented method for visualizing a supply chain is provided. The method comprises receiving a selection of a first company stored in a database and retrieving, from the database, a first number of consignment companies that buy products from the first company. A second number of consignment companies that buy products from the first number of consignment companies are retrieved from the database. The method further comprises retrieving, from the database, a first number of supplier companies that sell products to the first company and then retrieving, from the database, a second number of supplier companies that sell products to the first number of supplier companies. A supply chain tree diagram is displayed in an interface, wherein the consignment companies and supplier companies are displayed as nodes branching from the first company.

Abstract: A method for visualizing corporate hierarchies is provided. The method comprises receiving a selection of a first company stored in a database and retrieving, from the database, an ultimate parent company of the first company. All other known companies with the same ultimate parent company as the first company are then retrieved from the database. An interactive hierarchical tree diagram is displayed in an interface, wherein the first company, the ultimate parent company, and the other known companies with the same ultimate parent company are displayed as nodes according to parent/child relationships among the companies. Also displayed in the interface, adjacent to the tree diagram, is a collapsible nested tree list comprising the first company, the ultimate parent company, and the other known companies with the same ultimate parent company. The tree diagram and nested tree list have synchronized responses to user input.

Abstract: Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are commonly used to assess patients with known or suspected pathologies of the lungs and liver. In particular, identification and quantification of possibly malignant regions identified in these high-resolution images is essential for accurate and timely diagnosis. However, careful quantitative assessment of lung and liver lesions is tedious and time consuming. This disclosure describes an automated end-to-end pipeline for accurate lesion detection and segmentation.

Abstract: Examples described herein relate to signing of files based on file security credentials. A signing request for a file is received from a file author device. The signing request may include a file identifier associated with the file and a first key identifier associated with a first key stored in a hardware security module (HSM). File security credentials associated with the file may be obtained from one or more file security databases using the file identifier. A file security value for the file may be determined based on the file security credentials. On determining that the file security value satisfies a predetermined first key criteria, the file may be signed using the first key.

Abstract: A method includes determining whether the first version is an alias with respect to the second version, the alias being defined as an equivalent version of the YANG module. Based at least in part on a determination that the first version is the alias with respect to the second version, a version alias extension is inserted into a revision label of the first and/or second version. Based on a determination that the second version is backwards compatible with respect to the first version, a version backwards compatible extension is inserted into the revision label of the second version. Based at least in part on a determination that the second version is not backwards compatible with respect to the first version, a version non-backwards compatible extension is inserted into the revision label of the second version.

Abstract: Concrete made using the protocol described herein converts more of the available calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) into calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and distributes it more thoroughly throughout the concrete mixture by converting it into calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2) by adjusting the pH of the hydrating liquid and then deliberately adjusting the pH of the hydrating liquid again when precipitation of the CaCO3 from the hydration liquid is desired to more uniformly coat the materials used in a concrete mix. This process creates more CaCO3 in concrete than current methods on the market and that has been demonstrated to increase the structural and chemical properties of the concrete.
