Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for providing conversion path performance measures and reports. In one aspect, user interaction data are obtained, were the user interaction data specify user interactions for a plurality of conversions. User interactions that are associated with each conversion are selected from the user interaction data, where the associated user interactions for each conversion are user interactions with a converting user during the conversion cycle for the conversion. Using the user interaction data for the selected user interactions, a quantity of user interactions that are associated with each conversion and occurred during the conversion cycle for the conversion are determined. In turn, conversion path performance measures are computed and reports specifying the conversion path performance measures are generated.

Abstract: A band includes a latch body that is movable by pulling a tab. The latch body extends through an opening of the band and secures with a pin located on a head-mountable device. The band can detach from the head-mountable device by pulling the tab, which actuates the latch body and removes the latch body from the pin. A spring (or springs) can bias the latch body toward the opening, causing the latch body to enter the pin. An applied force to the tab can overcome the biasing force provided by the spring(s), and move the latch body away from, and out of, the pin.

Abstract: In some examples, a ventilator includes a pneumatic connection configured to receive supply gas; an inspiratory path configured to deliver conditioned gas to lungs of a patient; a valve pneumatically connected to the pneumatic connection and configured to allow flow of the supply gas to the inspiratory path when the valve is open and block flow of the supply gas to the inspiratory path when the valve is closed; a pressure sensor configured to measure a pressure of the supply gas at the pneumatic connection; and electronic control circuitry configured to control an opening and closing of the valve based on the measured pressure to produce a desired volume of conditioned gas in the inspiratory path.

Abstract: A packet forwarding network may include switches that forward network packets between end hosts. A monitoring network may be coupled to the forwarding network. A controller may control switches in the monitoring network to forward network packets tapped from the forwarding network to one or more packet recorders. The packet recorders may store the tapped packets and the controller may query the stored packets at a later time. The controller may analyze queried packets to monitor the operation of the packet forwarding network and, if desired, to display graphical visualizations associated with the packet forwarding network. If desired, the controller may instruct the packet recorders to replay the tapped packets to network visibility tools through the monitoring network. The controller may coordinate storage and query operations across multiple packet recorders using the monitoring network so that the packet storage capacity and recording rate may be scaled up over time.

Abstract: Techniques are provided to adjust network settings for network connectivity resources used by a host server. A network card device, coupled to the host server, receives instructions to adjust network settings associated with the host server. Power is received from the host server at the network card device in order to allow the network card device to configure the network settings while the host server is in a standby mode. The network card device receives commands to adjust the network settings while the host server is in the standby mode.
