  • Publication number: 20230026471
    Abstract: A transport and delivery system which may be used for injectable materials such as radioactive injectables. The system includes a base configured to hold a material transport device containing the injectable material, and a cover including a material delivery system and a material access device. The cover is configured to be mated over the base to result in alignment of the material access device with the material transport device to allow the material delivery system to deliver the injectable materials from within the material transport device to a patient. A priming cap may be provided to facilitate priming of the material delivery system and material access device to be substantially airless.

  • Patent number: 10169734
    Abstract: Techniques are described for dynamically adjusting the layout of an organizational chart being presented inside a browser window. Adjusting the layout of the organization chart has certain advantages such as ensuring that the organizational chart can be displayed in the browser window with minimal scrolling. The direct reports of a manager can be presented as a matrix in the organizational chart when the manager is selected. In one example, the layout of the matrix can be a vertical vector or a two dimensional vector depending on the number of direct reports the manager has. In another example, the layout of the matrix can change depending on the space available within the browser window to display the matrix. In other examples, the organizational chart can also be scaled based on the screen resolution or screen size of the client device that is presenting the organizational chart.

  • Patent number: 9710789
    Abstract: An organizational chart view can include a plurality of icons each representing a person in an organization that are arranged to reflect a hierarchical organizational structure of the organization. A received first user input can include designation of two or more of the plurality of icons as part of a selected population, and a received second user input can include a selection of an analytical view to be applied to the selected population. The organizational chart view can be morphed to the selected analytical view, for example by generating animation effects to translate the plurality of icons in the selected population to form the selected analytical view.

  • Publication number: 20160055263
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques for a search feature within a business suite. The business suite includes one or more software applications configured to interoperate with one another. The one or more software applications can perform business functions which support the core business of the organization. The search feature receives a search query from a user and matches the search query to matching paraphrases (i.e., keywords) of actions in an actions database. If a match is found between a matching paraphrase and the search query, a presentation paraphrase that corresponds with the matching paraphrase is presented as part of a search result. Subsequent selection of the presentation paraphrase can cause the action to be executed.
