  • Publication number: 20230127315
    Abstract: A method of sending an emergency alert from a wearable device. The wearable device is connected to a low-power wide area cellular network and to global positioning services as soon as it is turned on. The wearable device receives inputs from the user and/or from at least one sensor located within the wearable device measuring parameters associated with the status of the user. A determination is then made if an emergency condition has occurred, if so, an emergency alert is transmitted to recipients based on a configured set of emergency contacts. The determining of an emergency condition occurs based on the inputs received through the wearable device or by the inputs received by the at least one sensor corresponding with a set of rules established for determining if an emergency alert should be sent.

  • Publication number: 20210095902
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are advantageous phase separator devices, and related methods of fabrication and use thereof. The present disclosure provides improved phase separator devices for phase separation of feedstreams, and improved systems/methods for utilizing and fabricating the phase separator devices. More particularly, the present disclosure provides porous (e.g., three-dimensional gradient porous) phase separator devices for phase separation of fluid mixtures (e.g., to separate a two-phase fluid mixture) to a first fluid phase flow (e.g., to a liquid flow) and to a second fluid phase flow (e.g., to a gas flow). At least a portion of the phase separator devices of the present disclosure can be fabricated via machining, powder metallurgy (e.g., sintering), and/or produced utilizing additive manufacturing techniques.

  • Patent number: 9888050
    Abstract: An approach for integrating network elements and providing media processing services, which includes generating at least one integration interface for integrating at least one network element into a media processing platform. The approach also includes determining access information associated with the at least one network element, generating a master parameters list for the at least one network element for use in a processing of a media content item, and communicating the master parameters list via the at least one integration interface to the at least one network element.

  • Patent number: 9230281
    Abstract: One or more devices within a transaction services hub collect session data of transaction services for multiple customers and provide a user interface with reporting options for transaction services associated with a particular customer. The user interface is accessible to a user device via a public network connection. The one or more devices receive a report request from a user account associated with the particular customer and retrieve, from the collected session data, data responsive to the report request. The one or more devices generate a report for the particular customer based on the report request and the data responsive to the report request.

  • Publication number: 20130166438
    Abstract: One or more devices within a transaction services hub receive, from a first network device, provisioning information for customers of a transaction services network. The one or more devices also receive, from a second network device, first session data for transaction services using an Internet Protocol (IP) network, and receive, from a third network device, second session data for transaction services using a voice network. The one or more devices load, in a database, the provisioning information, the first session data, and the second session data, and merge, based on the provisioning information, the first session data and the second session data. The merged data is retrieved to support request from administrators and customers via other components of the transaction services hub.

  • Publication number: 20090150432
    Abstract: A method and system to manage web content is provided to generate an abstraction layer between a web application and content, based on a formal definition of content referred to as a content contract. An example recruiter referral widget comprises an event detector, a referral code module, and an upload module. The event detector may be configured to detect, at a third party system, a referral event associated with a resume document. The referral code module may be configured to obtain a referral code. The referral code may be generated at an employment marketplace organization to uniquely associate the resume document with the third party. The upload module may be configured to upload the resume document and the associated referral code to the employment marketplace organization.

  • Publication number: 20050032657
    Abstract: Alkaline-containing cleaning compositions and method of using the cleaning compositions for cleaning microelectronic substrates, particularly FPD microelectronic substrates, which compositions are able to essentially completely clean such substrates and produce essentially no metal corrosion of the metal elements of such substrates.
