  • Patent number: 9613099
    Abstract: A dynamical hierarchical tagging system connected to a user site through a remote communications network. The system may comprise a master controller, a job management server connected to the master controller, one or more scanners in communication with the job management server, wherein the one or more scanners are configured to scan for one or more user assets located at the user site, resulting in scan results, a scan logic processor connected to the master controller, wherein the scan logic processor is configured to store the scan results in a user database, a tagging logic engine connected to the master controller, wherein the tagging logic engine is configured to tag the scan results stored in the user database, and an indexing logic processor connected to the master controller, wherein the indexing logic processor is configured to search and index the tagged scan results stored in the user database.

  • Patent number: 8246623
    Abstract: An instrument and method for reducing a vertebral rod into an anchor attached to a vertebral member. The instrument may include a gripper and an attached reduction member that includes a handle and shaft. The gripper is configured to attach to an anchor and may include an asymmetrical shape to accommodate the anatomy of a patient and a funneled capturing space to facilitate reduction of the vertebral rod. The reduction member may be configured to apply a reduction force to the vertebral rod at the various axial and lateral medial positions within the capturing space. The reduction member may also provide for course and fine movement of the shaft during the movement of the vertebral rod.

  • Patent number: 7788150
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for determining risk associated with a business. The risk determination calculates risk with one or more policy controls associated with one or more business objects in a business object tree. Risk calculated for the policy controls is rolled-up to a business object using an algorithm that does not dilute the risk associated with the policy controls. Likewise, the risk for a business object is rolled-up to the parents of the business object. Risk is finally rolled-up to a highest order business object, which represents the risk associated with the business.

  • Publication number: 20080208645
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for traversing a business object tree and an associated policy object tree. The traversal determines determine all ancestral business objects to any one business object of interest. The traversal also determines all policy objects associated with the ancestral objects or the business object of interest. The traversal algorithm may traverse the policy object tree to determine all policy controls linked to the associated policy objects. By traversing the business object tree and the policy object tree, the traversal algorithm provides a group of one or more policy controls associated with any one business item of interest.
