  • Publication number: 20180104057
    Abstract: A replacement heart valve system may include a delivery sheath and a replacement heart valve. The replacement heart valve may include a mesh anchor member disposed within the delivery sheath in an elongated delivery configuration, the mesh anchor member being expandable to a deployed configuration when unconstrained by the delivery sheath. The mesh anchor member may include an upstream chamber, a downstream chamber, and a tubular middle portion extending between the upstream chamber and the downstream chamber. The replacement heart valve may include a diaphragm disposed within the downstream chamber of the mesh anchor member, wherein the diaphragm is configured to selectively prevent fluid flow through the replacement heart valve.

  • Patent number: 9100202
    Abstract: A system to determine a hierarchical model comprising two or more associated nodes, each of the nodes associated with one or more message producers and one or more message consumers, receive a message from one of the one or more message producers; and route the message to one or more of the one or more message consumers based on the hierarchical model. The hierarchical model may include a root node and a plurality of nodes descending from the root node, the plurality of nodes including the two or more associated nodes, wherein each of the plurality of nodes is associated with a topic, a parent node, one or more child nodes, one or more message producers, and one or more message consumers. Routing the message may comprise traversing two or more nodes of the hierarchical model based on first logic.

  • Publication number: 20110231354
    Abstract: A car pooling transport management system (1) comprises a central server (2) having a bank of prediction servers (3) linked with a geographical model (4). Vehicle on-board units (OBUs, 6) have prediction clients (7) which communicate with the central server (2) via a mobile network (10). Each OBU (6) has a satellite locating system, in this case GPS-based, to track actual vehicle position. Each prediction client 7 develops a vehicle prediction model for the driver's regular routes and communicates data concerning the vehicle prediction model to a prediction server (3) running on the central server (2), and in a normal transport/commuting mode compares in real time the position and timing of the actual mute of the vehicle against a route of the vehicle prediction model and transmits progress updates to the prediction server (3). The prediction server 3 consolidates the data from the various prediction clients 7 and builds a geographical model 4 for all of the OBUs 6 of the system 1.

  • Patent number: 7840427
    Abstract: The network system matches the supply and demand of transportation services by incorporating unused transportation capacity (i.e., empty seats) with a real-time allocation and matching service that enables individuals and goods to conveniently hire that capacity with attractive pricing, rapid responsiveness, better information availability and trusted security. The network system provides an electronic registry of capacity containing an indication of the spare transport capacity and location of a plurality of transport vehicles, an electronic registry of demand containing an indication of the demand for transportation needs of a plurality of individuals and a central processing capability to effect a match of the transport capacity of at least one transport vehicle with the transport demand of at least one individual.
