  • Publication number: 20240126676
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and articles for determining compatibility of a mobile application and operating system on a mobile device. In some aspects, a method includes receiving one or more data values from a mobile device having a mobile medical software application installed thereon, the data value(s) characterizing a version of the software application, a version of an operating system installed on the mobile device, and one or more attributes of the mobile device; determining whether the mobile medical software application is compatible with the operating system by at least comparing the received data value(s) to one or more test values in a configuration file; and sending a message to the mobile device based on the determining, the message causing the software application to operate in one or more of a normal mode, a safe mode, and a non-operational mode.

  • Patent number: 11921975
    Abstract: An application launching user interface that includes a plurality of application icons for launching corresponding applications is displayed. A first touch input is detected on a first application icon of the plurality of application icons. The first application icon is for launching a first application that is associated with one or more corresponding quick actions. If the first touch input meets one or more application-launch criteria which require that the first touch input has ended without having met a first input threshold, the first application is launched in response to the first touch input. If the first touch input meets one or more quick-action-display criteria which require that the first touch input meets the first input threshold, one or more quick action objects associated with the first application are concurrently displayed along with the first application icon without launching the first application, in response to the first touch input.

  • Publication number: 20130161805
    Abstract: Provided, in one embodiment, is an integrated circuit (IC) leadframe. In one example, the leadframe includes a paddle, wherein the paddle has a surface configured to accept an IC chip and has at least one edge, the at least one edge having one or more slots located therein. In this example, the leadframe may further include a plurality of lead fingers having ends extending toward the at least one edge, wherein the ends of ones of pairs of adjacent lead fingers extend into corresponding slots in the paddle.

  • Patent number: 8370777
    Abstract: A method of generating a model of a leadframe IC package, a leadframe modeler and an IC design system are disclosed. In one embodiment the method includes: (1) adding connectivity information to a geometric representation of a leadframe, wherein the connectivity information represents electrical connections between the IC die and leads of the leadframe and (2) formatting the leads to represent BGA point of contacts for the IC die.

  • Patent number: 8328166
    Abstract: In a preferred embodiment, a restraint system is described for restraining a standing occupant in a vehicle such as a plane or helicopter. The restraint system includes a webbing strap that winds and unwinds from a spool assembly. The spool assembly includes a trigger assembly that locks a spool from rotation, a manual release assembly for manually releasing the trigger assembly and lock, and an adjustable payout assembly that determines the maximum length that the webbing strap can be pulled out before stopping (i.e., the number of rotations of the spool). The trigger assembly can trigger the lock assembly from one or more sensors. Further, the trigger assembly can be arranged to automatically unlock after a triggering event, manually unlocked after a triggering event or a combination of the two for different sensors.
