Abstract: In some implementations, a device may obtain a first set of information for establishing a computing node cluster that is applicable to multiple environments. The device may receive, from a client device, an indication of a second set of information for establishing the computing node cluster, wherein the second set of information is associated with a user of the client device and an environment associated with the user. The device may compile a third set of information for establishing the computing node cluster based on the first set of information and the second set of information. The device may transmit, to a server device, an indication of the third set of information to cause the server device to establish the computing node cluster. The device may monitor the computing node cluster using one or more monitoring techniques to determine a status of the computing node cluster.

Abstract: Methods and systems that utilize centrifugally tensioned metastable fluid detector (CTMFD) sensors and an external probing source to detect the presence of fissile and fissionable materials, including but not limited to special nuclear materials (SNMs), in containers. Such a method includes subjecting a container to probing with a fission-inducing radiation species that induces fission in an fissile or fissionable material, detecting fission neutrons emitted from the fissile or fissionable material with CTMFD sensors that each contain a detection fluid in which the fission neutrons induce cavitation in a centrifugally tensioned portion of the detection fluid. A threshold energy neutron analysis mode is then utilized to reject the radiation species and detect a fraction of the fission neutrons that have energies above a predetermined energy threshold determined by centrifugally-induced tension in the centrifugally tensioned portion of the detection fluid within each of the CTMFD sensors.

The image processor may be configured to compare the image data from the camera with data related to known animals and determine the likelihood of a match between an animal in the image data and a known animal.

Abstract: A method of making synthetic polymer pellet feedstock having a high concentration of an anti-microbial agent includes the steps of: introducing a polymer into a mixing vessel; introducing a polysiloxane dispersant into the mixing vessel; introducing an anti-microbial agent comprised of a powdered metal material into the mixing vessel; heating and mixing the polymer, the polysiloxane dispersant and the anti-microbial agent to form a molten blend that exhibits a generally homogenous dispersal of the anti-microbial agent; extruding the molten blend to form filaments; and cutting the filaments to form metalized synthetic polymer pellet feedstock. The powdered metal material includes particles of silver in metallic or salt form measuring between about 2 micrometers and about 12 micrometers and particles of copper in metallic or salt form measuring between about 2 micrometers and about 12 micrometers.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus and method of removably fixing and carrying workpiece objects on a motor driven tool. A magnetized accessory for the motor driven tool includes a flexible pad configured to conform to at least a portion of an exterior surface of the tool such that the pad does not cover any air flow vent of the tool. A magnet is disposed within the pad and the accessory includes a mechanism for attaching the pad to the exterior surface of the tool. A process for removably fixing and carrying workpiece objects on a motor driven tool includes providing a generally flat, flexible, magnetized pad. The pad is engaged with the tool and a workpiece object is removably attached to the pad.

A top unit includes a washing basin which receives fresh solvent from a solvent reservoir assembly. The top unit overlies a holding pan and a solvent flushing assembly provides for the control and removal of contaminated solvent from the washing basin into the pan and the introduction of fresh solvent into the washing basin from the solvent reservoir assembly.

Abstract: A methodology for determining the common attributes of two systems or entities is shown. This methodology includes a content independent options negotiation. Tree structures are defined for each entity or system. These tree structures include relational operators and attributes. The tree defining the relational operations and attributes is installed within each entity. For initiating communications between entities, each entity sends its own tree and receives the other system's tree. Comparison analysis is then performed upon the trees to determine where they intersect or match. Matching attributes may indicate that communications between entities may take place.
