  • Patent number: 8898761
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for real-time automated generating and validating configuration files for provisioning computing devices. For example, method for provisioning a computing device includes receiving a user request to configure a computing device to access a service, generating a device configuration file to enable access to the service, validating the configuration file before deploying the configuration file to the computing device by testing configuration settings of the configuration file against the service for which the configuration file is generated to access, and deploying the configuration file to the computing device when the configuration file is deemed valid.

  • Publication number: 20090081605
    Abstract: The present invention provides a scaler light delivery device comprising a light delivery tip and a light delivery assembly comprising a housing member, a light source and an electronic assembly comprising magnetic means, a rectifier and current control means, wherein the light delivery tip is in secured but removable communication with the light delivery assembly; the light source is in electrical communication with the electronic assembly; the device is adapted for insertion into a receiver of a scaler and when the device is in communication with the receiver, the electronic assembly converts magnetic field energy provided by the receiver into electric energy to power the light source thereby allowing the device to deliver light out of the light delivery tip in a desired illumination pattern and at least one predetermined wavelength. The present invention also includes a method of making the device and using it.
