  • Publication number: 20160119489
    Abstract: An image forming system includes a terminal device and an image forming device. The image forming device includes a file returning unit that returns a PDL file of a print job to the source terminal device which had sent the print job as a comparison PDL file through a network. The terminal device includes a file transmitting unit that temporarily stores the PDL file of the print job in a first memory as a reference PDL file on transmission of the PDL file of the print job to the image forming device through the network, a file judging unit that judges whether or not the comparison PDL file returned from the image forming device matches with the reference PDL file, and a file storing unit that stores the comparison PDL file in the first memory if the comparison PDL file does not match with the reference PDL file.

  • Patent number: 7491169
    Abstract: A process and apparatus for measuring pressure buildup in a body compartment that encases muscular tissue. The method includes assessing the body compartment configuration and identifying the effect of pulsatible components on compartment dimensions and muscle tissue characteristics. This process is used in preventing tissue necrosis, and in decisions of whether to perform surgery on the body compartment for prevention of Compartment Syndrome. An apparatus is used for measuring pressure build-up in the body compartment having components for imparting ultrasonic waves such as a transducer, placing the transducer to impart the ultrasonic waves, capturing the imparted ultrasonic waves, mathematically manipulating the captured ultrasonic waves and categorizing pressure build-up in the body compartment from the mathematical manipulations.

  • Patent number: 7381186
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring pressure buildup in a body compartment that encases muscular tissue. The method includes assessing the body compartment configuration and identifying the effect of pulsatile components on at least one compartment dimension. This process is used in preventing tissue necrosis, and in decisions of whether to perform surgery on the body compartment for prevention of Compartment Syndrome. An apparatus is used for measuring excess pressure in the body compartment having components for imparting ultrasonic waves such as a transducer, placing the transducer to impart the ultrasonic waves, capturing the reflected imparted ultrasonic waves, and converting them to electrical signals, a pulsed phase-locked loop device for assessing a body compartment configuration and producing an output signal, and means for mathematically manipulating the output signal to thereby categorize pressure build-up in the body compartment from the mathematical manipulations.
