Abstract: A plurality of constraints associated with conversational steps implemented by a conversation model is extracted from the conversation model. Using the conversational steps and the constraints, a directed graph is constructed, each node in the directed graph representing a conversational step, each directed edge in the directed graph representing a possible execution path from a first conversational step to a second conversational step. An edge in the graph is populated with flow data denoting a probability associated with the edge. By traversing a portion of the graph, an experience preview is generated, the experience preview demonstrating a user experience of a portion of the conversation model.

An example method includes receiving, by a first tracking device that is associated with a first shipment item, a tracking information of a second shipment item, the tracking information being transmitted by a second tracking device. The method also includes transmitting, by the first tracking device, a tracking message that includes the tracking information of the second shipment item and a tracking information of the first shipment item.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automated creation of a dictionary of scientific terms are described herein. Initially, input data is filtered to obtain a primary file having a plurality of term-ID pairs with each term-ID pair having a unique term ID and a scientific term. Further, a remove-term file is generated based on one or more term-ID pairs identified from the primary file such that the scientific terms of each term-ID pair corresponds to one of additional terms, frequent scientific terms, and undesirable terms. At least one term-ID pair from among the one or more term-ID pairs is altered to obtain a modified term-ID pair based on modification rules. The modified term-ID pair is added to an add-term file and a modified file is obtained based on the remove-term file and the add-term file. Duplicate term-ID pairs present in the modified file are removed to obtain the dictionary of scientific terms.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program for business process automation facilitates transforming a user's identity/credentials as part of the enablement of transaction fulfillment, e.g., within a SOA environment. In one embodiment, identity and attribute information is added to one or more business process models that each represents a sub-transaction within an overall transaction fulfillment business process flow. As the business model is mapped to an execution environment, the identity and attribute information in the model is used to configure appropriate tooling to define the identity/attribute transformation required to complete the particular portion of the transaction represented by the model.

Abstract: A method is provided for detecting a corresponding region of interest in digital medical images, the method including receiving a plurality of digital images including a primary image, at least one of the images being a projective image, identifying anatomical landmarks and structures within each of the images and correlating the images based on the identified anatomical landmarks and structures identifying a location of interest in the primary image, and automatically identifying a region of interest in the rest of the images, the region of interest corresponding to the identified location of interest in the primary image.

Abstract: Systems and methods for supporting a diagnostic workflow from a computer system are disclosed herein. In accordance with one implementation, a set of pre-identified anatomical landmarks associated with one or more structures of interest within one or more medical images are presented to a user. In response to a user input selecting at least one or more regions of interest including one or more of the pre-identified anatomical landmarks, the user is automatically navigated to the selected region of interest. In another implementation, a second user input selecting one or more measurement tools is received. An evaluation may be automatically determined based on one or more of the set of anatomical landmarks in response to the second user input.

Abstract: A method and a system are presented in which federated domains interact within a federated environment. Domains within a federation can initiate federated single-sign-on operations for a user at other federated domains. A point-of-contact server within a domain relies upon a trust proxy within the domain to manage trust relationships between the domain and the federation. Trust proxies interpret assertions from other federated domains as necessary. Trust proxies may have a trust relationship with one or more trust brokers, and a trust proxy may rely upon a trust broker for assistance in interpreting assertions. When a user is provisioned at a particular federated domain, the federated domain can provision the user to other federated domains within the federated environment. A provision operation may include creating or deleting an account for a user, pushing updated user account information including attributes, and requesting updates on account information including attributes.

Abstract: In an LDMOS device leakage and forward conduction parameters are adjusted by integrating an Schottky diode into the LDMOS by blocking the formation of one or more n+ source regions and providing a metalized region adjacent to an underlying n-epitaxial region.
