Abstract: A server system for managing electronic content receives the electronic content at a data flow adapter. The electronic content is to be stored at a data storage system. The server system attempts to transmit the electronic content from the data flow adapter to the data storage system but receives a notification indicating that the data storage system will not store the electronic content. In response to the notification, the server system temporarily stores the electronic content at a data staging memory. A staging data adapter polls the data staging memory for electronic content awaiting to be stored at the data storage system. The server system detects the electronic content stored at the data staging memory and, in response, causes the staging data adapter to move the electronic content from the data staging memory to the data storage system when the data storage system will store the electronic content.

Abstract: Various embodiments described herein relate to remote monitoring and management of assets from a portfolio of assets based on an asset model. In this regard, a request to generate a dashboard visualization associated with a portfolio of assets is received. The request includes an asset descriptor that describes one or more assets in the portfolio of assets. In response to the request, aggregated data associated with the portfolio of assets is obtained based on the asset descriptor. Contextual data is also determined for the portfolio of assets based on asset relationship data for the aggregated data. Based on the contextual data, prioritized actions for the portfolio of assets are determined. Furthermore, the dashboard visualization is provided to an electronic interface of a computing device, the dashboard visualization comprising the prioritized actions for the portfolio of assets.

Abstract: A server system receives an electronic document from a client system to be stored at a content management system. The server system generates multiple copies of the electronic document that are stored in parallel at respective multiple instances of the content management system. The server system receives a request to retrieve a copy of the electronic document. In response to the request, the server system checks, by a load balancer, whether the respective multiple instances of the content management system are operational to retrieve the copy of the electronic document. The server system then performs load balancing by the load balancer in accordance with a round-robin process to select a particular instance and retrieves the copy of the electronic document from the particular instance of the content management system.

Abstract: Real time strain imaging is provided by acquiring a sequence of cardiac image frames and estimating tissue displacement in the myocardium over a heart cycle. The displacements are used to calculate strain over the myocardium and a color map is formed of the strain values. During the next heart cycle the color map is warped to fit the myocardium in each image frame and the warped color map is displayed as a color overlay over the myocardium of each image of the new heart cycle as they are displayed in real time. A new color map is also produced over the new heart cycle for use with the following heart cycle. An ultrasound system which performs real time strain imaging is also described.

Abstract: A food recycler can include a housing defining an interior and an access opening to the interior. A mixing bin can be located within the interior and can have an inlet and an outlet. The food recycler can further include an output bin, the output bin having an inlet. The outlet of the mixing bin can couple or connect to the inlet of the output bin. The food recycler further has a transfer assembly for transferring food waste from the mixing bin to the output bin. The transfer assembly includes a chute mounted to the housing and operably coupling the first outlet of the mixing bin to the second inlet of the output bin, and at least one vibration damper positioned between the housing and the chute configured to allow flexibility of the chute to vibrate relative to the housing.

Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system and method filter the data of successive ultrasonic images of moving tissue. At least two successive images are clutter filtered to remove clutter in the image data from stationary objects. The successive images and the filtered successive images are both used to produce displacement images of frame to frame tissue motion, and a quality metric is produced of the quality of the estimated displacement. The displacement image with the best quality metric is selected for further processing such as the production of strain images. The selected displacement image may further be spatially filtered to reduce boundary artifacts.

Abstract: Example dynamic pricing systems and methods are described. In one implementation, a method receives an indication of an occurrence of a first event unrelated to a particular customer. The method also receives an indication of an occurrence of a second event unrelated to a particular customer. Based on the first event and the second event, the method determines whether to adjust a price associated with a particular item. If the method determines that the price associated with the particular item needs adjustment, a new price for the particular item is determined based on the first event and the second event.
