  • Publication number: 20240082604
    Abstract: A method monitors radiation incidence onto an object being prepared for and/or undergoing radiation delivery. The monitoring method includes: emitting a light field onto a surface of an object being prepared for and/or undergoing radiation delivery, the light field at least substantially corresponding to radiation incidence of the radiation delivery; monitoring the light field being reflected from the surface of the object; and processing the monitored light field to determine the radiation incidence of the radiation delivery relative to the object at least partially based on the monitored light field.

  • Publication number: 20240022519
    Abstract: A computing system supporting reliable network communications can include a virtual machine executing a user application, and a network adapter device coupled to the virtual machine via a plurality of virtual interfaces. The user application can communicate with the network adapter device using a virtual interface assigned to the user application. Queue pairs, each including a send queue and a receive queue, can be implemented to process transmit packets being sent from the virtual machine to the network and incoming packets being sent to the virtual machine from the network.

  • Patent number: 11770344
    Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for reliable, out-of-order transmission of packets. In some implementations, provided is an apparatus configured to communicate with a network and a host device. The apparatus may receive out-of-order packets from a remote device. The apparatus may transmit selective-acknowledgements to the remote device such that remote device can retransmit certain packets. The out-of-order packets can be provided to software for re-ordering.

  • Publication number: 20230210706
    Abstract: An aerosol containment enclosure is used to isolate an air mass immediately surrounding a patient known or suspected to have a disease which may be transmitted through the air. The enclosure cooperates with a patient support apparatus (PSA). In embodiments, a flexible rod supports a substantially aerosol impermeable covering and is connected to the PSA. The enclosure may be semi-rigid and collapsible to a predetermined collapsed shape. The enclosure may be rapidly erected around a patient in an ambulance or other treatment setting. Embodiments of couplers provide compatibility with a wide diversity of sized and shaped PSAs. One coupler is connectable to the PSA with a coupler end exposed along a frame and upwardly extensible toward a PSA surface. A connector extends from the flexible rod and engages with the coupler end. The coupler may be longitudinally or laterally adjustable along the PSA.

  • Publication number: 20230174194
    Abstract: A torque sensor for a bicycle includes a coil. The torque sensor may include a support that is disposable around a device of the bicycle, such that the support and the device of the bicycle are separated by an air gap. The torque sensor may also include an excitation coil supported by the support, and a sense coil supported by the support at a distance away from the excitation coil in an axial direction of the support. The excitation coil is configured to induce a voltage and/or current in the sense coil via the device of the bicycle when the support is disposed around the device of the bicycle. The induced voltage is related to a torque in the device.

  • Patent number: 11646805
    Abstract: A measurement system utilizing metasurfaces and compressive sensing is provided that measures specular and diffuse RF reflection properties of a sample omnidirectionally across a broad frequency regime in a monostatic, bistatic, or BRDF sense. The measurement system may be used to measure the full hemispherical (or spherical) reflection from a target that has been illuminated in a monostatic or bistatic case. The measurement system may also be used to measure the full BRDF of a sample or spatially complex bistatic reflections from a sample.

  • Publication number: 20230006934
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method including receiving, from a user application, data to be transmitted from a source address to a destination address using a single connection through a network; and splitting the data into a plurality of packets according to a communication protocol. For each packet of the plurality of packets, a respective flowlet for the packet to be transmitted in is determined from a plurality of flowlets. Assignment of the flowlets to the packets can be dynamically adjusted based on utilization of the flowlets.

  • Patent number: 11409546
    Abstract: A first hierarchy path associated with a first interface of a first provider is determined, with the first interface being of a first type. A second hierarchy path associated with a second interface of the first provider is determined, with the second interface being of a second type different from the first type. The first hierarchy path is determined to be a mismatch from the second hierarchy path. A third hierarchy path corresponding to another interface of the first type is obtained from a second provider. A dictionary is generated based on a determination that the third hierarchy path matches the first hierarchy path. A vector that corresponds to a third interface is generated based on the dictionary. As a result of the third interface being determined to be of the first type based on the vector, a device is caused to perform an operation against the third interface.

  • Patent number: 11386356
    Abstract: A first path associated with a first interface of a first provider is determined, with the first interface being of a first type. A second path associated with a second interface of the first provider is determined, with the second interface being of a second type. The first path is determined to be a mismatch to the second path. A third path corresponding to an additional interface of the first type is obtained from a second provider. A dictionary is generated based on the third path matching the first path. Vectors corresponding to the first and second types are generated based on the dictionary. A machine learning algorithm is trained based on the vectors with the first and second types as a ground truth values.

  • Patent number: 11343198
    Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for reliable, out-of-order transmission of packets. In some implementations, provided is an apparatus configured to communicate with a network and a host device. The apparatus may receive messages from the host device at a send queue, where each message includes destination information. The apparatus may further determine, using the destination information and an identify of the send queue, a transport context associated with a destination on the network. The apparatus may further, for each message and using the transport context, generate a packet including the message and transmit the packet over the network. The apparatus may further monitor status for each transmitted packet.
