    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described. A battery management system may receive, in accordance with a smart contract in support of a blockchain, an indication of an agreement between a sponsor and a user of a rechargeable battery associated with a battery identifier. The agreement may indicate battery usage conditions and a token release amount for each of the battery usage conditions. The battery management system may receive battery usage information associated with the battery identifier of the rechargeable battery. The battery management system may determine that the battery usage information satisfies the battery usage conditions.

  • Publication number: 20040019654
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for electronic administration of an exercise regimen. The exercise regimen is prepared electronically by a therapist via a therapist interface displayed by an electronic device such as a PDA. The exercise regimen is customizable for the patient. Related exercise information may be retrieved and delivered to the patient in addition to the exercise regimen by wireless transmission to the patient's electronic device, such as a PDA, for viewing via a patient interface. The patient interface's display of information may be customized to present images and instructions specific to the exercises selected by the therapist and to display the name of the therapist and/or therapist contact information to allow for resolution of questions/concerns. Additionally, reminder messages may be provided to the patient to prompt performance of the exercises in accordance with the therapist-specified schedule.
