  • Publication number: 20240009473
    Abstract: The invention provides method, device, and system to commission medical devices using different wireless communication protocol or from different manufacturers to a network by introducing a pairing device and a guiding device. The commissioning process includes two steps, e.g., a pairing the medical device to the pairing device and a pairing between the pairing device and server of the network. By configuring a pairing device dynamically with the aid of a guiding device, the pairing device can receive broadcast messages from medical devices using different communication protocols and send the same to a remote server having a specific network address. Further, the guiding device is introduced not only to assist in the configuration of the pairing device, but also provide an opportunity to the pairing device to obtain a real-time feedback from the remote server through the guiding device during installation.

  • Publication number: 20230273990
    Abstract: Techniques for code modification for detecting abnormal activity are described. Web code is obtained. Modified web code is generated by changing a particular programmatic element to a modified programmatic element throughout the web code. Instrumentation code is generated configured to monitor and report on one or more interactions with versions of the particular programmatic element. The instrumentation code is caused to be provided in association with the modified web code to the first client device in response to the first request from the first client device. Report data generated by the instrumentation code is received. The report data describes abnormal activity at the first client device, the abnormal activity comprising an interaction with a version of the particular programmatic element that does not exist in the modified web code. Based on the report, it is determined that the first client device is likely controlled by malware.

  • Patent number: 11139066
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and tools for enhancing cognition in an individual. The methods involve presenting to the individual multiple sets of stimuli. Each set of the multiple set contains two or more stimuli and at least one set of the multiple sets contains a target stimulus. The method then receives an input from the individual, and informs the individual as to whether the input is a correct response. The methods encompass iterations of stimuli presentation, receiving of the input, and lastly, generation of feedback to the individual until the individual learns and retains what the target stimulus is.
