Abstract: An apparatus for endovascular repair of aorta root includes a self-expanding valved conduit and a self-expanding non-valved conduit. The valved conduit is configured for endovascular placement within an aortic valve of a subject. The valved conduit includes a valve between a distal end and a proximal end and includes a fenestration disposed between the valve and the proximal end of the valved conduit. The fenestration is configured for allowing fluid flow from inside the valved conduit to a coronary artery of the subject. The non-valved conduit is configured for endovascular placement within an aortic root of the subject. The proximal end of the valved conduit is fixed inside a distal end of the non-valved conduit and the distal end of the valved conduit extends outside the distal end of the non-valved conduit. The non-valved conduit also includes a fenestration in fluid communication with the fenestration in the valved conduit.

Abstract: A modular cannula for drainage and return of fluids from and to a body, such as the body of a patient, is adjustable to enable an operator to achieve desired flow characteristics during such fluid drainage and return procedures. The modular, dual-lumen cannula system has an outer drainage cannula and an inner return cannula that is moveable with respect to the outer drainage cannula. By enabling movement of the inner return cannula with respect to the outer drainage cannula, a distance between return outlet ports at the distal end of the return cannula and drainage ports at the distal end of the drainage cannula may be manually adjusted. Such adjustable distance allows for optimal positioning of both the drainage and return ports that are particularly adapted to an individual patient’s physiology, in turn enabling optimal fluid flow characteristics to be achieved regardless of that patient physiology.

Abstract: A sandbox architecture that isolates and identifies misbehaving plug-ins (intentional or unintentional) to prevent system interruptions and failure. Based on plug-in errors, the architecture automatically disables and blocks registration of the bad plug-in via a penalty point system. Publishers of bad plug-ins are controlled by disabling the bad plug-ins and registering the publisher in an unsafe list. Isolation can be provided in multiple levels, such as machine isolation, process isolation, secure accounts with limited access rights, and application domain isolation within processes using local security mechanisms. A combination of the multiple levels of isolation achieves a high level of security. Isolation provides separation from other plug-in executions and restriction to system resources such as file system and network IP.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for an automated service agent. Natural language inputs are obtained from a client. The natural language inputs and other data are input to machine learning models to identify intents reflected in the natural language inputs. A state in a workflow is updated to reflect the identified intents. Responses may be communicated to the client to further progress in the workflow.

Abstract: A method or system capable of providing additional storage capacity using small form-factor (“SFP”) non-volatile memory (“NVM”) solid state drive (“SSD”) with modular to modular configuration is disclosed. A system includes a processing device, SFP auxiliary plug (“SAP”), and power SAP. In one embodiment, the processing device includes multiple SFP sockets operable to provide data communication. The SAP, having a SSD connector and an auxiliary connector, facilitates storing information persistently via NVM. The SSD connector of SAP is used for communicating with the processing device when the SAP is plugged into one of the SFP sockets. The power SAP, having a power connector and a power extension connector, is capable of providing electrical power to the SAP when the power extension connector and the auxiliary connector are coupled or connected.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for loosely coupling a hosted application system with other computing systems that provide related functionality. A hosted application system is provided in one embodiment that is loosely coupled to a marketing system, a sign-up system, a billing system, and a support system. The loose coupling of the systems allows the hosted application system to be easily configured to restrict the software to which a particular customer can subscribe based upon the capacity of the hosted application system, the qualifications of a customer, or other factors. The computing systems may be configured to communicate via idempotent network APIs, thereby permitting multiple retries to ensure successful completion of requests.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for implementing a hosted multi-tenant application system. The server computers utilized to provide the hosted application are organized into logical groupings of server computers called scale groups. One or more tenants are assigned to each scale group. When a new tenant is provisioned, the tenant is assigned to a scale group and a database server in the assigned scale group creates a database for the tenant. An association between the tenant and the scale group is also created in a shared configuration database. When a request is received from a tenant to access the hosted application, the shared configuration database is consulted to locate the scale group hosting the tenant. Once the appropriate scale group has been located, the request is redirected to the appropriate scale group for processing.
