  • Patent number: 11588764
    Abstract: A workflow manager can be configured to present a graphical interface to an entity and display a current status of a workflow via the graphical interface. Via the graphical interface, the entity can provide one or more indications that indicate an entry condition for the workflow, one or more message communications, and one or more filter conditions. The entity can activate the workflow and cause the workflow manager to identify a user population that satisfies the entry condition and cause the user population to be presented with the one or more message communications and the one or more filter conditions of the workflow. Different user segments of the user population may be assigned to different user paths, where each user segment receives different communications based on their corresponding user paths.

  • Patent number: 11428491
    Abstract: A muzzle device for a firearm may include an additively manufactured body having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a central bore extending from the first end to the second end. The body may include a lattice of triply periodic minimal surfaces that define an interconnected network of channels extending through the body such that gases produced by the firearm may flow in a random pattern from the central bore through the interconnected network of channels to cool the gases.

  • Patent number: 11171898
    Abstract: A workflow manager can be configured to present a graphical interface to an entity and display a current status of a user population within an active workflow. The workflow manager can identify and monitor individual user actions associated with user paths of the active workflow. The workflow manager can generate user path and workflow analytics that identify the progress of individual users and summarize the overall progress of the user population within the active workflow. The workflow analytics can be generated from event notifications that are emitted by the communications and filters of the active workflow. The graphical interface can be actively updated, in response to the emission of the event notifications, to present the workflow analytics and user population progress to the entity.

  • Publication number: 20210136012
    Abstract: A workflow manager can be configured to present a graphical interface to an entity that displays a recommended activity for a workflow via the graphical interface. The entity can approve the recommended activity via the graphical interface and cause an updated workflow to be presented via the graphical interface. The entity can cause the workflow manager to present a recommended activity by submitting a high value action. The workflow manager can identify users from prior workflows that completed the high value action and configure the recommended addition based on those users. The entity can cause the workflow manager to identify users, generate the recommended activity, and update the activity over the workflow lifecycle.

  • Patent number: 6852854
    Abstract: The present invention is directed, in general, to a method for making high yields of functionalized cyclic or acyclic tertiary amine-containing compounds, termed active esters, the functionalized compounds themselves, and diagnostic or therapeutic systems incorporating such compounds. Ester groups are attached to all but one of its Nitrogen atoms of the tertiary amine-containing compound. Therefore, an active agent, in the presence of coupling agent, attaches to the remaining amine via a carboxylate group attached to the amine, to produce high yields of the active ester. The active ester is then combined with a biomolecule, to produce high yields of a bioconjugated product. A metal ion may be chelated to the bioconjugated product to produce a chelating agent for use in either diagnostic or therapeutic applications.
