Patent CA-3026517-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SMITH KEVIN W
IPC: A61B17/068
Filed: 2006-07-25
Abstract: A medical device includes a control handle having an articulation joint actuator, a surgical end effector, and a passive articulating joint connecting the end effector to the control handle. The articulation joint actuator, when unactuated, holds the passive articulation joint and , thereby, the end effector, in a substantially fixed articulation position, and, when actuated, releases the passive articulation joint into a freely articulating state to permit free articulation of the end effector with respect to the control handle dependent upon external forces acting upon the end effector. A method for operating the end effector includes retaining the passive articulation joint in a stable position with an articulation lock and actuating a release of the articulation lock to unlock the passive articulation joint and, thereby, permit articulating motion of the end effector through the passive articulation joint dependent upon the external forces acting upon the end effector.

Abstract: Microfabricated particulate matter (PM) monitors and fractionators within the PM monitors are provided. A primary channel of a vertical or out-of-plane fractionator receives air samples, comprising particles of varying sizes, from the external environment. The air samples then pass through a plurality of microfluidic channels, wherein inertial forces are applied within the microfluidic channels to separate the particles by size. The fractionator comprises a horizontal air outlet for particles having a size below a threshold size and a vertical air outlet for particles having a size above a threshold size. Thus, the proportion of PM in the air sample is reduced prior to deposition on a PM monitor. A virtual cyclone may also be provided that comprises a bend positioned at a flow path through a primary channel of the vertical microfabricated fractionator.

Title: Join pattern agnostic aggregate computation in database query operations
Inventor: TABB LLOYD
IPC: G06F16/245
Filed: 2019-07-05
Abstract: A method of computing a join pattern agnostic aggregate function includes loading source code and parsing the source code to identify different database query operations. In response to the identification of an aggregate function in one of the different database query operations in which records in multiple tables are joined together in a table join, a multiplicity of primary keys are retrieved, each corresponding to a different one of the multiple tables and also an object of one of the tables referenced by the identified aggregate function. An existence of a fan out condition associated with the table join is then computed. On condition that an existence of the fan out condition is not computed a non-fan out sensitive implementation of the aggregate function is invoked with respect to the object. But, otherwise, a different, fan out sensitive implementation of the aggregate function is invoked with respect to the object.
