Inventor: BRATLIE MARTE
IPC: A61B17/30
Filed: 2013-04-19
Abstract: A tool 10 has a main body with at least two gripping interfaces defining a channel for pinching a persons skin. The interfaces are to engage with a subcutaneous implant such as a contraceptive implant or a microchip and fix its location relative to the engaged skin. The tool may be a partial cylinder with a slider as in figures 1b and 9, or it may be a frame 11 with a pair of forwardly extending arms 13 defining the channel. On each arm are mounted three inclined wheels 18, the front pair being nearly vertical and the rear pair being sub-horizontal. The middle wheels may be contoured (in a petal pattern) for better grip. The rear pair of wheels may be rotated to be fully horizontal by depression of a lever 50.

IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2013-09-04
Abstract: A method for validating data changes made to a database, the changes are made in the context of a transaction, and validation is performed using a rules database storing a plurality of rules. The method includes identifying a set of data entities affected by one or more data changes made in the context of the transaction. In response to an instruction to commit the transaction, data entities in the set of affected data entities are validated using rules from the rules database. The transaction is committed in dependence on the outcome of the validation. The data changes may be performed in response to calls from an application, the validating step comprising invoking a validation callback registered by the application, preferably wherein the validation callback is arranged to invoke a rule-based validation engine to validate one or more data entities based on rules in the rule database. In an alternative embodiment the method includes dealing with a dataset version which specifies differences between itself and a parent dataset version from which the dataset version is derived.

Inventor: PEARL ANNIE
IPC: G06F21/62
Filed: 2013-07-18
Abstract: Accidental data loss prevention (DLP) in cloud platforms, such as enterprise collaboration workspaces. A first version 1105 of original document 1101 is received for upload to the platform from first user 1102. It is determined (1108) that DLP rules are triggered by contents of the file. Based on upload time (1107) for a second version 1106 of original document 1101 by second user 1103, it is determined whether to perform branching (1110) by committing quarantined copy 1111 of first file 1105. Responsive actions 1112 are performed. Branching separate storage of a quarantined 1105 version reconciles quarantined drafts with collaborator revisions. Rules are triggered after character-based searching of sensitive or confidential information, e.g. financial information or account numbers. Responsive actions comprise quarantine, notifying administrators, file locking, suppressing user notifications, emailing alerts. Also disclosed is an automation interface for configuring and creating policies to prevent disclosure of sensitive information in collaboration processes.

Inventor: YELIN DVIR
IPC: G01N21/47
Filed: 2014-07-31
Abstract: A system for performing spectral imaging of a target sample comprises a broadband illumination source, optically manipulated such that it produces a generally collimated beam; a spectrally dispersing element, such as a diffraction grating, aligned such that the beam is spectrally spread along the target sample in a first (x) direction; a focussing element such as a cylindrical lens disposed and oriented such that the spectrally dispersed beam is focused onto the target sample only in the first (x) direction, such that the dispersed beam illuminates a two-dimensional area of the target sample; and a two-dimensional imaging array disposed such that it captures two dimensional images of the target sample as the illumination beam is scanned relative to the sample in the first (x) direction. A spectral cube may be assembled incorporating the spectral data for each imaged location. The illumination of a two-dimensional area enables the use of a higher intensity illumination source than with spectrally encoded serial imaging as well as faster scans and a higher signal to noise ratio.

Title: Analysing effects of programs on mobile devices
Inventor: ANTON JAKOB FLUGGE
IPC: G06F11/30
Filed: 2015-08-24
Abstract: Each device D1-Dm has monitoring software which monitors battery usage at frequent intervals throughout the day. The monitoring software calculates the average battery discharge and at less frequent intervals, such as once a day, communicates remotely to a server 105 the details of which applications are installed on the device and the details of the state of the battery. Aggregating data from many devices, the server estimates the effect of each application on battery usage. The estimated effects of the applications are updated each time that a further report is received, by revising the existing estimate. Greater weight may be given to new data if the effect on battery usage has been consistently over - or under - estimated. It is not necessary to determine whether a particular application has been used. The effect of all applications installed on a device is taken into account jointly. The effect on properties other than battery usage can be determined using this method.
