Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods employ an implant that is sized and configured to attach to the annulus of a dysfunctional heart valve annulus. In use, the implant extends across the major axis of the annulus above and/or along the valve annulus. The implant reshapes the major axis dimension and/or other surrounding anatomic structures. The implant restores to the heart valve annulus and leaflets a more functional anatomic shape and tension. The more functional anatomic shape and tension are conducive to coaptation of the leaflets during systole, which, in turn, reduces regurgitation. The implant improves function to the valve, without surgically cinching, resecting, and/or fixing in position large portions of a dilated annulus, or without the surgical fixation of ring-like structures.

Abstract: A  "Burst Ratio " is defined for use as a measure of the burstiness of a packet-based
network. One illustrative implementation of the  Burst Ratio (R)  is where  R  is
equal to the ratio of the average length of observed bursts in a packet arrival sequence
over the average length of bursts expected for a random loss packet-based network.
Another illustrative implementation of the  Burst Ratio (R)  is in the context of a 2-state
Markov model, wherein  R  =  1  /  (1+ α  -  β) , and α is the probability of losing packet  n 
if packet  n-1  was found (i.e., the probability of losing the next packet if the current
packet was received) and β represents the probability of losing packet  n  if packet  n-1 
was lost (i.e., the probability of losing the next packet if the current packet was lost).

Abstract: One may use econometric techniques to quantify the marketing drivers of consumer demand, retail-load adjustments, and shipments. A customized software tool may analyze the impact of marketing activities on future sales by forecasting consumer demand and retail-load adjustments for a product or service, based upon past results. Dynamic regression other econometric modeling techniques may be applied to historical marketing spend or sales data to calculate the quantifiable impact of each marketing element on consumer demand and retail load adjustments. Future marketing spending by product and marketing element may be used to perform what-if analysis and determine impacts of marketing spending on forecasted consumer demand and the shipments needed to fulfill consumer demand combined with anticipated retail-load adjustments. Actual consumer demand and shipments may be tracked to highlight and assess forecast errors. Reports for demand forecast errors and shipment forecast error may be generated, with potential error reasons logged.
