Abstract:
A method and control system for controlling an engine in a vehicle includes broadcasting a control signal including instructions for modification of a vehicle parameter to the vehicle during operation of the engine.
Abstract:
A method for enhancing an immune response in a vertebrate subject is described. The method includes providing at least one energy stimulus configured to modulate one or more nervous system components of the vertebrate subject, and administering one or more immunogen to the vertebrate subject, wherein the at least one energy stimulus and the one or more immunogen are provided in a combination and in a temporal sequence sufficient to enhance an immune response in the vertebrate subject.
Abstract:
A computer program product includes a recordable-type signal bearing medium bearing computer usable code configured for causing an automatic evaluation, remotely from a health care facility, of a biological sample acquired from a subject for a presence or an absence of at least one pathogen in the biological sample; computer usable code configured for electronically queuing a first result of the evaluation for transmission to an off-site entity; and computer usable code configured for receiving a notification of a benefit for the subject after queuing the first result of the evaluation for transmission.
Abstract:
A system or device includes an evaluation module for automatically evaluating, remotely from a health care facility, a biological sample acquired from a subject for a presence or an absence of at least one pathogen in the biological sample; an electronic memory for queuing a first result of the evaluation for transmission to an off-site entity; and a reporting module for reporting a second result of the evaluation to the subject after queuing the first result of the evaluation for transmission.
Abstract:
Configuration technologies for apportioning resources and communicating indications of potential or actual incentives based on one or more measurements or other objective indications that therapeutic components have been administered to an individual, other attributes of the therapeutic components or the individual, or other such determinants. Techniques for apportioning resources cost-effectively (between providers and other parties, e.g.) and for facilitating or handling implementations thereof or output therefrom.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, a multi-layer insulation (MLI) composite material includes a first thermally-reflective layer and a second thermally-reflective layer spaced from the first thermally-reflective layer. At least one of the first or second thermally-reflective layers includes bandgap material that is reflective to infrared electromagnetic radiation. A region between the first and second thermally-reflective layers impedes heat conduction between the first and second thermally-reflective layers. Other embodiments include a storage container including a container structure that may be at least partially formed from such MLI composite materials, and methods of using such MLI composite materials.
Abstract:
A multilayer material is described herein that includes at least one signaling layer configured to propagate at least one electromagnetic signal; and a flexible layer configured to enclose the at least one signaling layer, wherein the flexible layer is substantially impermeable to an environment and to the at least one electromagnetic signal. The multilayer material including the at least one signaling layer is configured to transmit a change in the at least one electromagnetic signal upon exposure of the signaling layer to the environment. A system, an article of clothing, or a method is described herein.
