摘要:
A paint that warns of radiological or chemical substances comprising a paint operatively connected to the surface, an indicator material carried by the paint that provides an indication of the radiological or chemical substances, and a thermo-activation material carried by the paint. In one embodiment, a method of warning of radiological or chemical substances comprising the steps of painting a surface with an indicator material, and monitoring the surface for indications of the radiological or chemical substances. In another embodiment, a paint is operatively connected to a vehicle and an indicator material is carried by the paint that provides an indication of the radiological or chemical substances.
摘要:
An out-of-order execution microprocessor for reducing the likelihood of having to replay a load instruction due to a store collision. The microprocessor includes a queue of entries, each entry configured to hold information that identifies sources of a store instruction used to compute its store address and to hold a dependency that identifies an instruction upon which the store instruction depends for its data. A register alias table (RAT), coupled to the queue of entries, is configured to encounter instructions in program order and to generate dependencies used to determine when the instructions may execute out of program order. In response to encountering a load instruction the RAT determines whether sources of the load instruction used to compute its load address match the sources of the store instruction in an entry of the queue, and if so, causes the load instruction to share the dependency of the matching store instruction.
摘要:
A method of controlling healthcare claim payment losses including accessing information about a claim after a payer is prepared to pay, but prior to payment, applying at least one rule to the information, wherein the at least one rule is adapted to determine indications of fraud and if fraud is indicated, flagging the claim, else recommending payment, wherein flagging of the claim or recommending payment occurs prior to payment. Also, a healthcare claim loss control system including a database having data related to healthcare claims and a loss control engine in communication with the database wherein the loss control engine accesses data corresponding to a healthcare claim when the claim is ready for payment, but before payment of the claim occurs and wherein the claim scoring engine applies at least one rule adapted to identify fraud and flags the claim for any indicated fraud before payment of the claim.
摘要:
A method for controlling healthcare claim payment losses including accessing information about a claim after a payer is prepared to pay, but prior to payment, evaluating the information including at least one of determining indications of fraud, validating service coding and editing as indicated, identifying possible payment discounts, and developing analytics indicative of risk for future claims, and providing loss control recommendations based at least partially on the evaluation, prior to paying the claim. Also a loss control system for healthcare claims with a loss control engine and a database in communication with the loss control engine, wherein the loss control engine accesses information about healthcare claims from the database after the claims have been processed for payment and wherein the loss control engine further analyses the claims for potential cost savings and returns a loss control recommendation for each claim to the database before payment of the respective claim.
摘要:
A method of controlling healthcare claim payment losses including accessing claim information after a payer is prepared to pay the claim, but prior to payment, evaluating the information and developing a score indicative of loss control opportunities and if the score exceeds a threshold, flagging the claim to the payer for loss control opportunities else, recommending payment, wherein flagging of the claim or recommending payment of the claim occurs prior to payment. A healthcare claim loss control system including a database having data related to claims and a scoring engine in communication with the database wherein the scoring engine accesses data corresponding to a claim when the claim is ready for payment, but before payment occurs and wherein the scoring engine evaluates the claim for loss control opportunities and generates at least one score for the claim corresponding to the evaluated loss control opportunities before payment.
摘要:
A plate (10) with spikes (11) projecting therefrom to impale a log on respective opposite sides of a crack (20) in the end of the log and wherein the plate has pull tabs (18, 19) integral therewith and grippingly engageable by a tool (30) used to remove the plate from the end of the log. A tool for inserting and removing the plate from the log includes means (37) for driving and means (33) for removing the plate from the log including a slot (35) adjacent the impact end of the tool and into which the pull tab on the plate is inserted.
摘要:
An out-of-order execution microprocessor for reducing load instruction replay likelihood due to store collisions. A register alias table (RAT) is coupled to first and second queues of entries and generates dependencies used to determine when instructions may execute out of order. The RAT allocates an entry of the first queue and populates the allocated entry with an instruction pointer of a load instruction, when it determines that the load instruction must be replayed. The RAT allocates an entry of the second queue when it encounters a store instruction and populates the allocated entry with a dependency that identifies an instruction upon which the store instruction depends for its data. The RAT causes a subsequent instance of the load instruction to share the dependency when it encounters the subsequent instance of the load instruction and determines that its instruction pointer matches the instruction pointer of an entry of the first queue.
摘要:
An out-of-order execution microprocessor includes a register alias table configured to generate a first indicator that indicates whether an instruction is dependent upon a condition code result of a shift instruction. The microprocessor also includes a first execution unit configured to execute the shift instruction and to generate a second indicator that indicates whether a shift amount of the shift instruction is zero. The microprocessor also includes a second execution unit configured to receive the first and second indicators and to generate a replay signal to cause the instruction to be replayed if the first indicator indicates the instruction is dependent upon the condition code result of the shift instruction and a second indicator indicates the shift amount of the shift instruction is zero.
