The disclosure generally relates to knowledge retrieval using a knowledgebase storing general and/or expert knowledge. In particular, the disclosure relates to using complex retrieval techniques to implement an enhanced troubleshooting system that provides relevant information. Aspects of the disclosure retrieve relevant documents to assist in troubleshooting by reasoning with stored representations about the faulty system and its operating environment. After receiving a description of the symptoms and/or other information related to the problem, the system may recommend textual and/or non-textual documents with relevant information for identifying the cause of the problem and restoring operation.

摘要:
A flexible member (114) for supporting a glove in a manner whereby it can be readily donned by a user without touching the exterior of the glove. The flexible member (114) having a substantially planar glove support portion (122) which, when viewed in plan, conforms to the shape of at least part of the interior of a glove and is fittable, in use, to the interior of a glove through the cuff aperture thereof, and an attachment portion (112) by which the flexible member (114) can be held to facilitate donning of a glove and the subsequent removal of the glove support portion (122) from the cuff aperture of a glove while the glove is worn by a user. The glove support portion (122) is of sufficient flexibility to deflect around the hand of a user as said hand is inserted into a glove supported by the glove support portion (122), and further to deflect around the wrist of a user as the glove support portion (122) is removed from the glove through the cuff aperture thereof.

A method for providing passenger accountability for airports and other mass transit facilities is disclosed. In operation, a check-in agent receives information identifying a passenger seeking to board a commercial carrier. The passenger is designated as checked-in, and then the present system may use a frequent flyer card or a boarding pass to monitor a location of the checked-in passenger prior to boarding the commercial carrier.

A safety element retention system having a reel upon which a safety element or strap may be wound, a spring return mechanism, for rewinding the reel and retrieving the safety strap, and further having at least one locking plate, connected integrally with the reel, with a locking hook associated with the reel, a ramp adjacent the hook, a locking dog adjacent to the hook and being swingable about a pivot axis, a damping device connected to said dog for slowing down movement a spring biassing the dog into a predetermined first position, and, a ramp follower member to contact the ramp on the locking plate, and cause the dog to move against the biassing force of the spring, into engagement with a hook on the locking plate, the biassing force of the spring causing swinging of the dog in the reverse direction, during normal operation, to remove the dog out from the path of the hook.
摘要:
Formulations marketed to elderly consumers for preventing or treating age-related eye diseases such as macular degeneration are modified in various four ways, compared to the formulations tested in the first “Age-Related Eye Disease Study” (AREDS-1) clinical trial. Zinc dosages are substabtially reduced, to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease and other neurotoxic damage in the brains of elderly people, and zeaxanthin is substituted for a substantial portion of any beta-carotene. Additional useful agents are also disclosed.
摘要:
Delivery of energy by a defibrillator or other medical device is inhibited when the processor or software that controls a module of the medical device operates abnormally. A windowed watchdog timer (WWDT) incorporated into one module of the medical device is used to control the operation of other modules of the medical device via a software-based extension technique. As a result, the risk of harm to the patient is reduced compared to medical devices that incorporate over-limit type watchdog timers. In addition, costs associated with implementing WDTs in multiple modules of the defibrillator are avoided, thereby lowering the overall cost of implementation.
摘要:
An NMDA antagonist (such as ketamine) is administered with a safener (such as clonidine) in patients suffering from neurologic disorders other than pain. The ketamine is adminsitered at a dosage that causes slurred speech, for a span of several days. This treatment enables a patient's nervous system to return to a healthy “set point”, also called an improved stable neural homeostasis, in a manner similar to a broken bone healing itself if protected from jostling and reinjury by a cast. In at least some patients, this treatment can ease problems such as addictions to illegal or pain-killing drugs, nicotine, or alcohol, compulsive or criminal behavioral problems, severe depression, obsessive-compulsive disorders, phobias, etc. It may also provide some relief in some patients for problems such as chronic fatigue, chemical sensitivities, allergies, autoimmune disorders, and diabetes.
