Abstract:
Some embodiments may include a poker indexing service. For example, a multi dimensional vector of player performance and/or other data may be determined based on gaming related activity that is input or otherwise captured. Such a vector may be used in various forms to generate a metric or to facilitate wagering and/or other gaming activity. Other methods and apparatus are described.
Abstract:
A method of forming a metal-containing film by atomic layer deposition is provided herein. The method comprises using (a) at least one metal fluorinated β-diketonate precursor; and (b) a co-reagent comprising at least one optionally-substituted hydrazine.
Abstract:
A method of non-invasively measuring the presence, absence, or concentration of one or more analytes in a tissue of a subject includes exposing at least a portion of a tissue of the subject to electromagnetic radiation; obtaining electromagnetic radiation measurement data of electromagnetic radiation from the tissue; using a mathematical transformation to filter or smooth the electromagnetic radiation measurement data; and determining the presence, absence, or concentration of one or more analytes by determining a radiation signature of the filtered or smoothed electromagnetic radiation measurement data; correlating the radiation signature of the filtered or smoothed electromagnetic radiation measurement data with the presence, absence, or concentration of one or more analytes to determine the presence, absence, or concentration of one or more analytes in the subject.
Abstract:
In one aspect, a grate segment for a burner, comprises a substantially rigid body (30) having a dispersed array of cavities (38) filled with a refractory material. In another aspect, a solid fuel gasifier includes a housing (12) defining a gasifier chamber (14), and a solid fuel inlet (21), grate structure (22, 24) in the gasifier chamber. The grate structure includes base means, a plurality of agitator segments (32) positioned relative to the base means for reciprocating movement to agitate a fuel load in the gasifier, and means to support the base means and the agitator segments so that the latter reciprocate in a direction at a substantial inclination to both horizontal and vertical. In use of the gasifier a deep burden of fuel accumulates on the grate structure and the outward stroke of the reciprocation of the agitator elements is in the overall direction of flow of the fuel burden or generally oppositely thereto.
Abstract:
A computer system for intrusion detection includes a production processor and a security processor. The production processor is configured to execute one or more production processes. The security processor is dedicated to security functions and is configured to execute one or more security processes. The security process is configured to monitor the functions of the production processor and determine the occurrence of a security event. The security event may include any action performed by the production process that is considered to be threat to the security of the computer system. In some embodiments, the security process is associated with a particular production process and is configured to utilize information concerning the expected behavior of the production process while monitoring for security events.
Abstract:
A removable cover assembly for a refuse container has a frame with pivotable plastic covers and retractable hoisting pins, which can be utilized using the same hoisting apparatus as is used for the refuse container.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for the provision of data for transmission and/or storage, the transmission and storage of data, and, more particularly, to data coding for transmission and/or storage and to decoding of received and/or accessed or retrieved coded data. In an embodiment of the invention, data is assembled into coded data structures comprising a plurality of fields that, e.g., may contain actual or implied field values, and data associated therewith that relates to the plurality of fields. Encoding and decoding of the data may take place with reference to one or more associated data models, and a coded data structure according to this embodiment may contain content only (field values and data identifying the structure). This allows for a reduction in size of the data structure as compared to, e.g., a data structure comprising program code or all data needed to describe the data in the data structure.
Abstract:
A method of non-invasively measuring the presence, absence, or concentration of one or more analytes in a tissue of a subject includes exposing at least a portion of a tissue of the subject to electromagnetic radiation; obtaining a measurement of electromagnetic radiation from the tissue; and determining the presence, absence, or concentration of one or more analytes by determining a radiation signature of the electromagnetic radiation; correlating the radiation signature of the electromagnetic radiation with at least one of concentration, presence, and absence of one or more analytes by utilizing a mathematic transformation such as a transformation based on a 1st or higher derivative of the measurement to determine the presence, absence, or concentration of one or more analytes in the subject.
