Abstract: The invention relates to a method for real-time determination an optimal corrected surface of a first bone and/or a second bone forming together an articulation, the first and/or second bones presenting an overgrowth deformation, said corrected surface providing a greater range of motion of the articulation, the method comprising the following steps: i) constructing from acquired images of the articulation 3D voxel models of the first bone and the second bone; ii) for each of first and second bone voxel models, constructing a coordinate system defined by a center and three axes; iii) applying a motion pattern on the coordinate system of the second bone with respect to the coordinate system of the first bone, a motion pattern being a set of contiguous positions of the first or second bone coordinate systems with respect to the other bone coordinate system, the contiguous positions defining a movement of one bone with respect to the other, wherein said motion pattern is initially loaded from a data base of predefined motion patterns; iv) determining a resection volume from said motion pattern as being the union of interpenetration volumes of the first or second bone voxel model with the other bone voxel model for each position of the motion pattern; v) determining the optimal corrected surface by virtually removing said resection volume from the first and/or the second bone voxel model.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to gaming systems, gaming devices, and methods for presenting tournament games. The gaming system includes a tournament server in communication with a plurality of gaming devices as well as a plurality of tournament displays positioned throughout a gaming establishment. In one embodiment, the gaming devices are configured to enable concurrent play of a base game and an on-demand tournament game in which the on-demand tournament game is player initiated. Alternatively, the base game presented on the gaming devices are reconfigured from a normal mode to a tournament mode. The tournament server manages play of the tournament game, and the tournament server also sends tournament information to the tournament displays near the location of active and eligible players of the tournament game.

Abstract: A progressive game is implemented on a gaming system, wherein the gaming system includes one or more gaming machines connected to a game server, and wherein the progressive game has a progressive prize value that increases according to a progressive prize growth rate. The progressive game includes a selectable targeted progressive prize value, a selectable targeted progressive prize time, and one or more enticement factors. The progressive prize growth rate is calculated using the selectable targeted progressive prize value, the selectable targeted progressive prize time, and the one or more enticement factors. Additionally, a random number generation algorithm tests to determine if there is a progressive prize win at each predetermined time period. The selectable targeted progressive prize time is used to calculate the predetermined time period for testing for a progressive prize win.
