| 20110021937 | WATERTIGHT CARDIAC MONITORING SYSTEM - An ECG monitoring system for ambulatory patients includes a small multi-electrode patch that adhesively attaches to the chest of a patient. A reusable battery-powered ECG monitor clips onto the patch and receives patient electrical signals from the electrodes of the patch. A processor continuously processes received ECG signals and stores the signals in memory in the monitor. Processed ECG signals and cardiac event information are sent wirelessly to a cellphone handset for relay to a monitoring center. The ECG monitor is contained in a watertight sealed case with only electrical contacts on the outside of the case. The electrical contacts electrically couple the ECG monitor to the electrodes of the patch during patient monitoring and to a charger during recharge of the battery. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110208076 | ECG MONITORING SYTSTEM WITH DOCKING STATION - An ECG monitoring system for ambulatory patients includes a battery-powered ECG monitor which attaches to a patient to receive patient electrical signals. A processor continuously processes received ECG signals and stores the signals in memory in the monitor. A wireless transceiver in the ECG monitor transmits the processed ECG signals to a cellphone handset. The battery of the monitor is recharged when the monitor is properly positioned in a charging dock, during which time the ECG signals are sent to the cellphone handset. Preferably the cellphone handset is recharged by the charging dock at the same time. At the conclusion of recharging and data transfer the monitor performs a self-test. A light on the charging dock is illuminated if any of the operations performed while the monitor is docked is unsuccessful. | 08-25-2011 |

| 20100077310 | FLEXIBLE ARCHITECTURE FOR NOTIFYING APPLICATIONS OF STATE CHANGES - Described is a method and system a unified mechanism for storing device, application, and service state, as well as a rich notification brokerage architecture. Clients register with a notification broker to receive notifications for changes to state properties. When a registered state property changes, a notification broker determines which clients to notify of the state change and provides the client with a notification regarding the change. Clients may be notified whenever a state changes, when a state change meets a predetermined condition, or based on a schedule. An application may also be launched in response to a state change. An application programming interface (API) is provided that provides a unified way of accessing state change information across different components within the device. | 03-25-2010 |

| 20110252483 | Reputation-Based Authorization Decisions - This document describes tools capable of receiving reputation metadata effective to enable better decision making about whether or not to authorize operations. The tools may build a reputation value from this reputation metadata and, based on this value and an authorization rule, better decide whether or not to authorize an operation requested by some program, application, or other actor. | 10-13-2011 |

| 20100081178 | MODIFIED PHOTOSYNTHETIC MICROORGANISMS FOR PRODUCING TRIGLYCERIDES - This disclosure describes genetically modified photosynthetic microorganisms, including Cyanobacteria, that contain one or more exogenous genes encoding a diacylglycerol acyltransferase, a phosphatidate phosphatase, and/or an acetyl-CoA carboxylase, and which are capable of producing increased amounts of fatty acids and/or synthesizing triglycerides. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100184169 | Modified Photosynthetic Microorganisms With Reduced Glycogen and Their Use in Producing Carbon-Based Products - This disclosure describes genetically modified photosynthetic microorganisms, including Cyanobacteria, that contain one or more mutations or deletions in a glycogen biosynthesis or storage pathway, which accumulate a reduced amount of glycogen as compared to a wild type | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100255551 | MODIFIED PHOTOSYNTHETIC MICROORGANISMS FOR PRODUCING TRIGLYCERIDES - This disclosure describes genetically modified photosynthetic microorganisms, including Cyanobacteria, that contain one or more exogenous genes encoding a diacylglycerol acyltransferase, a phosphatidate phosphatase, and/or an acetyl-CoA carboxylase, and which are capable of producing increased amounts of fatty acids and/or synthesizing triglycerides. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20110250659 | MODIFIED PHOTOSYNTHETIC MICROORGANISMS FOR PRODUCING LIPIDS - This disclosure describes genetically modified photosynthetic microorganisms, e.g., Cyanobacteria, that contain one or more exogenous genes encoding a phospholipase and/or thioesterase, which are capable of producing an increased amount of lipids and/or fatty acids. This disclosure also describes genetically modified photosynthetic microorganisms that contain one or more exogenous genes encoding a diacyglycerol acyltransferase, a phosphatidate phosphatase, and/or an acetyl-CoA carboxylase, which are capable of producing increased amounts of fatty acids and/or synthesizing triglycerides, as well as photosynthetic microorganism comprising mutations or deletions in a glycogen biosynthesis or storage pathway, which accumulate a reduced amount of glycogen under reduced nitrogen conditions as compared to a wild type photosynthetic microorganism. | 10-13-2011 |

| 20090326928 | Audio Stream Notification and Processing - Various embodiments provide techniques for allowing an application to opt out of system default audio stream behavior, as well as techniques for notifying applications on a computing device that a communication audio stream has been initiated. The techniques may differentiate between communication-related audio streams and audio streams that are not communication-related. In some embodiments, an application may register to receive notification that a communication stream has been initiated. The application may be configured to comply with system default audio stream handling policies, or it can perform custom behavior in response to the audio stream notification. In some embodiments, an application may register for filtered or unfiltered notification. In a filtered notification scenario, an application is notified that a communication stream has been initiated when an audio stream associated with the application has not already been modified in response to the initiation of a different communication stream. In an unfiltered notification scenario, an application/process is notified whenever a communication stream is been initiated. | 12-31-2009 |
