| 20090313275 | COMPRESS TRANSACTION DATA USING SERIAL MICRO-TRENDS - Compressing transaction data is provided. A current transaction data point is received. A determination is made as to whether the current transaction data point is a first transaction data point or a subsequent transaction data point of a set of transaction data points for a current variable length aggregation record. A further determination is made as to whether the subsequent transaction data point is within a predetermined tolerance of a predicted transaction data point in response to the current transaction data point being the subsequent transaction data point. The subsequent transaction data point is compressed into the current variable length aggregation record in response to the subsequent transaction data point falling within the predetermined tolerance of the predicted transaction data point. | 12-17-2009 |

| 20090106361 | Identification of Root Cause for a Transaction Response Time Problem in a Distributed Environment - Method and apparatus for identifying a cause for a response time problem for a transaction in a distributed computing system that includes a central server and a plurality of subsystems. Data is stored at each subsystem relating to sub-transactions of transactions performed by the subsystems. When a problem is discovered in connection with the completion of a particular transaction, each subsystem of the plurality of subsystems that was involved in the particular transaction is identified, and both instance data relating to all of the sub-transactions of the particular transaction stored at each identified subsystem and current hourly aggregate data stored at each identified subsystem is forwarded to the central server. Root-Cause Analysis is then performed using the forwarded instance data and aggregate data to identify the particular subsystem that caused the transaction problem. | 04-23-2009 |

| 20090256483 | Load Control Device Having a Visual Indication of an Energy Savings Mode - A load control system (e.g., a dimmer switch) operates in a normal mode of operation and an energy-saver mode and displays a visual indication when the system is operating in the energy-saver mode. The system comprises a controllably conductive device adapted to be coupled in series between a power source and a lighting load, a control circuit operatively coupled to the controllably conductive device for adjusting the intensity of the lighting load, and a visual indicator for providing the visual indication that the system is in the energy-saver mode of operation. The control circuit controls the intensity of the lighting load between a minimum intensity and a first maximum intensity when the system is in the normal mode of operation, and between the minimum intensity and a second maximum intensity less than the first maximum intensity when the system is in the energy-saver mode. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20110068769 | Dimmer Switch With Adjustable High-End Trim - A dimmer switch has a user adjustable high-end trim. The dimmer switch includes a bidirectional semiconductor switch, such as a triac, for controlling the amount of power delivered from a source of alternating current power to a lighting load, such as an electric lamp. A user-adjustable timing circuit controls the conduction time of the triac from a minimum time to a maximum time. The maximum possible conduction time of the triac is the high-end trim. The minimum possible conduction time of the triac is the low-end trim. The timing circuit includes a user-accessible switch that allows a user to reduce the high-end trim from a first nominal level to a second reduced level, lower than the first level, without substantially affecting the low-end trim. The switch allows a user to switch a transient voltage suppressor into and out of parallel connection with a resistor that is part of an RC timing circuit for the triac. The dimmer switch advantageously uses less energy and the lifetime of the lamp is extended when the second reduced level of the high-end trim is selected. | 03-24-2011 |

| 20090105602 | Staged life-threatening arrhythmia detection algorithm for minimizing power consumption - A two-stage digital algorithm uses a highly sensitive low power digital first stage to detect one or more alarm conditions, and one or more complex digital subsequent stages that identify the detected alarm condition with more specificity. The one or more complex digital subsequent stages are not activated, and consume no power, until an alarm condition is sensed by the low power consumption digital first stage. Given that the second stage will process the data more rigorously, the low power first stage can be set to be more sensitive and generate what would otherwise be excessive alarms, which are ultimately filtered out by the subsequent stages. By staging the digital analysis algorithms, the present invention achieves high sensitivity for alarm conditions with low computational throughput and low power consumption, and achieves high specificity with more computationally intensive algorithms that only run occasionally. | 04-23-2009 |

Conductive traces formed on the lower surface of the tab extend to contact pads. A nonconductive layer is printed over the traces and can have a shield formed thereon. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20110112418 | ECG MONITORING SYSTEM WITH CONFIGURABLE ALARM LIMITS - 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 analyzes the received ECG signals for pre-defined arrhythmia. If an arrhythmia is detected, a wireless transceiver in the ECG monitor transmits the event information and an ECG strip to a monitoring center. At the commencement of a monitoring procedure a message is sent to the monitoring center and configuration information for arrhythmia detection is down-loaded and installed in the monitor. The configuration file is determined by a screen of selectable standard and custom arrhythmias and alarm limits at the monitoring center. | 05-12-2011 |
