20080207349 | Iron-Type Golf Clubs - A set of iron-type golf clubs includes long irons with channel back configurations and short irons with cavity back configurations. The rear face configurations transition from channel backs through to pure cavity backs for increased performance continuum for the set. Additional design parameters for the set may also be systematically varied through the set, such as groove type and depth, loft angle, cavity volume, hitting face roughness, and sole width. At least one of the clubs of the set includes a sandwich-type construction for the hitting face having a dampening element disposed between a hitting face insert and a lightweight reinforcing core. In one embodiment, at least one club head is oversized. | 08-28-2008 |
20090082130 | SPIN MILLED GROOVES FOR A GOLF CLUB - The present invention is directed to a golf club head with an improved striking surface. The grooves are machined into the strike surface with tight tolerances. The grooves have sharp edges, radiused ends, and a draft angle between about 2° and 12°. The striking face is machined such that it has a uniform texture with a roughness of more than 40 Ra. | 03-26-2009 |
20090275421 | IRON-TYPE GOLF CLUBS - A set of iron-type golf clubs includes long, mid- and short irons with channel back configurations and a mass control insert. The mass of the insert is systematically varied through the set such that the mass distribution properties of the set may be systematically varied while retaining a continuous look and feel through the set. The mass of the insert is varied by altering the volume or the density of the insert through the set. Additional design parameters for the set may also be systematically varied through the set, such as groove type and depth, loft angle, cavity volume, hitting face roughness, and sole width. In one embodiment, the mass control insert comprises a dense insert and a lightweight cover. The density of the dense insert can be easily varied to change the mass distribution properties of the club head. One application of the mass control insert is to provide customization of the club head at the point of sale or distribution. | 11-05-2009 |

20130117806 | NETWORK BASED PROVISIONING - The subject disclosure generally relates to provisioning devices via a network service, such as a cloud service. A profile component can authenticate a user of a device with a cloud service, and determine services maintained by the network service that are associated with the user. A reception component can receive a request for a set of services from the device, and a services component can obtain the set of services from the network service, and provision the device based on the set of services. Provisioning the device can include downloading the services to the device, or including the services in a virtual machine executing in the network service. | 05-09-2013 |
20130145027 | REGULATORY COMPLIANCE ACROSS DIVERSE ENTITIES - Regulatory compliance techniques are provided for dynamically modifying access to data based on the jurisdiction a user seeking access to the data is located within. Dynamically modifying access to data provides for a more efficient and accurate solution to regulatory compliance issues faced when hosting data in a central repository. Users can be notified when their access to data is modified due to a compliance issue. In addition, an audit history can be associated with data packets that allow an administrator or the like to view the history of data packet access. Finally, signatures associated with a data packet can be used to search data store(s) to track access to information within the data packet that may have been subsequently modified. | 06-06-2013 |
20130159500 | DISCOVERY AND MINING OF PERFORMANCE INFORMATION OF A DEVICE FOR ANTICIPATORILY SENDING UPDATES TO THE DEVICE - The subject disclosure relates to techniques for monitoring contextual and performance information of a device for anticipatorily sending update information to the device. An interface component can receive, from the client, contextual information indicating an operating environment of the client and performance information that is associated with one or more operations being performed by the client based on the operating environment, and send, based on correlation information, update information to the client. Further, a service component can to infer a relationship between the contextual information and the performance information to obtain the correlation information. In other embodiments, a client can populate a cache with portion(s) of the contextual information to obtain cached information, and send at least a portion of the cached information to a system including one or more aspects of the service component. | 06-20-2013 |

20120245948 | GAUGING RESOURCE INTENSIVENESS OF PROVIDING CARE TO A PATIENT - Subject matter described herein is related to estimating a quantity of resources that are consumed or expended when providing care to a patient. When estimating the quantity, non-clinical information might be used to draw various inferences. For example, information provided by a real-time location system might provide insight (e.g., duration, frequency, etc.) into instances in which a healthcare clinician visits a patient's room. In another example, information provided by a medical-device alarm system might provide insight into alarms that are triggered by equipment that monitors and/or provides assistance to a patient. | 09-27-2012 |
20120253836 | FACILITATING AND TRACKING CLINICIAN-ASSIGNMENT STATUS - Subject matter described herein is related to assigning a healthcare clinician to provide care to a patient. For example, a GUI is provided that includes contextual information relevant to the assignment and that allows a user to electronically create the assignment. Relevant information includes a list of clinicians, a list of patients, and an estimate of the amount of resources required to provide care to a patient. In addition, this disclosure describes tracking the status of a healthcare clinician, such as primary provider, secondary provider, and on-break. Status might be tracked by capturing an image of a display board, which supports clinician barcodes that are movable to desired locations within a depiction of a healthcare facility (e.g., floor plan laid out using barcodes). | 10-04-2012 |
