20090268848Systems and Methods for Filter Based Media Defect Detection - Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for media defect detection. For example, a data receiving system is disclosed that includes a data signal provided from a medium that may include a defective portion. An absolute value circuit receives the data signal and provides an output corresponding to an absolute value of the data signal. The output corresponding to the absolute value of the data signal is input to a filter that filters it and provides a filtered output. In some cases, the filter is a digital filter operable to integrate the absolute value of the data signal. A comparator receives the output from the filter and compares it with a threshold value. The result of the comparison indicates a defect status of the medium.10-29-2009

20100274637PREDICTION OF THRESHOLD EXCEPTIONS BASED ON REAL TIME OPERATING INFORMATION - A contact center includes a real time threshold prediction module that determines that a selected performance measure will, during a future time interval, likely cross a selected threshold and, in response, performs at least one of the following operations: (i) determines, for the likely crossing of the selected threshold, a consequence in a selected service level agreement and determines a set of corrective actions to reduce a likelihood that the selected performance measure will cross the selected threshold.10-28-2010
20100322406Servicing Calls in Call Centers Based On Estimated Call Value - Methods for enabling call center agents to adapt their servicing of incoming calls based on the estimated value of the calls are disclosed. In accordance with the first illustrative embodiment, when there is a “high-value” call waiting in the queue while one or more agents are currently servicing lower-value calls, an agent who is servicing a lower-value call is informed that there is a higher-value call waiting in the queue, and is prompted to provide an estimate of how much longer he or she will be servicing his or her current call. The call center system selects which agent the high-value call will be routed to based on: (i) the agents' responses to the prompts, and (ii) for each of the responding agents, a measure of how closely prior responses from the agent compared to the actual amount of time taken by the agent to complete servicing the call.12-23-2010
20100322408Data Store for Assessing Accuracy of Call Center Agent Service Time Estimates - A data store (e.g., a relational database, an object-oriented database, an unstructured file system, an in-memory data structure, etc.) and associated methods are disclosed for predicting the accuracy of agent responses in a call center. In accordance with the illustrative embodiment, agents in a call center are prompted at different times during their workday for estimates of how much longer they will be servicing their current call, and the estimates are stored in the data store along with the actual times required for completion of the call. Statistics for each agent's prediction accuracy are computed and stored in the data store along with the raw data, and can then be used to assess the accuracy of subsequent agent responses to queries.12-23-2010

20100303764Sweet Whey Based Biopesticide Composition - A biopesticide composition for pest management that includes a sweet whey product and spores mixed with a carrier to form a growing environment in a target region. The growing environment forms a micro-factory that is suitable for spore growth, such that the number of spores substantially increases from a first spore concentration prior to application to the target region to a second spore concentration after a period of time. The biopesticide composition may include other additives that modify the micro-factory in a manner that facilitates spore growth and/or increases the probability that a target pest, e.g., an insect, will come into contact with the spores.12-02-2010

20120204040AUTHENTICATING FERROELECTRIC RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY (F-RAM) DEVICE AND METHOD - An F-RAM authenticating memory device and method providing secure mutual authentication between a Host system and a memory in order to gain read/write access to the F-RAM user memory contents. The device and technique of the present invention uses an Advanced Encryption Standard AES128 encryption module in conjunction with a true hardware random number generator and basic exclusive OR (XOR) functions in order to achieve a secure algorithm with a relatively small amount of processing. Due to inherently faster write times than that of conventional floating gate non-volatile memory technologies, the use of F-RAM significantly reduces the time available to interfere with a critical security parameter (CSP) update. Moreover, unlike floating gate technologies, F-RAM's read vs. write current signature is balanced making it less prone to side channel attacks while also providing relatively faster erase times.08-09-2012

20120310060METHOD OF ANALYZING PHOTON DENSITY WAVES IN A MEDICAL MONITOR - A monitoring system may include an emission feature capable of emitting light into tissue, a modulator capable of modulating the emitter at a modulation frequency, e.g., in a range of about 10 MHz to 3.0 GHz, to generate resolvable photon density waves, a detection feature capable of detecting photons of the photon density waves after passage through the tissue, and a processor capable of using phase and amplitude differences of the photon density wave signal relative to a reference to determine one or more physiological parameters. The phase and amplitude differences may be much lower frequency that the modulation rate. Accordingly, these differences may be masked by signal artifacts. Provided herein are signal conditioning techniques that may improve the signal to noise ratio of photon density wave signals and yield a more robust phase and amplitude signal.12-06-2012
