20050060211, Mar 17, 2005

Filed:

Aug 26, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/926665

Inventors:

Yan Xiao - Gambrills MD, US
Fu Hu - Ellicott City MD, US

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705006000

Abstract:

Techniques for delivering data for coordinating multiple party use of a facility include producing conditions data by measuring without human intervention current condition of a facility that is used by multiple human parties. Availability data that indicates present or future availability for the facility is generated based at least in part on the conditions data. Coordination data based at least in part on the availability data is presented for the parties. These techniques allow rapid dynamic adaptation to changing status of a high-value facility while being less reliant on varied and subjective human motivations for reporting status changes. Undue exposure of sensitive information can be avoided by deriving less detailed views from high-resolution images of the facility and its users. Coordination data can be projected directly onto, and manual input can be derived from, a magnetic white board currently used for coordination at many facilities.

International Classification:

H01S 3/00
H01S 3/0941

US Classification:

372 3801, 372 75

Abstract:

The present invention provides a method of fabricating a beam formatting diode laser using a surface-emitting distributed feedback (SE-DFB) laser array (SELA), instead of edge-emitting diodes that provides a brighter diode and results in simple and few optical components to reduce the complexity and cost of solid-state laser pump modules and direct-diode applications.

US Classification:

715744

Abstract:

Techniques for presenting patient data at the patient's bedside include receiving predetermined presentation style data that indicates a subset of fewer than all parameters available from an electronic medical records (EMR) system and a first arrangement on a display device of related parameters in the subset. Without human intervention, the most recent values from the EMR system are received. The most recent values are associated in the EMR system with the particular patient for corresponding parameters of the subset. A first most recent value is presented according to the first arrangement at the particular bedside display device without human intervention. In some embodiments, the most recent values are also received or presented in response to a single stroke from a human user at an input for the particular display device.
