International Classification:

C12Q 1/68
G06F 19/00

US Classification:

435006000, 435007100, 702019000, 702020000

Abstract:

Methods of using biological sequence data. Evolved biological sequences may be used to identify the defining biological characteristics of the sequences—the three-dimensional structure and biochemical function. Some of the present methods extract such information, use such information to predict functional mechanism, and/or use such information in the design of artificial biological sequences. Other methods are included, as are related computer readable media and computer systems.

International Classification:

E02D 29/14
E01C 5/00

US Classification:

404 25, 404 73

Abstract:

A supplemental access cover is adapted to cover an access cover. The supplemental access cover includes a layer of material having a thickness in the range of 0.01 inch to 1.5 inches, and an apparatus for attaching the layer of material to the access cover. A method for paving uses the supplemental access cover. The method includes locating an access cover within an area to be paved, attaching a supplemental cover to the access cover, and paving over the access cover and the supplemental cover. The method for paving also includes relocating the access cover, and removing the supplemental cover from the access cover.

International Classification:

F41J 5/24

US Classification:

273383

Abstract:

A remotely-perceptible, impact-indicating target for a projectile, such as a bullet or the like, constructed so as to remotely perceptibly indicate and annunciate very realistically, to a target shooter at a projectile shooting location, the impact of a shot or fired projectile or bullet on a remotely located target in a manner clearly visibly perceptibly indicating not only the hit, but the impact location of the projectile or bullet on the target, by causing the effective expansion in an explosion-simulating manner of a quantity of visibly perceptible target material.

Assignee:

LOCKHEED MARTIN CORPORATION - Grand Prairie TX

International Classification:

G06F 3/048

US Classification:

715841

Abstract:

In one aspect, a computer-implemented method for use in controlling an operating environment includes: scoring a plurality of events detected within the operating environment to indicate an objective importance for a decision maker to address; presenting to the decision maker the scored events ranked relative to one another by their scores; receiving a selection by the decision maker of a particular one of the ranked events; scoring a plurality of alternative options to the selected event; presenting to the decision maker the options ranked relative to one another by their scores; receiving a selection by the decision maker of a particular one of the ranked options. In other aspects, a computing apparatus is programmed to perform such a method and a program storage medium is encoded with instructions that, when executed by computing device, perform such a method.

International Classification:

A61B 1/32

US Classification:

600205

Abstract:

A portal access device has a first member pivotally movable relative to a base. A groove is provided at the first member to be in alignment with a bore at the base, so that a cannula may freely extend through the bore, with a portion of the cannula being frictionally held along the groove of the first member. The first member may be rotatably connected to a second member, so that once the cannula is correctly inserted into a portal, the first member may be pivoted from its vertical position to its horizontal position to bend the cannula into a right angle cannula. The cannula is removed from the portal by pivoting the second member upwardly away from the base. In an alternate portal access device where there is only one arm member, the portal access device may be removed from the portal by being pulled vertically upwards.
