US Patent:

20080194922, Aug 14, 2008

Filed:

Sep 28, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/863946

Inventors:

James F. Holden - Barrington Hills IL, US

International Classification:

A61B 5/00
A61B 10/00

US Classification:

600300, 128898

Abstract:

This invention relates to providing medical treatment for human and non-human patients. In particular, the invention provides methods and computer program products which reduce clinical data complexity, aid in the identification of actions taken during the course of care which result in disproportionate therapeutic effects, and allow for the “potentiation” of therapy in an individual patient.

Filed:

Mar 4, 2009

Appl. No.:

12/397678

Inventors:

James F. Holden - Barrington Hills IL, US

Assignee:

Holden LLC - South Barrington IL

International Classification:

G06Q 10/00
G06N 5/02

US Classification:

705 7, 706 52

Abstract:

Aspects of the invention may include an exemplary system comprising one or more computers and one or more software applications running on the one or more computers, wherein the one or more software applications quantify the decision and the one or more computers may include a user computer or a computer server. The system further comprises one or more electronic databases, connected to the one or more computers, storing different factor values used in quantifying the decision. The one or more software applications may identify each risk factor in the multiple risk environment and determine a value for one or more risk coefficient factors and opportunity coefficient factors. Further, the one or more software applications may calculate a weighted average for risk coefficient factors based on each risk factor, an opportunity cost coefficient based on opportunity coefficient factors, and calculate the decision quantitatively based on the weighted average for risk coefficients and the opportunity cost coefficient.

Appl. No.:

6/220936

Inventors:

James R. Holden - Chicago IL

Assignee:

GTE Automatic Electric Labs Inc. - Northlake IL

International Classification:

G06F 1300

US Classification:

364200

Abstract:

A bus interchange circuit for use with a microprocessor. Timing, gating, sequencing and storage circuitry provide an interface between a microprocessor and external systems requesting control of the microprocessor's busses.

Appl. No.:

6/220932

Inventors:

James R. Holden - Chicago IL

Assignee:

GTE Automatic Electric Labs Inc. - Northlake IL

International Classification:

H03K 1332
H03K 17296

US Classification:

328120

Abstract:

A monitor circuit, for use in a switching system which detects pulse failures through use of a pair of timing counters. A flip-flop enables and clears each counter alternately in response to detection of the monitored pulse.

Appl. No.:

5/494446

Inventors:

John G. Valassis - Des Plaines IL
James R. Holden - Chicago IL

Assignee:

GTE Automatic Electric Laboratories Incorporated - Northlake IL

International Classification:

G06F 1516

US Classification:

3401725

Abstract:

A bus assigner in an electronic data processing system for selectively assigning access to a system bus to one of a plurality of microprocessors comprising a multiprocessing system. In an embodiment of the present invention, logic circuitry is provided for assigning a priority of operation to each of the microprocessors, each microprocessor having a different assigned priority. The bus assigner selectively assigns access to the sysstem bus to the microprocessor having the highest priority whenever one or more of the microprocessors requests access to the system bus. In an alternative embodiment, the bus assigner sequentially scans the microprocessors for requests for access to the system bus and assigns access to the system bus in the order in which the requests are received by the bus assigner as it scans the microprocessors.

International Classification:

G06F 304
G06F 910
G06F 912

US Classification:

3401725

Abstract:

Apparatus for selecting the operational mode of a particular input/output device in an expandable modular electronic data processing system employing microprocessor devices and testing the I/O device without the use of additional input/output addresses. Input/output interface modules associated with corresponding ones of the I/O devices include a plurality of flip-flops having corresponding memory addresses associated therewith for testing and selecting the operational mode of the I/O device in accordance with the contents of the flip-flops.

Inventors:

James R. Holden - Chicago IL

Assignee:

GTE Communication Systems Corp. - Northlake IL

International Classification:

H04Q 900

US Classification:

379 32

Abstract:

A control circuit, for use in a telephone switching system, which monitors, controls and transfers data to and from memory, input-output devices and external circuits. A pair of microprocessors and associated read-only and random-access memories are operated in a master-slave arrangement. A comparison circuit continuously monitors the integrity of the master microprocessor by comparing the signal on its data, address and control leads with those of a slave microprocessor.
