The patterns of contraction and relaxation of the heart before and during left ventricular or biventricular pacing are analyzed and displayed in real time mode to assist physicians to screen patients for cardiac resynchronization therapy, to set the optimal A-V or right ventricle to left ventricle interval delay, and to select the site(s) of pacing that result in optimal cardiac performance. The system includes an accelerometer sensor; a programmable pace maker, a computer data analysis module, and may also include a 2D and 3D visual graphic display of analytic results, i.e. a Ventricular Contraction Map. A feedback network provides direction for optimal pacing leads placement. The method includes selecting a location to place the leads of a cardiac pacing device, collecting seismocardiographic (SCG) data corresponding to heart motion during paced beats of a patient's heart, determining hemodynamic and electrophysiological parameters based on the SCG data, repeating the preceding steps for another lead placement location, and selecting a lead placement location that provides the best cardiac performance by comparing the calculated hemodynamic and electrophysiological parameters for each different lead placement location.

A system and method are disclosed for computing a vehicle's motion in four dimensions (e.g., three spatial dimensions and time) and reliably predicting the vehicle's arrival time at a predetermined location, by providing a graphical display to an operator of the vehicle's progress that enables the operator to adjust the vehicle's movement and achieve the desired arrival time. Specifically, a system and method are disclosed for computing the movement of an aircraft in four dimensions, predicting its arrival time at a predetermined waypoint, and displaying (in a highly intuitive format) the aircraft's progress in achieving that desired arrival time. The pilot can then adjust the movement (e.g., speed) of the aircraft in accordance with the parameter(s) displayed, in order to achieve the desired arrival time. Thus, for example, numerous aircraft could be scheduled to arrive at a specific final approach waypoint at a predetermined rate (e.g., one aircraft per minute), which would enable the traffic controllers to optimize runway traffic without having to stack the aircraft in holding patterns and thereby waste fuel. Notably, although an example of an aircraft navigation and control system and method is disclosed, the system and method can be implemented for any type of vehicle (e.g., aircraft, spacecraft, ship, submarine, bus, train, automobile, etc.) whose operator desires to reach a particular location at a specified time.

Methods and apparatus are provided for managing a data packet queue corresponding to a resource of a network device. A token count T_C is maintained for a predefined flow of data packets, and the transmission of packets in the flow into the queue is controlled in dependence on this token count. The token count is decremented when packets in the flow are transmitted into the queue, and the token count is incremented at a token increment rate C. A bandwidth indicator, indicative of bandwidth availability in the resource, is monitored, and the token increment rate C is varied in dependence on this bandwidth indicator. The bandwidth-dependent variation of the token increment rate C is such that, when available bandwidth is indicated, the increment rate C is increased, and when no available bandwidth is indicated the increment rate C is decreased.

The invention is for a method for predicting an imminent episode of ventricular tachyarrhythmia by an analysis of the variations in the heart beat frequency during otherwise normal appearing sinus rhythm in the normal beat frequency range. The analysis is based on detecting a prolonged pattern of increasing heart beat rate. When the method is implemented by hardware it can initiate, or cause to be initiated, preventive therapies. A further implementation can cause the patient or attendant to be notified of imminent ventricular tachyarrhythmia. Both implantable and external devices are considered.

A system and method are provided for psychographically profiling a target population of individuals, programmably implemented in a server apparatus. The psychographic segmentation portion includes a questionnaire processing part, a segment solution part, and a typing tool part. The questionnaire processing part acquires a plurality of responses to a predetermined set of questionnaire questions by an initial pool of target population members. The questionnaire processing part uses a combination of weighted statistical methodologies to arrive at a rule-based decision on whether the question would serve as a good wedge variable. Optionally, the rule based decision is then compared to an expert's opinion and the weights and threshold parameters of the weighted statistical combination are adjusted accordingly to more accurately match the expert's decision. The identified wedge variables are used for effectively segregating the target population into groups of homogenous individuals. The typing tool part selectively generates an abbreviated set of questions from the predetermined set of questionnaire questions for profiling an individual respondent to at least one of the segments.
