Abstract: An electrical computer system processing architecture for providing an indication of activity in the electrical computer system, the electrical computer system processing architecture comprising a plurality of client computers connected to at least one server by a computer network. Each of the client computers is configured to provide requests to the at least one server. The or each server comprises a store for storing requests provided by the plurality of client computers. The or each server is configured to match complementary requests from the plurality of client computers stored in the store. Following the matching of complementary requests, the or each server counts unmatched requests corresponding to one or other of the complementary requests in the store, and outputs the counted number of unmatched requests to provide the indication of activity in the computer system.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a method and system for active machine learning model that automatically and continuously improve the model with high accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and universality.

Abstract: Planter modules, preferably of plastic or fiberglass, are mounted into holes on a one or two layer trellis. Mounting of the planter modules occurs normally after the planter module is filled with a bag of soil and plants are planted into the soil so as to start growing out of a front surface of said planter module. The plants are grown for 1-3 months typically before the planter module is mounted in its hole in the trellis. An array of said planter modules is used. The trellis is then erected and mounted to a wall which is to be converted into a green wall covered by plants. The plants then continue to grow in the planter modules and eventually cover the whole trellis thereby covering the wall.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods for modulating apoptosis and altering programmed cell death events using novel Endo-SR gene compositions and the polypeptides encoded thereby. Also disclosed are methods for repairing DNA, modulating genetic recombination in a cell, and altering DNA rearrangement in a host cell. Also disclosed are methods for the design and isolation of peptidomimetics and other inhibitors of Endo-SR useful in the treatment of leukemias, lymphomas, and other cancers.

Abstract: A hollow container having a top and a bottom and forming an internal cavity which is sized to accommodate an aseptic package, there being an opening in the container providing access to the cavity whereby the aseptic package can be inserted into the cavity and be positioned therein with its top adjacent the top of the cavity. A lid operable to retain the aseptic package within the cavity when closed and puncture projections which depend from the lid and project into the cavity so as to pierce the top of the aseptic package when the latter is positioned therein with its top adjacent the top of the cavity, the puncture projection forming an outlet for liquid to be drunk from within the aseptic package through the top of the container. The upper end of the outlet opens into the interior of a mouthpiece through which liquid is drunk from within the aseptic package within the container when the latter is being used.

Abstract: Very small (100 nanometres maximum) non-ionically-stabilised core-sheath addition polymer particles, wherein the core is addition polymer and the sheath polyoxyalkylene chains, at least a portion of which chains are bonded to the core, there being present on each core sufficient chains such that the mass ratio of core to sheath is from 98:2 to 60:40. The particles are prepared by polymerisation in aqueous media initiated at under 40.degree. C. In a preferred embodiment, a seed-feed process is used. The dispersions exhibit excellent rheological characteristics and are useful, for example, as film-formers in coating compositions.

Abstract: A liquid container comprises an open topped vessel of generally rectangular cross-section which tapers from top to bottom and has a lid pivoted to one side wall. The lid has projecting puncture structure which pierces the top of a sealed, semi-rigid package of a beverage, such as fruit juice, when the package is located in the vessel and the lid is closed. A slider closure member is mounted in a slideway structure on the top of the lid so as to be slidable along a rectilinear path over two apertures to either close or open both the apertures. The apertures communicate with the interior of the semi-rigid package in the vessel via passage in the puncture structure when the lid is closed. One aperture is an outlet through which liquid is poured and the other is a vent hole. Recesses in each side wall are provided for holding the package.

Abstract: A liquid container comprises an open topped vessel of generally rectangular cross-section with a handle on one side wall and a lid pivoted to that side wall. The lid has projecting puncture means which pierce the top of a sealed, semi-rigid container of a beverage, such as fruit juice, when the container is located in the vessel and the lid is closed. A slider closure member is mounted in slideway structure on the top of the lid so as to be slidable along a rectangular path over two apertures to either close or open both the apertures, the path being offset relative to the handle so that the slider can be operated by a thumb of a hand by which the handle is gripped. The apertures communicate with the interior of a semi-rigid container in the vessel via passages in the puncture means when the lid is closed. One of the apertures is an outlet through which the liquid is poured and the other is a vent hole.
