Abstract: A computer-implemented method of training, using a computer log file, an application error prediction engine to identify one or more application errors includes parsing the computer log file into a plurality of data sets. Each data set is associated with a unique computing session having a session identifier and ending in an application or. The method also includes extracting, from each data set, values for a specified set of parameters in each data set. The method also includes encoding the extracted values for each data set into a corresponding data structure. The method also includes generating, for each data structure, a corresponding vector, the corresponding vectors collectively forming a matrix. The method also includes calculating, based on the matrix, a set of clusters, each cluster corresponding to a known error type, the set of clusters used to create a model used to identify new error types.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a dosage forms and combinations of dosage forms useful for effective oral administration of drugs which are otherwise unsuitable for oral administration, owing to acid- and/or protease-mediated degradation. The dosage forms include a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) with which the drug is combined and an antacid. When co-administered to a mammal, the dosage form(s) can prevent drug degradation by the strong acid and digestive enzymes normally present in the gastric environment, and can improve water-soluble drug absorption in gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The dosage forms can be used to effectively administer insulin by an oral route, for example, such as in the form of a powder that can be stored for long periods and reconstituted with water or another fluid shortly before administration.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to compositions and methods for treatment, such as inducing regression or inhibiting growth, of tumors in a patient such as a human. Use of gemcitabine, including in self-emulsifying orally administered dosage forms for these purposes is described. Gemcitabine is orally administered in a metronomic manner, which involves repeatedly administering a therapeutic amount of gemcitabine, being a fraction of the maximum tolerated dose, over an extended period of time, preferably on a non-interrupted schedule of weeks, months, or indefinitely.

Abstract: The present invention provides an oral self micro-emulsifying pharmaceutical composition of a hydrophilic drug or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof which, in addition to the hydrophilic drug, one or more solvents for solving the hydrophilic drug to form a drug-solvent solution and a surfactant system, further comprises one or more hydrophilic carrier which are compatible with said drug-solvent solution and the surfactant system. The oral self micro-emulsifying pharmaceutical composition of the invention exhibits comparative bioavailability to that of the hydrophilic drug through injection and is stable during storage. A method for preparing the oral self micro-emulsifying pharmaceutical composition is also provided.

Abstract: A method of reducing power consumption of an electronic device, the electronic device including a plurality of sensors, the method comprising the steps of: receiving sensed information from the sensors within a predetermined time period; judging whether the electronic device is under a stationary state within a predetermined time period according to a data variation of the sensed information received within the predetermined time period; and controlling a portion of the sensors to enter into a sleeping state or a low-power consumption state when the electronic device is under the stationary state within the predetermined time period.

Abstract: A controlled release carvedilol formulation for less frequent, preferably once daily administration is described. The controlled release formulation comprises a therapeutically effective amount of carvedilol or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a matrix forming polymer, a solubility enhancer and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
