Abstract: A method and system that enables data to be shared across application systems via a table substitution scheme. Tables are identified in the legacy application system that are candidates for substitution of tables in the core application system containing similar data. Table structure meta data corresponding to these “substituted” tables are then extracted from the legacy system schema, and stored in a repository. In accordance with the meta data, business logic is defined to remap columns in the core tables to corresponding columns in the substituted tables. Accordingly, when the core application system performs data access (e.g., reads, inserts, updates, etc.), it accesses the remapped columns in the substituted tables instead of original columns in the core tables. At the same time, the legacy application system is enabled to concurrently access the substituted tables without require any changes to the business logic of the legacy application system.

Abstract: An article of manufacture having a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in a table. The table selected from the group of tables consisting of TABLES 1S–16S, 1R–17R, and IGV. Wherein X and Y are distances in inches which, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z in inches. The profile sections at the Z distances being joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for classifying ovarian tumors into BRCA1-type, BRCA2-type or non-BRCA-type tumor types by measuring expression levels of a plurality of disclosed ovarian tumor markers. The markers disclosed herein are useful in the diagnosis, staging, detection, and/or treatment of ovarian cancer. Also provided are methods of selecting a treatment regimen by selecting the tumor type. Ovarian cancer-linked logarithmic expression ratios and kits for diagnosis, staging, and detection of ovarian cancer using are also provided.

Abstract: A flexible manufacturing line and manufacturing process employs an overhead gantry system to transfer fixtured workpieces between machining stations served by the gantry system. The machining stations include CNC machines, turret cells, and/or dedicated machines which receive the fixtured workpieces through top-entry openings. The invention provides flexibility and adaptability to variation, improved maintenance of reference position on the fixture during manufacture, improved accessibility to machining stations during operation, and increased safety.

Abstract: A flexible manufacturing line and manufacturing process employs an overhead gantry system to transfer fixtured workpieces between machining stations served by the gantry system. The manufacturing system includes a fixturing system including a transfer unit specially configured for quick connection and quick disconnection from a machining table. An accurate placement of the transfer unit is achieved using a combination of locating features.

Abstract: A system for providing access to a plurality of disparate content repositories comprising a client application program interface (API) that is configured to generate a user request to access content and metadata properties in a plurality of content repositories having a plurality of proprietary program interfaces, a plurality of bridges that translate the user request into a format understandable by the proprietary program interfaces of the plurality of content repositories, and a view services component that processes and converts results content from the plurality of content repositories into a format understandable by said client API. The system further includes an access services component that relays the user request from said client API to said plurality of bridges, and an exchange services server that enables import and export of content and metadata properties in the plurality of content repositories in an XML format.

Abstract: The invention provides an endometriosis mouse model wherein severely compromised immune deficient (SCID) female mice are transplanted with human xenografts of normal endometrial tissue, but result in mice with human endometriosis. Typically, the xenografts are treated with a micronized estrogen source prior to transplantation or implantation and the endogenous progesterone of the mice is eliminated also prior to transplantation of the human xenograft. These diseased mice are useful in the study of endometriosis.

Abstract: A scalable clustered system includes a global fabric, and two or more cluster nodes interconnected via the global fabric. Each cluster node includes a node naming agent (NNA), a local fabric and one or more end nodes interconnected via the local fabric. The NNA is configured as a fully symmetrical translation device interposed between the local fabric and the global fabric. The NNA provides support for scaled clustering by transforming a local/global cluster address into a corresponding global/local cluster address for each packet in an outbound/inbound path. As embodied and broadly described herein, the invention relates also to a method including steps for scaling the clustered system. Additionally, the invention relates to a computer readable medium in a scalable clustered system that embodies computer program code configured to cause that system to perform steps for configuring and scaling that system.

Abstract: A data communication system embodying an apparatus and a method provides simultaneous paths between a plurality of transmit ports and a plurality of receive ports for transmitting therebetween data identifying their destination receive ports. Such data are signals which are constructed in accordance with a standard serial protocol for frame element communication, such as HDLC (High-level Data Link Control). The system is assembled in a chassis containing a backplane and multiple cards having transmit and receive ports through which the cards couple the backplane.
