Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method for sharing web modules amongst a plurality of other web applications are provided. Shared web modules are stored in an archive data structure for use with web applications. The web applications, and/or the web modules of the web applications, may include a designation file that identifies the shared web modules that are to be incorporated into the web modules for the web application. A runtime component selectively locates these shared web modules and logically merges them with the web modules of the web application according to precedence or priority of the shared web modules as designated by the shared web module designation file. The result is a logically merged web module that contains the shared web modules referenced in the shared web module designation file.

Abstract: Techniques are described for alert-triggered recording spectrum data. In one embodiment, a method comprises determining whether network performance for one or more communications channels of a wireless network is below a threshold. In response to determining that the network performance for the one or more communications channels of the wireless network is below the threshold, recording of spectrum data for energy on the one or more communications channels of the wireless network is initiated. In an embodiment, determining whether network performance is below a threshold comprises determining whether the quality of at least one communications channel is below a threshold. In another embodiment, determining whether network performance is below a threshold comprises determining whether one or more network parameters monitored on one or more network elements indicate that network performance is below a threshold.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a computer system monitors information assets providing data for constructing a logical entity. The information assets are dependent upon each other for data and form a topology. The computer system receives an event message associated with an information asset. The event message includes information relating to one or more conditions of that information asset. The computer system processes the received event message to determine the presence of a change within the associated information asset that affects the topology. The change is determined based on the information relating to the one or more conditions within the received event message. The computer system further transmits a notification of the change to one or more entities in response to determining the presence of the change. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for monitoring information assets.

Abstract: In accordance with the invention, cookies are automatically synchronized across multiple client machines on a network. A user registers all of the client machines for which he desires cookie synchronization under a single account with a cookie synchronization server. Each of the client machines is equipped with software that monitors all changes made to cookies at that machine and sends notifications of the changes to the cookie synchronization server. The cookie synchronization server stores the cookie change information in a log and sends it out to the other client machine in the account, which then update their cookies accordingly.

Abstract: Orthodontic systems and related methods are disclosed for designing and providing improved or more effective tooth moving systems for eliciting a desired tooth movement and/or repositioning teeth into a desired arrangement. Methods and orthodontic systems of the invention include tooth attachments having improved or optimized parameters selected or modified for more optimal and/or effective application of forces for a desired/selected orthodontic movement. Attachments of the present invention can be customized to a particular patient (e.g., patient-customized), a particular movement, and/or a sub-group or sub-set of patients, and configured to engage an orthodontic tooth positioning appliance worn by a patient, where engagement between the attachment and orthodontic appliance results in application of a repositioning force or series/system of forces to the tooth having the attachment and will generally elicit a tooth movement.

Abstract: A set of programs allows a server computer that does not have an application installed to temporarily hand off a client request for the application to a peer server until the application is installed on the first server. The hand off is transparent to the client and temporary to the peer server. The server asynchronously starts the application, and when the application is ready for use, the first server stops sending requests to the peer server, and begins serving the requests. Since the first server has full session knowledge, it will be transparent to the client that the server servicing those requests temporarily changed.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a training simulator for an engineering project are disclosed. A simulator operable to simulate the engineering project is provided.

A training simulator component is incorporated into the simulator. The training simulator component is operable to facilitate the training of personnel on suitable operation of the engineering project.

Abstract: A corner support assembly for attachment to wall scaffold bracket of wall scaffolding. The corner support assembly having an upper mounting adapter, a retaining adapter, a securing rod and a lower mounting adapter. The upper leg of the wall scaffold, the mounting adapter, the wall and the retaining adapter are sandwiched with the securing rod and a rod retaining nut, thereby securing the upper leg of the wall scaffold bracket in place against the wall. The lower mounting adapter and the lower leg of the wall scaffold bracket are forced against the wall providing additional support and stability for the wall scaffold bracket. The stabilizing flanges of the upper and the lower mounting adapters rest against the outside corner of the building and the scaffold bracket is stabilized around the corner. Workers are able to work safely around corners of buildings and they can quickly install the scaffold bracket using common wall scaffolding systems.

Abstract: A fishing jig able to hold a baitfish, the jig including a primary shaft having a fishing line attachment end and a bifurcated free end, the free end supporting opposed hook assemblies in a manner such that each hook assembly is offset from the primary shaft. The primary shaft is preferably long enough for the jig to be able to skewer a baitfish, to thereby hold the baitfish generally centrally, with the attachment end projecting out of the baitfish at or near its head and the bifurcated free end (and opposed hook assemblies) projecting out of the baitfish at or near its tail.

Abstract: A method for the determination of the amount of cholesterol in lipoproteins other than high density lipoproteins in a lipoprotein-containing sample, said method comprising (a) electrochemically determining the amount of cholesterol bound to high density lipoproteins in the sample, (b) electrochemically determining the total amount of cholesterol in the sample, and subtracting the result of (a) from the result of (b).

Abstract: In an electrochemical sensor, the potential difference applied to the electrochemical cell is raised to a measuring value at a rate determined to reduce the transient current. The maximum rate of change of the voltage is set to prevent saturation of an IE converter. The electrochemical cell may contain micro-electrodes as working and reference electrodes. The method may be applied to a battery powered, handheld device.

Abstract: Brachytherapy dose attributable to a brachytherapy source is computed for portions of a patient treatment volume corresponding to a pathological target volume and critical structures. Patient image data is accessed to derive a material voxel array. Multiple computation grids are derived. Primary particle fluence is computed for each first grid element using a ray tracing process from which a primary dose and a first scattered particle source are derived. Scattered particle fluence of the first scattered particle source is derived for each second grid element from which a secondary dose is derived. Each first grid element corresponds to a plurality of second grid elements. Primary dose and scattered dose combine to provide total dose at specific volumes. Brachytherapy source models and non-anatomical body surface models may be applied as applicable.
