Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to an snubber circuit and a power converter having an active circuit. The snubber circuit includes a series connection of a first diode and a first inductor connected between a first interfacing point and a first connection point, a second diode connected between a second connection point and a second interfacing point, a series connection of a third diode and a second inductor between a third interfacing point and the second connection point, a switching device connected between the first connection point and the third interfacing point, and a first capacitor connected between the first connection point and the second connection point. The first, the second, and the third diode are forward-biased along a path between the first interfacing point and the second interfacing point and through the third interfacing point.

Abstract: Records of events associated with network entities in a network environment are received, where the network entities are selected from hardware entities, software entities, and combinations of hardware and software entities. The records of the events are identified to identify relationships between events associated with different ones of the network entities, where the records of the events identify corresponding network entities impacted by the events. A Bayesian network is constructed based on the analyzing, wherein the constructed Bayesian network is able to make predictions regarding relationships between events associated with the network elements.

Abstract: Perfume compositions effective against urine malodor and having a low odor, comprise between 20% and 50% of perfume ingredients comprising at least 15% by-weight of N-ethyl-N-(3-methylphenyl) propanamide.

Abstract: Perfume ingredients have been investigated and classified for their effectiveness in detaching biofilms from surfaces. Based on this classification, perfume compositions that are effective in assisting biofilm detachment can be formulated, whilst also allowing a degree of freedom in formulation that permits consideration of the hedonic properties of the composition. The compositions can be used in a wide range of perfumed consumer products, such as personal, domestic and industrial products, e.g. hard surface cleaning products, dental care products, and deodorant products.

Abstract: Perfume compositions effective against urine malodour and having a low odour, comprise between 20% and 50% of perfume ingredients comprising at least 15% by-weight of N-ethyl-N- (3-methylphenyl) propanamide.

Abstract: A method of enforcing software license protection in a computer system comprising; morphing the data prior to distribution, resulting in morphed data; wherein morphing of data is accomplished by applying a reversible morphing algorithm to modify data, wherein said reversible morphing algorithm is uniquely seeded and/or controlled with control information.

Abstract: A method of protecting data in a computer system against attack from viruses and worms comprising; modifying micro-code of a processor of system to be protected to remove homogeneity between processors from a manufacturer; modifying op-codes of an application to match modified micro-code of the processor prior to execution.

Abstract: A flavor composition which includes as, at least 8% of its total weight, (a) at least 0.5% by weight of a peppermint oil containing 1-isopropylidene-4-methyl-2-cyclohexanone in an amount from 1% to 4% by weight, 5-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)-1-cyclohexanone in an amount from 8% to 13% by weight and less than 0.5% by weight of eucalyptol; and a spearmint oil containing less than 70% by weight of carvone and at least 14% by weight of limonene; or mixtures thereof; and (b) at least 0.5% by weight of two or more of the following: decanol, octanal, allyl hexanoate, anethole, anised rectified, basil oil, benzyl butyrate, camomile oil, cinnamic aldehyde, cis-3-hexenyl acetate, citral natural, citronella ceylon, ethyl heptanoate, eugenol, fennel sweet, geranyl acetate, ionone alpha, lime, orange flavour, para cresyl methyl ether and pinene alpha. The compositions are useful in reducing oral malodors.

Abstract: Flavor compositions which reduce or prevent dental cavities based on the use of flavor materials found to inhibit the production of acid by micro-organisms in the oral cavity, e.g. lactic acid production from glucose by Streptococcus mutans. The compositions include at least two flavor materials from group (a) and at least one flavor material from group (b). Representative group (a) flavors are decanol, nonanol and cinnamic aldehyde while typical group (b) flavors are nonanal, citral and peppermint oil of material origin.
