  • Patent number: 8090748
    Abstract: Methods and system for efficient collection and storage of experimental data allow experimental data from high-throughput, feature-rich data collection systems, such as high-throughput cell data collection systems to be efficiently collected, stored, managed and displayed. The methods and system can be used, for example, for storing, managing, and displaying cell image data and cell feature data collected from microplates including multiple wells and a variety of bio-chips in which an experimental compound has been applied to a population of cells. The methods and system provide a flexible and scalable repository of experimental data including multiple databases at multiple locations including pass-through databases that can be easily managed and allows cell data to be analyzed, manipulated and archived. The methods and system may improve the identification, selection, validation and screening of new drug compounds that have been applied to populations of cells.

  • Publication number: 20040086873
    Abstract: We disclose a method for the correlation of structural feature information derived from digital images of a diagnostic set of histopathological tissue specimens from a group of subjects with shared characteristics and molecular activity (which may be either gene or protein expression) information derived from related specimens of the same set to provide for the objective characterization and analysis of the variability of tissue structural features in relation to such molecular activity (the product of such correlation referred to herein as the “correlated tissue information”). Such correlated tissue information allows for comparison and combination with correlated tissue information obtained through studies taking place at different times, with different protocols for the collection, preservation, histological staining and molecular activity assays of the tissue.

  • Patent number: 5437046
    Abstract: A network monitor, for use in a network comprised of a plurality of segments, each segment connected to at least one other segment by a bridge operating transparently to stations on the network, and for resolving the location of a station on the network, includes a primary resolver for generating and sending a primary probe to the station, a primary observer for monitoring primary probes and for generating and sending a primary observation report in response to the primary probes, a first receiver for receiving the primary observation reports, and a circuit, responsive to the received primary observation reports, for generating and sending secondary probe requests.
