  • Patent number: 9687009
    Abstract: A method of producing a pasta filata cheese product, such as a Mozzarella-type cheese, in a continuous process without emulsifier or pH regulator additives requires preparing a typical pasta filata-type cheese curd and supplying the curd in cut pieces to one end of a processing chamber. The chamber has an agitator which rotates to work, knead, stretch and move the curd through the chamber. At the same time, steam is injected into the curd in the chamber through a plurality of injection nozzles spaced along the length of the chamber to heat and cook the cheese while it is mechanically worked. The cooked product exiting from the chamber is molded to a desired shape.

  • Patent number: 8875623
    Abstract: An apparatus for producing a pasta filata cheese product, such as a Mozzarella-type cheese, in a continuous process without emulsifier or pH regulator additives requires preparing a typical pasta filata-type cheese curd and supplying the curd in cut pieces to one end of a processing chamber (14). The chamber (14) has an agitator (18) which rotates to work, knead, stretch and move the curd through the chamber. At the same time, steam is injected into the curd in the chamber through a plurality of injection nozzles (23) spaced along the length of the chamber (14) to heat and cook the cheese while it is simultaneously mechanically worked. The cooked product exiting from the chamber (14) is molded to a desired shape.

  • Publication number: 20060206534
    Abstract: A sequence of processing transactions operating on a cached data set, which depend on each other because they operate on the same items of data from the data set. The transactions are saved until the master copy of the data becomes available. The transactions are played back against the master copy until one of the played back transactions fails because another transaction which operated on the same items of data but against a separate cached copy and originating from another application, was successfully played back on the master copy at an earlier time. At this point, all subsequent transactions which depended on the failing transaction are rolled back on the cached copy (with appropriate failure reports generated) and activity resumes from there. “Chained” (optimistic) transactions can therefore be applied to cached data and can be allowed to progress by recording their dependencies so they can be undone when required.

  • Publication number: 20050256901
    Abstract: A method and system for distribution of information are provided in a publish and subscribe system in which a publisher application transmits a message (210, 310) to one or more subscribing applications (208, 308) via a messaging infrastructure. The method includes receiving (203, 303) a message at a subscribing system (202, 302) and generating an event by the subscribing system to allow access to the message (210, 310) by a subscribing application (208, 308) at a reveal time (211, 311). A counting means (205, 305) on the subscribing system determines when it is the reveal time (211, 311) and the event is triggered at the reveal time (211, 311). A message (210) has a reveal time (211, 311) common to the one or more subscribing applications (208, 308).
