Abstract: A method for cleaning deposits from a wave energy converter includes driving at least one rotatably mounted component that is coupled to an energy converter. The energy converter is configured to convert energy from wave motion of a fluid into a different form of energy. A negative energy balance of the wave energy converter is present during the cleaning over an average period of time.

Abstract: System, method and program product determine redirection of a Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) sent by a web browser to an application. A first URL is sent to the application, and in response, a first web page is received from the application. A second URL is created by appending one or more characters to the first URL. The second URL is unrecognizable by the application. A request for the second URL is sent to the application, and in response, a second web page is received. The content of the second web page is compared to the content of the first web page. If the content of the second web page matches the content of the first web page, a record is made indicating that the first web page is a redirected web page.

Abstract: System, method and program product determine whether a first web page returned to a web browser is a redirected web page. A dummy URL is created by appending one or more characters to a URL of the first web page. The one or more characters are chosen such that the dummy URL is likely to elicit a redirected web page. The request for the dummy URL is sent. A second web page is received in response to the request. The content of the second web page is compared to content of the first web page to determine if the first web page is a redirected web page. If the content of the second web page matches the content of the first web page, a record is made indicating that the first web page is a redirected web page.
