Abstract: Described are techniques for performing indication management. Registration criteria is received that includes information identifying a first set data elements of a first data model about which a subscriber is registered to receive notifications. Operations are performed to a second set of data elements stored in a first table of a database in accordance with a second data model where the operations each modify an existing data element of the first table, add a row to said first table or delete a row from said first table. Information is recorded in a delta table regarding the operations. A query is executed that uses the delta table and the first table to generate a virtual table including information regarding the operations performed. First processing is performed using the virtual table to determine notifications for the subscriber regarding data elements of the first set in accordance with said registration criteria.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a wavy physiological signal collecting device and a physiological signal collecting mattress. The device includes a wavy flexible body including a flexible body panel and a plurality of protruding flexible bodies each of which is arranged on the flexible body panel for converting a human body pressure applied thereto to a tensile force; a tensile force sensor arranged in the flexible body panel for generating an electrical signal according to the tensile force; and a signal processing unit configured for processing the electrical signal to obtain a human body physiological signal. The wavy flexible body converts the human body pressure to an electrical signal and processes the electrical signal, thereby obtaining the human body physiological signal in daily life without directly contacting human skin, allowing the physiological signal to be obtained more conveniently.

Abstract: Described are techniques for simulating a data storage configuration. First data is generated that describes a simulated data storage configuration. A database is populated using the first data. First information is retrieved from the database in connection with processing a request from a client. The first information includes at least a portion of the first data.

Abstract: Described are techniques for providing notifications. A client registers a subscription request for a view to provide a notification to the client responsive to a data change affecting the view. The view is generated using one or more commands operating on data included in a database. A first operation is performed to the database. It is determined whether the first operation causes a data change affecting the view. Responsive to determining the first operation causes a data change affecting the view, a notification is sent to the client. The view is updated in response to receiving the notification.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an adsorbed gas content measuring instrument and its testing method. The instrument comprises sealed cylinders, gas collecting graduated canisters and a test box, wherein the sealed cylinders are provided with valves, the gas collecting graduated canisters are equipped with drain hole adjustment valves and vent hole switching valves fit for the valve ports, and there is a heating element and a temperature controller in the test box. The method is mainly as follows: put gas-contained samples and saturated brine into the sealed cylinder, seal the cylinder, feed water in the test box and heat the box, place the sealed cylinder into the water bath of the test box, introduce saturated brine into the gas collecting graduated canister, connect the canister and cylinder, open the drain hole of the gas collecting graduated canister, record the liquid level of the graduated canister and cut off the connection after the test.

Abstract: A method is used in managing system polling. Polling parameters that are based on a set of criteria are determined for receiving updated information for a managed object in a data storage system. Based on the polling parameters, the managed object is polled. Based on the set of criteria, polling parameters are dynamically changed. Based on the results of polling, polling is disabled for the managed object.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of utilizing the pts gene and antisense ads to increase patchouli alcohol content in Artemisia annua L. plants. Using transgenic Artemisia annua L. plants, the method of the invention consistently increases the patchouli alcohol content in those plants, thus laying down a solid foundation for large-scale production of patchouli alcohol and other secondary metabolites such as terpenes other than artemisinin.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of utilizing the pts gene and RNA interference of the ads gene to increase patchouli alcohol content in Artemisia annua L. plants. Using transgenic Artemisia annua L. plants, the method of the invention consistently increases the patchouli alcohol content in those plants, thus laying down a solid foundation for large-scale production of patchouli alcohol and other secondary metabolites such as terpenes other than artemisinin.

Abstract: Described are techniques for determining progress of a transaction. A plurality of weights are received. Each of the weights indicates a weight for a different one of a plurality of tasks performed to complete processing for the transaction. At a point in time, a plurality of first metrics for the plurality of tasks are determined. Each of the plurality of first metrics corresponds to a first of the plurality of tasks and indicates an amount of the first task completed at the point in time. A second metric is determined indicating an amount of processing completed for the transaction at the point in time. The second metric is determined in accordance with the plurality of first metrics and the plurality of weights.

Abstract: Described are techniques for performing indication management. Registration criteria is received including information identifying a first set of data elements of a first data model about which a subscriber is registered to receive notifications. Operations are performed to a second set of data elements stored in a data store in accordance with a second data model. The second set of data elements in accordance with the second data model is mapped to a third set of data elements in accordance with the first data model. Using the first set and the third set, a first portion of the third set is determined which is identified in the first set. First processing is performed in accordance with the registration criteria and the first portion of the third set to determine notifications for a subscriber regarding data elements of the first set.

Abstract: In a storage processor having a provider framework, one embodiment is directed to a method for providing an object. The method includes receiving, by a data access layer of the provider framework, an object request from a client device, the object request identifying at least one object. The method includes applying, by the data access layer, a mapping module to the object request to access object data associated with the object request. The method includes generating, by the data access layer, the at least one object identified in the object request. The method includes forwarding, by the data access layer, the at least one object to the client device.

Abstract: Described are techniques for providing a consolidated logical view of a system. A plurality of database tables associated with a plurality of processing nodes of a data storage system is provided. The plurality of database tables provides a plurality of individual views of the data storage system and each of the individual views represents a view of the data storage system for a different processing node.
