Abstract: Software aggregates and integrates credit exposure and credit data across accounting, trading and operational systems within an organization and generates views of available credit in light of the exposure and credit limits. A comprehensive model of exposure to all counterparties, across all of their divisions and subsidiaries, is assembled, enabling the creation of a hierarchical view of each counterparty that models its real-world parent-child relationships. Credit limits are set across the enterprise, supporting the organization's unique methodology and business process, and on a granular basis, incorporating factors such as external credit ratings, internal credit scores, commodity, geographic region, deal duration, and security instruments. Credit, transactions, and risk are then determined at any level in the hierarchy.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for continuously monitoring gases exhaled by animals in a laboratory environment for the presence of hepatic bilirubin permits long-term monitoring in which samples are directed into each of a series of sample containers by evacuating each container over a selected time interval while retaining the other containers in a closed position. The gas supply and gas evacuation lines to and from each sample container are simultaneously controlled via a programmer controlled circuit to permit automated sequential filling of the sample containers over a long-term interval. The sample containers are mounted in a wall-mounted cabinet having hinged display shelves for the containers with a common control panel behind the shelves to regulate the sampling and filling operation.
