Abstract: A methods and device for accessing virtual machine (VM) data are described. A computing device for accessing virtual machine comprises an access request process module, a data transfer proxy module and a virtual disk. The access request process module receives a data access request sent by a VM and adds the data access request to a request array. The data transfer proxy module obtains the data access request from the request array, maps the obtained data access request to a corresponding virtual storage unit, and maps the virtual storage unit to a corresponding physical storage unit of a distributed storage system. A corresponding data access operation may be performed based on a type of the data access request.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for equitable distribution of excess shared-resource throughput capacity are disclosed. A first and a second work target are configured to access a shared resource to implement accepted work requests. Admission control is managed at the work targets using respective token buckets. A first metric indicative of the work request arrival rates at the work targets during a time interval, and a second metric associated with the provisioned capacities of the work targets are determined. A number of tokens determined based on a throughput limit of the shared resource is distributed among the work targets to be used for admission control during a subsequent time interval. The number of tokens distributed to each work target is based on the first metric and/or the second metric.

Abstract: The present invention provides a measurement system of real-time spatially-resolved spectrum and time-resolved spectrum and a measurement module thereof. The measurement system includes an excitation light and a measurement module. The excitation light excites a fluorescent sample and the measurement module receives and analyzes fluorescence emitted by the fluorescent sample. The measurement module includes a single-photon linear scanner and a linear CCD spectrometer. The single-photon linear scanner selectively intercepts a light beam component of a multi-wavelength light beam that has a predetermined wavelength to generate a single-wavelength time-resolved signal, wherein the multi-wavelength light beam is generated by splitting the fluorescence. The linear CCD spectrometer receives the multi-wavelength light beam and generates a spatially-resolved full-spectrum fluorescence signal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of polyunsaturated fatty acids in an organism by introducing, into the organism, nucleic acids which encode polypeptides with ?5-elongase activity. Advantageously, these nucleic acids can be expressed in the organism together with further nucleic acids which encode polypeptides of the biosynthesis of the fatty acid or lipid metabolism. Especially advantageous are nucleic acids which encode ?6-desaturases, ?5-desaturases, ?4-desaturases and/or ?6-elongases. These desaturases and elongases are advantageously derived from Thalassiosira, Euglena or Ostreococcus. The invention furthermore relates to a process for the production of oils and/or triacylglycerides with an elevated content of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, and oils and/or triacylglycerides thus obtained.

Abstract: Methods and systems for scheduling wake/sleep cycles by a central device in a wireless network that have at least one mobile device include determining a system reference cycle as a minimum value of a delay constraint on a real-time service for each mobile device of the at least one mobile device that has a real-time service. A wake/sleep cycle length is attributed to each mobile device. The wake/sleep cycle length is an integer multiple of the system reference cycle such that a wake/sleep cycle length of a first mobile device is different from that of a second mobile device. A sleep period and a wake period are assigned within the wake/sleep cycle of each mobile device. The wake/sleep cycle of each mobile device is arranged to avoid collision of the wake period with those of other mobile devices.
