Abstract: Software extensions for applications of an enterprise system may be developed in a test system. An adaptation transport module displays, in a test system, a plurality of semantic representations of software extension components for an application of an enterprise system. A semantic representation of a software extension for the application is generated based on a user selection of a combination of the semantic representations of software extension components. An adaptation object comprising the semantic representation of the software extension and at least one associated software object is generated by identifying the associated software object(s) based on an adaptation type of the adaptation object.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an innate DNA sequence within the complete genome sequence of Actinoplanes sp. SE50/110 which resembles the structure of an actinomycete integrative and conjugative element (AICE). Related AICEs were used for establishing genetic manipulation tools for other bacteria in the past. In this document, we describe the unique features of the specific AICE found in Actinoplanes sp. SE50/110 which are clearly distinct from any other known AICE as a whole, but share minor parts with varying sequence similarity with other characterized AICEs from other species.

Abstract: An internal gear pump for a hydraulic vehicle brake system has axial discs which, by the exertion of pressure on the outer sides thereof, are pressed against gearwheels of the internal gear pump for lateral sealing, provided on the inner sides thereof with grooves through which the gearwheels convey brake fluid as they are driven in rotation, which brake fluid thereby passes, for lubrication, between the axial discs and the gearwheels of the internal gear pump.

Abstract: An internal gear pump includes a separator arranged in a pump chamber of the internal gear pump. The separator divides the pump chamber into a delivery chamber and a suction chamber and is arranged so as to be radially moveable and capable of pivoting. The internal gear pump further includes a bearing ring in which a ring gear of the internal gear pump is rotatably supported such that it can pivot about a pin. A pressure prevailing in the pump chamber when the internal gear pump is in operation acts on the ring gear and the bearing ring with a torque, which acts inwardly from the pin in a circumferential direction to the suction chamber and presses tooth tips of teeth of the ring gear inwards against the separator and presses the separator inwards against tooth tips of teeth of the pinion.

Abstract: A device for assisting and/or taking over the pumping function of the heart, with a multilayer sheathing part configured for compressing the heart at least in certain sections, wherein the sheathing part has at least one stabilization layer for shaping the sheathing part and at least one inner extensible augmentation layer, and wherein at least one cavity is formed between the stabilization layer and the augmentation layer, the cavity being inflatable and deflatable by a fluid, for cyclic compression of the heart. Provision is made for the stabilization layer to be inflatable with a fluid, at least in certain sections, in order to convert the sheathing part from a coiled and/or collapsed insertion state of the device in the body into an arched functional state, wherein the heart, in the functional state of the sheathing part, is at least partially sheathed and/or encompassed.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automatically and dynamically composing and executing workflow-based service processes may include receiving a request, the request including a user-selected service type, guided by one or more rules for questionnaire creation, dynamically generating a sequence of one or more electronic inquiries in accordance with the user-selected service type, receiving information based on the sequence of the one or more electronic inquiries, based on the information received, creating a goal for the request by constructing logical state representations of a current state constituting a pre-condition of the goal and of a target state constituting a post-condition of the goal and generating a service process by determining a sequence of services which together fulfill the goal, where the services are selected from a plurality of services such that pre-conditions and post-conditions associated with the selected services together match the pre-condition and the post-condition of the goal.

Abstract: The invention relates to a molded foam body having anisotropic shape memory properties, to a method for manufacturing such a molded foam body and to an article, which contains or is composed of such a molded foam body. The molded foam body according to the invention comprises at least one shape memory polymer, which forms a foam structure having asymmetric pores oriented substantially in a common, first spatial direction (L). Said molded foam body is manufactured by foaming the polymer by means of the release of a gaseous propellant under conditions that promote the release and the escape of the propellant from the polymer substantially in a main flow direction. Following thermomechanical programming, such a shape memory foam exhibits a direction-dependent level of recovery and recovery forces when reheated.
