Abstract: A process for making a fluorosilicone MDaDFbM? where M=R1R2R3SiO1/2; M?=(OH)R6R7SiO1/2 or (OH)R4R5SiO1/2; D=R4R5SiO2/2; and DF=R6R7SiO2/2; where the subscript a is zero or positive, the subscript b is positive and the subscripts a and b satisfy the following relationship: b>0.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of testing interoperability of a web service against a plurality of web services tools may include steps of providing a web services description language file (WSDL) that describes the web service to be tested; selecting at least one of the plurality of web services tools; generating and compiling sets of proxy files for each selected web service tool based upon the provided WSDL file and loading the generated and compiled proxy files into memory; generating an XML test case for each of the generated and compiled sets of proxy files, the XML test case including dummy variables for each operation of the provided WSDL file; populating the generated XML test case with values for at least some of the dummy variables, and invoking a targeted web service from a selected client platform using the populated XML test case and providing results for each invocation.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for creating a search framework that provides a semantic interface for searching transactional applications are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, a method for enabling at least one transactional application to be searched includes creating a canonical object associated with the transactional application and indexing data associated with the transaction application. The method also includes creating an index store using information associated with the canonical object. The index store is associated with the indexed data. Finally, a semantic engine is interfaced with the index store.
