Abstract: A hint bit detection and correction method and system that uses two additional bits as part of every cache directory. These bits represent the lwarx and stwcx instructions (larx disp, stcx disp). When a hint bit event occurs, depending the on combination of these two bits, there can be an indication of a hint bit error. Once a hint bit error is detected a software interrupt is issued and the hint bit correction method identifies and corrects the incorrect hint bit.

Abstract: Various technologies and techniques improve the process for creating and displaying context menus and tooltips. Procedures for listening for events, enabling, retrieving and displaying context menus and tooltips reside in a central service model. The developer accesses the central service model and specifies content for a context menu or tooltip. Rich media content such as audio, video, and graphic output can be included in context menus and tooltips. Shapes and effects of displayed content can also be customized.

Abstract: A concealed sliding partition track and integrated subterranean water removal system includes an elongated generally U shaped main body having an angled top surface and a pair of opposing side section, a plurality of drainage openings are disposed along a lower portion of one side section, and a drainage hose is secured thereon. One or more guide tracks and moisture diverters are positioned along the length of the main body and secured thereto via one or more support plates. One or more gaps are positioned between the guide tracks and moisture diverters.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and system for position based tracking of operation of a transport refrigeration unit (TRU). A client application is provided on a data logger connected to the TRU. The client application determines position data of the TRU with respect to predefined geographic zones, acquires operational data of the TRU when the TRU is within the predefined geographic zones, and communicates with a remote server via wired communication or wireless communication. When the TRU arrives at a new facility that has not been defined as a geographic zone that the TRU operates in, a new geographic zone for the new facility is defined. The client application notifies a user of the TRU regarding control of the TRU's operating conditions based on the position data and the operational data. The control of the operating conditions ensures compliance of the user with TRU airborne toxic control measures.

Abstract: An apparatus and method is disclosed for providing capacity on demand using control to alter latency and/or bandwidth on a signaling bus in a computer system. If additional capacity is required, authorization is requested for additional capacity. If authorized, bandwidth of the signaling bus is increased to provide additional capacity in the computing system. Alternatively, upon authorization, latency of data transmissions over the signaling bus is reduced. In another alternative, upon authorization, memory timings are adjusted to speed up memory fetches and stores.

Abstract: Techniques for delayed loading and instantiation of resources in a resource dictionary are provided. These techniques can be used to delay or defer the loading of values (or “value records”) into the resource dictionary until the values are actually needed or requested by an application.

Abstract: Locating a graphical element associated with an object includes obtaining a key for the object, using the key to determine a particular data table containing the graphical element, and using the key to obtain an identifier for the graphical element within the data table. Associating a particular graphical element with an object includes providing the graphical element at a particular location separate from the object, providing a key indicating the particular location and an identifier for the graphical element at the location, and associating the key with the object. Drawing a graphical element associated with an object includes locating the graphical element, wherein the graphical element is at a location different from the object and after locating the graphical element, drawing the graphical element. Locating the graphical element may include obtaining a key for the object, where the key indicates a particular resource dictionary and a particular location within the resource dictionary.

Abstract: Theme changes for a custom graphical element are facilitated by providing a mechanism for storing theme specific data for the custom graphical element, providing a software object, independent of the custom graphical element, that monitors theme change events and, in response to a new theme being selected, the software object causing the custom graphical element to be redrawn according to the new theme. The custom graphical element may be graphical portions of a custom control, or a custom control itself. Switching to a new theme for an integrated graphical unit may be provided by marking for redrawing all of the graphical elements of the integrated graphical unit, traversing the elements, and redrawing each element that is marked. There may be provided a directory of theme files and, in each theme file, theme specific information indicating visual appearance of graphical elements.

Abstract: A catheter holder designed to deliver a curable biomaterial to an intervertebral disc space. By securing the catheter to the catheter holder, the depth of insertion of the catheter into the disc space can be accurately controlled. The catheter holder optionally helps with insertion of a optional mold through the annulotomy and into the disc space created by the nuclectomy. The catheter holder helps keep the mold from being drawn too far into the disc space or pushed too far out of the disc space during polymer injection.

Abstract: A multi-lumen mold is for the in situ formation of a prosthesis in an annulus located in an intervertebral disc space of a patient. The annulus has at least two openings formed by minimally invasive techniques and at least a portion of the nucleus pulposus is removed to form a nuclear cavity. The multi-lumen mold includes a mold adapted to be located in the nuclear cavity. A first lumen having a distal end is fluidly coupled to a flexible mold at a first location. At least a second lumen having a distal end fluidly coupled to the flexible mold at a second location. The first and second lumens are adapted to extend out through the openings in the annulus when the mold is positioned in the nuclear cavity. One or more securing members can be used to secure the mold in the intervertebral disc space. The securing members can engage with the annulus, the end plates, and/or another surface of a vertebrate.
