Abstract: Record clustering is performed by learning from verified clusters which are used as the source of training data in a deduplication workflow utilizing supervised machine learning.

Abstract: A traffic shifting system is described to shift traffic away from one or more network devices or interfaces. The system ensures that traffic can be safely shifted off of a network device before the shifting occurs. The method is described as broken into several phases, such as a discovery phase, a pre-check phase, a shifting phase, and a post-shift phase. Before shifting occurs, the discovery phase is used to obtain network topology and configuration information. In the pre-check phase, that information is interrogated so that a shifting can be performed without negatively impacting the network. If the pre-check phase is passed, then the network shifting can occur through adjustment of configuration parameters, such as a cost parameter associated with an interface on any devices for which traffic is being shifted. Finally, in the post-shift phase, checks are performed to ensure traffic is shifting away from the network device.

Abstract: A traffic shifting system is described to shift traffic away from one or more network devices or interfaces on those devices. The system ensures that traffic can be safely shifted off of a network device before the shifting occurs. The method is described as broken into several phases for simplicity, such as a discovery phase, a pre-check phase, a shifting phase, and a post-shift phase. Before shifting occurs, the discovery phase is used to obtain network topology and configuration information. In the pre-check phase, that information is interrogated so that a shifting can be performed without negatively impacting the network.

Abstract: A strainable bag with a hook-and-hook closure can include walls formed of a material having multiple layers of polymer or paper or mixtures thereof, and which can include at least one gusset. The hook-and-hook closure allows for liquids or gases to be vented from the bag, as well as for liquids to be removed from the bag interior. The bag can be formed into a full open mouth configuration for ease of filling and ease of dispensing product. The hook-and-hook closure also allows for an imprecise alignment of the closure track to substantially close the bag around the gusset area. Methods of using and manufacturing a strainable bag with a hook-and-hook closure for preparing various food products are also presented.

Abstract: An article of manufacture including a bag made of a multi-layer laminate. The bag can have a front surface, a rear surface, two side surfaces, a bottom surface, and a top surface; the bag having a height, a width, and a depth, and an internal volume. The bag can be sealable and have a seal strength of at least about 1,600 pounds per square inch. The multi-layer laminate can have a thickness of from about 130 to about 200 microns. The plastic laminate can include an inner layer and an outer layer, wherein the outer layer can include a nylon and the inner layer can include a polyethylene. The plastic laminate can have a dart drop resistant of at least about 5 grams/mil and a tear resistance of at least about 6 grams/mil and 9 grams/mil in the machine direction and cross direction, respectively.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel aspartates, their method of production and the use of these mono and polyaspartates as reactive components for polyisocyanates in two-component polyurethane coating compositions and for preparing polyurethane prepolymers.

Abstract: A modular structure is disclosed that includes a variety of separate units having an armored panel secured to a frame portion. The units, which exhibit a variety of shapes and dimensions, may be joined together to form modular structures with different configurations. For example, the units may be joined together to form an enclosed modular structure with a box-like configuration that is loaded onto a bed of a conventional truck for the transportation of troops or equipment. When joined, the various frame portions form a frame that extends around the modular structure and provides support, and the various panels are positioned adjacent to each other to form a shell that encloses the individuals or equipment.
