  • Publication number: 20250378072
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for processing a request to migrate a database command query in a source dialect to a target dialect. An example of the target dialect is obtained by processing the database command query in the source dialect using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with the plurality of examples of the target dialect. An instruction is obtained for instructing a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model to translate the database command query in the source dialect to the target dialect by processing the database command query in the source dialect using RAG with the plurality of instructions. A prompt is generated for the generative AI model using the database command query in the source dialect, the example, and the instruction. A candidate database command query is generated by prompting the generative AI model with the prompt to migrate the database command query in the source dialect to the target dialect.

  • Patent number: 10752393
    Abstract: A human tissue isolation pouch for use with a sealer machine to indirectly seal human tissue medical pouches while avoiding cross contamination is herein disclosed. The human tissue isolation pouch comprises a rigid frame supporting a high temperature material and having one or more magnets for removably attaching the human tissue isolation pouch to a sealer machine. During use a medical pouch, which may contain a human tissue sample, is inserted within the human tissue isolation pouch. The jaws of the sealer machine clamp down directly on the high temperature material, thus indirectly heating and sealing the medical pouch inside the human tissue isolation pouch. The sealing machine jaws do not physically contact the medical pouch at any time during the sealing process, and in this way contamination of the sealer machine (and cross contamination of medical pouches from distinct donor cases) is avoided. The rigid frame of the human tissue isolation pouch may be sterilized after each donor event.

  • Publication number: 20180328813
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and method for inspecting and monitoring the seal integrity and/or seal strength of sterile medical packages, and more particularly, to a medical package sealer device having integrated vacuum decay or differential pressure testing allowing for real-time seal strength or integrity testing of each medical package sealed by the device. The present invention may also be described as a method for sealing and testing medical packages. By communicatively coupling the mass flow meter(s) to the processor of the herein disclosed device for sealing medical packages with integrated real-time seal integrity vacuum decay or differential pressure testing, each sealed package may be tested for a quantitative measure of air flow, and the quantitative measure of air flow may be recorded and stored in a searchable database, or used to provide a notification to an operator or to stop operation of the system.

  • Publication number: 20060036824
    Abstract: The updating of components of storage keys is managed. A control program indicates whether the updating of selected components of a storage key can be bypassed. If the updating of the selected components can be bypassed, then depending on the circumstances, an update of the storage key may not need to be performed, saving on quiesce operations. The likelihood that the updating of a storage key can be bypassed is enhanced by selecting a block of storage, along with its associated storage key, from a designated queue or designated region of a queue.
