Abstract: Disclosed is a method of strength testing of a drawer of a computer rack system. The method utilizes a test apparatus including a first apparatus plate and a second apparatus plate positioned to define an apparatus slot between the first apparatus plate and the second apparatus plate. The apparatus includes a moveable positioning arm disposed in the apparatus slot, the moveable positioning arm including a holder portion, a force gauge secured to the holder portion; and a force applicator operably connected to the force gauge. The test apparatus is secured to an enclosure of the computer rack system and the drawer is located in a desired position in the enclosure. The force applicator is positioned such that the force applicator contacts the drawer at a testing location, and a force is applied to the testing location via the force applicator.

Abstract: A system and method are provided that employ web service applications to obtain up-to-date information from a plurality of distributed sources in substantially real-time over a network. The system includes web service applications that reside at a plurality of distributed devices. One or more client terminal devices submit data requests, which are broadcast over the network to the plurality of distributed devices. The web service applications receive data requests and authenticate the source of the data request. If authenticated, the web service applications analyze the data request and retrieve information corresponding to the data request from the distributed devices. The retrieved information is forwarded to associated servers and merged into up-to-date reports or other documents.

Abstract: A system that allows movement of information from a source network to a destination network, but prohibits movement of information from the destination network to the source network. A low-side network interface receives a request, and a low-side processor analyzes the request to determine whether it is allowable. A high-side processor denies all request and data from the destination network. In this manner, the high-side processor allows no information to flow from the destination network to the source network.
