Abstract: A system and method for detecting the presence of firearms and metal articles adapted with embedded RFID tags is disclosed. A plurality of RFID interrogators sequentially and intermittently transmit short burst interrogating signals thereby causing RFID tags within range to transmit a responsive signal which may be used to activate alarms and other security measures. RFID tags are configured using an ASIC chip enabled for 10 Ghz wireless communication. The ASIC chip is embedded within a bolt carrier that includes a slotted antenna aperture resulting in extended range wireless communication. A plurality of RFID interrogators are installed in an detection area and transmit a radio frequency signals which excite any RFID enabled devices within range causing the devices to generate and transmit a response signal which may be used to trigger a variety of security measures such as sounding an alarm, locking doors, contacting law enforcement, etc.

Abstract: A metric collector (530) provides a list of available metrics related to software development, test, and load building for the user's selection. A suite of tools (532) are executed in response to the user's selection to access a number files for data and to compute the selected metrics. A report is then generated to summarize the computed metrics.

Abstract: Source modules (160) are checked-into a version control subsystem (12) and check-in data are sent to the file release control system (10). System 10 provides for the selection of check-in data for attaching to a release form (162), the entry of additional information, such as a problem report number associated with the source module (160), and submission of the release form (162) for approval for a build (170) of a software product. System (10) further provides for the permanent identification (171) of versions of source modules (160) with a specific build (170) of a product.

Abstract: A system and method (510) for software documentation process control includes the steps of receiving and storing check-in data related to documentation (540, 542, 544, 546, 550, 552) checked into a version control system (12). Subsequently, the documentation are associated with a specific version and release of a software product, and tags the documentation with a unique label indicative of the specific version and release of the software product. The documentation is stored in a project file directory (566) associated with the specific version and release of the software product.

Abstract: A document guide mechanism having an upstream end, a downstream end, and a feeding line therebetween. A cupping device including a cupping rib provides stiffness to the documents as they are moved along the feeding line from the upstream end towards the downstream end where the documents are stacked. A flexible band having predetermined parameters is used to form a "wave" which travels along the feeding line to move the trailing edges of documents already stacked away from the feeding line to provide an entrance for the leading edge of a document being moved along the feeding line towards the stacked documents.
