The assembly includes a bioreactor vessel having an interior space for culturing cells and a sidewall at least partly defining the interior space; and a plurality of cell culture substrate layers in the interior space, each layer having a structurally defined surface for culturing cells thereon. The structurally defined surface defines an ordered and regular array of openings through a thickness of the layer. The assembly further includes a sleeve at least partially surrounding the plurality of cell culture substrate layers and having at least one sample access window. The sample access window includes an opening in the sleeve to allow one or more layers of the cell culture substrate to be removed from the sleeve through the opening.

Abstract: A method includes receiving one or more data files that have one or more user-selected input parameters associated with one or more electrical devices in an industrial system, one or more output parameters associated with the electrical devices, one or more input/output parameter tags, a frequency or a condition associated with data transmission for each electrical device, or a combination thereof. The electrical devices may communicate via a first communication network based on the International Electrotechnical Commission 61850 standard, and the controller may communicate via a different communication network. The method also includes automatically programming the controller to control one or more operations of each electrical device based on the data files and transmitting the data files to a gateway device communicatively coupled to the controller along a backplane of a chassis system. The gateway device is automatically configured based on the one or more data files.

Abstract: The invention relates to a twisted pair cable and connector combination comprising a cable having a plurality of twisted pairs, each twisted pair comprising a first conductor and a second conductor, an electrical connector having an electrical connection element for each conductor of the cable and a window through which the conductors of the cable enter the connector, wherein each conductor in the cable is electrically coupled to a one of the electrical connection elements in the electrical connector, and a guide element disposed adjacent the window for guiding the twisted pairs into the connector, the guide element having a distal end and a proximal end and a length there between, the guide element curved over the length and including at least one channel running along the length of the guide element body for each twisted pair, the guide element gradually transitioning over the length from a first cross sectional shape wherein said channels are disposed in a pattern relative to each other corresponding to th

Abstract: Systems and methods of asynchronous interactive game play are described. In some embodiments, a method permits a first player to access a first game instance of a multiplayer online game and access a second game instance of the multiplayer online game. The second game instance is accessed at a first time. The first game instance is associated with the first player and the second game instance is associated with a second player. The method receives an identification of an in-game action performed by the first player in the second game instance while the first player accesses the second game instance. The second player is permitted to access the second game instance at a second time, which is later than the first time. The method causes display to the second player an identification of the in-game action performed by the first player in the second game instance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and methodology facilitating remote namespace management in an industrial control environment. An industrial control system is provided that includes an industrial controller to communicate with a network such as the Internet. Namespace information relating to network locations of associated control devices are accumulated by the control system and/or a server interacting with the control system. The accumulated namespace data can then be employed to manage automated activities such as determining a network topology or mapping. Accumulated topology information can be utilized to determine a status of the collective entity contributing to the network and facilitating remote management of the entity. Such status can be employed to determine current device information in order to launch a plurality of other automated procedures to located devices in the topology.
