Publication number: 20210056163Abstract: A computer-implemented method for supplementing measurement results of automated analyzers is presented. The method includes obtaining, at a computer device, a result of a measurement performed by an automated analyzer, the computer device and the automated analyzer being located within a privileged computer network, obtaining a context related algorithm associated with the result of the measurement defining one or more triggering conditions and context related information from a computer device residing outside of the privileged computer network at the computer device and processing the result of the measurement by using the context related algorithm to generate a context specific supplement to the result of the measurement at the computer device.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2020Publication date: February 25, 2021Applicant: Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc.Inventors: Andreas Calatzis, Felix Dross, Marianne Wilmer, Simon Davidson

Patent number: 10764109Abstract: Instantiating a resource of an IT-service includes analyzing a service model of an IT-service, the service model including a node representing a resource for providing the IT-service. A resource type of the resource being indicated by the node is determined, and a resource manager being operable to instantiate the resource is identified. A resource-manager-specific API of the resource manager is identified, and at least one abstract method for instantiating the resource is overridden with a resource-manager specific method of the resource-manager-specific API. The resource-manager specific method for instantiating the resource represented by the node is executed.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2018Date of Patent: September 1, 2020Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: John E.

Patent number: 10135669Abstract: Instantiating a resource of an IT-service includes analyzing a service model of the IT-service where the service model includes a node representing a resource for providing the IT-service. The node has a generic API providing an abstract method for instantiating the resource. A determination is made whether the node is a multi-instance node representing a resource being instantiable multiple times. If so, a determination is made whether a first instance of the resource represented by the multi-instance node already exists in a runtime environment providing the IT-service. If so, a selection criteria is computed to identify and select a resource manager configured to instantiate a second instance of the resource based on collocation or anti-collocation parameters in the runtime environment. The abstract method for instantiating the second instance of the resource is overridden with a resource-manager specific method of a resource-manager-specific API specified by the selected resource manager.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2017Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: John E.

Patent number: 9787528Abstract: Instantiating a resource of an IT-service includes analyzing a service model of the IT-service where the service model includes a node representing a resource for providing the IT-service. A resource type of the resource being indicated by the node is determined, and a service provider catalog is evaluated to determine a resource manager operable to instantiate the resource and an address of the resource manager. A request is sent to the address of the resource manager for a description of a resource-manager-specific API of the resource manager. Upon receipt of the requested description, at least one abstract method for instantiating the resource is overridden with a resource-manager specific method of the resource-manager-specific API, and the resource-manager specific method for instantiating the resource represented by the node is executed.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2016Date of Patent: October 10, 2017Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: John E.

Publication number: 20170261526Abstract: A method for monitoring the performance of an analyzer for biological samples having an automated preparation device is presented. The method comprises receiving an instruction that a monitoring procedure shall be executed, after receipt of the instruction that a monitoring procedure shall be executed, obtaining, by the automated preparation device, at least two quality control ingredients from a repository including a plurality of quality control ingredients, and mixing, by the automated preparation device, the at least two quality control ingredients in a sample preparation receptacle to obtain a quality control which mimics the properties of a biological sample to be analyzed by the analyzer. The method further comprises determining at least one parameter of the quality control and determining a status of the analyzer based on the determined parameter of the quality control.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2017Publication date: September 14, 2017Inventors: Andreas Calatzis, Felix Dross
