Publication number: 20250086183Abstract: Extracting data from traffic logs using regular expressions. A traffic log is received from a network device. A characterization of an extraction of data from the traffic log is determined. The traffic log is parsed by applying a first regular expression to the traffic log according to the characterization of the extraction of data from the traffic log to generate parsed data. Data is extracted from the traffic log by applying a second regular expression to the parsed data according to the characterization of the extraction of data from the traffic log to generate extracted data.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2024Publication date: March 13, 2025Inventor: Francis Turner

Patent number: 9131804Abstract: A toaster comprises a housing, at least one spring-loaded bread tray, one or more heating elements, a bread tray retaining mechanism, a bread tray partial retaining mechanism, and a lifter arm slot. The bread tray is movable between an up position and a down position and is biased toward the up position. The bread tray retaining mechanism selectively retains the bread tray in the down position while the toasting operation is in progress and releases the bread tray from the down position when the toasting operation is complete. The bread tray partial retaining mechanism selectively retains the bread tray in a position between the down position and the up position after the bread tray is released by the bread tray retaining mechanism. In one embodiment, the lifter arm slot comprises an upper portion and a lower portion, the lower portion being wider than the upper portion.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2013Date of Patent: September 15, 2015Assignee: Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc.Inventors: Mark Francis Turner, Drew Carlson

Publication number: 20140246418Abstract: A toaster oven comprises a housing, an opening defined in the housing, and a door. The housing comprises an upper panel, a bottom panel, and opposing side panels together defining a food cavity. The door is movably affixed to the housing and selectively movable between a closed position closing off the opening thereby blocking access to the food cavity and an open position enabling access to the food cavity. The door has a front panel and opposing side panels. A portion of a front edge of at least one side panel of the housing is recessed back from the front panel of the door when the door is in the closed position. The recessed portion of the front edge of at least one side panel of the housing is enclosed by the corresponding side panel of the door when the door is in the closed position.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 1, 2013Publication date: September 4, 2014Applicant: Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc.Inventors: Guoyao Ye, Mark Francis Turner, Michael Garman, Mark K.

Patent number: 8192762Abstract: The present invention describes a method for synthesis of relatively low molecular weight imprinted polymers using living polymerization, and their application in analytical chemistry, pharmacology, medicine and the food industry. Specifically the low-molecular weight polymers are synthesized by the polymerization of functional monomers in the presence of a template, such as a biological receptor, enzyme, nucleic acid, cell, virus, microorganism, tissue sample or drug using living initiator. The conditions of living polymerization ensure a relatively small size of synthesized molecules. Synthesized in this way molecules (dimers, oligomers, polymers, or their mixture) have a higher affinity to the template than the original monomers and can rebind it in vitro and/or in vivo.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2006Date of Patent: June 5, 2012Assignee: Cranfield UniversityInventors: Khalku Karim, Sergey Anatoliyovich Piletsky, Olena Volodimirivna Piletska, Anthony Peter Francis Turner, Iva Chianella, Antonio Ricardo Leonardo Guerriero

Patent number: 8086415Abstract: A computer aided rational molecular design method that includes establishing a virtual library of functional monomers each having a portion that is capable of polymerizing and a functional group that is capable of interacting with a template molecule with the aid of a computer, designing a molecular model of a biological template molecule by a computer facilitated molecular mechanical method and screening said virtual library of functional monomers and selecting those monomers which have the highest binding score to the template molecule by their functional group.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2007Date of Patent: December 27, 2011Assignee: Cranfield UniversityInventors: Beining Chen, Richard Michael Day, Sreenath Subrahmanyam, Sergiy Anatoliyovich Piletsky, Olena Volodimirivna Piletska, Anthony Peter Francis Turner

Patent number: 7682836Abstract: A template (a molecule preferably of molecular size >500 Da, or a larger entity such as a cell, virus or tissue sample) is dissolved or suspended in a fluid. The fluid is frozen, and the template is removed (e.g. by dissolution or electrophoresis, or mechanically) to leave an “imprinted” frozen fluid. This is capable of selectively adsorbing the template substance. It is usable as a separation medium, a recognition element in sensors and assays, and as a catalyst.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2001Date of Patent: March 23, 2010Assignee: Cranfield UniversityInventors: Sergiy Anatoliyovich Piletsky, Olena Volodimirivna Piletska, Khalku Karim, Anthony Peter Francis Turner, Alessandra Bossi

Publication number: 20100000413Abstract: An air filtration device configured for operational association with an electrical outlet mounted on a wall includes a housing the defines a front surface, a rear surface and an air flow path therethrough. A cover is attached to the front surface of the housing in a spaced-apart relationship. The cover and the front surface of the housing define a slot. An impeller is provided for moving air through the air flow path. A motor drives the impeller. The motor and the impeller are supported within the housing. A tray is removably positionable within the slot.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2008Publication date: January 7, 2010Applicant: HAMILTON BEACH BRANDS, INC.Inventors: Mark Francis Turner, Martin Patrick Brady
