  • Publication number: 20210251618
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device (D) for occluding atrial septal defect. Non-woven wires are introduced in one or more stages, with each stage interspaced with one or more braids and braided together with the wires from the woven centre and earlier stages to form the device (D). The transcatheter device (D) has two discs (101, 102) one a hub-less disc incorporating a woven central section on the left atrial side and the other disc on the right atrial side with a connecting neck (110) braided from wires. The device (D) has thrombogenic material in either discs (101, 102). A ridge (108) is configured on the periphery of either the left atrial disc or right atrial disc or both discs to improve structural stability of the device and provides enhanced elapsing force onto the septum reducing chances of migration.

  • Patent number: 9996408
    Abstract: A method and system for evaluating performance of software applications. Steps in a first software application within a first web site are mapped to respective similar-function steps in a second software application within a second web site. Measures of performance of: each mapped step in the first software application, the respective similar-function steps in the second software application, and other steps in the second application are determined. A measure of performance of the first software application is determined, based on the measures of performance of each mapped step in the first software application. A measure of performance of the second software application is determined, based on the measures of performance of the respective similar-function steps and the other steps in the second software application. Improved performance is obtained for the and/or first software application by utilizing the measure of performance of the first and/or second software application, respectively.

  • Patent number: 8086720
    Abstract: An example of a solution provided here comprises: collecting data from a plurality of probes, including at least one local probe and at least one remote probe; and reporting the data. For example, the reporting may comprise: reporting a first subset of the data that originated from a local probe; reporting a second subset of the data that originated from remote probes; and employing a similar reporting format for said first subset and said second subset. Thus comparison of data from a local probe and data from remote probes may be facilitated. Another example comprises: receiving data from at least one probe; comparing said data with at least one threshold value derived from a service level agreement; and outputting in a special mode any measured response time value that is greater than the corresponding threshold value.

  • Patent number: 7269651
    Abstract: An electronic business operations measurement system and method are provided. The system and method provide a measurement process in which a script is provided for execution by a first probe and a second probe in order to measure the performance of an application. The measurements of the first and second probes may then be mapped to threshold values. The first probe may execute the script on a first data processing device on which the application executes. The second probe may execute the script on a second data processing device remotely located from the first data processing device on which the application executes. The measurements of the performance performed by the second probe may be adjusted, through conversion of the measurement data using a conversion algorithm, to represent a type of network connection for communicating with the application that is common to end users of the application.

  • Patent number: 6832341
    Abstract: A method for monitoring faults within a computer network. In a preferred embodiment, an event, a host, and a fault monitoring point triplet are received from a monitored network device. A database of valid fault monitoring points is consulted to determine the validity of the event, host, and fault monitoring point triplet received. Responsive to a determination that the event, host, and fault monitoring point triplet received are valid, the appropriate party to notify and the appropriate message to send are determined. The appropriate party is then sent a message alerting them to the network problem. Different parties may be notified depending on the nature of the event or on the location of the event. Furthermore, a new network device may be added without taking down the fault monitoring system by merely adding to the database of valid fault monitoring points a new fault monitoring point corresponding to the added network device.
