Abstract: A product-display system for displaying and securing a retail product. The system may include a retainer having a retainer bracket and a retainer body coupled to the retainer bracket. A retaining cable may be coupled to the retainer body at an opening in the retainer body. A fastener that may be unfastened to release the product from the retainer may only be accessed through the opening of the retainer body such that when the retaining cable is coupled to the opening, no fasteners of the retainer may be visible or accessible. The system may also include a display stem for holding the retainer and product. The display stem may include a recess for receiving at least a portion of the retainer body. The retaining cable may extend through the display stem and may simultaneously transmit power and data to a displayed product. The retainer may be returned to and held on top of the display stem using a retaining cable.

Abstract: A client-server software performance monitor system is disclosed. In the system of the present invention, a performance monitor machine is coupled to a computer network in close network proximity to one or more server systems that are to be monitored. The performance monitor machine monitors all network communication originating from or addressed to the server system to determine client-server transaction times. The performance monitor machine calculates a server processing time by subtracting the time when the server system receives the request packet from a client system from the time when the server system sends the first response packet back to the client system. The performance monitor machine also calculates an network transit time by subtracting said time when the server system receives the final acknowledgement packet from the time when said server system sent the first response packet to the client system.
