Abstract: A system and method for determining media to be exported out of a media library is described. In some examples, the system determines a media component to be exported, determines the media component is in the media library for a specific process, and exports the media component after the process is completed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for allocating transmission resources within a computer network are provided. In some embodiments of the invention, communication links may be assigned based on predefined preferences or system configuration to facilitate the transfer of data from one point in the network to another. In other embodiments, system operation may be monitored and communication paths be assigned dynamically based on this information to improve system operation and provide improved failover response, load balancing and to promote robust data access via alternative routes.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for pooling storage devices in a virtual library for performing a storage operation. A storage management device determines a storage characteristic of a plurality of storage devices with respect to performing a storage operation. Based on a storage characteristic relating to performing the storage operation, the storage management device associates at least two storage devices in a virtual library. The storage management device may continuously monitor the virtual library and detect a change in storage characteristics of the storage devices. When changes in storage characteristics are detected, the storage management device may change associations of the storage device in the virtual library.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to controlling access to a storage device. In a three-tier storage system including a storage manager, media management devices and storage devices, access to a storage device containing a robotic arm is dynamically assignable to one or more media management devices in accordance with user preferences, storage policies or other logical bases, such as network efficiency or availability. The invention also provides a computerized method for assigning control of a robotic arm to one or more media management devices.

Abstract: A label product includes a first backing substrate, a plurality of second backing substrates adhesively and repositionably attached to the first backing substrate, and a plurality of labels adhesively and repositionably attached to each second backing substrate. Each second backing substrate has opposite first and second side faces. The first side face of each second backing substrate is coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive layer attached to the first backing substrate. Each label has a side face that is coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive layer attached to the second side face of a respective second backing substrate.

Abstract: An adhesive pad includes a substrate, a releaseable first adhesive layer disposed on one side of the substrate and having a first degree of tackiness, a first piece of release paper overlying the first adhesive layer, a display layer bonded adhesively to the other side of the substrate, a releaseable second adhesive layer disposed on the display layer and having a second degree of tackiness which is lower than the first degree of tackiness, and a second piece of release paper covering the second adhesive layer.

Abstract: A stack of self-stick writing notes includes a plurality of self-stick writing sheets, each of which has a layer of removable pressure sensitive adhesive. The writing sheets are disposed one above the other to form a stack. A plastic sheet is attached to a bottom of the stack. Each of a plurality of labeling tabs includes a layer of removable pressure sensitive adhesive attached to the plastic sheet.

Abstract: The invention relates to a safety control shut-off device for the heating element of a cooking stove. In one embodiment of this safety device, a burner plate of the stove is provided with several declining U-shaped grooves for collecting any spillage or overflow of water from the cooking operations. Water drops collected in the declining grooves are led through a discharge outlet, at the lowest portion of the grooves, and into a water drop detector located beneath the outlet, to complete an electrical circuit, which in turn will actuate and sound an alarm and will also actuate means for disconnecting the fuel source of the plate burner.
