Patent number: 7870535Abstract: A system and a method for developing Internet-hosted business applications composed of web services and software for use in such environments where applications and application components interoperate to perform requested business functions. The system and method of the present invention utilize a software development application services provider module (DASP), an Instantiatior module, a Builder module, an Applications Service Provider (ASP) Infrastructure Platform (AIP) module, and a hosted production environment module. The system and method of the present invention seeks to maximize the use of prior work to eliminate repetition and reduce development cost and development time. With each new project the library and experience increases.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2002Date of Patent: January 11, 2011Assignee: Accenture Global Services GmbHInventors: Donald J.

Patent number: 4806467Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of detecting either antibody or antigen in the serum of horses infected with equine infectious anemia using a competitive enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay technique and reagents useful in such an assay. The competitive enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay incorporates a purified virus antigen conjugate and a monoclonal antibody specific for the virus antigen as both the reacting and competing components. Alternatively, the competitive enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay incorporates a purified virus antigen and a monoclonal antibody conjugate specific for the viral antigen as both reacting and competing components. This invention also relates to detecting antigen and antibody found in other retrovirus infections such as Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome in humans.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 1985Date of Patent: February 21, 1989Assignee: Fermenta Animal Health CompanyInventors: James P.
