  • Publication number: 20230224213
    Abstract: In various embodiments systems and methods for managing a network switch, such as for a VLAN is disclosed. In one example, a method includes responsive to a restart of a port of a network switch, obtaining by the network switch a current policy applied to the port, determining based on a parameter associated with the current policy, to apply a default policy to the port, determining a new policy for the port by: obtaining an identifier for a device associated with the port, obtaining a key based on the identifier, the key associated with a plurality of devices of the same type as the device, and determining the new policy for the port using an association between the key and the new policy stored locally at the network switch, and applying the new policy to the port.

  • Patent number: 7008167
    Abstract: A fork positioner for a forklift truck has power-actuated yokes, each having a base from which a pair of transversely spaced legs depend, for engaging respective load lifting forks and adjusting their spacing transversely along a fork-supporting member. Each of the yokes is selectively movable between a fork-engaging position and a fork-disengaging position, the latter position permitting the fork to be lifted upwardly off of the fork-supporting member for easy replacement of the fork.

  • Patent number: 6011563
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for optimizing a laser light fractionation during photodynamic therapy of a tumor. The tumor is destroyed through the production of singlet oxygen and successful photodynamic therapy treatment requires the maintenance of tumor oxygen above a specified critical level. Depending on the tumor, the photosensitizer concentration, and the laser fluence, sustained irradiation of the tumor will deplete the oxygen below the critical level. When the laser is turned off, oxygen diffuses into the tumor to provide sustained levels of singlet oxygen. The control system controls the operation cycle of the laser and the various surgical parameters. Data regarding the sensitizer, the laser characteristics, and the oxygen features of the tumor are input into the control system for simulation of the PDT treatment. As part of the simulation, the optimal fractionation cycle for the laser is predicted. The data may be adjusted for conducting additional simulations.
