Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for delivering delta radiation using prompt neutron capture gamma radiation are disclosed herein. In one aspect, a device for delivering delta radiation can include a neutron generator, an electron emitter, and an irradiation target. The neutron generator may be configured to generate a neutron flux field. The an irradiation target can include an irradiation target material having a high thermal neutron cross section and can be configured to emit gamma radiation in response to exposure to the neutron flux field. The electron emitter can be configured to emit delta radiation in response to exposure to the gamma radiation. In some aspects, the irradiation target and the electron emitter can be configured to be positioned between the neutron generator and a surface of an object to deliver the delta radiation to a target region within the object.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring hosts and storage devices in a storage system includes a memory containing machine readable medium comprising machine executable code having stored thereon instructions for performing a method of managing application performance and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to execute the machine executable code to detect a first datasource for a storage device, determine one or more first storage identifiers associated with the storage device, record the first storage identifiers, detect a second datasource for a compute resource, determine a file system used by the compute resource, determine a second storage identifier associated with the file system, and in response to determining that the second storage identifier matches one of the first storage identifiers, record a first association between the file system and the compute resource and record a second association between the file system and the storage device.

Abstract: Methods and systems for collecting and processing quality of service (QOS) data are provided. A collection module receives the QOS data from a storage operating system for a plurality of storage volumes at time t2, when a process for collecting the QOS data began at time t1 such that t2>t1. The collection module estimates a QOS data value for time t1 and provides the estimated QOS data value to a performance manager that uses the estimated QOS data value for monitoring QOS for the plurality of storage volumes using a plurality of resources for processing input/output (I/O) requests.

Abstract: An electronic battery tester for testing a storage battery including electrical connectors configured to couple to the storage battery. Measurement circuitry is coupled to the electrical connectors and a display is configured to display information to an operator. A manual input is configured to receive an input from a user. A microprocessor is coupled to the measurement circuitry and is configured to perform a battery test on the storage battery as a function of a battery parameter measured with the measurement circuitry. The microprocessor is configured to display characters and receive a character select input from the manual input which identifies one character of a plurality of characters displayed on the display. In another aspect, a forcing function is coupled to the battery and has first and second selectable frequencies. The microprocessor is configured to select between the first frequency and the second frequency.
