Abstract: A system and method are provided for securely sharing storage resources in a storage network. One or more organizations are modeled in a structure where each organization includes one or more units. Users are assigned to a unit and are also assigned a command access level. The command access level grants access to certain management commands that may be performed on storage resources. Storage resources are then bound to units in the organization and may be accessed by users in the unit. Once command access levels are assigned and storage resources are bound, access for a user in the unit is restricted to the command access level assigned to the user and the storage resources bound to the user's unit. When a command from a user is received, the command access level of the user and the bound storage resources for the unit of the user is determined. Then, a management command is performed using the bound storage for the user's unit if the command is available for the command access level.

Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting fraud based on velocity counts are disclosed.

Abstract: A dog litter glove or mitten for collecting dog litter comprising: a hand section; a closure mechanism at an open end of the glove; and an elongated midsection, where said midsection extends down from the hand section and abuts a cuff section, where said cuff section includes a width greater than the width of the midsection. The closure mechanism may include at least one of a zip lock seal and a twist tie. The cuff of the dog litter glove may be rolled up to turn the glove inside out to create a sealed flexible container for the dog litter disposable.

Abstract: In a storage server on a storage area network, a media unit manager manages disk space in a manner transparent to the host computers. The media unit manager uses media units corresponding to the physical storage devices on the storage area network to build higher-level media units. The higher level media units can have the attributes of being sliced, concatenated, mirrored, striped, etc. Thus, the host computers need not be aware of the specific physical storage devices themselves, reducing the management and reconfiguration burden on the host computers when storage devices are added to or removed from the storage area network.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses to enable the development, deployment and update of composite applications on mobile devices. In one embodiment, a method processor in a mobile device may include a workflow engine and a cache manager which looks ahead of the current execution of a workflow to preload modules. The method processor may present modal user interfaces in a non-modal way to eliminate flicker, and use a logger to stamp the workflow related data with real time measurements, such as time, location, and vehicle bus information. The logger may capture screen images and global data of the workflow during the execution. The log data stream may be collected and sent from the mobile device in real time, or in a batch mode, for monitoring, debugging, diagnosing or tuning the execution of a workflow, for providing hot update, help and guidance against deviation during the execution, and for other features.

Abstract: A storage provisioning policy is created by specifying storage heuristics for storage attributes using storage heuristic metadata. Storage attributes characterize a storage device and storage heuristic metadata describe how to specify a storage heuristic. Using the storage heuristic metadata, storage heuristics are defined to express a rule or constraint as a function of a storage attribute. In addition, the storage provisioning policy may also specify mapping rules for exporting the storage to a consumer of the storage, such as the server or server cluster.

Abstract: A cable passing apparatus useful in passing a cable around a bone. The cable is used to repair broken bone during an orthopaedic surgery. The cable passer comprises a cannulated internal assembly that is extendable at least partially around a bone. A cable suitable for surgical applications can be threaded through the apparatus and removed as desired.
