  • Publication number: 20240095054
    Abstract: A disclosed event notification management method and service for use with a multi-node, hyper-converged infrastructure (HCl) cluster employs a service running on a corresponding node to monitor one or more parameters associated with event notifications sent to a cluster. The service may adjust a node's notification interval based on the monitored parameters. The parameters may include a last event notification successful (LENS) parameter indicating whether a recent notification was successful and a severity parameter determined based on an urgency type of a plurality of pending notifications within an event queue. The service may employ a first formula to decrease the notification interval following a successful previous notification and a second formula to increase the notification interval following an unsuccessful notification. The magnitude by which the notification interval is adjusted may be influenced by the severity parameter, e.g.

  • Publication number: 20240001215
    Abstract: An exercise promotion system includes a work environment providing device configured to provide a work environment for improving efficiency of work of a user, an exercise state detection unit configured to detect an exercise state of the user's lower limb, and a work environment change unit configured to change the work environment provided by the work environment providing device. The work environment change unit changes the work environment so that the work environment deteriorates when the exercise state detected by the working state detection unit does not meet a predetermined reference.

  • Patent number: 7027441
    Abstract: An indexing method for mapping multiple segments of coded fields in a table structure. The indexing method can complete resolving address mapping within a short delay, and has a collision-free characteristic when total bit-width of variation for coded fields is the same as the bit-width of the table. The method can be used to resolve Virtual Path Identifier/ Virtual Channel Identifier (VPI/VCI) mapping for Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) technologies.

  • Patent number: 5695946
    Abstract: An assay method is provided to easily and quickly detect the presence of organisms capable of being cultured, such as bacteria, characterized by antibody capture of the organism of interest by use of specialized magnetic beads, incubation of the captured cells to form colonies; removal of material from the colonies with a colony lift membrane; and detection of the colony material on the membrane sheet by use of labeled antibodies, PCR or nucleic acid probes.
