Abstract: Dynamic filtering methods, systems and computer program products are provided for network performance test results which may apply network troubleshooting expertise and knowledge of network topology to select and display test results in a manner which may facilitate analysis of those results by IT staffs. In a further aspect of the present invention, a severity index is provided which may be generated based on exception events from a plurality of network performance measurements, for example, response time, throughput and availability, which measurements are generated from test results obtained from agents located on various devices on a computer network. The test results may be obtained from either passive application monitor agents or active network test agents.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) for forming a single extrudable food stream such as a cooked cereal dough into a plurality of differently colored and/or flavored dough streams is disclosed including an extruder having screw augers in a main passageway for advancing a plastic food mass, a device for dividing the plastic food mass into a plurality of substreams such as a branching passageway section in fluid communication with a plurality of sub-divided dough passageways, and a die head having a plurality of die ports for each subpassageway. Each subpassageway has a separate conduit for supplying an additive and has disposed therein a multiplicity of in-line static mixer elements to admix the additive into the substreams of the plastic food mass before passage through the die ports.
