Abstract: A shock control fairing for mounting a junction between adjoining aircraft surfaces. The fairing has a cross-sectional profile which varies along the length of the fairing. The cross-sectional profile of the fairing has a maximum area at a location which, when mounted to an aircraft, is substantially proximal to a location on the surface of the aircraft at which a shock would be expected to develop without the fairing.

Abstract: A system and method for generating a computer program call graph. A profiler may insert probes into a debuggee computer program, the probes generating call trace events. Checkpoints may be performed during execution of the debuggee program, so that a snapshot of the call stack is performed. Call trace events and checkpoint snapshots are logged and serialized. Logged call trace events and checkpoints may be retrieved and used in combination to generate a call graph and a shadow stack. Mechanisms facilitate combining the different sources of debuggee program information and determining whether the call graph and shadow stack are determinate or indeterminate at any time. The mechanisms may provide for improved accuracy of generated call graphs.

Abstract: Systems and methods for user-guided iterative node discovery and topology discovery in a network of nodes involved in secure and reliable data transfer.

Abstract: A system and method for facilitating analysis and modification of a computer program. A directed graph is generated from an intermediate language representation of a computer program function, with a node representing each instruction. Meta-edges or meta-nodes are inserted into the directed graph to facilitate location of instruction nodes. One type of meta-edge is a back edge that identifies branch instruction nodes. Some meta-nodes may identify instructions of a specific type. Some meta-nodes may identify exception blocks and corresponding handlers. Analysis of a program function may include insertion of new instructions prior to execution of the function.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the use of yeasts to produce spiroketal fragrance materials. The preferred yeasts used in the method of the invention are Bensingtonia ciliate and Cryptococcus laurentii.

Abstract: Compositions, kits and methods are provided for treating or preventing neurological disorders associated with aberrant silencing of gene expression by reestablishing the gene expression through inhibition of DNA methylation and/or histone deacetylase. The compositions and methods include administering to a patient suffering from the neurological disorder a therapeutically effective amount of a DNA methylation inhibitor, such as decitabine, preferably in combination with an effective amount of a histone deacetylase inhibitor. The compositions, kits and methods can be used to treat or present neurological disorders such as Lou Gehrig's disease, fragile X syndrome, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract: Methods are provided for treating patients with hematological disorders such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), and the myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). By administering a DNA methylation inhibitor to the patients following unique dosing regimens, the diseases can be efficaciously treated with reduced toxic side effects.

Abstract: A watertight connector for an RV sewer line and a conventional garden hose is provided to limit or prevent leakage when water from the garden hose is used to clean the sewer line. The connector comprises a cone, a threaded nut, a washer that forms a seal within the nut, a male fitting that fits over a female RV sewer line, and securing pins for securely attaching the male fitting to the sewer line. The nut may be a moveable swivel-type nut or may comprise the material tip of the cone. The user attaches the nut to the tip of a garden hose and the male fitting at the base of the cone to an RV sewer line and secures the fitting with the securing pins. Afterwards, the user turns on the garden hose, so that water from the hose cleans the sewer line without leaking from the connector.

Abstract: A particle detection system uses a reflective optic comprising a curved surface to detect high angle scattered light generated by a particle in a liquid medium, when a laser beam is incident on the particle. When the particles transit the laser beam, light is scattered in all directions and is described by MIE scattering theory for particles about the size of the wavelength of light and larger or Rayleigh Scattering when the particles are smaller than the wavelength of light. By using the reflective optic, the scattered light can be detected over angles that are greater than normally obtainable.

Abstract: Methods are provided for treating diseases associated with abnormal activity of kinases. The method comprises: administering a DNA methylation inhibitor to the patient in therapeutically effective amount; and administering a kinase inhibitor to the patient in therapeutically effective amount, such that the in vivo activity of the kinase is reduced relative to that prior to the treatment.
