Abstract: Embodiments determine evaluation data from at least one message queue, determine a targeted number of messages included in the at least one message queue and a confidence value by using a trained machine learning model with the evaluation data, determine that the confidence value is greater than a predetermined threshold, perform synchronous message restoration based on the targeted number of messages and the confidence value being greater than the predetermined threshold, and perform remaining system restart functions in response to the synchronous message restoration being completed.

Abstract: Managing message storage residency on queues is provided. An evaluation of usage patterns, factors, and message processing environment data corresponding to each respective queue of a set of queues in main memory is performed. One or more contiguous groups of messages are moved between physical storage mediums by performing at least one of message sweeping and message unsweeping to adjust a size of at least one message region of one or more queues of the set of queues in response to determining that movement of the one or more contiguous groups of messages between the physical storage mediums is needed based on the evaluation.

Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment there is presented a formulation that is topically applied to the outer jawline and neck skin to improve the appearance of the skin by repairing or concealing age-related skin effects, such as wrinkles, improving skin tone by reducing stretching and sagging of the skin, adding moisture to reduce skin dryness, and adding an appearance of brightness. An exemplary embodiment of the formulation includes a blend of oligosaccharides, medium chain triglycerides, peptides, silanol, and diglucosyl gallic acid, all provided in a viscous liquid emulsion base for ease of dispensing from a pump dispenser.

Abstract: A method includes accessing genomic data of from a genomic database; generating, by a processor, a first hash by probabilistically and irreversibly encrypting a first portion of the genomic data encoding the first genomic sequence, the first hash projecting the first portion into reduced dimensions such that the first portion of the genomic data encoding the first genomic sequence becomes statistically improbable to recover outside the first processor; generating, by the processor, a first cryptogram by deterministically and reversibly encrypting a second portion of the genomic data encoding the first genomic sequence; generating, by the processor, a look-up table by using at least the first cryptogram as a key and the first portion of the genomic data encoding the first genomic sequence as the value, and transmitting data encoding the first hash and the first cryptogram to one or more processors that are different from the first processor.

Abstract: Human decision-making is enhanced by defining decision criteria, then presenting data responsive to the criteria in a manner that is optimized based on the neuroscience of human information processing. For example, data is displayed in a uniform format along with a list of criteria; data responsive to a selected criterion is highlighted as hot data; and a scoring window is displayed for a user to score the conformance of the hot data to the selected criterion.

Abstract: A diagnostic tool for speech recognition applications is provided, which enables a administrator to collect multiple recorded speech sessions. The administrator can then search for various failure points common to one or more of the recorded sessions in order to get a list of all sessions that have the same failure points. The invention allows the administrator to playback the session or replay any portion of the session to see the flow of the application and the recorded utterances. The invention provides the administrator with information about how to maximize the efficiency of the application which enables the administrator to edit the application to avoid future failure points.

Abstract: A spinal fixation system having a modular construction to allow universal application to varying spine anatomy and load requirements of individual vertebral attachment members, while reducing requirements for large inventories to optimize spinal fixation. Modularity allows the individual attachment members, once attached optimally to bone, to be attached to a variety of interconnecting structural members optimized for load carrying capacity.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for making a dimensionally stable wood-thermoplastic composite material composed of a wood component and a thermoplastic component comprising the steps of forming a wood-thermoplastic mass at a temperature above the melting temperature of the thermoplastic component. The mass is then passed through a converging die to form a shaped extrudate profile having a cross sectional shape wherein at least a part of the converging die is maintained at a substantially higher temperature than that of the mass. The profile is then fed through a low friction thermally insulating land section, the land section having the substantially the same cross sectional shape as the exit end of the converging die. The profile is then quenched in a non-oxidizing environment to form a substantially dimensionally stable outer shell around the profile, the shell having a temperature below the melting temperature of the thermoplastic component.

Abstract: A trim panel having an integral handle is made using a subassembly comprising a structural substrate that has a handle hole and a handle frame that spans the handle hole. The subassembly is mounted on a pneumatic buck and a sheet of pliable and stretchable expanded vinyl plastic is then draped over the subassembly to form a decorative cover for the trim panel. The plastic sheet is then vacuum drawn against the top of the subassembly and partially around the handle frame. Draped portions of the plastic sheet between the handle frame and the handle hole, are then cut and trimmed, to complete the wrapping of the handle frame and the edge of the handle hole. The cut ends of the draped portions wrapped around the handle frame are tucked in a longitudinal slot in the underside of the handle frame.

Abstract: A cover for an article of furniture such as an umbrella table assembly or a chaise lounge, provides improved drainage. A portion of the cover associated with an umbrella pole is releasably secured to the pole and maintained in elevated position by the pole to provide a tent-like structure, which includes an annular peripheral skirt depending below the table top. Releasable fasteners for securing a cover to an article secure the cover on the article after the cover has been positioned on the article. The cover extends from the elevated portion at a first angle towards the table top. The cover is manufactured to provide surfaces that are inclined at an angle greater than the first angle when the cover is installed, so that the cover better sheds water and other debris.
