Patent number: 9128777Abstract: A method of operating a cluster of machines includes receiving a request for a disruption, determining a subset of machines of the cluster affected by the requested disruption, and determining a set of jobs having corresponding tasks on the affected machines. The method also includes computing a drain time for a drain that drains the tasks of the jobs from the affected machines, and scheduling on a drain calendar stored in non-transitory memory a drain interval for the drain. The drain interval has a start time and an end time. A maintenance system that includes a scheduler may execute such a method to maintain a cluster of machines.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2013Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Michael DeRosa, Brian McBarron, Brian Neil Makin, Hal Joseph Burch

Publication number: 20120003303Abstract: Pharmaceutical presentations of phenoxathiin-based MAO-A inhibitors are disclosed whereby the MAO receptors are protected from binding to active ingredient in the stomach. Particular phenoxathiin-based MAO-A inhibitors include those of the following formula: (I) wherein n is 0, 1 or 2; R1 is a branched or straight chain C1-5 alkyl or C3-6 cycloalkyl optionally substituted with hydroxyl, or one or more halogens; and X1, X2, X3, X4, and X5 are either all hydrogens or one or two of X1, X2, X3, X4, and X5 are halogen and the remainder are hydrogens, with the proviso that when n is 0 or 1 and each X is hydrogen, R1 is not methyl. A wide variety of enteric mechanisms may be utilized so as to provide release of the active ingredient essentially out of the environment of the stomach after ingestion as a pharmaceutical presentation, such as a tablet or capsule. Presentations include enteric coated tablets, enteric coated capsules, capsules containing enteric coated beads.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 8, 2010Publication date: January 5, 2012Applicant: CeNeRx Biopharma, IncInventors: Barry Scott Brand, James Cecil Free, Daniel Joseph Burch, Mark Joseph Baric

Patent number: 7356689Abstract: A method for tracing packets in a communications network directed to tracing a stream of anonymous packets received at a given target host, in order to identify their source, in response, for example, to a Denial-of-Service (“DoS”) attack on the target host. Advantageously, the tracing is performed without reliance on knowledge or cooperation from intervening Internet Service Providers (ISPs) along the path. The method is performed by applying a “burst load” (i.e., a brief but heavy load of transmitted packets) to various elements (i.e., links or routers) in the network and measuring the change in the rate with which the stream of packets arrive at the target. If the rate is substantially altered upon introduction of the burst load, then it may be deduced that the given element is most likely on the path from the source host of the DoS attack to the target host.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2001Date of Patent: April 8, 2008Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Hal Joseph Burch, William R Cheswick

Patent number: 7299489Abstract: A method and apparatus for analyzing the perimeter security of communications networks. More particularly, information is identified which defines a particular communications network, e.g., an intranet, and identifying the connected hosts thereto. Utilizing such information, a determination is made with respect to identifying the routes that define the network. Utilizing the routing information, the connectivity of the hosts within the network, e.g., an intranet, is probed to ascertain the integrity of the network and thereby identifying potential security risks across the perimeter defense of the network.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2000Date of Patent: November 20, 2007Assignee: Lucent Technologies Inc.Inventors: Steven Branigan, Hal Joseph Burch, William R.
