Abstract: A system and method for creating an interactive remote golf game can comprise a processor configured to launch an application on a client computer, receive account login information, communicate with a web database to verify login information, display dashboard information, receive information regarding existing and possible golf rounds, output information regarding currently playable rounds and tournaments, receive information from a user regarding a new golf round with a set of defined rules and options for play by multiple remote users, send data to the web database regarding new round and defined rules and options for additional players to access with other instances of the application.

Abstract: Electronic communications between a client device and a server device are improved by providing a middleware component that incorporates electronic data read and/or written to a database in a hybrid data structure. The hybrid structure is further designed to allow for “NULL” or other pre-defined data values when one or more data fields are unavailable or erroneous. The client device, in turn, can be configured to check for the pre-defined data values in certain fields and to gracefully process such values. The hybrid structure with pre-defined error values therefore provides for very efficient data transmittal and processing, while retaining the ability to handle errors or other unusual situations relating to the data.

Abstract: A computer program product for securely updating a website is installed on a computer, uses a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor, and may be used as a multi user, multi site, and multi project with varying per user permissions. A CMS stores the information in a database that can be displayed on a website, and is secured with a hashed password and content can be encrypted. The CMS can store miscellaneous language modes that are color coded such as PHP, JS, CSS, Java, and HTML. There are thus no passwords found in the website source files that make it possible to modify the database content. The security remains solely in the hands of the application and limits hacking. The program product is accessible from a computer-usable or computer-readable medium providing program code for use by or in connection with a computer or any instruction execution system.

Abstract: A cutting assembly for cutting a workpiece includes a frame, a fixture, and a saw. The fixture is coupled to the frame, and is configured to receive the workpiece. The saw has a cutter to cut the workpiece. The saw is pivotally coupled to the frame. The cutting assembly further includes a locking assembly for locking the workpiece within the fixture. The locking assembly includes a lock structure pivotally coupled to the fixture. The lock structure is configured to lock the workpiece within the fixture. The locking assembly further includes a telescopic structure coupled to the saw and the lock structure. The telescopic structure is configured to move the lock structure in response to a pivotal movement of the saw. The telescopic structure facilitates a locking, by the lock structure, of the workpiece within the fixture.

Abstract: A lifting tool for gripping an object, is provided. The lifting tool includes a body and a locking arrangement. The body defines a gripping cavity for receiving the object. The locking arrangement lock the object within the gripping cavity. The locking arrangement includes a shaft having an eccentric structure and a pin. The shaft and the eccentric structure are configured to rotate about a longitudinal axis. The pin is configured to engage with the eccentric structure and lock the object within the gripping cavity. The pin is biased in a first position, where a portion of the pin extends into the gripping cavity and locks the object within the gripping cavity.

Abstract: A BIST controller (112) and methodology uses the DRAM controller (108) refresh signals to test the data retention characteristics of a DRAM memory array (132). The BIST controller blocks a fraction of the refresh cycles generated by the DRAM controller to provide a margin of confidence above the DRAM's specified retention time. The BIST controller is especially suited to embedded applications in which access to the memory is indirect and to applications in which the memory system is modular. The invention may also be used to characterize the actual retention time of a particular DRAM allowing the system to optimize the DRAM's refresh interval.

Abstract: Novel mannanases may be derived from eg Bacillus subtilis strain 168 or may be encoded by polynucleotide molecules comprising a nucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. The mannanases are alkaline and are useful e.g. in cleaning compositions, for modifying plant material, and for treatment of cellulosic fibres.

Abstract: A method and system for performing memory repair via redundant rows of memory uses memory elements (208 and 210) for redundant row selection instead of conventional fuses. An on-chip test controller (110) is capable of testing memory rows (106) either at wafer probe, at final testing after manufacturing, or after memory chip packaging and/or final sale to end users. If this testing identifies faulty memory rows in the memory array at any time, the electrically programmable memory elements (208 and 210) can be internally re-programmed to create a new memory configuration which includes redundant memory rows (108). This new memory configuration is enabled in order to remove the newly-detected and previously-detected faulty memory rows from active memory in the memory array.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for allowing an integrated circuit to be hard-wired into one of a plurality of modes of operation by providing a plurality of mode bonding pads (104-108). Based upon customer demand, a reset post (102) or like external terminal of the integrated circuit is wire bonded or conductively coupled to only one of the plurality of mode pads (104-108). By bonding only one of the mode pads (104-108) to the reset pin, one of the plurality of distinct modes of operation is enabled upon reset.
