Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and method for improving data deduplication for eventual consistent for distributed storage systems. Eventual consistency poses significant challenges for deduplication systems. This is because data storage is often spread over many different notes and up-to-date data may not always be available. A significant component of deduplication is creating pointers to older copies of identical data and deleting the later copy. In a basic implementation, this creates an eventually consistent vulnerability. If an older copy of the pointers to the data is retrieved (in the form of a metadata file), it may be pointing to a copy of the data that is no longer available. The present system and method solves the problem with eventual consistency vulnerabilities by introducing a level of indirection and creating manifest files for each file (vessel).

Abstract: Modular eye protection may include a frame, temples, and a frame, which may comprise temples and a top bar. The modular eye protection may also include a modular headband with a forehead pad, lens, and elastic band. Both embodiments of the modular eye protection may be assembled with eye shield lenses or face shields lenses. Dispensing units may also dispense the various components of the modular eye protection. The modular nature, method of assembly, and dispensers allow for minimal physical contact with objects, mitigating contact with pathogens in areas such as surgical rooms where cleanliness is important. The modular eye protection may also be disposable to further prevent spreading of pathogens.

Abstract: A machine for making sheaths for use with medical and dental instruments includes a web attachment station for forming a multilayer material by arranging multiple webs of material with respect to one another. A configuration sealing station receives the multilayer material and seals at least two of the multiple webs of material to form a sealed multilayer material including a number of pockets corresponding to the shape of the medical or dental instrument. A material removal station receives the sealed multilayer material and removes an intermediate material, which may be disposed of and recycled at a recycling station.
