Abstract: The invention, which may be a kind of annotations processor, detects zero or more tagsets turned on or selected at runtime. The annotations adapter reads an abstract unit from a java file, and if an annotation of the abstract unit has a tag that is among the tags of a turned on tagset, then the annotations adapter may generate an artifact showing the influence of the annotation. Such a process may continue until there are no more abstract units to process. Comments or annotations that fail to be tagged with a tag of a selected tagset may, nevertheless, be mentioned with a kind of ‘place-holder’ indicating that such comments exist.

Abstract: A dioramic apparatus includes a vessel having an inferior portion and a superior portion. The vessel includes a shell and defines an interior space. The interior space is partially filled by a liquid medium. At least one dioramic scene is disposed in the interior space. A reservoir is in fluid communication with the interior space. The reservoir includes a flow plate defining at least one liquid intake and at least one liquid output port. The at least one liquid intake is configured and arranged for receiving at least a portion of the liquid medium from the interior space when the dioramic apparatus is at least partially inverted. The at least one liquid output port is configured and arranged to output at least a portion of the liquid medium from the reservoir when the vessel is placed in an upright position.

Abstract: Fluid transfer devices for use in, for example, ambulatory infusion devices, and infusions devices including such fluid transfer devices. The fluid transfer devices may include an external housing tube, an internal housing tube that has a piston lumen with a pump chamber, an outer surface, and a bypass aperture with an inlet associated with the pump chamber and an outlet adjacent to the outer surface, a bypass channel in fluid communication with the bypass aperture outlet, a resilient valve member associated with the bypass aperture outlet, and a piston carried within the piston lumen.

Abstract: Implantable infusion apparatus, systems and methods that involve the use of a sensor that is associated with the catheter outlet.

Abstract: A compact narrow band imaging system includes a vapor cell having a gas that receives and transmits light in accordance with the Faraday effect. A magnetic source is provided for applying a magnetic field to the vapor cell. Crossed polarizers are disposed before and after the vapor cell creating a Faraday optical filter. The only light that passes through the filter is light within a narrow band near the absorption peaks of the vapor. Other optical elements of the imaging system including filters, image detectors, electron multipliers, signal digitizers, and heat filters are co-located within the imaging system's common thermal isolation container to provide improved performance. The compact system is suitable for wide area surveillance, including daylight surveillance for combustion sources such as forest fires and missile exhaust.

Abstract: An automotive vehicle composite body structure includes a composite floor pan having a floor, first and second walls, side walls, and a first raised section located in the floor. The body structure also includes a composite frame coupled to the floor pan having a roof frame member and elongated first, second, and third support members.

Abstract: An automotive vehicular structure includes a composite roof frame and elongated composite support members extending from the roof frame. The support members may be integral to the roof frame as a single piece. A method of assembling a vehicle is also provided.

Abstract: An automotive vehicular structure includes a composite first body side outer panel including a first connecting panel and a composite second body side outer panel and a second connecting panel. The second connecting panel is directly attached to the first connecting panel at a location between the first side panel and the second side panel. A method of assembling an automotive vehicle is also provided.

Abstract: Ambulatory infusion pumps, pump assemblies, cartridges, baseplates, cannulas, insertion tools, and related components as well as combinations thereof and related methods.

Abstract: A pulverizer 60 includes a spring assembly 10 that urges a grinding roller 72 of a journal assembly 68 onto a grinding surface 66 of a grinding table 64. The force applied is monitored by a load cell 32 located within spring assembly 10 that creates an electronic signal. A controller 83 receives the electronic signal and stores and/or displays it and alternatively acts to adjust the applied force to a desired value. Alternatively, adjustable forces or mechanical dampening may be applied to journal assembly 68 by controller 83. Alternatively, additional sensors may measure displacement of the journal assembly and rotation of the grinding table for other calculations.

Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for detecting an interaction, such as physical contact, with a touch-sensitive screen. The screen comprises a plurality of cells each associated with a signal value, such as a capacitance, that is modified based on the proximity of an object to the screen. During a first time interval, a first signal value associated with a cell is captured and during a second time interval a second signal value associated with the cell is captured. A difference is computed by subtracting the second signal value from the first signal value. The difference is used to classify the proximity of the object to the screen. For example, the object is classified as approaching the screen if the difference is positive and non-zero or the object is classified as moving away from the screen if the difference is negative and non-zero.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for defining queries in terms of data objects. A simplified query syntax is introduced for querying across a set of data objects which does not require the duplication of data object shape information. A data object is first defined by providing a name for the data object. Attribute and relationship information is added to the data object, wherein the information defines the shape of the data object. When a query is created, it is defined in terms of data objects. The query is processed, wherein processing the query includes extracting the shape of the data objects using the attribute information in the query. The query is expanded by adding additional syntax to the query based on relationship information defined for the data objects and then executed in its expanded form.
