Abstract: A tool that outputs workflows for target computing devices receives user input selecting one or more Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), a plurality of workflow activities, each of which define actions that are to be performed by the target computing device, and an application framework. Based on these selections, the tool compiles the workflow activities for execution on the target computing device based on the first application framework selected by the user, and generates a workflow activity package to comprise the compiled plurality of workflow activities. If the selected application framework is not compatible with the execution environment at the target device, the tool allows the user to select a different application framework to replace the initially selected application framework, and to re-compile the workflow activities based on the newly selected application framework.

Abstract: Improved dental porcelain compositions and resultant fused porcelain dental restorations are provided which exhibit enhanced strength properties as compared with conventional porcelains. The fiber-filled porcelain compositions of the invention are supplemented with zirconium oxide ceramic fibers in relatively minor amounts of less than 5% by weight. The reinforcing fibers are advantageously predominantly zirconium oxide, and have a relatively short average length of from about 1/32 to 1/4 of an inch. These fibers are normally randomly oriented and homogeneously dispersed throughout the fiber-filled porcelain composition, in order to give a reinforcing fiber network. A completed restoration in accordance with the invention would typically include a core portion formed of the fiber filled porcelain, with the outer portion of the restoration being fabricated from conventional non-fiber reinforced porcelain.
