  • Publication number: 20190126096
    Abstract: The present invention offers various advantages as it allows switching of the position of the valve to allow release of selective inhalation-air from the air-reservoir. This principle is utilized in restoring the blood flow, accelerate tissue regeneration, improve physical performance, improve fluid intelligence, disease avoidance, disease recovery. The apparatus is useful for athletes to do altitude contrast training.

  • Patent number: 9833643
    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for providing controlled flow of inhalation-air from at least an air-reservoir to a mask. The apparatus includes a control unit and a switch unit. The control unit controls the level of the inhalation-air flowing from the air-reservoir to the mask. The control unit includes a housing to receive the inhalation-air from the air-reservoir, plurality of ducts protruding from the housing to connect with the air-reservoir and with the mask and a valve configured to control the flow of inhalation-air from the plurality of ducts. The switch unit positions a valve to selectively open and close the plurality of ducts for regulating the flow of inhalation-air from the air-reservoir to the housing.

  • Patent number: 7814367
    Abstract: Method and system for allowing temporal navigation or time travel of data or data object across time are disclosed. In one embodiment, events that affected data objects are retrieved and inversed to revert the data objects back to a selected point-in-time, forward events are applied to move data objects to forward point-in-time. A sliding bar or a time dial allows a user to move data objects back and forward in time. Events that are applied may be a selected subset of events, altered events, new events, or events generated synthetically or any combinations thereof, for instance, to create counterfactual history.

  • Patent number: 6816872
    Abstract: Invention maintains duplicate files in safe places. A SCAN computer program creates a TOKEN Table of an earlier file. The TOKEN Table reflects the indices of successive segments of the file and the exclusive-or (XR) and Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) products of the characters in each segment. An updated file is compared to the earlier file by comparing the XR and CRC products of segments in the updated file to the XR and CRC products in the TOKEN Table. On detecting matching products for identical segments, the next segments are compared. On mismatch, the segment (window) for the updated file is bumped one character and new XR and CRC products generated and compared. The indices of the TOKEN Table and the offsets from the start of the file of the first characters of the updated file matching segments are set forth in a Match Table.

  • Patent number: 5893119
    Abstract: A computer apparatus and method for merging system deltas, and more particularly, to a computer apparatus and method for 1) merging a number of system deltas with a copy S of a system's files (primary input stream) to create a revised copy of a system's files (primary output stream), 2) merging a plurality of system deltas with one another to create a compiled system delta, 3) creating inverse system deltas, and 4) merging inverse system deltas as in 1) and 2), supra. The methods may be used to save, construct and/or retrieve current and historical system states. The apparatus and method may be used in conjunction with a computer backup process, version manager, or the like.

  • Patent number: 5745906
    Abstract: A computer apparatus and method for merging a sequential plurality of delta streams, wherein each delta stream represents a change to either a prior delta stream, an original data stream, or an updated data stream. The method and apparatus may be used to 1) merge a sequential plurality of delta streams with an original data stream to create an updated data stream, 2) merge a sequential plurality of delta streams to create a compiled delta stream, or 3) merge a sequential plurality of negative delta streams to retrieve a desired prior data stream. The method and apparatus may be used in conjunction with a computer backup process, version manager, or the like. In summary, a consumer process initiates a number of search requests, within a transaction chain corresponding to the sequential plurality of delta streams, for a number of data bytes to transfer to an updated data stream.
