Abstract: A replacement part for replacing an original mechanical machine part having has an original mechanical configuration with original part descriptive data is made by first receiving performance data obtained by monitoring the machine during operation with the original machine part with one or more sensors and then sending the performance data to a modeling server. The modeling server then calculates multiple optimized mechanical configurations of the replacement part with one or more modeling algorithms based on different optimization criteria using at least the original part descriptive data and the received performance data. Then a selection of several performance options representing the multiple mechanical configurations of the replacement part are provided, one of which is selected by a user.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for snapshot management in a storage infrastructure. A computer accesses a first snapshot captured in a first layer of the storage infrastructure. The computer accesses a second snapshot captured in a second layer of the storage infrastructure. The computer produces a determination that the first snapshot in the first layer of the storage infrastructure is one or more of: inconsistent with the second snapshot in the second layer of the storage infrastructure and a duplicate of the second snapshot in the second layer of the storage infrastructure. The computer removes the first snapshot in the first layer of storage infrastructure responsive to the determination.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for snapshot management in a storage infrastructure. A computer identifies one or more snapshots within layers of the storage infrastructure. The computer determines one or more relationships of the one or more identified snapshots of the storage infrastructure. The determined relationships include, at least in part, relations of one or more entities included in the one or more snapshots to additional one or more entities in the one or more snapshots of the storage infrastructure. The computer identifies the one or more duplicate snapshots by utilizing the one or more determined relationships of the one or more identified snapshots. The computer consolidates the one or more identified duplicate snapshots in the storage infrastructure. In another embodiment, the computer identifies one or more inconsistent snapshots, and consolidates the one or more inconsistent snapshots in the storage infrastructure.

Abstract: An end-to-end mapping from a file system of an operating system running on a virtual machine to a storage volume of a SAN is determined. The virtual machine reported by the operating system is mapped to a definition of the virtual machine as provided by a management component managing the virtual machine. A storage device reported by the operating system is mapped to a definition of a virtual storage device as provided by the management component, such as by using a SCSI controller number and target identifier of the virtual machine storage device to correlate the virtual machine storage device to the definition. The definition of the virtual storage device is mapped to a storage device on a physical computing device on which the management component and the virtual machine are running. The storage device on the physical computing device is mapped to the storage volume of the SAN.

Abstract: An arrangement for handling a paper, cardboard, tissue or other fibrous-material web in a machine for producing and/or finishing the same, includes an endlessly circulating belt of high flexural rigidity which wraps around a rotatably mounted control roller with an angle of wrap, wherein at least one end of the control roller is displaceably mounted along an adjusting zone for setting the belt tension. The arrangement of the present invention provides an improved running of the belt and the lateral stress of the belt is minimized by the angle of wrap lying between 90° and 180° and the adjusting direction of the control roller lying approximately perpendicular to the bisector of the angle of wrap.

Abstract: A method for analyzing a liquid test sample by electrochemiluminescence. The method includes at least one specific biochemical binding reaction that leads to the formation of a complex which contains a chemiluminescence marker and the binding of the complex to a magnetic microparticle. Detection is carried out in a measuring cell having a working electrode in order to determine the concentration of the marked microparticle. The detection cycle includes a purification step, a conditioning step, a recovery step and a measuring step. A specified potential profile is applied to the working electrode during these steps. Between the conditioning step and the recovery step, an additional potential pulse with an oxidizing and/or a reducing potential is inserted into the voltage shape of the detection cycle in order to improve the deposit of the microparticle.
