Abstract: A single-acting, full return clamp (10) holds first and second objects, such as mold portions, in a compressive clamping relationship. A body (12), for attachment to the first object, has a housing (22) with first and second end plates (16, 18). A shaft (26) moves axially in the body and rotates about an axis of the body. A shaft end (32) outside of the housing bears against the second object in a first condition and disengages from the second object in a second condition, where the shaft end is lifts away from the body, and rotates relative to the axis. A spring (40) in the housing applies compressive force on the shaft in the first condition. A piston (74), in the housing near the first end plate when the device is in the first condition, moves axially against the spring force to move the shaft while in the second condition.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for determining a minimum set of permissions for a software component. A first set of minimum permissions is determined for proper execution of the software component. The first set designates one or more permissions. Determining the first set includes performing iterative testing to determine whether one or more user permissions are included in the first set by only disabling one of the user permissions on an iteration. Verification processing may be performed in which a second set of minimum permissions is determined and the first set may be compared to the second set to determine whether the first set is equivalent to the second set.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for detecting injection vulnerabilities associated with a database query. An initial set of input data including one or more data items is received. A database query is in accordance with the initial set of input data. A detector determines whether one of the data items included in the initial set of input data is associated with an unexpected event by analyzing trace output generated as a result of operations executed in connection with performing the database query.

Abstract: A program product and method is disclosed that rely on user interaction in the ordering of search results returned by a search engine. Each of a plurality of records in a database is associated with a user-interaction parameter that is associated with the duration of time that a user accesses a particular record of the search result. Provided that the duration of time that the user accesses the record is greater than a predetermined relevant time period, the user-interaction parameter is weighted to increase the relevance of this record in relation to records that did were not accessed for the relevant time period used in ordering the records identified in a result set generated in response to a search request.
