  • METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR TOOLING IN LAYERED STRUCTURES FOR INCREASED JOINT PERFORMANCE
    Publication number: 20240131754
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for tooling in layered structures for increased joint performance are disclosed. A disclosed example method includes placing a tool onto a first substrate to define an impression in the first substrate, curing the first substrate, removing the tool from the first substrate to define a joint interface corresponding to the impression, and coupling, at the joint interface, the first substrate to a second substrate.

  • Restoring a file to its proper storage tier in an information lifecycle management environment
    Patent number: 8229897
    Abstract: A technique for implementing policy-aware backup and restore capability in a tiered storage system. If a data set's contents are backed up from the tiered storage system to a backup storage system, metadata for the data set may also be backed up. Prior to the data set being restored from the backup storage system to the tiered storage system, the backed up metadata is restored and processed to determine a tier among the tiered storage pools to which the data set will be restored.

  • Clock gene and methods of use thereof
    Patent number: 6476188
    Abstract: The present invention discloses the identity of the first enzyme that has been demonstrated to be involved in maintaining circadian rhythms. This enzyme, the Drosophila DOUBLETIME protein is also shown to be an ortholog of human casein kinase-1&egr;. In addition, a variant of this enzyme is shown to be cause of the hamster tau mutant phenotype. Thus the present invention also relates to variants of DOUBLETIME, and their nucleic acid and amino acid sequences. The present invention further provides methods of using these variants in drug assays and diagnostics.
