Abstract: Quality of a natural product, like beer, bread, wine and the like, is determined by many parameters. Process parameters that may be changed or not, external parameters and parameters of ingredients. With complex processes and many process steps, it is very difficult to relate parameters to quality—if possible at all. Data on process control, values of product and process related parameters and values that may be interpreted as indicative of quality, substances found in the product—either final or intermediate—and quantities thereof, other parameters or combinations thereof. Between values obtained for the parameters, relations may be determined that may be used for process optimisation. This may be executed for one or more process steps and for one or more parameters in the process and one or more quality parameters.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a balloon shaped to have one or more enlarged regions to selectively increase expansion forces on an implant. For example, the balloon may have a central portion that is enlarged to exert more force on the center of a stent-mounted prosthetic heart valve. This overcomes the stent-mounted prosthetic heart valve's tendency to expand with flared ends. This forms a more cylindrical or barrel shaped stent frame during expansion of the balloon—reducing or eliminating the instance wherein the cylindrical stent frame has flared ends. Alternatively, the balloon may have conical flares placed to cause or enhance flared ends of the cylindrical implant to enhance its anchoring capabilities.

The secondary condenser receives the second airflow and outputs a third airflow to the primary condenser. The primary condenser receives the third airflow and outputs a dehumidified airflow. The compressor receives a flow of refrigerant from the primary evaporator and provides the flow of refrigerant to the modulating valve. The modulating valve directs the flow of refrigerant to the primary condenser and to the alternate condenser. The alternate condenser receives a portion of the flow of refrigerant and transfers heat from the refrigerant to a flow of fluid.

Abstract: Methods and systems for existing software applications to automatically take advantage of multicore computer systems outside of the conventional simultaneous processing of multiple applications and without performance problems from cache misses and mismatched task processing times are presented. Unlike other multicore optimization techniques, the present invention uses techniques that are applied to design graphs and work for scaled and standard speedup-based parallel processing. The methods and systems optimize software designs that are attached to code for maximum performance on multicore computer hardware by analyzing and modifying loop structures to produce a general parallel solution, not just simple loop unrolling.
