  • Patent number: 11376185
    Abstract: A massage apparatus and a method of its use for massage of the human body are provided, the massage apparatus including a frame supporting opposingly-located first and second massage tools mounted thereon to define between them a massage gap, wherein a body portion is receivable for massaging. The gap is adjustable while the apparatus is in use, for the massage tools in use to exert therapeutically effective force substantially continuously on a massage-receiving body portion received in the gap. The massage tools are interchangeable with massage tools of other shapes designed to provide different therapeutic effects. The frame is open- and closeable to accommodate limbs of different sizes.

  • Patent number: 9996396
    Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for transferring a virtual machine from a first server to a second server. A first enhanced system translator executing on the first server includes a first virtual machine interface to interface with a first instance of the virtual machine on the first server and a first convert state component. A second enhanced system translator executing on the second server includes a second virtual machine interface to interface with a second instance of the virtual machine and a second convert state component. The first convert state component converts a state of the first instance of the virtual machine to a first instruction set architecture and the second convert state component converts the first instructions set architecture to a second instruction set architecture for use by the second instance of the virtual machine to run on the second server.

  • Patent number: 9372727
    Abstract: A system, method and computer program for transferring a running virtual machine from a first to a second physical machine, where each of the physical machines has a different instruction set architecture. The system may comprise a receiver for receiving a transfer request. In response to receiving the transfer request, the virtual machine is paused and a state of the virtual machine is collected. A first interface component operable on the first physical machine stopped and a second interface component operable on the second physical machine is started. The state is transferred to the second interface component. The virtual machine is started on the second physical machine in response to the state transfer.
