Patent number: 11425106Abstract: A system for processing a data package, comprising an input module for receiving a data package over a data network. The data package comprising a header and payload data and storage for storing at least one criterion. The system comprises a buffer for temporarily storing at least a part of the data package; and a decision-making module for determining a risk score based on the at least one criterion and the at least a part of the data package and being indicative of a handling action to apply to the data package. The system comprises an updating module for recalculating the at least one criterion in the storage; and a processing module for determining a handling action for the data package, wherein the handling action is based on the risk score. The recalculation is performed asynchronously with regard to the determination of the risk score.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2020Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: EGRESS SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES IP LIMITEDInventors: John Goodyear, Anthony Robert Pepper, Neil Tony Larkins, Nathan Michael Pilkington

Patent number: 11425105Abstract: A method for processing a data package to be sent to an addressed recipient. The method comprises obtaining payload data to be sent over a data network as a data package. The data package comprises the payload data and a header. The method also comprises analysing the header of the data package based on a plurality of characteristics, the header comprising at least an addressed recipient, and the characteristics comprising at least a recipient identifier and a transmission time. A risk indicator is generated, which indicates a risk associated with the analysis of the addressed recipient of the data package. The data package is processed to determine a handling action for the data package. The handling action is based on the risk indicator and is applied the handling action to the data package to generate a processed data package. The processed data package is then transmitted to the addressed recipient.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2020Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: EGRESS SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES IP LIMITEDInventors: John Goodyear, Anthony Robert Pepper, Neil Tony Larkins, Nathan Michael Pilkington

Publication number: 20080052455Abstract: An information handling system may include a cluster. The cluster may comprise at least a first node and a second node. The first node may include a first shared disk mapping driver and a second node may include a second shared disk mapping driver. The first node and the second node may be in communication with one or more shared storage disks and the shared disk mapping driver may be configured to communicate with the second shared disk mapping driver for assigning a common device name to the shared storage disks.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2006Publication date: February 28, 2008Applicant: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Mahmoud B. Ahmadian, Anthony Fernandez, Ronald Robert Pepper

Publication number: 20060016121Abstract: The present invention provides arthropod monitoring or baiting stations that provide a simple and readily visible indication of arthropod activity within a station housing. The visible indication is accomplished through the use of a monitoring member that preferably comprises a colored material that visibly contrasts with the color of the interior of the housing, such that the color contrast between the monitor member and the interior of the housing aids in visually detecting the presence of arthropods within the housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2005Publication date: January 26, 2006Inventors: James Ballard, Richard Ekins, Robert Pepper

Publication number: 20060016550Abstract: A carbon friction material, preferably a woven carbon friction material, wherein a binder such as an epoxy or phenolic resin is used to strengthen and impart rigidity to the friction material. The friction material has a graded concentration of the binder such that the friction surface may have substantially no binder. A reinforcing substrate such as a fiberglass backing may also be present. The coefficient of friction at the friction surface may be further increased by, for example, shaving the surface such that a plurality of fibers become oriented in a direction perpendicular to the friction surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 20, 2005Publication date: January 26, 2006Inventors: Donald Connors, David Giannelli, Robert Pepper

Publication number: 20050277100Abstract: An e-learning game generator accesses a learning object repository, a learning object assessment object repository, and a video repository. The video repository includes scenes that are suggestive of success and failure of the student in answering questions from the learning object assessment objects. When a student answers a question correctly, the game generator selects a positive scene from the video repository and presents it to the student; when the student answers a question incorrectly, the game generator selects a negative scene and presents it to the student.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2004Publication date: December 15, 2005Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Elizabeth Bagley, Blake Goulette, Pamela Nesbitt, Robert Pepper, Ronald Shapiro

Patent number: 5160095Abstract: A macerator including two stacks of contra-rotating interleaved cutter discs having teeth is provided with two side rails closely adjacent to the periphery of the stacks of cutters. Each side rail has a plurality of angled ribs with slots therebetween. The ribs and slots are angled at an acute angle to the planes of the cutters so that each rib is passed by two or more cutters thereby to ensure maceration of any solids passing with the liquid in the slots.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 1992Date of Patent: November 3, 1992Assignee: Mono Pumps LimitedInventor: Robert Pepper
