  • Publication number: 20150227305
    Abstract: Various user interface components and features can be tested and simulated with the unified framework module, and the full application user experience can be tested, experienced and evaluated. This can assist the design process of an application in providing the ability to test and explore different user interface components. During this process the user components can be simulated to provide the user experience so it can be determined whether the user components are organized properly and the prototype can be validated before the full blown application is launched. Also user interface features can be further modified or added based on the user feedback. The unified framework module can be configured to package a program in a form that is suitable for any targeted device and/or channel to make deployment across various devices and channels more efficient and cost effective.

  • Patent number: 8795581
    Abstract: Fused silica ceramics plays demanding role in high velocity missile/aircraft'radome development. Slip casting is the most common and commercially viable process utilized for radome production. Unfortunately slip casting cannot afford high density due to its poor green packing density which in turn results in poor rain erosion resistance. Present invention discloses process for preparing high density fused silica bodies by adding boron oxide (B2O3) with the commercially available high purity fused silica as sintering aid cum de-vitrification inhibitor. Various concentrations of B2O3 were added to high purity fused silica. Thus formed compositions were made into slip-castable slurries in aqueous medium without any addition of dispersing agents. The reheological properties like mild shear thinning and low thixotropic behaviour of the slurries were established. These slurries were then slip-casted in plaster of parries mold. The green and sintered properties of the casted samples were studied.

  • Patent number: 8722403
    Abstract: The present invention comprises a specimen preserver. A bubble reservoir is used to hold a preserving liquid such as artificial cerebrospinal liquid (aCSF). Oxygen is introduced into the aCSF by a gas diffuser which is attached to the bubble reservoir. The tissue samples are contained in one or more chambers in a holding platform. The platform is suspended well above the bottom of the bubble reservoir. The lower portion of each of the chambers is open toward the bottom of the bubble reservoir, but is covered by a fine mesh. The gas introduced into the aCSF circulates within the bubble reservoir. However, the tissue samples are not directly exposed to the gas bubbles because the fine mesh excludes the bubbles from the chambers in which the tissue samples are housed.

  • Patent number: 8687964
    Abstract: A method and apparatus of managing remote third party OTN & WDM transceiver equipment using the same fibers used for end user data exchange is described. A network device collects management instructions for the OTN & WDM transceiver equipment, assembles this management information into the overhead of a data frame and transmits on an optical link directly coupled to the network device. The WDM transceiver function converts the optical signal to an electrical one and the OTN function extracts the management instructions from the OTN overhead. A processor associated with the OTN framer function acts on that information. The management instructions includes the instruction to periodically and continuously, load certain performance, alarm or informational data into its OTN overhead and transmit that to a similar transceiver at the remote end of the communications link.

  • Patent number: 8601214
    Abstract: The techniques introduced here provide for a write-back sparse volume cache in a storage system. The write-back sparse volume cache is implemented by a first storage server that is connected to communicate with a second storage server that hosts the origin storage volume. The first storage server receives a write request from a client to write data to the origin storage volume. In response to receiving the write request, the first storage server writes the data to the sparse volume cache maintained by the first storage server and acknowledges to the client a successful write operation. The data is maintained in the sparse volume cache such that the presence of the data in the sparse volume cache is transparent to the client and subsequent requests for the written data are serviced by the first storage server from the sparse volume cache. The data can later be flushed to the origin storage volume.

  • Patent number: 8510178
    Abstract: A performance analysis system analyzes the performance of affiliate sites that provide links to specific items in an electronic catalog, and identifies catalog items that can be listed by such affiliate sites to improve performance. An association mining component analyzes transaction data attributable to specific categories of affiliate sites to identify items that are frequently purchased in combination by users of such sites. The detected item associations are used to evaluate, for a given affiliate site, whether significant disparities exist between the expected and actual sales quantities of specific items. The results of the analysis are incorporated into affiliate-specific performance reports, which may include specific recommendations for improving performance. The disclosed methods may also be used to analyze the performance of, and provide recommendations to, online sellers within a marketplace or auction system.
