Abstract: Systems and methods for requesting computer software program logic by a client computing device from a server are provided. The method at the server comprises receiving a request for the computer software program logic from the client device along with a first list comprising details about multiple modules running on the client device; determining a second list comprising details about multiple modules required to deploy the computer software program logic on the client device; checking whether the modules of the second list need to be substituted based on their availability or suitability; updating the second list; checking whether the client device has permission rights for accessing the modules of the updated second list; and sending an object comprising the modules of the updated second list to the client device, the updated second list comprising details about the modules required for deployment of logic on the client device.

Abstract: A fastening arrangement includes a threaded fastener (5) including a head (11), a shank (9) and a laterally expandable member (17). A bridging member (7) is provided on the shank of the fastener, the bridging member having an aperture through which the shank passes. The aperture has a dimension greater than the dimension of the shank (9) but less than the dimension of the head (11), and an outer dimension greater than a dimension of the laterally expandable member (17) in a first configuration but less than the dimension of the laterally expandable member in a second configuration.

Abstract: An energy absorber, for use with a safety cable attached to a structure, comprises an elongate slide member (3) and a friction plate (5, 7) positioned adjacent to the elongate slide member. The friction plate is urged against a face of the elongate slide member by a biasing means (9, 11) to generate friction between the friction plate and the elongate slide member.

Abstract: An intermediate bracket for a fall arrest system mounted on a structure comprises a securing member (1) adapted to be secured to the structure. An attachment arm (3) is pivotably attached at a first end to the securing member and a cable fixing member (5) is pivotably attached to a second end of the attachment arm and adapted to support a safety cable of the fall arrest system at a distance from the structure.

Abstract: A supporting bracket assembly for a horizontal lifeline cable (4) comprises a base plate (14), bracket means (24) and holding means (28) for the cable. The base plate (14) is provided for securing to a structure (6). The bracket means (24) is secured to the base plate and adapted for frictionally restrained pivotability with respect to the base plate and the holding means (28) for the cable (4) is secured to the bracket means (24). In this way, dynamic loading of the cable (4) results in pivoting of the bracket means (24), against frictional restraint, from a first position (36) into a second position (38).

Abstract: A termination arrangement for a horizontal lifeline cable (4) for use with a structure (6) includes an elongate stocking (14) of woven wire form surrounding an end section of the cable (4). The stocking (14) has a first end (22) adapted and arranged for secure connection to the structure (6), and a second end (28) secured to the cable (4). Tension applied to the cable results in elongation of the stocking (14) and contraction onto the cable so that the cable is securely gripped by the stocking.
