Abstract: An enclosure system attachable to a railway vehicle to protect automobiles in the event of a collision. The enclosure system having an enclosure panel that is actuatable between a deployed configuration and a stowed configuration. A breakaway mechanism configured to allow certain components of enclosure system to release from the railway vehicle in the event of a collision with another railway vehicle to ensure the anticlimbers engage between the railway vehicles to prevent override. The enclosure system having a coupler centering assembly for maintaining a coupler in a forward position when the enclosure is in the deployed configuration.

Abstract: A client application is specified by a target tenant and represented in an OAuth provider, along with a corresponding secret. A source tenant consents to permissions to be executed by the client application on a resource of the source tenant. A target service uses the secret to obtain an access token from an authorization server coupled to the source tenant and uses the access token to obtain access, specified by the permissions, to the resource served by a source service acting on behalf of the source tenant.

Abstract: A digital differential steganographic system and method includes a master key that is generated from an unmarked media, a mark-point reservoir created from the unmarked media and containing a set of viable candidate mark points for the unmarked media, and a mark-point applicator to insert data into the unmarked media at selected mark-points chosen from the mark-point reservoir creating a digital watermark. The method includes using an original unmarked media, shaping and testing marks in the original media for predictable distortion, verifying embedded marks at point of insertion in the original media, minimizing mark energy and duration for least-perceptible change, and using non-distributed, unmarked media of the original media as a master key.

Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for producing and dispensing aerated and/or blended products, such as food products.

Abstract: Provided are a method, system, and program for destaging a track from cache to a storage device. The destaged track is retained in the cache. Verification is made of whether the storage device successfully completed writing data. Indication is made of destaged tracks eligible for removal from the cache that were destaged before the storage device is verified in response to verifying that the storage device is successfully completing the writing of data.

Abstract: In a data storage controller, accessed tracks are temporarily stored in a cache, with write data being stored in a first cache (such as a volatile cache) and a second cache and read data being stored in a second cache (such as a non-volatile cache). Corresponding least recently used (LRU) lists are maintained to hold entries identifying the tracks stored in the caches. When the list holding entries for the first cache (the A list) is full, the list is scanned to identify unmodified (read) data which can be discarded from the cache to make room for new data. Prior to or during the scan, modified (write) data entries are moved to the most recently used (MRU) end of the list, allowing the scans to proceed in an efficient manner and reducing the number of times the scan has to skip over modified entries Optionally, a status bit may be associated with each modified data entry.

Abstract: A printed circuit board (PCB) may be used in a first mode where boundary scan techniques are used to externally program and/or test devices on the PCB, or a second mode where an internal source programs devices using boundary scan techniques. In one implementation, there is also additional flexibility to include or skip devices in a boundary scan chain and to accommodate non-scan related functions for pins used for scanning. These various modes of operation may be selected by activating and deactivating buffers.

Abstract: A data storage control unit is coupled to one or more host devices and to one or more physical storage units, the physical storage units collectives configured as a plurality of logical storage ranks. The storage control unit receives and processes write requests from the host devices and directs that data updates be stored in a temporary storage. The data updates are subsequently destaged to the logical ranks. Write requests are processed at a predetermined rate relative to the rate at which destages are performed (destage mode or rate). The storage control unit evaluates workload conditions of the temporary storage and modifies the destage mode if the temporary storage is in danger of becoming backlogged or if an actual backlog is created, thereby applying a “throttle” to the host write requests. Thus, method, apparatus and program product are provided to dynamically modify a level of throttling whereby through-put of a host device is substantially maintained.

Abstract: There is provided polynucleotides encoding the full sequence for the marmoset and human Type II gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptors (Type II GnRH-R). The corresponding amino acid sequences are also provided.
