Abstract: A computer-implemented method for navigating backup configurations may include (1) identifying a set of computing resources within a backup environment managed by a backup system, (2) identifying a request to navigate a configuration of the backup system, and, in response to the request, (3) displaying the set of computing resources within a graphical user interface as selectable elements, (4) identifying a selection within the graphical user interface of at least one computing resource within the set of computing resources, (5) receiving an input within the graphical user interface to provide backup information relating to the selection, and, in response to the input, (6) displaying the backup information. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: An aspect of this invention is a method that includes evaluating a computing environment by performing auditing of a fault tolerance ability of the computing environment to tolerate each of a plurality of failure scenarios; constructing a failover plan for each of the plurality of scenarios; identifying one or more physical resource limitations which constrain the fault tolerance ability; and identifying one or more physical resources to be added to the computing environment to tolerate each of the plurality of failure scenarios.

Abstract: One or more computers are configured to determine a human stress condition corresponding to one or more physical or physiological parameters extracted from one or more micro-impulse radar (MIR) signals.

Abstract: A method for displaying backup-status information for computing resources. The method may include (1) identifying at least one protected resource that is scheduled to be backed up periodically, (2) identifying a request to view backup-status information for the protected resource, (3) in response to the request, identifying each backup of the protected resource that was scheduled to occur during a prior window of time, (4) determining whether each scheduled backup of the protected resource was successful, and (5) displaying, within a graphical user interface, a visual backup status indicator for the protected resource for the prior window of time, wherein the visual backup status indicator visually indicates whether any scheduled backups of the protected resource failed during the prior window of time. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for simultaneously configuring multiple independent backups. The method may include (1) identifying a backup environment managed by a backup system, (2) identifying a request from a user to configure a plurality of backups within the backup environment, wherein each backup within the plurality of backups specifies, independent of any other backup, a backup operation to be performed by the backup system on a computing resource within the backup environment, (3) providing a graphical user interface that allows the user to simultaneously configure each backup within the plurality of backups, (4) receiving a request, from the user via the graphical user interface, to simultaneously configure each backup within the plurality of backups, and (5) in response to the request to simultaneously configure each backup within the plurality of backups, independently configuring each backup within the plurality of backups so as to maintain the independence of each backup.

Abstract: An electrochemical device (such as a battery) includes at least one electrode having a fluid surface, which may employ a surface energy effect to maintain a position of the fluid surface and/or to modulate flow within the fluid. Fluid-directing structures may also modulate flow or retain fluid in a predetermined pattern. An electrolyte within the device may also include an ion-transport fluid, for example infiltrated into a porous solid support.

Abstract: A method for demonstrating the comparative break-though strengths of at least two tissue products is disclosed. The steps include: a) providing a break-through test apparatus b) providing the tissue products; c) observing a first condition of each tissue product; d) disposing a first of the tissue products between a lower platen and an upper platen in a face-to-face-to-face relationship between coextensive apertures disposed within the lower and upper platen; e) providing a simulated mucous composition; f) directing a first portion of the simulated mucous composition toward the first tissue product; g) observing a second condition of the first tissue product; h) disposing a second tissue product between the coextensive apertures; i) directing a second portion of the simulated mucous composition toward the second tissue product; j) observing a second condition of the second tissue product; and, k) comparing the second condition of the first tissue product and the second condition of the second tissue product.

Abstract: A method for testing the break-through strength of a tissue product is disclosed. The method entails the steps of: a) observing a first condition of the tissue product; b) disposing the tissue product between a lower platen and an upper platen; c) disposing at least a portion of the tissue product within an aperture disposed within the lower platen and an aperture disposed within the upper platen; d) providing a simulated mucous composition; e) directing the simulated mucous composition toward the tissue product disposed within the aperture disposed within the lower platen and the aperture disposed within the upper platen; f) after step d), observing a second condition of the tissue product; and, g) comparing the first and the second conditions of the tissue product.

Abstract: One or more micro-impulse radars (MIRs) are configured to determine the movement of at least one person. Media can be output to the person responsive to the movement.
