Abstract: A prosthetic heart valve for implant in a human. The valve includes a wireform with undulating inflow cusps and outflow commissure posts to which flexible leaflets attach and coapt in a flow area. Each leaflet may drape over the top of the wireform in the cusp area, but have tabs that each extend underneath the wireform at the commissure posts to be secured along with a tab of an adjacent leaflet. The prosthetic heart valve may also be a dual-wire wireform, with the leaflets sandwiched therebetween. One wireform may be larger than the other, with the leaflets extending over the smaller wireform. The smaller wireform may have commissures that bend radially outward from the larger wireform to provide structure to which the leaflet tabs attach.

Abstract: In a virtualization system that includes a hypervisor that performs OSID management for linking a plurality of OSs with resources, a guest OS that receives an initial value from the hypervisor and sets a OSID for each resource, and a OSID manager that sets a OSID for each resource, a new OSID created by OSID generator in OSID manager after a certain period of time has elapsed after setting the initial value is set to the guest OS and the IP (resource), and is requested to be updated to a new OSID set by the update controller in OSID manager. This enables simultaneous updating of OSID of the guest operating system and the resources, thus achieving high robustness.
