Abstract: A hierarchical health index evaluation method for an intelligent substation includes: obtaining a basic health index of a device based on static information and dynamic information of the device; obtaining a device correlation based on a communication connection relationship between the device and another device, and correcting the basic health index of the device based on the device correlation to obtain a health index of the device; obtaining a layer-based health index of a layer based on a device health index and a device importance weight of the layer; obtaining a whole-station health index of an intelligent substation based on a layer-based health index of each layer and a sum of device importance weights of each layer; and regulating the intelligent substation based on a health index of each device in the intelligent substation, the layer-based health index of each layer, and the whole-station health index.

Abstract: A method for a method of prophylaxis and/or therapy of neurological conditions in a subject in need thereof includes the step of administrating a recombinant AAV vector to the subject. Also disclosed is the use of the a recombinant AAV vector in the manufacture of a medicament of prophylaxis and/or therapy of neurological conditions in a subject in need thereof. The recombinant AAV vector includes: PHP.eB; a sequence for introducing the expression of human M3 muscarinic DREADD receptor coupled to Gq (hM3Dq); and an inhibitory neuron-specific Distal-less homeobox (Dlx) gene enhancer sequence.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing a storage system are disclosed. The storage system includes a first storage device and a second storage device different from the first storage device. A first storage operation is received for a first portion of a file, and a data structure associated with the file is identified. Based on the data structure, the first storage device is identified for the first portion of the file. The first storage operation is transmitted to the first storage device. In response to the first storage operation, the first storage device updates or accesses the first portion of the file.

Abstract: A system and method for caching in storage devices. In some embodiments, the method includes: opening a first file, by a first thread; reading a first page of data, from the first file, into a page cache in host memory of a host; adding, to a first data structure, a first pointer, the first pointer pointing to the first page of data; opening a second file, by a second thread; reading a second page of data, from the second file, into the page cache; and adding, to the first data structure, a second pointer, the second pointer pointing to the second page of data.

Abstract: A method for evaluating performance of a natural gas analysis system includes obtaining components of a natural gas analysis system as well as the maximum allowable error and the maximum allowable deviation of a calorific value of each of the components. The method includes determining components and uncertainties of a standard gas mixture; obtaining a final peak area of each of the components in each group of standard gas mixture. The method includes obtaining calibration functions of the natural gas analysis system and analytical functions of respective components. The method includes obtaining an uncertainty and a calorific value uncertainty of each of the components. The method includes judging whether the evaluation result from the natural gas analysis system to be evaluated is qualified, and providing a performance evaluation conclusion for the natural gas analysis system.

Abstract: A system and method for managing queues for persistent storage. In some embodiments, the method includes opening, by a first thread running in a host, a first storage object; and creating, by the host, in a memory of the host, a first block device queue, the first block device queue being dedicated to the first storage object.
