Abstract: Surveillance systems are used in general to monitor buildings, public places, traffic and the like. These systems conventionally comprise a plurality of surveillance cameras producing a large amount of video data. The video data is viewed on-line or recorded and searched through off-line. Especially in the latter case there is a strong need to improve the search speed due to the large amount of the video data.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a user personalized operating method and operating apparatus for use in a chemistry analyzer, the method comprises following steps: initiating the operating software of the chemistry analyzer; loading a profile, the profile comprising at least a database containing combinations of controls for respective users; retrieving configuration information of the function components from the database; and setting display interface and function components by the chemistry analyzer according to the configuration information. The present invention realizes different combinations of controls and display interface by use of the profile and thus operating software of different versions can be provided.

Abstract: A plasma-processing tool for processing a substrate using at least a first process recipe and a second process recipe is provided. The plasma-processing tool includes transducers configured to collect process data streams, each process data stream pertaining to a process parameter being monitored during recipe execution. The tool also includes a logic circuitry configured for receiving a set of meta-data wherein each meta-data includes identification data about the substrate and the process recipe being executed. The logic circuitry is also configured for receiving a set of process data streams, each of which being associated with a specific process recipe. The logic circuitry further includes storing the meta-data and the process data streams associated with the first process recipe as a first file and the meta-data and the process data streams associated with the second process recipe as a second file.

Abstract: Methods for determining a property that affects expression of polynucleotides are provided. A plurality of polynucleotides each encoding a polypeptide sequence is constructed. A frequency that a sequence element is used in a first polynucleotide is different than in a second polynucleotide. Each polynucleotide is expressed in an expression system to obtain an expression property value thereby constructing a dataset that contains, for each respective polynucleotide, sequence element occurrence in the respective polynucleotide and the measured expression property value of the respective polynucleotide. A model is computed that describes variation in the measured expression property values as a function of a plurality of variables and weights.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described that provide regulatory data associated with chemical products. Methods and systems are provided for identifying constituents of the chemical products and for obtaining regulatory data and other information associated with the chemical products. Regulatory data and other chemical data can be obtained from various sources, including government agencies and other regulatory authorities in plural jurisdictions, states and countries. Included in the regulatory data is information that governs handling, shipping, selling, storing, use and disposal of the chemical products. Systems and methods are described that provide improved and automate access to relevant regulatory data.

Abstract: Methods for applying reverse-hash indexing to biological data. Large quantities of biological data, such as gene expression data, that contain multiple instances of similar and/or identical information are processed where like values are indexed together. Replication in storage and repeated analysis information indexed according to these methods increases performance and efficiency with respect to database query and record access.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described that manage regulatory data associated with chemical products. Methods and systems are provided for tracking changes in regulatory data and other information associated with the chemical products. Data and information is collected from various sources, including government agencies and other regulatory authorities in plural jurisdictions, states and countries. Included in the regulatory data is information that governs handling, shipping and use of the chemical products. Systems and methods are described that provide filtering of a repository of regulatory data to determine its relevance to a customer's business and to analyze updates to assess impact on the business.
