Abstract:
A designer tool that facilitates design of an object model. The tool takes as input a computer-readable representation of a graph of objects (e.g., classes), and creates automatically one or more diagrams that depict these classes as editable trees showing their relationships and properties. These graphs naturally have a tree-like structure which is exploited by the approach. The design tool system includes a layout component that receives as input one or more of the graphs, and converts the one or more graphs into the editable treelike structure. The system further comprises a presentation component that presents the editable treelike structure as a treelike structure diagram, and facilitates user interaction therewith. The tool can be used for opening, editing and saving existing object model files or to create new ones.
Abstract:
The reuse of one or more shared components of graphical modeling tools amongst multiple graphical modeling tools. Graphical designers, or graphical modeling tools, allow for the construction of graphical representations of models in which objects, object properties, and object interrelationships may be visualized. Thus, a variety of graphical modeling tools may be supported and populated with portions of other graphical modeling tools.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for providing a design representation of a software system includes storing in a memory a dataset representative of a plurality of software code elements of the software system, wherein storing the dataset includes incorporating design data into the dataset, the design data being representative of respective design properties regarding the software code elements. A dataset query including a reference to an item of the dataset is received. The dataset query is implemented, with a processing unit in communication with the memory, over the dataset. Implementing the dataset query includes defining a subset of the dataset based on the reference to the item. A user interface rendered via an output device in communication with the processing unit user interface includes a view of the design representation of the software system in accordance with the defined subset of the dataset.
Abstract:
Source code of a graphical designer application may be generated from a definition of graphical elements that can be employed to develop graphical models using the graphical designer application, a definition of one or more object types that can be represented in graphical models developed using the graphical designer application, and a definition of a mapping between the one or more object types and the graphical elements. One or more of these definitions may be stored within a file formatted in accordance with a markup language such as SGML or XML. The graphical designer application may be customized and extended by modifying one or more of the definitions and regenerating the source code and/or by modifying the source code itself. One or more of the definitions may be generated based on a graphical designer template corresponding to a particular model domain.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to band saw blades often used for cutting wood at a sawmill. A band saw blade has teeth, and at least one tooth has a back angle that is greater than the back angle of conventional band saw blades. The greater back angle results in teeth having a smaller tooth angle so that the teeth make deeper penetration into wood or other materials that are cut by the blade.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the structure of a band saw blade. The band saw blade has teeth with an improved geometrical shape that increases the efficiency of the blade. The tooth shape of a band saw blade is defined in part by the back angle and the hook angle, wherein the back angle of the disclosed embodiment exceeds the value of back angle of conventional band saw blades.
Abstract:
The tissue treatment device consists of a bladder (2), having inlet (1) to be connected to a fluid source (not shown). The bladder (2) is placed within a wound cavity and inflated to conform to the cavity shape and apply constant pressure against the wound surface or pulsed pressure, as required. A seal (3) isolates bladder (2) and the wound cavity from atmosphere. Seal (3) includes one or more inlets/outlets (4, 5) for connection to a vacuum source and/or for the supply of media to be introduced into the wound cavity. The vacuum source can be a vacuum pump or a continuous vacuum provided in hospitals. The media to be introduced into the wound cavity can be saline, water or ozone, oxygen, or any substance to promote wound healing. The bladder (2) is made from polymeric material and can also be impregnated with wound healing compounds to promote healing.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a fuel composition comprising a fuel and a film-forming additive wherein the fuel comprises diesel and a fuel alcohol and wherein the film-forming additive is present in the fuel composition in an amount of less than 0.1 wt %.
Abstract:
A lubricating composition containing (a). at least 3 weight percent of an overbased sulphonate detergent with a metal ratio of 12.5:1 to 40:1; (b). at least 1.5 weight percent of a sulphur containing phenate detergent with a metal ratio of not more than 2.5; and (c). an oil of lubricating viscosity, wherein the sulphur containing phenate contains oligomers of hydrocarbyl phenol with at least 50 wt % of said oligomers in the form of the tetramer or higher oligomers. The composition is suitable for internal combustion engines, particularly marine diesel applications to provide improved cleanliness decreased cylinder wear and reduced deposits.
Abstract:
A radio remote-controlled automatic vehicle wash system is activated by an infrared motion sensor. A hand-held transmitter activates an optional garage door mechanism of the system to open and activate the wash system. Within a controller is housed a micro-controller programmed to process inputs from the garage door, an RF transmitter, a thermistor and an infrared motion sensor. When predetermined specified conditions are met, the controller activates a solenoid valve to allow pressurized water to flow through distribution pipes at each side of the vehicle, and under it. Nozzles connected to the distribution pipes spray water in a high velocity 45.degree. fan-like pattern to remove dirt, salt and debris from the surface of the vehicle and the undercarriage.Each nozzle contains a check valve to prevent water from seeping out once the system is depressurized to conserve water and to assure that when the solenoid valve is opened there is no significant delay in opening the nozzles due to absence of water in the distribution pipes. The system is adaptable to any garage or carport as well as with automatic garage door opening.
