Abstract:
A portable tracing utility provides trace configuration, trace instrumentation and trace management functionality for single or multithreaded programs. Through various application programming interfaces (“APIs”) of the tracing utility, a client may control tracing behavior to setup in-memory data structures for storing trace records that record the program's history of execution or to alter the granularity of execution history being traced. The trace behavior can be modified during the life of a program by using the APIs, either dynamically when the program assumes certain states, or through remote procedure calls issued by, for example, an external interface. Programs are instrumented with these APIs to record the history of execution, which during execution of the program is stored in circular in-memory buffers.
Abstract:
The invention provides a novel herbal formulation useful as local anesthetic in topical surgical operations, nerve block conduction, extradural and infiltration anesthesia. Formulation(s) comprises of extract(s) of Spilanthus calva and Spilanthus oleraceae with Gymnema sylvestre, Urtica dioica and Piper longum. The formulation can be used as topical application as ointment or spray or cream.
Abstract:
Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to backup up data. In aspects, a backup target determines a degree to which a data set included on the backup target is not backed up on a backup facility. The degree can represent more than just that the data set is completely backed up or is not backed up at all. If the degree satisfies a condition, the backup target utilizes information derived from a backup history of one or more attempted or successfully completed backup sessions between the backup target and the backup facility to determine whether to provide a notification regarding backup state. The backup target also may send the degree and other backup information to a backup facility which may use this information in determining a backup scheme to employ with the backup target.
Abstract:
A clock monitor system for monitoring an input clock signal in an integrated circuit (IC) includes a clock failure detection circuit and a delay circuit. The clock failure detection circuit generates a control signal based on the input clock signal. The delay circuit is connected to the clock failure detection circuit and provides a clock status signal based on the control signal. The clock status signal indicates whether the input clock signal is operating correctly. The delay circuit provides the clock status signal to the IC after a predetermined number of input clock cycles.
Abstract:
A verification infrastructure uses a verification tool with a user interface with which a user may interact to verify an application and/or its platform. The user may enter the same set of commands to verify instances of the application on different platforms. Furthermore, the verification tool is data driven in a way that allows the verification tool to be easily extended to new platforms. Finally, details of a particular configuration are stored persistently and are used by the verification tool to perform verification. Thus, much of the complex work of acquiring knowledge about the configuration and applying the knowledge to the results of various checks made for verification is performed by the verification tool and not a human user.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel nitrile glycoside of Formula I named NIAZIRIDIN and to analogues and derivatives thereof. The present invention also relates to a process for the isolation of a novel nitrile glycoside of Formula I below named NIAZIRIDIN and its derivatives and analogues by bioactivity-guided fractionation from the pods of Moringa oleifera. The present invention particularly relates to the bioenhancing activity of the novel nitrile glycoside of Formula I below named NIAZIRIDIN and its derivatives and analogues in enhancing bioactivity of commonly used antibiotics such as rifampicin, tetracycline and ampicillin against Gram (+) and (−) bacteria. The biomolecule also enhances the absorption of drugs, vitamins and nutrients through the gastro-intestinal membrane increasing their bio-availability. Therefore niaziridin can be used in combination therapy with drugs and nutrients resulting in reduced drug associated toxicity, reduced cost and duration of chemotherapy.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a fermented herbal health drink, comprising extract from plant Andrographis, extract from barley, wheat, and/or fruit and ethanol concentration ranging between 3 to 13% in the total health drink and optionally extract from plant Tinospora and other additives, said drink not containing hops and still having characteristic taste of a beer with no adverse effect and contributing to several medicinal properties comprising anti-oxidant, nervine relaxant, cholerectic, cardio-tonic, diurectic, digestive and immunomodulant, and a method of producing the herbal health drink, preferably a method of introducing bitterness into said health drink and using the same as a beer or to produce beer with said medicinal properties.
Abstract:
A mechanism for deadlock validation is provided. A potential deadlock is validated by detecting whether a state change has occurred in a member of a set of lock structures that correspond to entities and resources involved in a potential deadlock. The state change detected should have occurred after the state of the lock structures is captured during, for example, the generation of a wait-for graph. For purposes of illustration, potential deadlocks are identified by generating a wait-for graph and detecting cycles in the wait-for graph. While generating wait-for graphs, lock structures are accessed to determine whether a vertex in the wait-for graph should be generated, and the place of the vertex in the wait-for graph. After accessing a particular lock structure for this purpose, the lock structure's state is captured. If the state of the lock structure changes after the state is captured, then any cycle that includes the lock structure may not be valid, and a potential deadlock identified by the cycle is deemed a false deadlock.
Abstract:
In a WDM network employing a plurality of optical amplifiers in at least one optical fiber link, a system and method for dynamically controlling gain in accordance with the collective behavior of the amplifier chain. According to the present invention, the required response time of dynamic gain control is selected substantially inversely relative to the number of amplifiers in the communication path. Illustratively, in a large-scale optical network (with signal channel paths traversing say, a hundred optical amplifiers), the response time of gain control in accordance with the present invention may be on the order of 5 .mu.s or even less.
