摘要:
The subject invention a method for converting liver stem/progenitor cells to a pancreatic functional cell by transfecting said liver cells with a pancreatic development gene and/or by culturing with pancreatic differentiation factors. The resulting cells produce and secrete insulin protein in response to glucose stimulation.

Disclosed is a storage management framework that integrates corrective action plans output from multiple different types of planning tools, sorts the different corrective action plans based on utility and risk values and outputs a time-based schedule for implementing one or more of the corrective action plans to resolve identified current and anticipated workload service level objective (SLO) violations.
摘要:
A technique of allocating shared resources in a computer network-based storage system comprises taking periodic performance samples on a running storage system; evaluating an objective function that takes as input the performance samples to quantify how aligned a current state of the storage system is with organizational objectives; building and maintaining models of behavior and capabilities of the storage system by using the performance samples as input; determining how resources of the storage system should be allocated among client computers in the storage system by selecting one among many possible allocations based on predictions generated by the models in order to maximize a value of the objective function; calculating a confidence statistic value for a chosen resource allocation based on an accuracy of the models; and enforcing the chosen resource allocation on the running storage system when the confidence statistic value is at or above a predetermined threshold value.
摘要:
The embodiments of the invention provide a method, computer program product, etc. for risk-modulated proactive data migration for maximizing utility. More specifically, a method of planning data migration for maximizing utility of a storage infrastructure that is running and actively serving at least one application includes selecting a plurality of potential data items for migration and selecting a plurality of potential migration destinations to which the potential data items can be moved. Moreover, the method selects a plurality of potential migration speeds at which the potential data items can be moved and selects a plurality of potential migration times at which the potential data items can be moved to the potential data migration destinations. The selecting of the plurality of potential migration speeds selects a migration speed below a threshold speed, wherein the threshold speed defines a maximum system utility loss permitted.
