摘要:
A method and system for maintaining a traffic service level for data communicated by a computer network having a source. The computer network is connected to at least one of many networks, where each of the many networks includes a number of paths for transporting the data communicated to a destination. In one embodiment of the method, the traffic service level associated with one of the paths between the source and the destination is monitored. Then, it is determined whether the traffic service level associated with that path meets one or more performance metrics. If a flow of data communicated over the monitored path fails to meet at least one of the performance metrics, then a service level violation is indicated. Upon such an indication, an alternate path is selected to resolve the service level violation.

A dump box including a pair of opposing side walls joined to a bottom and a back; and a cable, including front ties, at least one front connector, at least one front cable, each front tie being sized and configured to selectively secure to the connector, the front cable being joined to the connector, the connector and front tie being secured when the front cable is taut and the connector and front tie being disengaged when the front cable is slack and a method of lowering material from an elevated location, including the steps of raising a dump box to an elevated location using cable joined to a crane; lowering the dump box onto the elevate location; placing material into the dump box; moving a connector to a front tie of the dump box; applying tension to the cable joining the dump box to the crane to secure the connector and front tie; raising the dump box off the elevated location; lowering the dump box onto a dumping location thereby releasing the connector from the front tie; and partially raising the dump box to pour out the contents.

A dual treadle treadmill. The dual treadle treadmill includes a frame, a first treadle, a second treadle, a clutch axle, and a tensioning mechanism. The first treadle and the second treadle are each pivotally coupled with the frame and each have a moving surface. The clutch axle includes an axle, a first driver, and a second driver. The axle is rotatably connected to the frame. The first driver is coupled to the axle by a first clutch. The first clutch transmits torque between the first driver and the axle in response to the first driver rotating in a first direction relative to the axle. The first treadle is connected to the first driver through a first link such that the first driver is rotated in a first direction in response to the first treadle being pivoted in the first direction. The tensioning mechanism maintains a tension on the first link.

The invention relates to an application server and a method. The application server comprises a resolver which reserves a subscriber number prefix for test target applications. The resolver associates an address of an application server with the prefix in a memory and resolves subscriber numbers containing the prefix into the address using the memory. A network element simulator listens to a port, which has a port number which is also used in communicating with the network element being simulated. A test target application communicates with the simulator instead of the network element being simulated via a protocol stack in the application server. An application layer binding is used to route incoming messages to the test target application.

An obstruction removal system for percutaneous removal of clots or obstructions within the vascular system is disclosed. The obstruction removal system includes a multi-lumen catheter with a plurality of circulating capture devices occurring along a drive belt. The plurality of capture devices may be basket-like devices attached to the drive belt, or may be formed by integral coiled or protuberant sections of the drive belt. The circulating capture or interference devices affect removal of the clot or obstruction bit-by-bit through a series of passes.

摘要:
A detectable warning plate having integrally cast lugs. The lugs may extend from the undersurface of the plate so that they can be entrapped within concrete during installation. The plate may define a vent hole through the plate above each lug to permit air to escape from beneath the dome plate during installation. The plate may include one or more integral support ribs that extend downwardly from the plate. The support ribs may extend around the plate near the periphery. The lugs may be extensions of the support ribs.

Devices and methods for obtaining a three-dimensional image of an internal body site are provided. The subject devices are elongated structures (e.g., catheters) having a plurality of ultrasonic transducers located at their distal end. The configuration of the plurality of ultrasonic transducers may be reversibly changed from a first to a second configuration, where the radial aperture of the plurality of ultrasonic transducers is greater in the second configuration than in the first configuration. A feature of certain embodiments of the subject invention is that the plurality of ultrasonic tranducers are configured in the second configuration as a substantially continuous set of transducers. In using the subject imaging devices, the distal end of the devices is positioned at the internal body site of interest while the plurality of ultrasonic transducers is in the first configuration. The configuration of the ultrasonic transducers in then changed to the second configuration for imaging the internal body site. The subject devices and methods for their use find application in imaging a variety of different internal body sites.

A dual treadle treadmill. The dual treadle treadmill includes a frame, a first treadle, a second treadle, and a generator. The first treadle and the second treadle are each pivotally coupled with the frame and each have a moving surface. The generator is operably associated with the first treadle such that the generator is driven in response to the first treadle pivoting relative to the frame. Other embodiments of dual treadle treadmills are also described.
