Abstract:
Described are techniques for performing data storage optimizations. A data storage optimizer on a first data storage system connected to a set of other data storage systems receives performance classification information. The first data storage system includes a first set of storage devices of a first performance classification. The set of other data storage systems includes a second set of storage devices of a second performance classification different from the first performance classification. A write operation is received from the host to write first data to a target address of a virtually provisioned device. It is determined that physical storage is not currently allocated for the target address of the virtually provisioned device. A first portion of physical storage is allocated for storing the first data. The first portion of physical storage is included in a storage device of the second set having the second performance classification.
Abstract:
Methods of reliably quantifying telomere length in cells or tissues that have been formalin fixed and paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples by quantitative polymerase chain reaction protocol and kits for use with such various methods are provided. The methods of the present invention may be used to predetermine an individual's response to treatment with a telomerase inhibitor, a telomere damaging agent or a telomerase activator.
Abstract:
A device for mounting a riser card includes a base board forming two rods, a motherboard forming an expansion slot to connect the riser card, and a fixing member having two legs at opposite ends. The rods extend through the motherboard and are positioned at opposite ends of the expansion slot. Each rod contains a resilient member inside, and a ball mounted to the resilient member and partly extending out of the rod. The riser card is fixed to the fixing member. Each leg defines a cylindrical hole fitted about one of the rods. The balls partly extend out of the corresponding rods and block tops of the corresponding legs.
Abstract:
A method and system for feeding back channel information to coordinated cells, the method including: measuring channel qualities of downlink channels between coordinated cells and user equipment; classifying the coordinated cells into different coordinated cell classes according to the measured channel qualities; based on different channel quality intervals corresponding to different coordinated cell classes, respectively selecting channel information feedback modes with different feedback enhancement degrees for different coordinated cell classes; and using the selected channel information feedback modes with different feedback enhancement degrees to determine the channel information to be fed back to the coordinated cells in each coordinated cell class according to a pre-determined order, and sending the determined channel information to the coordinated cells.
Abstract:
Various embodiments may provide methods and systems capable of evaluating physiological parameter data. The methods and systems may include a receiver capable of collecting a signal representative of a physiological status of a patient, a plurality of data analysis components, wherein each of the plurality of data analysis components is capable of generating a metric based on the signal, and an arbitrator communicatively coupled to each of the plurality of data analysis components and capable of generating a single metric from the metrics generated by the plurality of data analysis components.
Abstract:
Methods and devices for creating, compressing and searching a binary tree are provided by the present disclosure, which relates to the field of traffic classification. Binary tree compression includes: determining a number of a compression layer or a number of an intermediate node, compressing a binary tree according to the number of the compression layer or the number of the intermediate node to form at least one compression node, and creating a bitmap of the compression node. Therefore, the depth of the decision tree is reduced, the search speed is increased, rule expansion is avoided, and rule replication is reduced.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention relate to a patient monitoring help screen system and method. Specifically, embodiments of the present invention include a patient monitoring device with an integral help screen system including display of video. The help screen system may provide context-sensitive help, such that the help screen accessed by a help key may relate to a specific display context.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a preparation method for extractive of Jinxuan Hemorrhoid Washing Powder botanicals comprises the steps: A, honeysuckle, schizonepeta, and purslane in the prescription of Jinxuan Hemorrhoid Washing Powder are mixed, ground, and passed through a mesh; the medicinal powder obtained from supercritical extraction is soaked in alcohol, then undergoes percolation extraction, and the percolate is collected; B, the alcohol percolate is concentrated, left stand, and suction filtrated to obtain a filtrate; C, the filtrate macroporously adsorpts to a resin column at a flow velocity, is then removed of to impurity by water washing, and undergoes elution with alcohol to obtain an alcohol eluent; D, alcohol is recovered from the eluent, the remaining liquid is concentrated, and the concentrated liquid is dried to obtain the extractive of Jinxuan Hemorrhoid Washing Powder botanicals. The method is simple and produces high active substance content at a lower production cost and energy consumption. The total content of flavones, saponins, and organic acids exceeds 70%. The extractive has substantial anti-inflammatory and pain relieving effects.
Abstract:
A semiconductor structure can include a resistor on a substrate formed simultaneously with other devices, such as transistors. A diffusion barrier layer formed on a substrate is patterned to form a resistor and barrier layers under a transistor gate. A filler material, a first connector, and a second connector are formed on the resistor at the same manner and time as the gate of the transistor. The filler material is removed to form a resistor on a substrate.
