摘要： A test system and method for scheduling and running multiple tests on a single system residing in a single test environment. The test system comprises a processor operable to receive a request to run a selected test on the system at a selected start time, and determine a time slot for the selected test. The test system is also operable to identify any scheduled tests to be run on the system within the time slot, and identify any conflicts between the selected test and any scheduled tests. If no scheduled tests are identified or if no conflicts are identified, the processor is operable to schedule the selected test to run on the system at the selected start time. If conflicts are identified, the processor is preferably operable to determine an alternative start time for the selected test that avoids any conflicts. Various exemplary embodiments of the test system and associated method are provided.

摘要： Embodiments of the hybrid tool string include coiled tubing and jointed tubing, as well as a means typically located at the connection of the coiled and jointed tubing for sealing the fluid flowpath through the bore of the hybrid tool string. Embodiments of the hybrid tool string may use a pressure-activated valve tool attached in series between the coiled tubing and the jointed tubing, which allows for sealing of the bore by application of pressure. Embodiments of the pressure-activated valve tool may use a flapper in conjunction with a sleeve to seal the bore. The novel hybrid tool string may be used to service a well.

摘要： An improved electrode headset is provided for the acquisition of electroencephalographic (EEG) brain signals detected at the scalp of a human subject. The headset includes an elastic fabric cap having a chinstrap, which cap is fitted closely to the scalp. The cap has openings at those selected locations on the scalp to which removable and disposable electrodes are to be removably connected to the scalp. A positioning unit, of a generally flat and flexible plastic material, is attachable to the cap by corresponding hook-and-loop fasteners on the outer surface of the cap and the inner surface of the positioning unit. The positioning unit has a base portion and two opposite leg portions, each with slits. Flat beams are adjustably connected through the slits to the leg portions and base portion. Each beam carries a screw member which adjustably applies pressure to electrode holders and a flexible electrode extractor strap to which the electrode holder is attached. Each electrode holder is snap fastened to an electrode positioned within a cap opening.

摘要： An optical accelerometer, gravitometer, and gradiometer have a light source, a beam splitter, a light medium, and a plurality of mirrors. The light beam from the light source is split into two beams that counter-propagate through the accelerometer. The acceleration experienced by the accelerometer causes a phase shift in the beams, and this phase shift is used to calculate the acceleration.

摘要： A database navigation system simplifies the navigation and use of sales target information in a database. The salesperson, i.e., the user, begins navigating and using the database by logging into the secured system using a computer. Once logged in, the system displays a Leads Worksheet that lists the sales targets, or “suspect”, from the database assigned to that user and the name of a prospecting process, i.e., a prospecting cycle, that the user will follow with that target. The prospecting cycle comprises of several management-defined steps. Once the user creates a To-Do list of the targets to pursue that workday, the user goes to an Action Page. Here, the user completes the actions in the step of the prospecting cycle for each selected sales target using the tools provided. The system creates a log, i.e., a history, of the user's actions including phone calls, e-mails, video transmissions, and the like as related to the target. The history of user interaction with target data creates metrics used by the salesperson and management to evaluate performance and generate performance reports. All the above is achieved by navigating two screens with a computer mouse and with no input of information (save the optional comment) into the database by the salesperson. Thereby, this essentially automates the “cold call” sales prospecting process.

摘要： Web pages may be dynamically generated in response to a web request from a client. The web request specifies a dynamic content resource that declares one or more server-side controls having personalizable properties. Personalization refers to the ability for server-side controls to save property values to persistent storage and is not necessarily limited to a user-specific data management. Personalization also refers to retrieving the property values from persistent storage when the server-side controls are instantiated in order to dynamically generate the web page reflecting the persistent personalization data. The personalized property values may also be output with the HTML data of the resulting page and sent to the client for display.

摘要： The described systems and methods are directed at defining web content navigation. The disclosed technique enables the development of web content for a scenario without having to create every navigational control that is needed to manage the flow through the web content in the scenario or to write non-declarative server-side logic to control navigation. This method determines a declaration in a source file for a web page. The declaration is associated with an object. The method determines the views associated with the object where each of the views includes a user-interface. A flow for navigating through the views is determined. The views are rendered in accordance with the navigational flow.

摘要： A method and apparatus for protecting against a buffer over flow attack. In one variation, an executable software program is divided into an executable image, a data image, and an execution history image. The operating system processes an executable statement in the executable image. Other statements are processed in the data image. In a second variation, the execution history image is made use of in addition to the tasks of the first variation. Each statement is classified as either mutable or immutable. The usage of statements is recorded in the execution history image. If a mutable statement has over-written an immutable statement memory location, then the program is terminated. Optionally, the entire program is re-mapped using the execution history image such that immutable statements cannot over-write mutable statements.

摘要翻译： 一种用于防止流过攻击的缓冲器的方法和装置。 在一个实施例中，可执行软件程序被分为可执行图像，数据图像和执行历史图像。 操作系统处理可执行映像中的可执行语句。 其他语句在数据映像中处理。 在第二变型中，除了第一变型的任务之外，还利用执行历史图像。 每个语句都被分类为可变的或不可变的。 语句的使用记录在执行历史记录图像中。 如果一个可变的语句已经覆盖了一个不可变的语句内存位置，那么该程序将被终止。 可选地，使用执行历史映像重新映射整个程序，使得不可变语句不能覆写可变语句。
