摘要:
Embodiments relate to classification of transactions based upon analysis of multiple variables. For a purchase transaction, such variables can include but are not limited to: buying location, source system, line of business, cost center, functional area, supplier capabilities, item description, account description, organization, department, custom parameters, and others. Embodiments may rely upon one or more classification schemes, such as statistical classification, semantic classification, and/or knowledge base classification, taken alone or in combination. In a purchase transaction, classification based on multivariate analysis facilitates identification of a purchased item or service, and hence accuracy in classifying and assigning a central classification code. Particular embodiments may include a feature allowing user review/revision of category assignments via a feedback loop linked to past classification. This revision feature may add clarity to a current transaction, allow modification of future classification for ongoing improvement, and provide a user-driven measure of system performance.

Embodiments relate to enrichment of a data warehouse utilizing a business compendium. Embodiments may employ a process comprising data standardization and cleansing, de-duplication of entries, and matching and enrichment, followed by manual review of an enriched record by a user. During standardization, data may be transformed into consistent content, placing correct data elements into appropriate fields, removing invalid characters, and/or standardizing names and addresses. Duplicate records are then detected and marked. During matching and enrichment, the existence of an entity (such as a supplier), may be verified by progressive matching against the business compendium. Enrichment may provide additional information regarding the entity (e.g. related to risk, diversity, and bankruptcy). The enriched record is available for manual review, allowing the user to change duplicates, matches, and parent/child linkages. Feedback from the user review may enhance accuracy of subsequent enrichment by self-learning aspects, reducing over time a need for manual review.

摘要:
An erosion control device for use on beach and land areas subject to erosion includes: (a) an elongated beam portion comprising a first wall and a first base; (b) a cross-beam portion having a length that is less than half the length of the elongated beam portion, the cross-beam portion including a second wall and a second base; and (c) a mechanism for connecting the device to a second erosion control device; wherein the cross-beam portion extends transversely through the elongated beam portion at about a mid-point of the elongated beam portion. Also included herein is a matrix of interconnectable, relatively uniform erosion control devices.

A method and apparatus for providing quality of service (QoS) measurements for remote-access users of a virtual private network (VPN) utilizes hardware/software at the remote VPN client to collect information related to the remote client's ability to connect to the VPN and remain connected. A centralized server is configured to query each remote client and upload the collected connection data, the server functioning to analyze the collected data to determine QoS information in terms of, for example, “VPN accessibility” (defined as success rate for connection to VPN servers), “VPN sustainability” (defined as the ability to maintain a network connection), and “VPN availability” (defined as the ability of a persistent remote-access location to maintain its network connect). The QoS measurements allow the VPN service provider to improve the experience of remote access users, generate alarms and reports, and may also be used to form service level agreements (SLAs) with such users.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a novel method which makes LVR to HVR registration possible by wrapping the X and Y scribes around each instance of each layer on both the LVR and HVR reticles; standard HVR reticles and LVR reticles will not align to one another due to registration and electrical test structures in the scribe being in different locations. Another embodiment of the present invention addresses the loss of die per wafer due to increased scribe area when using LVR and HVR reticles in the same set.
摘要:
A method and system for providing a fluidic interface to slides bearing microarrays of biomolecules or other samples immobilized thereon to perform a variety of chemical reactions or processing steps on the slide. An interface device seals against the slide to form a chamber or chambers containing all or a portion of the microarray, providing selective access to portions of the slide. The interface device includes inlet and outlet ports permitting liquid sample and reagents to be introduced to and removed from the chamber accessing the slide surface. Pre- and post-array microfluidic circuitry may be included in the interface device or in attachable modules. The system may include one or more compartments for collecting and storing waste fluids.
摘要:
Described are techniques used in monitoring the performance, security and health of a system used in an industrial application. Agents included in the industrial network report data to an appliance or server. The appliance stores the data and determines when an alarm condition has occurred. Notifications are sent upon detecting an alarm condition. The alarm thresholds may be user defined. A threat thermostat controller determines a threat level used to control the connectivity of a network used in the industrial application.
