20120221513 | TRANSACTIONALLY CONSISTENT REPLAY OF APPLICATION WORKLOADS - A database system providing transactionally consistent replay of application workloads. In a database system, a method providing transactionally consistent replay of application workloads comprises the steps of: during a replay phase in which a plurality of application requests that were previously submitted to an application server system during a capture phase are being replayed, receiving, at a database server, a database request to execute a database command against a database. The database request specifies an application request identifier that identifies a particular application request of the plurality of application requests. The particular application request caused the database command to be executed previously during the capture phase. In response to receiving the database request, determining, based on the application request identifier in the database request, whether to delay execution of the database command at least until a particular replay-phase database transaction has been committed. | 08-30-2012 |
20120221519 | APPLICATION WORKLOAD CAPTURE AND REPLAY SYSTEM - An application workload capture and replay system with a transactionally consistent application workload replay feature is provided. More particularly, the feature includes capture-phase components for capturing and recording a real application workload submitted to a production web application system and includes replay-phase components for replaying the captured application workload against a test web application system in a transactionally consistent manner. The feature provides guarantees about the order of database transactions that are caused when the workload is replayed such that there is a consistency between the replay-phase order of the database transactions and the order of those transactions that occurred when the workload was captured. These consistency guarantees facilitate a faithful reproduction of database changes observed in the production web application system in the test web application system using a captured real application workload. Significantly, this faithful reproduction may be accomplished without having to create a synthetic application workload that approximates or emulates the transactional behavior of the real application workload. Instead, a real application workload may be used as or substantially as it is captured. | 08-30-2012 |

20110287468 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR ASSAYING ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY OF MYELOPEROXIDASE IN BLOOD SAMPLES - The present invention provides a two-step assay for measuring myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in a blood sample. The first step utilizes a chromogenic substrate to measure first peroxidase activity including MPO activity in the sample, whereas the second step measures non-MPO peroxidase activity in the presence of the same chromogenic substrate and a specific MPO inhibitor. Specific MPO peroxidase activity is then determined by comparing the non-MPO peroxidase activity and the total peroxidase activity. The MPO peroxidase activity obtained in this fashion may be proportional, and preferably directly proportional, to the mass of MPO in the sample. Kits for assaying MPO peroxidase activity based on the same principle are also provided. | 11-24-2011 |
