20120017027 | METHOD FOR IMPROVING SAVE AND RESTORE PERFORMANCE IN VIRTUAL MACHINE SYSTEMS - Page data of a virtual machine is represented for efficient save and restore operations. One form of representation applies to each page with an easily identifiable pattern. The page is described, saved, and restored in terms of metadata reflective of the pattern rather than a complete page of data reflecting the pattern. During a save or restore operation, however, the metadata of the page is represented, but not the page data. Another form of representation applies to each page sharing a canonical instance of a complex pattern that is instantiated in memory during execution, and explicitly saved and restored. Each page sharing the canonical page is saved and restored as a metadata reference, without the need to actually save redundant copies of the page data. | 01-19-2012 |

Each page within the virtual machine system includes associated metadata, which includes a page signature characterizing the contents of a corresponding page or a reference to a page with canonical contents, and a flag that indicates the page needs to be updated before being accessed. The metadata may also include a flag to indicate that a backing store of the memory page has contents of a known content class. When such a memory page is mapped to a shared page with contents of that known content class, a flag in the metadata to indicate that contents of the memory page needs to be updated is not set. | 04-12-2012 |

20120131259 | SHARING MEMORY PAGES HAVING REGULAR EXPRESSIONS WITHIN A VIRTUAL MACHINE - A lightweight technique for sharing memory pages within a virtual machine (VM) is provided. This technique can be used on its own to implement intra-VM page sharing or it can be augmented with sharing across VMs. Memory pages whose content can be described by some succinct grammar, such as a regular expression or simple pattern, are identified for sharing within a VM. If the content of a page matches some simple pattern, it is proposed to share such a page, but only in the scope of the VM to which it belongs, i.e., intra-VM sharing. All other pages, i.e., those that are not simple patterns, can be candidates for sharing in the scope of all currently active VMs, i.e., inter-VM sharing. Either fully functional page sharing across VMs and/or page sharing in the context of each VM can be implemented. | 05-24-2012 |

20100258487 | HPLC schematic with integrated sample cleaning system - The disclosed HPLC flow schematic back-flushes the guard column with mobile phase once every operating cycle, the regular cleaning maintaining its effectiveness and useful life. This mobile phase flow reversal is accomplished by imposing a two position multiple port switching valve between the guard and separation columns. In one valve position, the mobile phase is pumped in one flow direction through both the separation and guard columns, but the switched valve maintains the same flow direction only through the separation column and reverses the mobile phase flow direction through the guard column, for effectively cleaning the guard column. Moreover, the mobile phase back flow is directed over the emptied sample drawing needle for cleaning it to reduce possible sample cross contamination. The improved flow circuits use basically only the typical HPLC system components, except for some insignificant modifications from existing injector designs. | 10-14-2010 |

A tubular nut fits over the gripping jaws, and cam faces provided between the nut and jaws serve to tighten or release the jaws relative to the tube, depending on which direction the nut is shifted axially along the body. The outside tubular face of the actuating member is knurled, providing for reliable manual gripping and axial shifting the actuating member. | 02-03-2011 |
20110064616 | TRANSPORT DETECTOR FOR LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY - A transport detector for Liquid Chromatography includes a spinning disk covered in a non-wettable, non-transparent material with a wettable transparent channel left for a mobile phase. A mobile phase is delivered from a chromatography column into the channel. A light source with focusing optics is set along the channel path and array of sensors for optical signal detection are mounted along the path of the light. The disk rotation could be set at different speeds by a motor, allowing the operator to control the thickness of the liquid layer in the channel. Varying the thickness of liquid changes the length of the optical cell of the detector, which allows adjusting the sensitivity of the detector. The spinning disk design allows for using of multiple sensors of different kind as well as different detection methods. Also, the array of sensors of the same kind could be used to perform multiple measures of the same portion of the mobile phase. This feature improves the Signal to Noise ratio of the detector. The detector has a wiping and vacuuming device at the end of the channel's circular path to regenerate the channel for the new mobile phase entry. | 03-17-2011 |
