Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100281075EFFICIENT PROCESSING OF TIME SERIES DATA - A system receiving time series data will store the data in a first format suited for quick writing. That data will subsequently be converted from the first format to a second format better suited than the first format for compact storage and queries. Over time, the data in the second format can be aggregated and/or down sampled. In one embodiment, the first format includes a set of blocks of information, with each block of information storing data for a set of metrics during a time period. The second format includes a header, a set of blocks of data and a footer. Each bock of data in the second format stores information for a metric over multiple time periods. The footer includes pointers to each block of data.11-04-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110055388Methods and computer program products for monitoring and reporting network application performance - Provided are methods and computer program products for monitoring and reporting network application performance in a networked device. Methods may include collecting performance data corresponding to at least one application running on the networked device in substantially real time using at least one kernel space driver interface; generating multiple kernel level metrics and multiple user level metrics based on the collected performance data; aggregating the kernel level metrics and the user level metrics that were generated during a predefined time interval; and generating, responsive to aggregating the kernel level metrics and the user level metrics, an event incorporating the aggregated metrics.03-03-2011
20110055389Methods and Computer Program Products for Generating a Model of Network Application Health - Provided are methods and computer program products for generating a model of network application health. Methods may include receiving activity data that corresponds to activities of multiple applications that are operable to execute on at least one networked device, and combining the received activity data to remove redundant portions thereof and/or to reconcile inconsistencies therein. Based on the received activity data, ones of the multiple applications are identified, and relationships between the identified applications are determined. A model is generated including the identified applications and the relationships therebetween, and a representation of the model is displayed. Related computer program products are also provided.03-03-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080318905Prodrugs and methods of making and using the same - Prodrugs of parent drugs and methods of making and using the same are described. The prodrugs comprise an amine-containing parent drug moiety and a prodrug moiety, such as methoxyphosphonic acid or ethoxyphosphonic acid. The prodrugs may be employed in therapy for the treatment of various indications, such as pain, and in methods of decreasing the abuse potential of abuse-prone drugs and/or delaying the onset of parent drug activity and/or prolonging parent drug activity as compared to administration of a parent drug.12-25-2008
20100269858COMPOSITIONS AND KITS FOR THE REMOVAL OF IRRITATING COMPOUNDS FROM BODILY SURFACES - The invention provides compositions, methods and kits for the removal of harmful or irritating substances from bodily surfaces. Kits may include a composition containing capsaicin and a capsaicin-cleansing composition, e.g., a composition in which capsaicin is soluble.10-28-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110150679Peristaltic Pump - A peristaltic pump for dispensing liquid includes a front casing portion, a rear casing snap-fitted together with the front casing portion, a rotor confined between the front casing portion and the rear casing portion, a plurality of rollers mounted in the rotor, and a flexible tube compressed at equally spaced intervals by the plurality of rollers. The pump is resistant to constant torques and vibrations caused by a machine to which it is attached so that the pump does not become loose and fall apart. In a first embodiment for low torque and low vibration operations, the pump is screwless. In a second embodiment for high torque and high vibration operations, two screws secure a synchronous gear motor to the pump.06-23-2011

20090092507Fluid pump systems - A fluid pump system has a housing having a housing cover removably connected to a housing base. A plurality of fluid pump assemblies are inside of the housing. Each fluid pump assembly has an electric motor operatively connected to a fluid pump. Each fluid pump has a fluid inlet extending through a wall of the housing to an exterior of the housing and a fluid outlet extending through the wall of the housing to the exterior of the housing. An electrical component inside of the housing is electrically connected to each electric motor. The electrical component has an electrical connector extending through a wall of the housing to connect to a source of electrical power. The fluid pump system can dispense three different fluids, such as two detergents and a fabric softener in a laundry machine.04-09-2009

20090062108STRENGTHENED IRON CATALYST FOR SLURRY REACTORS - A method of strengthening a precipitated unsupported iron catalyst by: preparing a precipitated unsupported iron catalyst containing copper and potassium; adding a solution comprising a structural promoter to the previously prepared catalyst; drying the mixture; and calcining the dried catalyst.03-05-2009
20090298681STABLE FERROUS-FERRIC NITRATE SOLUTIONS FOR FISCHER-TROPSCH CATALYST PREPARATION - A method of producing stable ferrous nitrate solution by dissolving iron in nitric acid to form a ferrous nitrate solution and maintaining the solution at a first temperature for a first time period, whereby the Fe(II) content of the ferrous nitrate solution changes by less than about 2% over a second time period. A method of producing stable Fe(II)/Fe(III) nitrate solution comprising ferrous nitrate and ferric nitrate and having a desired ratio of ferrous iron to ferric iron, including obtaining a stable ferrous nitrate solution; dissolving iron in nitric acid to form a ferric nitrate solution; maintaining the ferric nitrate solution at a second temperature for a third time period; and combining amounts of stable ferrous nitrate solution and ferric nitrate solution to produce the stable Fe(II)/Fe(III) nitrate solution. A method of preparing an iron catalyst is also described.12-03-2009
