| 20110016354 | FAULT TOLERANT BATCH PROCESSING - Among other aspects disclosed are a method and system for processing a batch of input data in a fault tolerant manner. The method includes reading a batch of input data including a plurality of records from one or more data sources and passing the batch through a dataflow graph. The dataflow graph includes two or more nodes representing components connected by links representing flows of data between the components. At least one but fewer than all of the components includes a checkpoint process for an action performed for each of multiple units of work associated with one or more of the records. The checkpoint process includes opening a checkpoint buffer stored in non-volatile memory at the start of processing for the batch. For each unit of work from the batch, if a result from performing the action for the unit of work was previously saved in the checkpoint buffer, the saved result is used to complete processing of the unit of work without performing the action again. If a result from performing the action for the unit of work is not saved in the checkpoint buffer. The action is performed to complete processing of the unit of work and the result from performing the action is saved in the checkpoint buffer. | 01-20-2011 |
| 20110078500 | PROCESSING TRANSACTIONS IN GRAPH-BASED APPLICATIONS - A graph-based computation has a plurality of nodes representing graph components connected by one or more links representing data flows between the components. Preparing the computation includes: identifying at least a first set of components to process a plurality of transactions in the computation; and associating with a first transaction a first group of one or more data records and data operations corresponding to the data records, and associating with a second transaction a second group of one or more data records and data operations corresponding to the data records. Executing the computation to process at least the first and second transactions includes delaying execution by the first set of components of a data operation corresponding to an initial data record of the second group until after execution by the first set of components of a data operation corresponding to a final data record of the first group. | 03-31-2011 |

| 20110050394 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PRESSURE-BASED AUTHENTICATION OF AN INPUT ON A TOUCH SCREEN - Systems and methods are provided for authenticating an input on a touch screen. A method comprises obtaining one or more pressure metrics for an input by a user on a touch screen that is being proffered as that of a known user. Each pressure metric corresponds to a pressure applied to the touch screen by the user at a respective impression location of the input. The method further comprises authenticating the user as the known user based at least in part on the one or more pressure metrics. | 03-03-2011 |

| 20090152295 | Container Assembly - A container assembly has a first container that operably houses a second container. The first container is configured to hold a first flowable substance, and the second container is configured to hold a second flowable substance. The second container is rupturable, preferably by manipulation through the first container, wherein the second flowable substance can mix with the first flowable substance to form a mixture. The first container is also rupturable to dispense the mixture therefrom. | 06-18-2009 |
