| 20100091498 | LOW PROFILE SIDE EMISSION TIR LENS FOR LED - A low profile side-emitting lens for an LED die has two tiers of different waveguides radially extending out from a center side-emitting lens. An LED emits light into the center side-emitting lens, which has a curved surface that internally reflects the LED light outward approximately parallel to the top surface of the LED die. The center lens has a height of 2 mm, required for reflecting the LED light outward. Radially extending from the periphery of the bottom half of the center lens is a bottom tier of waveguides, each having a height of 1 mm, and radially extending from the periphery of the top half of the center lens is a top tier of waveguides, each having a height of 1 mm. The light output areas of the top and bottom tiers of waveguides are parallel with each other so that the 2 mm high side emission is reduced to a 1 mm side emission without reducing the emission area. | 04-15-2010 |

| 20110295882 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A COMPOSITE VIEW OBJECT AND SQL BYPASS IN A BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE SERVER - Systems and methods are described for performing a SQL bypass in a business intelligence (BI) server environment. The BI server initially receives a SQL query and constructs an extensible markup language (XML) representation of the SQL query. The XML representation is sent to an application server that hosts an application developer framework (ADF). The ADF receives the XML representation of the SQL query and constructs a composite view object at runtime, to access the appropriate data. It then generates a database-specific query based on the composite view object and returns it to the BI server. The BI server replans the database-specific query and sends it to a database storing the data. | 12-01-2011 |

| 20080263276 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR EVALUATING AND IMPROVING DISK ACCESS TIME IN A RAID SYSTEM - Techniques for improving access time in data storage systems are disclosed. These techniques can be used to prevent undesirable access delays that are often experienced in conventional storage systems. “Slow-access” can be defined as an access operation that does not successfully complete within a predetermined amount of time. The “slow-access” time can, for example, be defined based on a system requirement, specification, or a particular need of a specific application. As such, when detected “slow-access” indicates a potential performance problem that can manifest in undesirable effects. A data storage system is evaluated for potential performance problems by scanning it for “slow-access.” In addition, preventative measures are taken to prevent occurrence of a “slow-access” once it has been identified. These measures can prevent the undesirable effects experienced in conventional storage systems. This also means that specific system or application requirements can be certified and met. | 10-23-2008 |
