| 20110110490 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR X-RAY RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGING - Embodiments of the invention relate to a method for x-ray radiography and apparatus for use in x-ray radiography. Specific embodiments can utilize a grid having a plurality of apertures therethrough with optical waveguides positioned in the apertures. The optical waveguides can incorporate a scintillating material, preferably throughout, that absorbs incident x-ray radiation and emits light that is then guided by the optical waveguide. In a specific embodiment, x-ray radiation incident on a first end of the aperture is absorbed by the scintillating material in the optical waveguide and light is emitted by the same scintillating material, a portion of which is guided by the optical waveguide to a second end of the aperture. In addition, secondary electrons created by absorption of the x-ray radiation by the scintillating material can be absorbed by the scintillating material to create more light such that a magnification effect can occur. The light exiting the second end of the aperture can then be detected. | 05-12-2011 |

| 20080235072 | ACHIEVING RECURRING ITEM RECORDINGS FROM CALENDARING APPLICATIONS OVER LOB SYSTEMS - Recurring appointment items in a calendaring application are synchronized and recorded in a backend Line Of Business (LOB) service. Items marked in the calendaring application for time recording are used to create a recurring bound item with extended properties. A sweeper module scans on every run the mailbox for such recurring bound items. Occurrences of bound recurring appointments, which occur between the last scan and the current scan are determined and detached from the corresponding recurring series such that standalone bound items are created for such occurrences that can be recognized by an LOB application. Entries for bound items are retrieved from a client data store and synchronized it with the backend LOB service through a create-, update-, or delete-operation request. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20080281972 | SECURE SHARING OF LOB BOUND INFORMATION IN CLIENT APPLICATIONS - Secure sharing of bound information is enabled in client applications associated with a backend LOB service. Bound item IDs are assigned to newly created bound items by a client, the items synchronized with the LOB system, a correlation ID received in response to the synchronization, and the two IDs mapped. A reverse sequence of actions is performed when the LOB service creates the bound item. In response to an attempt by a client to exchange bound information, the item is placed in a pending state and allowed to be received by a receiver upon successful completion of data transfer and LOB system permission of the exchange passing the bound item ID and the correlation ID. If the LOB system rejects the exchange, the item is placed in an unbound state and the receiver not allowed to receive the bound information. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090287762 | BLENDING SINGLE-MASTER AND MULTI-MASTER DATA SYNCHRONIZATION TECHNIQUES - Architecture that maintains the user experience as close as possible to the user experience when dealing with the usual/regular forms and data provided in an office application when dealing with hybrid forms and hybrid data. Synchronization of the hybrid data to single-master and multi-masters systems is accomplished when the associated hybrid client goes offline, changes are made to the hybrid data, and then the client comes back online. For example, where the single-master system is a line-of-business (LOB) server system and the multi-master system is an officer server that employs collaboration capability, the architecture allows office users to access, manipulate, and share LOB entity information using collaborative means, while at the same time, ensuring data and business process consistency for the LOB entity in the LOB system. | 11-19-2009 |
| 20090300649 | Sharing An Object Among Multiple Applications - Allowing multiple software applications to share an object of an application system is provided. Each of the multiple software applications is associated with a line of business (LOB) system and is associated with a solution ID. The application system may receive a request to establish a first binding between the object and a first LOB entity instance for a first software application. The first binding between the object and the first LOB entity instance may then be established. The application system may further receive a request to establish a second binding between the object and a second LOB entity instance for a second software application. The second binding between the object and the second LOB entity instance will be established when the first and second software applications have matching solution IDs and compatible sharing levels to the object. The application system may therefore establish user interface and data sharing between the first and second LOB entity instances in the object. | 12-03-2009 |
| 20100064105 | Leveraging Synchronous Communication Protocols to Enable Asynchronous Application and Line-of-Business Behaviors - Methods and systems of leveraging synchronous communication protocols to enable asynchronous application and line of business behaviors. An application platform may be provided and configured to provide a pending state for any synchronous operation. The pending state may indicate that the operation has not been completed yet. For an application which may know how to track an operation that has a pending state, the application may control when the operation enters and exits the pending state. The application may communicate to the application platform to hold off on other operations dependent upon the pending operation when the pending operation is not complete. For an application which does not know how to track an operation that has a pending state, the application platform may ignore the pending state of the operation and proceed to other operations. Accordingly, the synchronous user experience is preserved where a straightforward, down-level user interface and experience is appropriate. The user interface and experience is also extended when an application knows how to interpret and present the asynchronous nature of various underlying systems. | 03-11-2010 |
