| 20110078207 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR UNRESTRICTED REPORTING OF ALERT STATES FOR MANAGED OBJECTS, REGARDLESS OF TYPE - A method of identifying a unique object nested within a hierarchy of objects in a computing system includes identifying the unique object by its class and instance in a syntax readable by the computing system; identifying at least one parent object by its class and instance in the syntax; and defining a relationship between the unique object and the parent object in the syntax; wherein an alert can be issued for the unique object. An apparatus for identifying a unique object nested within a hierarchy of objects in a computing system includes a first identify module, a second identify module, and a define module. The first identify module identifies the unique object by its class and instance in a syntax readable by the computing system. The second identify module identifies at least one parent object by its class and instance in the syntax. And, the define module that defines a relationship between the unique object and the parent object in the syntax. An alert can be issued for the unique object. | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110078605 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISPLAYING A MONITORED STATE WITH NO EXPLICIT CONNECTION - A user display window for visually indicating a monitored connection state of a managed object in a computing system includes a display pane for displaying visual representations of views, systems, or objects of the computing system, wherein the managed object is represented with a first icon and the connection state is represented with an outline around the first icon. A user can visually see the connection state of any managed object within the computing system by viewing the display plane and seeing the outline around the first icon. A method for visually indicating a monitored connection state of a managed object in a computing system includes representing the managed object with a first icon; representing the connection state with a first representation; and superimposing the first icon on the first representation. An apparatus for visually indicating a monitored connection state of a managed object in a computing system includes a first represent module, a second represent module, and a superimposing module. The first represent module represents the managed object with a first icon. The second represent module represents the connection state with a first representation. The superimposing module superimposes the first icon on the first representation. | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110078618 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISPLAYING MULTIPLE STATES WITHIN A SINGLE IMAGE - A user display window that displays a managed object and its state within a single image includes a display pane for displaying a visual image, wherein a first icon represents the managed object and a second icon represents the state of the managed icon and the first icon is superimposed over the second icon to create the visual image. A user can visually see the managed object and its state within the computing system. A method for visually indicating a managed object and its state within a single image in a computing system includes representing the managed object with a first icon; representing the state of the managed object with a second icon; and superimposing the first icon on the second icon such that the resulting image provides a visual indication of the managed object and its state. An apparatus for visually indicating a managed object and its state within a single image in a computing system includes a first represent module that represents the managed object with a first icon; a second represent module that represents the state of the managed object with a second icon; and a superimpose module that superimposes the first icon on the second icon such that the resulting image provides a visual indication of the managed object and its state. | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110154232 | SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR MANAGING OBJECT ALERTS - A method for providing information regarding a monitored distributed computer system includes applying an object filter to a plurality of monitored objects, the object filter specifying an object state that is more complex than a single property value, and raising an alert upon at least one of the monitored objects satisfying the object state. | 06-23-2011 |

| 20110078619 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR USER-DEFINED MANAGED OBJECTS - An apparatus creates a user-defined .NET class within an operational control environment of distributed computing systems. The apparatus includes a define module that allows a user to create a new class and define properties for the new class in a specification. After the user creates the new class, the define module creates a .NET class based on the specification. In addition, a method for creating a user-defined .NET class within an operational control environment of distributed computing systems includes receiving a user-defined class; receiving user-defined properties for the user-defined class; and creating a .NET class based on the user-defined class and properties. | 03-31-2011 |

| 20080210076 | STUD PUNCH - A stud punch head for a power tool includes a head housing and a first arm movably coupled to the head housing. The first arm supports a punch. The stud punch head also includes a second arm movably coupled to the head housing and relative to the first arm. The second arm supports a die opposite the punch. The stud punch head also includes a drive mechanism positioned at least partially within the head housing and operatively coupled to a motor of the power tool. The drive mechanism is operable to move the first arm and the second arm toward and away from each other. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20100095537 | TOOL AND METHOD OF USING SAME - The invention relates to a reciprocating saw that includes a reciprocatable spindle for supporting a saw blade for reciprocating sawing movement. A body houses a motor and a drive mechanism driven by the motor. The drive mechanism selectively drives the spindle and the body supports the spindle. A grip extends outwardly from the body adjacent a center of gravity of the saw so as to allow an operator to operate the reciprocating saw with a first hand and support a workpiece being cut with a second hand. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100175942 | MULTI-POSITION FOOTBOARD - A footboard assembly configured to be coupled to a motorcycle supported in a vertically upright position. The footboard assembly includes a footboard and a footpeg arm. The footboard is configured to couple to the motorcycle and to support a foot of a rider. A top surface of the footboard defines a foot support plane. The footpeg arm includes an attachment portion pivotally coupled to the footboard about a pivot axis that is not parallel to the foot support plane. The footpeg arm includes a footpeg portion spaced from the attachment portion. The footpeg arm pivots about the pivot axis between a stowed position, in which the footpeg portion defines a first height and a deployed position, in which the footpeg portion defines a second height higher than the first height. | 07-15-2010 |

| 20090142852 | BACTERIORHODOPSIN-BASED SENSORS - A sensor comprising a membrane containing bacteriorhodopsin. In one embodiment, the sensor comprises a layer of purple membrane between a first and a second electrode, wherein the electrodes are connected to a circuit such that a signal is produced when a charge is transferred across the membrane. In another embodiment, the sensor comprises a field effect transistor with a layer of purple membrane deposited on the gate. The layer of purple membrane may be further functionalized by adding fluorophores to the layer of purple membrane. The fluorophores may be deposited adjacent to the layer of purple membrane, or the fluorophores may be attached to the layer of purple membrane with linkages. The fluorophores or linkages between the fluorophores and the purple membrane may be functionalized with receptors to produce sensors for targeted chemical or biological species. | 06-04-2009 |
