| 20110107471 | SCANNING PROBE MICROSCOPE HAVING SUPPORT STAGE INCORPORATING A KINEMATIC FLEXURE ARRANGEMENT - A scanning probe microscope (SPM) has a piezoelectric actuator-based tube scanner to which a probe is attached and which is moveable in three planes by the application of a voltage to the piezoelectric tube. A set of flexures flex with the displacement of the tube and strain gauges attached to the flexures measure the flex of the flexures to provide feedback as to the displacement of the tube during the scanning of an object. The strain gauges and flexures form a kinematic sensing frame or arrangement in which a single constraint is provided for each degree of freedom and in which the constraints are at least substantially orthogonal to one another. | 05-05-2011 |

| 20100236150 | PLANT IRRIGATION APPARATUS - A plant irrigation apparatus for providing a fluid to one or more plants includes a plurality of platforms that are disposed in an array. Each platform has a support surface that is disposed at a platform elevation. A fluid reservoir for containing the fluid is defined at least partially in between adjacent platforms of the plurality of platforms. At least one fluid-regulating structure is configured to maintain a maximum elevation for the fluid, wherein the maximum elevation for the fluid is lower than the platform elevation. A capillary mat is supported by the plurality of platforms. At least a portion of the capillary mat is disposed within the fluid reservoir below the maximum elevation of the fluid. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20110030304 | Stackable Platform Assembly with Improved Coupler - A stackable platform assembly has an improved coupler for interconnecting a plurality of stackable platforms. The coupler has projections that are appropriately sized and spaced to facilitate frictional engagement of the coupler with platforms having different dimensions. | 02-10-2011 |

| 20120017123 | Time-Based Trace Facility - Method, system, and computer program product embodiments of a time-based trace facility for facilitating software debugging without interfering with the run-time behavior, performance or resource usage of the traced software are provided. The trace facility resides in a different address space than the target address space and uses different time-slices of CPU resources to execute the instructions in the address spaces. The trace facility uses a cross-memory mode to read the state data from the target address space in accordance with a time schedule. The trace facility writes the state data to a trace area, which may be located in either the target or trace address spaces or external storage. With this approach, the trace facility can read a large amount of state data frequently to construct the type of historical record needed to analysis run-time behavior, performance and resource usage. The trace facility may use a parameter file to configure a particular trace e.g. specify the target address space, one or more processing tasks within the target address space, a specific trace module, filters to extract specific state data, the time interval, the trace area, etc. | 01-19-2012 |
| 20120030175 | SYSTEM FOR OFFLOADING DATA ANALYIS OVERHEAD FROM A PRIMARY SITE TO A REMOTE SITE - A method for reducing the data analysis overhead on a production system is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, such a method includes replicating production data from a primary site to a remote site. A control data set containing information for directing analysis of the production data is generated at the primary site and replicated to the remote site. At the remote site, the method includes analyzing the production data as directed by the control data set by making use of time on a CPU located at the remote site. Analysis may involve executing a diagnostic routine and/or generating a log file documenting the results of the analysis. A corresponding apparatus, system, and computer program product are also disclosed and claimed herein. | 02-02-2012 |

| 20120046076 | MOBILE PHONE - A mobile device includes a first housing, a second housing, and a hinge assembly rotatably coupling the first housing to the second housing and enabling movement of the device between an open configuration and a closed configuration. When the device is in the open configuration, the first housing is planar with the second housing. | 02-23-2012 |
