20140122544 | FILE WRAPPER SUPPORTING VIRTUAL PATHS AND CONDITIONAL LOGIC - An electronic file wrapper contains one or more files that are associated with virtual paths and conditional logic that collectively define a presentation sequence for the one or more files, access control, version control, and enables the reporting of usage metrics that are responsive to a variety of access request parameters. The file wrapper may include one or more of a file wrapper identifier, a version identifier, and an encrypted portion that contains the one or more files in encrypted form. The file wrapper identifier refers to the applicable and appropriate virtual path and conditional logic definitions contained within a database or other suitable information source that is independent of the file wrapper for a given set of access request parameters. The file wrapper may be constructed by an authoring application program or program component, and may be interpreted and presented by a viewer application program or program component. | 05-01-2014 |

20110209778 | in Valves - This invention relates to a valve comprising a housing having first and second apertures for the ingress and egress of fluid into/from a passageway located within the housing extending indirectly from the first to the second aperture. The passageway forms an air-lock. The valve further comprises at least one bleed valve for allowing fluid out of the passageway at a rate slower than fluid is able to enter one of the apertures. A liquid entering one of the apertures is prohibited from passing along the passageway to the other of the apertures until substantially all air within the valve has bled out of the bleed valve. | 09-01-2011 |

20140195490 | UNORDERED IDEMPOTENT LOGICAL REPLICATION OPERATIONS - A method and apparatus for replicating a data container of a source storage server at the logical level in an unordered stream of individual data units are described. In certain embodiments, the replication operations can be performed without regard to the differences in geometry of physical persistent storage of the source and destination storage servers and without regard to the differences in data container format of the source and destination storage servers. An initial replication operation of the source data container is performed by transferring the data objects within the source data container to a replica data container in the destination storage server as an unordered stream of individual data units while preserving data object identifiers of the source data objects. Afterwards, incremental replication operations can be performed to capture modifications to the source data container over time after the initial replication operation. | 07-10-2014 |
