20080243964 | DYNAMIC ALLOCATION OF PROGRAM LIBRARIES - A method of dynamic allocation of program libraries to an application server is provided. In addition to a static allocation of libraries to the server at initialization time, libraries can be added to or removed from the set available to a server while that server is active. New libraries are created as resource objects specifying a set of locations from which programs can be loaded. Each library is allocated a ranking which the system can use to identify its place in the loader's search order relative to other libraries. New library resources are dynamically installed and added to a list of available libraries, including the system's pre-defined library of locations, in a position in the loader's search order determined in accordance with the allocated ranking. | 10-02-2008 |
20080276239 | RECOVERY AND RESTART OF A BATCH APPLICATION - A method of operating a data processing system comprises executing a batch application, the executing comprising reading one or more inputs from one or more data files, performing updates on one or more records according to the or each input read from a data file, and issuing a syncpoint when said updates are completed. During the execution of the batch application, syncpoints are periodically issued and checkpoints are less frequently issued. Following detection of a failure of the batch application, the batch application is restarted with the last issued checkpoint, and the batch application is executed by reading one or more inputs from one or more data files, but not performing updates on said records, until the last issued syncpoint is reached. | 11-06-2008 |

20100025976 | OCCUPANT RESTRAINT - This invention relates to the field of load restraint systems, particularly occupant restraint systems that provide improved restraint by adopting more closely the contour of the occupant and particularly actively controlled restraint systems which respond to the external environment and hazardous situations. There is provided an articulated restraint which more closely adopts the profile of an occupant to provide a better and closer fitting restraint. Improving the fit of the restraint to the occupant provides better survivability in impact scenarios. The articulated restraint is formed from a series of elements which are joined by a connecting cord. When tension is applied to the cord the elements compress together and adopt the form of the occupant, further tension forces the elements to form a substantially rigid conformation which retains the occupant in a seat. There is further provided an active restraint system for actively controlling the tension in the connecting cord in response to external forces or hazardous events. The restraint and active restraint system may be used in place of conventional five point harnesses and seat belts to provide improved survivability in impacts and better restraint in the seating position for manoeuvres resulting in significant G-forces. | 02-04-2010 |

20110127405 | OPTICAL STIMULATION OF PHOTOSENSITIZED CELLS - This invention describes a device for optical stimulation of cells and other biological structures. It has an ability to target multiple cells and/or multiple sub-cellular targets. The stimulation optical pattern on each cell can be independently controlled with individual frequencies. The light sensitivity of the cells can be imparted as a result of genetic expression of surface and/or subsurface proteins, chemical modification of existing proteins, or via the release of caged entities which in turn act to stimulate the cell through chemical means. The embodiment is capable of functioning on neurons but can also be used for other cells. It can perform optimal stimulation with sub-cellular resolutions, record the activity of the targeted cells and perform processing to ensure calibration. | 06-02-2011 |
