Title: Devices for transcutaneous delivery of vaccines and transdermal delivery of drugs and uses thereof
Inventor: KAPLAN JONATHAN I
IPC: A61M35/00
Filed: 2006-09-05
Abstract: The invention provides devices for the disruption of one or more layers of skin and methods of their use to administer therapeutic agents, e.g., antigens or drugs. The devices are designed to disrupt a defined area of skin. The defined area can approximate the area that a patch or other suitable vehicle for therapeutic agent, e.g., drug or vaccine, delivery is designed to contact.  Exemplary devices employ a mask to define the area to be disrupted. Other devices disrupt a defined area by rotating in place. For devices that employ a mask that is secured to the skin, the invention provides methods of disrupting the stratum corneum by first securing the mask to the skin and then disrupting the skin. For rotating devices, the disrupting member is simply placed against the skin and actuated to effect disruption.

Abstract: A wellhead completion assembly has a head connected to surface casing. A rotatable flange or the like can be used to connect various components to a threaded end of the head. A casing hanger installs in the head, and the hanger's upper end extends beyond the head's top edge. This exposed end has an external threaded connection to connect to various wellhead components using a rotatable flange or the like. For example, a locking ring can threadably connect to the head's threaded end to support the hanger in the head. Then, a rotatable flange can threadably connect to the hanger's exposed end so that another component, such as a completion spool or gate valve, can nippled up directly to the hanger.  When the hanger is fluted, a pack-off assembly can allow testing off inner and outer sealing integrity via a test port accessible through an opening in the locking ring.

Abstract: [PROBLEMS] In a business system, it is important to reduce the time of a temporary service interrupt due to failure of a server or a network. The current failure countermeasure is generally performed by a failure detection and a handover. However, the failure detection requires at least 10 seconds to several minutes and the service interrupt time is longer than this, which causes a significant problem. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] Suggested is a system for retransmitting process to a backup server firm from a client if no response is received for a certain time without waiting for the failure detection. A transaction process mechanism includes a transaction start process mechanism combining an exclusive control using the process authority Token and data matching and a commit process mechanism combining the commit enabled/disabled judgment based on the distributed agreement and the update data replication. This mechanism realized a system capable of reducing the service stop time upon failure occurrence to a time of such an order that the service does not stop when viewed from the client.
