Abstract: Techniques of "data deduplication" have been developed to reduce data storage needs by eliminating redundant copies of data. Deduplication is able to reduce the required storage capacity since only the unique data is stored. This has obvious cost benefits for the organisation, but deduplication techniques have a significant cost and therefore a business case must be prepared for them. However, the information essential for the preparation of that business case is the degree by which demand for storage space is reduced - information that only becomes available after implementation. We describe a low-cost technical means of estimating the benefits obtainable from implementing a deduplication appliance in advance of actually doing so. We propose that the data gathered as part of a routine backup or archival system (which we will refer to as a "data management system") be used as the information source, and that an estimating algorithm be applied to this data in order to create an estimate of the benefits obtainable from implementing a deduplication system. Such data, which may be present in a structured database, will contain the basic information of file names, locations, sizes and dates, and can be queried off-line to identify possible or likely candidates for deduplication and estimate the file storage space savings obtainable.

Abstract: A modular battery pack comprising multiple modular batteries (10) arranged in series, in parallel, or in series-parallel combinations is described. Each of the modular batteries comprises a first pair of opposed keyed side walls (26,32) for series connection between adjacent modular batteries, and a second pair of opposed keyed side walls (38,44) for parallel connection between adjacent modular batteries. The modular batteries are only able to connect to each other when the keys are matched and aligned. Additionally, the opposed end walls of the modular batteries have specifically configured terminals (50,52,54) that prevent the possibility of making undesired connections between adjacent modular batteries.

Inventor: RUSSELL JAMES A
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2004-03-19
Abstract: The invention provides methods and kits for obtaining a prognosis for a patient having or at risk of developing an inflammatory condition. The method generally comprises determining a Plasminogen Activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) genotype of a patient for one or more polymorphisms in the PAT-1 gene of the patient, comparing the determined genotype with known genotypes for the polymorphism that correspond with the ability of the patient to recover from the inflammatory condition and identifying patients based on their prognosis. PAI-1 genotype screening may be useful in identifying patients who would benefit from increased monitoring by healthcare professionals, and/or possible therapeutic intervention, if the patient were to develop inflammation due to systematic inflammation response syndrome (SIRS), bacterial infection, bacteraemia, sepsis, septic shock, organ dysfunction, and trauma. The invention also provides for methods of identifying other polymorphisms that correspond with the ability of the patients to recover from the inflammatory condition.

Abstract: Method for selecting a transmission channel, within a series of transmission channels in a time division multiple access (TDMA) communications system, to which assign a specific timeslot for communication. As conventional methods, the method comprises the steps of receiving the quality of transmission of each channel  C i    in each time slot, storing C i  during a predefined time window  T  comprising a specific number of timeslots. Contrary to conventional methods, the method of the invention further comprises the step of selecting at least one channel that has the best current quality of transmission  C i    with respect to a function of the total decrease of quality of transmission between each timeslot of the time window  T  and the current timeslot. Therefore, for a channel to be chosen, the channel must have an acceptable current quality of transmission and must not have had its quality decreased significantly during the time window  T.

Abstract: Microneedle sheets are produced by injecting a needle raw material into a stamper formed with a concavity in a base material. However, because the stamper concavity is very small, there is the problem that air cannot escape due to air and surface tension of the material, thereby preventing a needle from being formed in part. The present invention provides a stamper for producing a microneedle sheet. The stamper comprises a sheet-like base material including a conical concavity formed from a first surface of the sheet-like base material toward a second surface thereof; and a through-hole formed from a bottom of the concavity toward the second surface. Air can escape via this through-hole, allowing a microneedle sheet which is filled with a needle raw material as far as the bottom of the concavity to be obtained.
