Title: Selective delta validation of a shared artifact
Inventor: CHAN ALLEN V C
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 2009-10-30
Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented process for selective delta validation of a shared artifact receives a notification associated with a shared artifact, determines whether a unique key exists for the shared artifact in a symbol data structure, and responsive to a determination that the unique key exists, determines whether an update from an external source occurred. Responsive to a determination that the update occurred from an external source, receives a timestamp associated with the unique key from the symbol data structure to form a received timestamp, determines whether the received timestamp is prior to a last modification time, and responsive to a determination that the received timestamp is prior to the last modification time, performs a delta validation of the shared artifact.

Title: Monitoring web service transactions
Inventor: DREES TIM
IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 2008-06-27
Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring web service transactions include a monitoring server that is configured to monitor a web service transaction. The monitoring server allows a user to describe a sequence of web service requests that in combi-nation define a web service transaction. The monitoring server sends out the web service requests in sequence to remote agents that are deployed in geographically diverse locations. The agents send the requests to the target web service and the results are provided back to the monitoring server. The monitoring server receives the results and then dynamically constructs the next request in the series based on the sequence of requests from the user and data from the response to a prior request. The dynamically constructed next request is then sent to remote agents for execution and the results are provided to the monitoring server.

Title: Hybrid mass spectrometer with branched ion path and switch
Inventor: SCHOEN ALAN E
IPC: H01J49/06
Filed: 2008-09-19
Abstract: A hybrid mass spectrometer has a branched ion path. A first ion path within the branched ion path operates as a triple quadrupole instrument having a mass selection device, collision cell, and first mass analyzer and provides information on a specific m/z ratio corresponding to ions of interest in a sample. A second ion path within the branched ion path includes a second mass analyzer in the form of an electrostatic trap or other ion trap device. A  branched ion transfer device may provide the branched ion path and may include the collision cell. A controller actuates an ion path switch in the branched ion transfer device and diverts from the first ion path to the second ion path in response to a triggering event. Ions at or near the m/z ratio of interest are then analyzed in the trap to obtain more detailed information of a full spectrum.
