Abstract: The apparatus and method of the present invention provides a process that can be implemented by a human operator and a computing device to analyze and display human skin images. The system acquires a digital image from a camera or scanner. Subsequently, the system determines which area(s) of the image to analyze using landmarks such as the corner of the eye. The determined areas are then analyzed to locate skin defects such as red spots, and the defects are visually identified on a display. A severity is calculated for the defects and the severity is compared to an average skin severity associated with a population of people. In addition, a simulation is generated and displayed showing an improvement to the defect areas.

Abstract: A wear indicator (14) comprises an indicating edge (20) which interacts with a reference surface formed by a surface of the pad (7) of the disc brake (1) opposed to the pad (6) with which the indicator is associated. The increase of the wear on the friction material (10, 10') causes said pads (6, 7) to move progressively toward each other. Consequently, the aperture (40) delimited by the indicating edge (20) and by the reference surface (36) is progressively closed. The described wear indicator can be used to measure even small variations of the thickness of the layer of friction material, since, as the wear increases, both the indicating edge (20) and the reference surface (36) move toward each other.

Abstract: A method and system is provided for migrating processes from one virtual machine to another on a network. To migrate the external state of a process, the process may use a network service connection system or a compact network service connection system for accessing resources external to the virtual machine. A process may be migratable separately from other processes. A process may have an in-memory heap used for the execution of the process, a virtual heap that may include the entire heap of the process including at least a portion of the runtime environment, and a persistent heap where the virtual heap may be checkpointed. In one embodiment, the virtual heap may serve as the persistent heap. In another embodiment, the virtual heap may be checkpointed to a separate, distinct persistent heap. The combination of the in-memory heap, the virtual heap, and the persistent store may be referred to as a virtual persistent heap. One embodiment of a method for migrating an application may include checkpointing the application to a persistent heap. Current leases to local and/or remote resources may be expired. The persistent state of the process may be packaged in the persistent heap and sent to the node where the process is to migrate. A transaction mechanism may be used, where the process's persistent state is copied and committed as having migrated on both the sending and receiving nodes. The state of the process may then be reconstituted into a new virtual persistent heap on the node where the application migrated. Leases to local and/or remote resources for the process may be re-established. The process may then resume execution on the node where it migrated. In one embodiment, a versioning mechanism may be used whereby nodes where a process once lived may cache a previous state. In addition, a user interface (UI) may be provided to manage process checkpoints.

Abstract: A range of a wavefront sensor is extended by focusing collimated light onto a lenslet array, an output creating a grid formed by edges of the lenslets and a reference spot in the members of the grid. Each reference spot has a known relationship to the grid member and a centroid. A relationship between the reference centroids is determined. Next a wavefront emanating from an eye is focused onto the lenslet array, with the output from the lenslet array forming the grid and aberrated eye spots thereon, each eye spot having a centroid. A relationship between the eye spot centroids is determined. One known relationship between one reference centroid and the centroid of one eye spot is identified. Finally, at least some of the remaining relationships between the reference centroids and the eye spot centroids are determined. The determined relationships provide a measure indicative of the eye aberration.
