Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring at least one network connected
device (monitored device) using a controller is disclosed. More specifically, a
method and apparatus for easily creating device objects representing the monitored
device is described. Initially, the controller/monitoring system attempts to establish
communication with the monitored device. If the controller cannot be configured
to interface with the monitored device, configuration information, such as
manufacturer, model, and a unique identifier from the monitored device are
obtained. In the process of determining the configuration information, a
determination is made to find out if the monitored device is supported by the
controller using information from System Support Database (SSD). A device
object is created using information from the SSD, thus establishing a
communication protocol between the controller and the monitored device
Subsequently, configuration information for the monitored device is updated in the
System Configuration Database (SCD).

Abstract: The method facilitates sealing a control rod drive (CRD) housing (50) to a stub
tube (46) in a reactor pressure vessel of a nuclear reactor, if any cracks
develop proximate a heat affected zone (99) of the stub tube (46) at a CRD
housing re-attachment weld (78). The method includes cutting the CRD
housing (50) to separate an upper portion (76) of the CRD housing (50) from
a lower portion (92) of the CRD housing (50). The lower portion (92) remains
in place and in substantial alignment with the upper portion (76) of the CRD
housing (50). A lower portion member, which may be the lower portion (92)
that was cut, is re-attached to the reactor vessel by a re-attachment weld (97)
at a location below potential differential leakage paths (80, 84) along the CRD
housing (50). The heat affected zone (e.g., at the re-attachment weld) is
covered with a corrosion resistant material (89) to prevent future leaking, and
to protect the weld (97) from inter-granular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC).

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided to restore the configuration of a network
device. A configuration manager in a network device saves a version of the configuration of
the network device by storing the configuration data in an format that conforms to a standard
markup language such as the extended markup language (XML). The format includes a
sequence of corresponding tags and values that represent the content of the internal data
structures in the memory of the router that comprise the saved version of the configuration.
At the time of restoration, an parser is used to parse the values from the tags and the
configuration manager restores the contents of the internal data structures in the memory of
the router to the parsed values in accordance with the corresponding tags.

Abstract: A marine vessel air induction system (10) introduces air into an under-hull cavity (12) bounded by an underside (31), first and second sides (32), and fore and aft planing surfaces (22, 26). An air inlet (18) receives ambient air. A plenum (20) receives air from the inlet. A fore planing surface has a trailing edge. The trailing edge and the plenum define a step (50) that communicates with the plenum to generate a first pressure that is less than ambient pressure as a free stream of water moves past the step. Air communicated from the plenum is entrainable in the water. A mixing chamber (24) communicates with the step, and the step and the mixing chamber cooperate to permit kinetic energy of the water to increase pressure of entrained air. At an aft end of the mixing chamber, the entrained air exerts a second pressure that is greater than ambient. Air is exhausted upwardly into the cavity.

Abstract: Enhanced airbag modules and associated methods are provided. An airbag module according to the invention may have a cushion with an inflatable protection zone and a flexible venting tube coupled to the inflatable protection zone. A closure mechanism may be used to compress the flexible venting tube against an anchoring member, such as a housing of the airbag module or a vehicle feature, until venting through the flexible venting tube is needed. The closure mechanism may then be actuated, for example, by igniting a pyrotechnic within a specially designed bolt of the closure mechanism. The bolt may, for example, have a bore with a pyrotechnic initiator molded-in-place within the bore. The bolt may fracture to open the closure mechanism, thereby permitting inflation gas to flow out of the inflatable protection zone via the flexible venting tube.

Abstract: Devices and methods for improving the function of a valve (e.g., mitral valve) by positioning an implantable device outside and adjacent the heart wall such that the device alters the shape of the heart wall acting on the valve. The implantable device may alter the shape of the heart wall acting on the valve by applying an inward force and/or by circumferential shortening (cinching). The shape change of the heart wall acting on the valve is sufficient to change the function of the valve, and may increase coaptation of the leaflets, for example, to reduce regurgitation.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products that provide for a runtime
messaging infrastructure, which abstracts send and receive operations for exchanging
messages with partner endpoint. The messaging infrastructure improves availability
and scalability of a message application by improving on the availability and
scalability of the underlying message transports. In particular, availability and
scalability are improved by linking the message application at runtime with any
number of the message transports, without the message application specifying a
transport at development time. The message infrastructure receives instructions from
the message application specifying end-to-end delivery assurances. The infrastructure
uses transports in order to fulfill the specified delivery assurance, and creates a link
between the message application and transports for use in exchanging messages.
Session state storage can be maintained in a pluggable store, which could be, for
example, a durable database store or an application memory store.

Abstract: Oligomeric compounds including oligoribonucleotides and oligoribonucleosides
are provided that have subsequences of 2'-pentoribofuranosyl nucleosides that activate
dsRNase. The oligoribonucleotides and oligoribonucleosides can include substituent
groups for increasing binding affinity to complementary nucleic acid strand as well as
substituent groups for increasing nuclease resistance. The oligomeric compounds are
useful for diagnostics and other research purposes, for modulating the expression of a
protein in organisms, and for the diagnosis, detection and treatment of other conditions
susceptible to oligonucleotide therapeutics. Also included in the invention are mammalian
ribonucleases, i.e., enzymes that degrade RNA, and substrates for such ribonucleases.
Such ribonuclease is referred to herein as a dsRNase, wherein "ds" indicates the RNase's
specificity for certain double-stranded RNA substrates. The artificial substrates for the
dsRNases described herein are useful in preparing affinity matrices for purifying
mammalian ribonuclease as well as non-degradative RNA-binding proteins.
