Abstract:
To back up data stored in a distributed database system, a backup utility is configured with information regarding locations of data stored in the distributed database system having a plurality of nodes. The backup utility retrieves, based on the information regarding locations of data stored in the distributed database system, backup data from the plurality of nodes for backup storage.
Abstract:
A method of archiving a set of source tables in a database system. Each source table has a plurality of rows. Initially, a consistency point for the set of source tables is established. The database system creates a log record for each change (insert, modify, or delete) effected to a row of the source tables subsequent to the consistency point. Substantially all source table rows are copied to an archive (a data storage object that is external to the database system). Then the accumulated log records for the affected source tables are distilled and appended to the archive.
Abstract:
A network-based publication system, to publish data over a communications network, includes an interface to receive, via the communications network and from a first user, user data to be published by a network-based publication system. The publication system further includes a publisher component to generate publication data (e.g., an HTML document) including the user data and function modifying code. The publisher component generates the publication data in accordance with a publication format. The interface publishes the publication data via the communications network. The function modifying code is interpreted and executed, at a browser application, to disable (or modify) least one function of programming language supported by the browser application.
Abstract:
Bicyclic heteroaromatic derivatives of formula (1) are described: F (1) where: the dashed line joining A and C(Ra) is present and represents a bond and A is a —N═ atom or a —C(Rb)═ group, or the dashed line is absent and A is a —N(Rb)—, or —C(Rb)(Rc)—group; X is an —O—, —S— or substituted nitrogen atom or a —S(O)—, —S(O2)— or —NH-group; Y is a nitrogen or substituted carbon atom or a —CH═ group; n is zero or the integer 1; Alk1 is an optionally substituted aliphatic or heteroaliphatic chain L1 is a covalent bond or a linker atom or group; Cy1 is a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted cycloaliphatic, polycycloaliphatic, heterocycloaliphatic, polyheterocycloaliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic group; Ar is an optionally substituted aromatic or heteroaromatic group; and the remaining substituents are defined in the specification. The compounds are potent and selective inhibitors of p38 kinase and are of use in the prophylaxis and treatment of immune or inflammatory disorders.
Abstract:
An occlusion for use in a peristaltic pump includes independently movable occlusion fingers. The fingers are integrally formed as a single unitary body.
Abstract:
A peristaltic pump device and method includes at least one roller of a rotor rotatable with respect to an occlusion with a substantially constant radius. A depression is formed in the occlusion and extends beyond the substantially constant radius of the occlusion.
