20120167159 | POLICY-BASED ACCESS TO VIRTUALIZED APPLICATIONS - When a request is received to execute a virtualized application, an application virtualization client component evaluates an execution policy to determine if the application may be executed. If the application virtualization client component determines based on the execution policy that the virtualized application may be executed, the application virtualization client component publishes the virtualized application. The application virtualization client component publishes the application by making the virtualized application available for execution if the application is installed, and installing the virtualized application if it is not installed. The application virtualization client component also evaluates the execution policy during execution of the virtualized application. If the application virtualization client component determines that the execution policy is no longer satisfied, the application virtualization client component unpublishes the virtualized application, thereby preventing execution of the virtualized application. | 06-28-2012 |

20120158819 | POLICY-BASED APPLICATION DELIVERY - Technologies are described herein for automatically selecting a best application delivery method based on a centrally maintained policy. An agent executing on a user computing device receives a request to initiate an application. The agent requests a centrally maintained application placement policy document regarding the application program from a policy server. The application placement policy document may describe a policy for determining a method for delivery of the application to the user computing device based on a number of conditions.

20120159570 | PROVIDING A SECURITY BOUNDARY - In order to enable potentially conflicting applications to execute on the same computer, application programming interface (API) calls are intercepted when an application attempts to access a computer system's resources. During a learning mode of operation, a security monitor stores data in a security monitor database identifying which applications are allowed to access the computer system resources. At runtime of an application, the security monitor operates in an enforcement mode and utilizes the contents of the security monitor database to determine if an application is permitted to access system resources. If data associated with the application is located in the security monitor database, the application is allowed to access computer system resources, if data associated with the application is not located in the security monitor database, the application is not allowed to access computer system resources. | 06-21-2012 |
20120166597 | SATISFYING APPLICATION DEPENDENCIES - The dependencies of an application are identified by intercepting application programming interface calls made by an application. A determination is then made at the runtime of the application as to whether the dependencies of the application are present. If the dependencies are not present, a client device upon which the application is executing is configured such that the dependencies are present and are made available only to the authorized application. If the dependencies are present and the application is authorized to interact with the dependencies, the application is permitted to execute. | 06-28-2012 |

20120167117 | STORING AND RESUMING APPLICATION RUNTIME STATE - Execution of an application is suspended and the runtime state of the application is collected and persisted. Maintenance operations may then be performed on the computer that the application was executing upon. The runtime state might also be moved to another computer. In order to resume execution of the application, the runtime state of the application is restored. Once the runtime state of the application has been restored, execution of the application may be restarted from the point at which execution was suspended. A proxy layer might also be utilized to translate requests received from the application for resources that are modified after the runtime state of the application is persisted. | 06-28-2012 |
20120167121 | APPLICATION EXECUTION IN A RESTRICTED APPLICATION EXECUTION ENVIRONMENT - Application programming interface (API) calls made by an application are intercepted at runtime. A determination is made as to whether each intercepted API call is allowed or blocked by a restricted application execution environment. Each API call that is blocked by the restricted application execution environment is modified so that the API call is allowable such as, for instance, modifying the API call to execute against a shadow resource. Remediation code might also be executed at runtime to reformat the API call so that it is allowed to execute in the restricted application execution environment. | 06-28-2012 |
20120167159 | POLICY-BASED ACCESS TO VIRTUALIZED APPLICATIONS - When a request is received to execute a virtualized application, an application virtualization client component evaluates an execution policy to determine if the application may be executed.

20100003416 | Apparatus and Method for Making Preforms in Mold - Apparatus and a method of preparing fiber preforms disperses fibers and binder on a forming support surface such that the materials are conditioned and then applied to the surface where the composite material solidifies. Reinforcing material, such as fiber, is mixed with binder, such as thermoplastic or thermoset materials, so that the materials adhere. Then, the adhesive mixture is dispersed in a controlled predetermined weight ratio on the support surface where the mixture sticks to the support surface, cools and solidifies. The deposited mixture can be an open mat having interstices between fibers. The deposited mixture can also be shaped further into a final desired shape before complete solidification. This method eliminates the need for solvents and their associated problems. The process does not require a vacuum or plenum system to hold the reinforcing material in place. The preform can be made in any shape, including sections or asymmetric configurations and remain in mold while being processed to a composite molded article. | 01-07-2010 |

20120179272 | Braided Prosthetic Sockets with Attachment Plates and Methods of Manufacture - This invention provides new above knee (AK) and below the knee (BK) prosthetic sockets and implements specific manufacturing processes for the production of prosthetic sockets through the automated, computer controlled bi-axial and tri-axial braiding of sockets, over a mold or mandrel made of carved foam, plaster material or wax that is a replica of the patient's truncated limb, and is created by a Computer Aided Design (CAD) file controlling a Numerically Controlled (CNC) machine tool. This method of manufacture using aerospace fibers such as graphite or Kevlar, and high performance resins, is used to create a socket which is stronger and lighter weight than conventionally manufactured sockets. Braiding also allows incorporation of woven cloth, tapes and other reinforcements into the braiding process for added strength at selected areas. The method dramatically decreases the production time and cost of the prosthetic relative to conventional methods. | 07-12-2012 |

20110265448 | JET NOZZLE MIXER - An external jet nozzle mixer includes identically formed lobes. The external mixer works with the internal mixer further to mix the engine internal bypass flow with the internal jet engine core flow to level the disparate flow velocities, to reduce the peak velocities from the jet engine core and increase the lower bypass velocities of the engine internal bypass flow, and thereby reduce noise. The internal lobe contours act as lifting flutes, causing mixing of the primary hot and cold flows to mix before exiting the nozzle. The external lobe contours act as venturi chutes, accelerating the cooler ambient secondary air flow. The lobes thus act collectively as an injector to force the cooler ambient secondary flow into the previously mixed primary flow as it exits the nozzle. Also obtained is an increased thrust efficiency and, consequently, decreased fuel consumption and engine emissions. | 11-03-2011 |
