In a first embodiment for the present invention, tissue material on selected planes within the vitreous body is photoaltered to sever the fibers. Sequentially, or alternatively, to the first embodiment, in another embodiment, fibers at or near the vitreoretinal interface of the eye are photoaltered for this same purpose. | 01-28-2016 |

In the post-op procedure, vitreoretinal interface tissue is imaged to determine the extent of PVD that was established by the VRS treatment and Residual Areas of Adhesion (RAA) are identified on the vitreoretinal interface. Once the RAAs are identified, the next step is to allow gas micro-bubbles on the vitreoretinal interface which were generated during the VRS treatment to move, coalesce, and/or loosen tissue at the vitreoretinal interface, and thereby facilitate completion of a PVD. During the bubble coalescing period, ultrasound energy can be applied to bubble/tissue boundaries to accelerate bubble coalescence and/or increase the rate that RAA tissue is loosened at the vitreoretinal interface. After bubble coalescence, tissue at the RAA can be photoaltered using a focused femtosecond laser beam to induce a suitable PVD. | 01-28-2016 |

20150212070 | Low-Cost Portable Microfluidic System for Cell Migration - Low-cost and portable microfluidic systems are needed for cell migration research and Point of Care (POC) testing. This study introduces a low-cost and portable USB Microscope Microfluidic Chemotaxis Analysis System (UMCAS) for rapid analysis of cell chemotaxis studies. A standalone microfluidic gradient generator is also developed for rapid generation of chemical gradient in microfluidic device without need of any peripheral perfusion apparatus. A smart phone based application program was developed for the real-time remote monitoring of the migration data. This system is validated by observing the neutrophil migration in three different conditions: 1) medium control, 2) uniform IL-8 control, and 3) IL-8 gradient. The results show that neutrophils exhibit random migration in both medium and uniform IL-8 control experiments, while they show strong directional migration to the IL-8 gradient. These results successfully validated the developed UMCAS system. | 07-30-2015 |

20120141849 | Drop and Vibration Resistant Lithium-Ion Battery - The present invention relates generally to a metal canned battery that does not suffer reduced effectiveness in mechanical reliability upon dropping or vibration. More particularly, the invention pertains to a metal canned battery that has a substance therein that causes the electrode assembly to adhere to the exterior can. In one aspect, the battery is of a winding type wherein a cathode and an anode sheet are wound along with a polymer separator between them to form a jelly roll that is inserted into a cylindrical or prismatic metal can. The jelly roll is wrapped with an adhesive polymer layer or the inner wall of the metal can is coated with an adhesive polymer layer. The polymer layer is capable of swelling in a non-aqueous liquid electrolyte to provide a good adhesive between the metal can and the jelly roll and thereby improve the mechanical reliability and safety of the battery during drop or vibration. | 06-07-2012 |

20150143381 | COMPUTING SESSION WORKLOAD SCHEDULING AND MANAGEMENT OF PARENT-CHILD TASKS - A single workload scheduler schedules sessions and tasks having a tree structure to resources, wherein the single workload scheduler has scheduling control of the resources and the tasks of the parent-child workload sessions and tasks. The single workload scheduler receives a request to schedule a child session created by a scheduled parent task that when executed results in a child task; the scheduled parent task is dependent on a result of the child task. The single workload scheduler receives a message from the scheduled parent task yielding a resource based on the resource not being used by the scheduled parent task, schedules tasks to backfill the resource, and returns the resource yielded by the scheduled parent task to the scheduled parent task based on receiving a resume request from the scheduled parent task or determining dependencies of the scheduled parent task have been met. | 05-21-2015 |
20150149632 | MINIMIZING SERVICE RESTART BY OPTIMALLY RESIZING SERVICE POOLS - A method, computer program product, and system for optimizing service pools supporting resource sharing and enforcing SLAs, to minimize service restart. A computer processor determines a first resource to be idle, wherein a service instance continues to occupy the first resource that is idle. The processor adds the first resource to a resource pool, wherein the service instance continues to occupy the first resource as a global standby service instance on the first resource. The processor receives a request for a resource, wherein the request for the resource includes a global name associated with a service that corresponds to the global standby service instance, and the processor allocates, from the resource pool, the first resource having the global standby service instance, based on the request for the resource that includes the global name associated with the service corresponding to the global standby service instance. | 05-28-2015 |
