A system and a method are provided for an online address directory that may be updated by the address owner in real time, via the Internet, the telephone, wireless web, or otherwise. The address entry may contain an address for the address owner, together with beginning and ending effective dates for the address to ensure that the address information is current for any given date. The address owner may select a level of security for the address entry, to permit open or restricted access to the address entry, and may specify those persons who may view the entry. A person seeking address information for the address owner may obtain that information by entering an identifier correlating to the address owner, the dates of interest, and if required, a key, into a query in the directory, thereby obtaining accurate address information for the date of interest.

Systems and methods are provided for managing an application configuration using messaging over a communications network. A configuration message including configuration changes to the application and a corresponding effective date when the configuration changes are to be applied to the application is received. Following the receipt of the configuration message, the message is stored. When the effective date occurs, the configuration changes from the received configuration message are applied to the current configuration of the application.

The rate and distribution system of the present invention enables an user to more accurately and quickly generate specific rental rates employing a browser-based system. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the rate and distribution system includes an interactive graphical mapping interface depicting the geographic location of the entities of an equipment rental business. The mapping interface preferably comprises a touchscreen and is configured to allow an user to define a region by selecting it on the map. Upon defining a region, the system enables the user to set a rental rate for the defined region. In a more preferred embodiment of the invention, the system enables the user to identify the equipment category to which the rate applies and select a future effective date for the rate.

A client server system and devices thereof, which perform a distributed processing while performing access control. when a client device demands a job of the server device, the server device outputs an authentication demand message to an authentication server via a network. The authentication device performs authentication of a user taking account of an effective range of authentication information and effective dates and returns results of authentication to the server device via the network. The server device implements the demanded job in accordance with the results of authentication.

A method for the exclusive and singular treatment of all pharmaceuticals and drugs in any form that have passed their effective date, or are no longer of use to the individual, by mixing the pharmaceuticals and drugs with a granular solidification agent and water to form a non hazardous slurry which will solidify the liquefied pharmaceuticals and drugs into a non hazardous, environmentally friendly mixture safe for disposal into normal solid trash receptacles and landfills, and no longer a potential legal risk from ingestion after depositing into trash system. In this treatment the additional potential health risk and legal liability is eliminated from drugs and pharmaceuticals going into toilets and drains to sanitary sewers or septic tanks, and becoming liquid and untreatable at municipal wastewater treatment plants or septic fields, thereby returning to fresh water resources causing a risk to the general public health.

A patient monitor pressure pad having a time sensor and alarm circuit that produces an audible or visible alarm output to alert facility care staff that the effective life of the pressure pad is nearing its end.

Information collections defining a common subject such as a codified or uncodified body of law are stored on a computer readable medium in association with temporal information indicating the state or status with respect to time of parts of the information collection, including different versions of the same part. Parts that are different versions of each other have different temporal information associated therewith and can be accessed based on the temporal information. Thus, the temporal information may be used to control access to and display of parts of the subject in a computer system based on time as a search or request parameter. Parts of the common subject may be organized and stored according to various schemes, including hierarchical schemes such as topic trees, a relational database, a file system or a structured document system (e.g., using XML). Parts of the common subject and temporal and other information may be associated in various ways, including linking (e.g., hyperlinking), with pointers, or by including them in the same file, record or document. A hierarchical arrangement of hyperlinked, structured documents collectively provide a table of contents (TOC) to the subject. In the preferred embodiment, the subject is a statutory body of law such as the United States Code. Sections of the Code are stored in associated with temporal information such as date of enactment, effective date and termination date. A researcher can then access the version of the code in effect at any particular time. For example, historical and current versions of a section of the United States Code can be viewed, as accessed hierarchically or directly by identification of the section and a date. Other information, stored in association with a part of a body of law may include historical information, commentary, annotations, descriptive information, legislative history, references, and / or links to laws, judicial decisions and other information.

The invention relates to pharmacology field, which in detail provides a frozen died emulsion that contains docetaxel and findings, with the weight proportion being 1-50 and 3-1000, respectively. The invention also relates to the preparation method. Said method comprises following steps: (1)mixing docetaxel, emulsifier and solvent top prepare dispersed docetaxel emulsion; (2)adding frozen dried protecting agent into dispersed emulsion; (3)removing water through freeze drying and preparing dried docetaxel emulsion. The invention is characterized by low-toxic frozen dried emulsion, increased medicine safety and body durability, improved medicine treatment index and stability for storage and transportation, prolonged medicine effective date and increased medicine quality.

Method for merging data entries from a plurality of effective-dated tables. A preferred embodiment comprises converting the data entries from an effective-dated table into a continuous duration data table (for example, algorithm block 405) and then merging continuous neighbors that contain repetitive data (for example, algorithm block 415). Finally, data from other effective-dated tables are used to split the continuous duration data into parts (for example, algorithm block 425) so that associations between the continuous duration data and the data from the other effective-dated tables are made clear.

Disclosed are systems and methods of making assignments, particularly of sales leads. The assignments are considered either committed or uncommitted responsive to an effective date associated with one or more assignment rule used to make the assignments. Uncommitted assignments may be used to review the effects of changes in assignment rules. Examples are provided including the use of uncommitted assignments to review the effects of changes in a hierarchical territory structure.
