Appl. No.:

09/224808

Inventors:

William N. Pohlmann - Newton Square PA
Kenneth D. Matson - Bellevue WA
David Asbell - Blue Bell PA

Assignee:

Computer Associates Think, Inc. - Islandia NY

International Classification:

G06F 954

US Classification:

709318

Abstract:

A method for extending an event structure including submitting a keyname and a corresponding value for the event structure and determining whether the keyname exists in a keys field array of the event structure. If the keyname does not exist in the keys field array, the method includes incrementing an index of the event structure, adding the keyname to a position in the keys field array based on the index and adding the corresponding value to a position in the values field array based on the index. If the keyname does exist in the keys field array, the method includes determining the position of a previously stored value in the values field array associated with the keyname and replacing the previously stored value in the values field array with the corresponding value.

International Classification:

A23P 112

US Classification:

426249, 426 89, 426274, 426275, 426516

Abstract:

A system produces a multi-layer product by forming as many different ingredients as is required for the final product in steps that can be separate from each other and then combining these ingredients in an extrusion die that is formed to flow the separate ingredients in side-by-side flow paths and then combine them where necessary for the final product to be formed. Specifically, two of the flow paths are sandwiched by a third flow path whereby the final product is in the form of a sandwich with two ingredients in layers between two separate layers of a third ingredient. A specific example of the food product is an animal food treat in the form of a cheeseburger.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707102, 7071041

Abstract:

A method and system for importing data comprising the downloading of product data from different sources and in different formats; processing the downloaded data by at least comparing it with data downloaded and stored in a product database; and reviewing the results of the comparison to detect differences in the data, the differences potentially being errors. The system and methods further comprise connecting the downloaded data from its supplier specific format into a standard format; comparing the downloaded data in the standard format with a previously downloaded data set saved in the standard format; categorizing the product data based on the results of the second comparison; and processing each category of data independently to automatically update the product database.
