Filed:

Sep 30, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/529853

Inventors:

Paul Weiss - Rockport MA, US

International Classification:

G06F 9/46

US Classification:

705009000

Abstract:

This invention relates to a method of portraying project schedule history in graphical form which facilitates a rapid assessment of the success of a project and its leaders from the standpoint of performance against schedule. More specifically, this invention relates to an “Estimated Time to Completion” chart that is plotted against “Date” in a two dimensional chart, and points on the chart are created at periodic checkpoints for the duration of the project. When the points are connected, a line is created which slants toward the “Date” axis and intersects that axis at the actual completion date. Partially-completed charts are useful at the periodic checkpoints for graphically illustrating how well the project team is holding to the schedule. Completed charts are useful in evaluating performance of team leaders and for creating incentives for timely performance of projects. Methods of adapting the charts to changes in project scope are included in this invention. The invention also relates to a method having steps for making the chart, both manually and by computer.

Abstract:

Devices for detecting at least one target molecule in a sample are provided. The devices comprise a field-effect transistor and an aptamer attached to the field-effect transistor. The aptamer comprises a capture region and a stem region, wherein the target molecule can selectively bind to the capture region of the aptamer. The stem region can change a conformation of the aptamer when the capture region binds to the target molecule. Techniques for detecting a target molecule using such devices are also provided.

Appl. No.:

15/887055

Inventors:

- Armonk NY, US
David J. Schlegel - Needham MA, US
Paul W. Weiss - Boylston MA, US

International Classification:

G06F 11/34

Abstract:

A method of measuring performance of a computerized system is provided. A test component integrated in a client application module is configured to generate an application specific workflow to be delivered to a computing environment of one or more computing devices for measuring the performance of the computerized system. The integrated test component of the client application module is executed to deliver the application specific workflow to a server system in the computing environment. Performance data is collected based on at least one response received from the computing environment to measure the performance of the computerized system.
