A system and method of the disclosure relates to structuring at least one resource of an application programming interface (API) for a server. In the method, a plurality of field-level elements may be defined. Each of the plurality of field-level elements may be associated with a respective property. Also, first and second message-level elements may be defined. The first message-level element may be based on a first field-level element of the plurality of field-level elements, and the second message-level element may be based on the first field-level element. The API may be associated with a first resource having properties resolved based on at least the first and second message-level elements.

Metadata includes runtime dependencies for services that form an application. Each runtime dependency includes one or more of the one or more services, unless it has no runtime dependencies. A first of the services is selected, based on the metadata, that does not have runtime dependencies or those runtime dependencies are operational. The selected service is started. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Disclosed are systems and methods for providing a hybrid mobile application. The method may include: receiving specification of at least one feature of a mobile application. The mobile application may be specific to a first programming platform. The method may further include generating the at least one feature based on the specification. The at least one feature may be written in a programming language specific to a second programming platform, and the second programming platform may be different from the first programming platform. The method may also include compiling a programming wrapper based on the at least one feature of the mobile application, combining the at least one feature and the programming wrapper into a programming component, packaging the programming component into the mobile application, and distributing the mobile application in a repository of the first programming platform.

A printing system including a printer that sends a printed print medium to a post-processing machine is provided with: a job sorting unit that sorts a plurality of jobs into a plurality of groups; a required printing time calculation unit that calculates a required printing time per set required for printing for each job; a short job determination unit that determines, as a short job, a job for which the required printing time is shorter than a minimum processing time that is a minimum time required for processing for one set in the post-processing machine; and a job group generation unit that generates, on the basis of a plurality of jobs sorted into the same group, a job group obtained by grouping standard jobs (jobs not determined as short jobs) and a job group obtained by grouping short jobs.

A system and method for determining the immune status or immune cycle in a subject is provided. A sampling component for obtaining physiological data from the subject is provided together with a data storage component for storing the physiological data obtained from the subject. A processing component is provided to analyse the physiological data and thereby determine the immune status or periodicity of the immune cycle and the immune cycle of the subject. An output component for outputting the immune status or periodicity of the immune cycle, and the immune cycle of the subject and/or the future status or immune cycle of the subject is provided.

An automated method and system for a conveyor holding system for holding vials of a multi-vial order in a holding pattern until all vials of the order have been filled by an automatic pill counter. The system uses RFID information to divert vials off the conveyor into the conveyor holding loop if all vials of the multi-vial order have not been filled. The system is adapted to divert the vials of the multi-vial order out of the holding loop when all vials of the multi-vial order have been filled.

A method and corresponding apparatus for processing a shuffle instruction are provided. Shuffle units are configured in a hierarchical structure, and each of the shuffle units generates a shuffled data element array by performing shuffling on an input data element array. In the hierarchical structure, which includes an upper shuffle unit and a lower shuffle unit, the shuffled data element array output from the lower shuffle unit is input to the upper shuffle unit as a portion of the input data element array for the upper shuffle unit.
