To assess the response rate, duration of response, and overall survival after low-dose involved-field radiotherapy in patients with recurrent low-grade lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
Forty-three (24 women, 19 men) consecutive patients with indolent lymphoma or CLL were treated with a total dose of 4 Gy (2 × 2 Gy) using 6- 18-MV photons. The median age was 73 years (range, 39-88). Radiotherapy was given either after (n = 32; 75%) or before (n = 11; 25%) chemotherapy. The median time from diagnosis was 48 months (range, 1-249). The median follow-up period was 20 months (range, 1-56).
The overall response rate was 90%. Twelve patients (28%) had a complete response, 15 (35%) had a partial response, 11 (26%) had stable disease, and 5 (11%) had progressive disease. The median overall survival for patients with a positive response (complete response/partial response/stable disease) was 41 months; for patients with progressive disease it was 6 months (p = 0.001). The median time to in-field progression was 21 months (range, 0-24), and the median time to out-field progression was 8 months (range, 0-40). The 3-year in-field control was 92% in patients with complete response (median was not reached). The median time to in-field progression was 9 months (range, 0.5-24) in patients with partial response and 6 months (range, 0.6-6) in those with stable disease (p < 0.05). Younger age, positive response to radiotherapy, and no previous chemotherapy were the best factors influencing the outcome.
Low-dose involved-field radiotherapy is an effective treatment in the management of patients with recurrent low-grade lymphoma or CLL.

“Information Gathering Facility Employing Dictionary File Containing Inquiry Invoking An External Process,” by Douglas G. Murray, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,427,144 B1, issued July 30, 2002.
The present invention relates in general to information processing within a computer system, and more particularly, to an information gathering facility, for example, for a network of computer systems for use in ascertaining updated state information on one or more computer system within the network. Still more particularly, the invention relates to a configuration of a dictionary file data structure employed in ascertaining state information on one or more computer systems of a network and to a technique for gathering such information using the dictionary file.
Computer networks provide a number of advantages over standalone systems. In a network, each computer is a node which communicates with other nodes over one or more links. Nodes may be provided which store and manage databases or other data files on mass storage devices, or which manage printers or links to public telecommunication networks, etc.
As networks become larger, and more computers, input/output devices and other machines are connected together, management of the network becomes more and more difficult. To alleviate data transfer limitations when connecting many nodes to a single network, networks are often divided into a smaller number of nodes, essentially creating separate networks which are then interconnected by means of bridges or gateways to allow a node on one sub-network to communicate with a node on another sub-network. This alleviates the data transfer limitations of networks, but does not alleviate management problems.
One problem associated with management of a computer system is managing software on the different computing nodes. Software management can include a number of functions, such as verifying that a computing node has a particular type of file, a particular version of the file, and possibly, ascertaining contents of the file. Keeping track of software distribution and use can be important for licensing purposes, as well as for basic functioning of the network. In the past, when computer systems were a single large, multiuser system, a system manager performed these functions. With the advent of single user systems, such as personal computers and workstations, the users have essentially become the system manager, requiring them to perform these system management tasks individually.
A need thus exists in the art for an enhanced, automated information gathering facility which allows state data, such as file existence and file configuration information, for one or more nodes to be maintained up-to-date in a control information repository of the computer system network.
Briefly summarized, the invention comprises in one aspect a method for gathering information on a state of a computer system. The method includes: providing a dictionary file having a plurality of inquiries for ascertaining state information on the computer system, the plurality of inquiries being organized into at least one subject group, each subject group being directed to a different piece of the state information, at least one group of the at least one subject group having multiple records of inquiry; and processing at least one inquiry of the plurality of inquiries of the dictionary file to accumulate the state information, the processing including for each group of the at least one group having multiple records of inquiry, processing a record of the multiple records of inquiry, and if a condition of the record is satisfied then terminating processing of the group, otherwise processing a next record of the multiple records of inquiry and continuing until a condition of one record of the multiple records of inquiry is satisfied or until all records of the multiple records of inquiry of the group have been processed.
In another aspect, a method is provided for gathering information on a state of a computer system which includes: providing a dictionary file having a plurality of inquiries for ascertaining state information on the computer system, at least one inquiry of the plurality of inquiries includes an instruction having a result which is output when a condition of the instruction is satisfied; and processing the at least one inquiry of the plurality of inquiries of the dictionary file to accumulate the state information, the processing including for each instruction outputting the result of the instruction from the dictionary file when the condition of the instruction is satisfied, wherein the state information on the computer system includes outputted results from satisfaction of the at least one instruction.
Systems and program storage devices corresponding to the above-summarized methods, as well as data structures encompassing the dictionary files employed thereby, are also described and claimed herein.
To restate, presented herein is an information gathering facility which can reside at a central location within a network of computer systems and be read from the central location by the individual computer systems when state information is to be derived. Thus, there is the ability to change one or more inquiries at the central location without making changes at all computer systems of the network. In accordance with the principles of the present invention, there is also an ability to design and implement inquiries of complicated machine configurations without programming, i.e., creating an executable of the file. Further, the format of the inquiry results, that is the state information returned, can be defined in the dictionary file itself, i.e., each instruction or line of inquiry in the dictionary file can possess a condition which if satisfied outputs a result and the cumulative results comprise the state information. This feature can be employed by other processes to query a machine and have the response formatted in a way that the process needs.
By providing multiple inquiries within a group, searching is possible for one or more of several versions of an application installed on a workstation in the network. When an inquiry finds the desired version on a workstation, the remaining inquiries are omitted. As new versions of an application become available, a new inquiry is simply added to the group that is looking for that application. This leaves intact all the inquiries that looked for the ‘backlevel’ versions. Code reuse is thus encouraged since other applications can use this tool to gather workstation information instead of including separate logic to do their inquiry.

Generally stated, provided herein is an information gathering facility which employs a dictionary file having an unique data structure. Specifically, the dictionary file has a plurality of inquiries for ascertaining state information on a computer system within a network of computers. The plurality of inquiries are organized into one or more subject groups. One or more of the subject groups contain multiple records or lines of inquiry. The information gathering technique employs this dictionary file by processing the inquiries of the subject groups to derive information on the state of the computer system. When multiple records or lines of inquiry exist within a given group, processing terminates with a first record of inquiry which has a condition that is satisfied by the computer system. One or more of the plurality of inquiries within the dictionary file are referred to herein as “instructions” and comprise inquiries with conditions that if satisfied cause the outputting of a result which is to be added to a file being constructed with the state information on the computer system. This feature allows programming (from the dictionary file) of the result to be output upon satisfaction of an inquiry contained within the dictionary file. Thus, the form of the information returned as the state information is dictated from the dictionary file itself. In one embodiment, the dictionary file comprises an ASCII file which is maintained at a central location within a computing network, and which is called by an inquiry tool (i.e., routine) resident on the computer system to be examined.
FIG. 1 depicts one embodiment of a computer network, generally denoted 10, which includes multiple computing systems such as client workstations 12 a, 12 b, 12 c coupled to a server 14. As shown, server 14 functions as an information repository in accordance with the principles of the present invention. Each client workstation 12 a, 12 b, 12 c includes an inquiry tool 16 a, 16 b, 16 c and in this example a copy 18 a, 18 b, 18 c of the dictionary file 18 read from information repository 14. Inquiry tool 16 a, 16 b, 16 c includes the control file which tells, for example, the respective client 12 a, 12 b, 12 c when to update its corresponding state information, where to go to obtain the dictionary file and where to return the state information 20. The inquiry tool is an application that is installed on a workstation that is used to gather information from the workstation. Once operational, the tool will gather the information when executed by the end user optionally on a periodic schedule. Installation of this tool could be lone at any time, but is typically clone prior to a user receiving the workstation for use.
In this embodiment, the returned information 20 is stored at database 20 of information repository 14 of network 10. Preferably, the dictionary file copy at client 12 a, 12 b, 12 c is updated each time inquiry tool 16 a, 16 b, 16 c initiates processing to update the client state information. Note that as used herein the “state of the computer system” and “state information” refer to, for example, whether a program or file exists on the client, the version or level of the program or file, or to a variable or value from an application residing on the client or resulting from execution of an external process by the client as described in greater detail in the above-incorporated, co-filed application.
The information gathering facility of the present invention can be employed with many types of computer system environments and many types of computer systems. For instance, the computer environment might include an RS/6000 computer system running an AIX Operating System (RS/6000 and AIX are offered by International Business Machines Corporation). Alternatively, the computer environment could include a UNIX workstation running a UNIX-based operating system. Instead of a single system, the computing environment could comprise a network of computer systems such as depicted in FIG. 1 wherein each computer system could be a UNIX or AIX workstation and the units are coupled to one another via a TCP/IP connection. Each unit might include, for example, a central processing unit, memory and one or more input/output devices which are well-known in the art. Again, the information gathering facility of the present invention can be incorporated and used with any type of computing unit, computer, processor, node, system, workstation and/or environment without departing from the spirit of the present invention. As another example, each computer system might comprise a PS/2 computer offered by International Business Machines Corporation, or one or more of the units may be based upon the Enterprise Systems Architecture offered by International Business Machines Corporation. Additionally, connection between the computer systems need not be TCP/IP. It can be any type of wire connection, token ring or network connection, to name just a few examples.
FIG. 2 depicts one example of several possible inquiry types which can be employed by a dictionary file constructed in accordance with the principles of the present invention. These inquiry types include: a file inquiry with checks for existence of a file of a certain date, time and/or size, and which can return file information; an INI file inquiry which checks for a certain application, variable and/or value, and which can return a certain value or all variables and values; an ASCII file inquiry which checks for a certain character string in a file, and which can return information on a line within the character string; a registry inquiry which checks for a certain registry tree and value, and which can return a value or all values within a tree or sub-tree; an external process inquiry using an INI output which executes an external process and performs an INI file inquiry on the results; an external process inquiry using an ASCII output, which executes an external process and performs an ASCII file inquiry on the results; an external process inquiry using a registry which executes an external process and does a registry inquiry on the result; and a multiple inquiry which can comprise a combination of selected inquiry types wherein all inquiries must succeed.
By way of example, if application APP1 has an INI file entry of Version=1.0 for version 1.0 but for some reason the INI file is not used at all for version 2.0 but instead a new file APP1.DAT is used, the following would detect the installed version:
1. Check for APP1.DAT file on the system, if found version 2.0 is installed. 2. Check the INI file for Version=1.0 line, if found version 1.0 is installed. 3. Check for APP1.EXE to see if any version is installed. As noted, one feature of an information gathering facility or Client Information Gathering Facility (CIGF) in accordance with the principles of the present invention is the dictionary file. This file is used to determine what the state of the computer system is and what information is to be returned to the server to be placed into the data repository. Within the dictionary file there are sections or groups of inquiries. Each group has one or more lines or records of inquiries that instruct CIGF how to gather the desired state information for that particular subject group. This information can be, for example, a version or setting data as supported by the options described below. Within the subject groups, any or all lines of inquiry may be used to obtain a result. In one example, a “Notes” grouping may have two lines which when processed determine the output, if any.
[Notes] ;file;Notes:V4.5;notes.exe;3/11/1997;231936 ;file;Notes:Unknown fileid% %date% %time% %size%;notes.exe [next app] ;file;%appid%:V6;napp.exe;6/22/1996 First the file notes.exe is searched for in the file system. If it is found and is dated Mar. 11, 1997 and its size is 231936 then the string Notes:V4.5 is output. Otherwise, the process continues for each line under the group until one of the lines is successful or there are no more lines for the group. In this example, if the Notes.exe file could not be found according to the first line, then the second line is processed. Since there is no date, time or size specified for the second line then it will succeed if the Notes.exe file exists anywhere on the system. The output line will contain the full path where it was found and the date, time and size of the file.
There are several options that are available to be used on the lines for each group. The first character on the line can be used as the delimiter for each of the fields used when an option is used to return information.
The following is a description of certain possible options and the syntax of the lines that implement them. Each option below is available on various operating systems, such as the OS/2 Operating System offered by International Business Machines Corp.
Check for Existence of a File
This option can be used to check for the existence of a file to determine the version of software that is installed. The file option can be used to check for the existence of a set of files and return a version statement if the files are found.
Syntax: ;file;output;fileid1;date1;time1;size1; . . . ;fileidn;daten;timen;sizen
This is the output that will be placed in the output file if the files are found. There are several variables that will be substituted into this string before it is returned.
%appid%
The current group or application id.
%del%
The input field delimiter.
%fileid%
The full path of the last file being searched for.
The date of the last file being searched for.
The time of the last file being searched for.
%size%
The size of the last file being searched for.
fileid1
The name and ext of a file to search for. This file is one that if it exists, the application is installed.
The date that the file must have in order to be this version. * or no value means that the date of the file is not important.
The time that the file must have in order to be this version. * or no value means that the time is not important.
The size that the file must have in order to be this version. * or no value means that the size is not important.
fileidn
Used if more than one file is to be checked.
Obtain Data from Execution of External Application
IPConfig obtains TCP/IP information from the system by executing the WINIPCFG command WINDOWS 95 Operating System or the IPCONFIG command on WINDOWS NT Operating system. Use the IPConfig option to run these utilities and extract information from the result to be sent to the repository.
Syntax: ;IPConfig;output;key;value
This is the output that will be placed in the output file if the key is found. There are several variables that will be substituted into this string before it is returned.
The current application id.
The Key being searched for.
The values found for all occurrences of the key within the app. When there are more than one value the delimiter is used between them.
This is an ASCII string of characters that are searched for at the beginning of each line output by the WINIPCFG or IPCONFIG commands. If found then the remainder of the line, following the : delimiter is used as the value associated with the key being searched for.
If a value is given then the inquiry will succeed only if the value given matches that on the line of the WINIPCFG or IPCONFIG output. When * is the value given or no value is given then the inquiry succeeds if the key is found in the WINIPCFG or IPCONFIG output and the value in that output is returned.
Obtain Data from an ASCII INI File
Often application INI files contain information that is required to determine how that application is installed. Use the INI option to extract information from an application INI file. Those skilled in the art will note that an INI file is an initialization file in Windows which provides persistent storage of configuration data. Many applications employ INI files to store information that must persist. Those skilled in the art of WINDOWS Operating System programming understand the format and use of INI files.
Syntax: ;ini;output;fileid;app;key;value;reg_exe
The current application (i.e., group) id.
The full path of the INI file on the system.
%app%
The application from the INI file.
The key from the INI file.
The values found for all accuracies of the key within the application are placed here. When there are more than one value the delimiter is used between them.
The name and extension of the INI file. A path may also be included but a drive letter is not supported.
The application name within the INI file. This is required and is used to find the application in the file.
This is the key in the INI file. * or no value means that the “n” lines are to be read from the application and placed in the output as a delimited list.
If a value is given then the version is defined by this value assigned to the key. * or no value means that any value assigned to the key is all that is needed. When * is given as the key, then the number of lines to include in the output is given as the value. * or no value in this case means include all lines from the application.
reg_exe (WINDOWS NT/2000/98/95 Operating System Versions)
This is the name of the registered exe file that will use the INI file being searched. If reg_exe is given then the registered install directory for the executable is first searched for the INI file and then the PATH is searched. When a reg-exe is given the fileid cannot contain a path.
Output a Default String
Default simply outputs text to the output file if none of the previous options were successful.
Syntax: ;default;output
This is the output that will be placed in the output file. There are several variables that will be substituted into this string before it is returned.
To summarize, there are several search options which could be employed to determine a version or other state information for a computer system, including:
Searching for a file Searching for a certain INI file entry Using output of some other external application Checking for a default condition, or Looking for a registry key/value FIGS. 3A & 3B depict a flowchart of one embodiment for processing a dictionary file data structure in accordance with the principles of the present invention. The data structure in this example employs the first four options noted above. Other examples, however, will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
In the embodiment of FIGS. 3A & 3B, dictionary file processing 30 begins with setting of a “Looking For a New Group” flag 40. As noted above, the dictionary file can be organized into multiple subject groups and the new group flag is set to indicate that the processing is searching for a next group in the file. Next, processing inquiries whether there are any records or lines in the dictionary file left to be processed 50. If “no”, then the results obtained up to this point are output in a file to the information repository 60 and processing is terminated 70.
Again, as used herein, a “record” is a line of inquiry which may comprise an “instruction” within the dictionary file. An instruction is a line of inquiry which contains a condition that when satisfied causes a result to be output for inclusion as a line in the file comprising the state information of the computer system under examination. In one example, each record or line of inquiry also comprises an instruction. If records remain, then processing reads a next record from the file 80 and determines whether the “Looking For New Group” flag is set 90. If so, then the new record may comprise the first line of the new group and inquiry determines whether the new group is found 100. If “no”, then processing returns to determine whether any records remain in the dictionary file 50. If a new group has been found, then the group substitution variables for the new group are set 110. The group substitution variables could comprise values for the group which are to be inserted into the output with the state information. The “Looking For New Group” flag is then reset 120 and processing determines whether there are any records remaining 50. If so, then at the next pass through inquiry 90 the “Looking For New Group” flag will not be set and processing determines whether a new group is found 130. If a new group is found, this means that the previous group had no lines of inquiry and the group substitution variables are set for the new group 110.
Assuming that the record does not comprise a new group, then processing determines whether the record is a file check inquiry 140. If so, then a process file inquiry subroutine 150 is called. If the record is not a file check inquiry, processing determines whether the record is an INI file content check inquiry 160. If so, then a process INI inquiry subroutine 170 is called. If the answer to inquiry 160 is “no”, then processing determines whether the record is an external process check inquiry 180, and if so, a process external process inquiry subroutine 190 is called. Finally, in this example, processing determines whether the record is a default inquiry 200. If so, the process default inquiry subroutine 210 is called. Otherwise, no action is taken and processing determines whether there are any records remaining 50.
FIGS. 4, 5, 6 & 7 respectively depict one embodiment of a process file inquiry subroutine 150, a process INI inquiry subroutine 170, a process external process inquiry subroutine 190, and a process default inquiry subroutine 210. Continuing with FIGS. 3A & 3B, after processing the record through the appropriate subroutine, inquiry is made whether the condition within the record has been satisfied 220. If so, then the result associated with the record is added to a results file to be output upon completion of dictionary file processing 230. The “Look For New Group” flag is then set 240 and processing looks for a next record in the dictionary file 50. If the condition in the record is unsuccessful, then processing directly returns to inquiry 50.
FIG. 4 depicts one embodiment of a process file inquiry subroutine 400 which begins by checking whether there are more files in the inquiry to check 410. If “no”, then the result or variables from the inquiry line are substituted into the result line to be output as the state information (from the processing of FIGS. 3A & 3B). The result line would also include the group substitution variables set during the processing of FIGS. 3A & 3B. This successfully ends processing 425 of the process file inquiry 400. If there are more files to be checked in the inquiry, processing determines whether the desired file exists 430, whether the size of the file matches the anticipated size 440, whether the date of the file matches 450 and whether the time of the file matches 460. If “yes” to these inquiries, then the condition has been satisfied and processing determines whether there are any more files to check. If “no”, then the corresponding result of the inquiry is substituted into the result line to be output as the state information for the client and processing successfully terminates 425. If the answer to any of inquiry 430, 440, 450 or 460 is “no”, then processing is terminated for the line of inquiry since the condition does not exist on the client 475.
FIG. 5 depicts one embodiment of a process INI inquiry routine 500 which begins by opening the INI file 510. Processing determines whether there are more lines to check in the INI file 520. If “no”, then the process INI inquiry was not successful 525. Otherwise, the next line of the INI file is read 530 and processing determines whether the line is the start of a desired application or section in the INI file 540. If “no”, then a next line in the INI file is checked and the process is repeated until the start of the desired application in the INI file is found.
Once the start of the desired application is found, processing determines whether there are more lines in the INI file to check 550. If not, then the process INI inquiry has been unsuccessful 525. If so, the next line is read 560 and processing determines whether the variable matches 570. If “no”, then a next line is checked 550. Otherwise, processing inquires whether the value of the variable matches or is a don't care 580. If “no”, then a next line is checked. If the value matches or is a don't care, then the variables are substituted into the result line to be output as a portion of the state information 590 and the process INI inquiry is successfully ended 595.
FIG. 6 depicts one embodiment of a process external process inquiry 600 which calls the external process and places the result in a temporary file 610. As noted above, there are a number of options with respect to processing of an external application. The external application could output an INI file, an ASCII file, or registry changes. In this example, an INI file output is assumed. Thus, an INI inquiry is processed on the temporary file 620 to determine whether the condition has been successfully met. The temporary file is then deleted 630 and processing determines whether the INI inquiry was successful 640. If so, an end successful result 655 is obtained, otherwise an end not successful result is output 645.
FIG. 7 is a flowchart for processing a default inquiry 700. This processing simply comprises substituting variables into the result line 710 as defined by the default inquiry. Processing is always successful 715 with a default inquiry.
FIG. 8 depicts an example dictionary file wherein an external process IPCconfig is called and the results of that external process are compared with a predefined condition. This example dictionary file is described in greater detail in the above-incorporated, co-filed patent application.
Those skilled in the art will note from the above description that presented herein is an information gathering facility which employs a dictionary file data structure at a central location to derive state information on one or more computer systems in a network. Advantageously, the format of the state information returned can be defined by results contained within the dictionary file data structure itself. The data structure comprises a plurality of inquiries which are organized into subject groups and when a particular condition of an inquiry is satisfied, all other inquiries in the group are skipped. As new versions of an application on one or more computer systems in the network become available, a new inquiry is simply added to the respective group that is looking for that application.

Tom Ehrich Church Wellness: A Best Practices Guide to Nurturing Healthy Congregations
ISBN 13: 9780898695977
ISBN 10: 089869597X ISBN 13: 9780898695977
A nut and bolts guide to the "seven key factors" that determine a church's health.
All churches, no matter the denomination, are faced with similar challenges: membership development, leadership development, communications strategy, spiritual development, young adult ministry, listening to parishioner needs, and measuring progress. Here, author Tom Ehrich provides a guide for clergy and lay leaders in a way that's clear and useable. Readers are directed to the church wellness website for more in-depth guidance.
Tom's book reminds us that what we do as a church doesn't have to be that hard or complicated. Effective measuring of our programming and events is essential to doing things well and Tom deftly breaks down some very difficult issues into some very usable and practical pieces. Sometimes it's the simple things that work the best and Tom invites us to take a simple but profound look at how we do `church' and get back to the basics. -- Rev. Philip Lotspeich, Coordinator for Church Growth, General Assembly Council, Louisville, Kentucky
"It is a masterful work and should be required reading for all- in church and classroom." --John Squire, lay leader at St. Bartholomew's Church, New York, and a participant in St. Bart's Church Wellness Project

‘When I was depressed and hit my lowest point, my family leaped in, got me seeing a psychiatrist and did a host of other things for me that I didn’t even recognise at the time’ Photograph: shironosov/Getty Images/iStockphoto
Last week was RUOK? Day, a day dedicated to reducing the impact of suicide on our lives. The aims of awareness campaigns such as this are, of course, noble: suicide is a terrible problem that affects far too many of our lives, and preventing even a single suicide is something that we can all aspire to do.
There’s nothing worse than feeling guilty with a smile pasted on your face, telling people that you’re 'just tired'

Patina can also help, but you won't have a patina on the very edge: it needs to be sharp.
Worst case scenario it leaves a lot of taste on acidic things, and you can still just use it on non-acidic foods. Japanese Sushi and vegetable knives are often carbon steel and are ok for those uses.
