The CLAIMS Direct Web Services (CDWS) offer a variety of entry points into both the data warehouse and SOLR Solr index. These are mid-to-high-level entry points and can satisfy most requirements pertaining to searching and extracting data for a typical search/view application. There are, however, corner cases which may require more intricate extraction of particular information. On the other hand, there may also be situations where massive amounts of data need to be extracted for further, down-stream processing. The following discussion will touch on solutions for both of these cases.

A package is formed by holding a nonextensible strip taut and wrapping it around the upper and/or lower periphery of the bundle and joining the ends of the strip segments e.g. by adhesive bonding. A projecting margin of the strip is folded to overlie the bundle or underlie the bundle so that an L-configuration is imparted to the frame formed around the bundle after the strip is applied thereto. |
