In accordance with teachings of the present disclosure, a system and method are described for configuring a storage area network. Said method comprises the following steps; at least one ultrasonic signal is emitted and captured by means of a group beam examination head on a flat region of the component which is to be examined. A request is then made to schedule the identified load instruction to have a predetermined latency. In the preferred embodiment, the biomaterials are used to reduce, inhibit, or contain loss of a biological fluid or gas in a patient. In alternative embodiments a plurality of such patch antennas may be connected together via a single transmission network to form an antenna array.
