Title: Programming framework for closed systems
Inventor: PICIOCCIO MATTHEW
IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 2008-05-23
Abstract: Mechanisms are disclosed that allow for execution of unsigned content and the securing of resources in a closed system when such unsigned content is executing on the system. For example, an application programming interface is used between an access layer implementing unsigned content and an operating system of the closed system. The application programming interface may have sub-interfaces that correspond to sub-layers of the access layer, including a graphics sub-interface, an audio sub-interface, an input sub-interface, and a storage sub-interface. These sub-interfaces present access calls made by the sub-layers to the protected resources of the closed system. By providing the application programming interface, unsigned content, e.g., video games can run on a closed system that is typically designed to run only signed content.

Title: Method for the removal of inorganic components of biomass from agricultural, forest and urban sources
Inventor: KOUKIOS EMMANOUIL
IPC: C10B57/00
Filed: 2008-06-27
Abstract: The present application describes a methodology aiming at the removal of the harmful ash constituents from the ash of biomass, such as alkali metals, chlorine and sulfur, prior to its thermochemical conversion, in order to minimize/eliminate the ash-related corrosion, deposition and agglomeration problems, as well as the emissions of alkali metals, chlorine and sulfur. This removal is achieved by a combined pre-treatment method which includes the prepyrolysis of biomass at temperatures varying in the range of 200-300°C and for a period of 5min up to 2h, followed by the leaching of the biomass materials using water with a solid/water mass ratio varying from 33g/L up to 300g/L with the water temperature varying from 13°C up to 55°C and the residence time varying from 5 min up to 24 h.
Patent CA-2693875-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VARKEY JOSEPH
IPC: E21B19/22
Filed: 2008-07-15
Abstract: An assembly for positioning a well access line in a well. The assembly is located between a supply of well access line and a well, with the line running through the assembly and to the well.  Multiple pulleys (101) are incorporated into the assembly about which a well access line such as a conventional wireline may be wrapped.  The pulleys are biased to one another such that slack in the line may be stored at the assembly and drawn on in the event of line tension spiking up to a predetermined amount. As such, tension in the line may be kept to a minimum so as to avoid damage to the line during a well access operation. Furthermore, should the tension in the line fail to come back down to below the predetermined amount, the well access operation may be halted in an automated manner. Halting may proceed while continuing to allow take-up of the slack in the line until completed halting of the operation is achieved.

Title: Enhanced uplink for inactive state in a wireless communication system
Inventor: SAMBHWANI SHARAD DEEPAK
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2008-10-01
Abstract: Techniques for supporting operation with enhanced uplink in inactive state are described. A user equipment (UE) may send an access preamble for random access while in an inactive state and may receive a message containing resources allocated to the UE. The allocated resources may be selected by a Node B from a pool of resources pre-allocated to the Node B for the enhanced uplink. The UE may send information (e.g., scheduling information and/or its UE identity) to the Node B using the allocated resources. The UE may receive an acknowledgement addressed to the UE  based on the UE identity. The UE may remain in the inactive state and continue to use the allocated resources until they are de-allocated. Alternatively, the UE may transition to an active state and either continue to use the allocated resources or receive an allocation of new resources for the active state.

Title: Method and device for transporting items by means of identified containers
Inventor: BERGER GISBERT
IPC: B07C3/18
Filed: 2008-09-17
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for transporting multiple items (P-1,..., P-z), in particular postal consignments, to predefined destination points. The respective destination point and a value of a predefined feature of each item are measured and stored. The item is transported together with other items in a transport means (Beh-1) to an intermediate point (ZE-2). The transport means (Beh-1) is furnished with a label (E-1) which has a machine-readable identification (Ke-1). This identification (Ke-1) is read. The transport means (Beh-1) in which an item was transported is determined by this means. After transportation to the intermediate point (ZE-2) a value of the feature is measured afresh. In order to find the stored data record, a restriction is implemented on the search space to the data records of those items (P-1,...P-x) which were transported in the same transport means (Beh-1).
