Abstract: A system and method is provided which allows for the dynamic interpretation of a transport block size field in a Layer I/Layer 2 (L1/L2) control channel, such that for any first H-ARQ transmission, the transport block size indication field will indicate the size of the transport block. For any retransmission, the transport block size indication bits can be transformed into dedicated bits for indicating the RV used as it relates to circular buffering. A robust bit field for indicating new data transmission (e,g, new data indication (NDI)) is therefore introduced, and from a UE perspective it is possible to determine how to interpret the transport block size field.

Abstract: The invention relates to functionalized, telechelic polymers synthesized by enzymatic catalysis and methods, and the functionalization of polymers via Michael addition with a lipase catalyst, and the crosslinking of mono- or difunctional (telechelic) polymers made by enzymatic catalysis, such as by using multifunctional coupling agents and enzyme catalysts. Quantitative transesterification of vinyl methacrylate with poly(ethylene glycol), poly(isobutylene) and poly(dimethylsiloxane) was achieved using Catadida matarctica lipase B. In addition, methacrylate-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether has been successfully coupled to aminoethoxy poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether via Michael addition using Candida antarctica lipase B. Amine-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol)s have also been used for the preparation of poly(ethylene glycol)-based dendrimers and gels through Michael addition of the polymer onto triacryloyl hexahydro-triazine using the same enzyme. 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy verified the structure of the functionalized polymers.

Abstract: Implementations of the present invention relate generally to methods, systems, and apparatus for absorbing vibration and shock impulses created during drilling operations.  In particular, implementations of the present invention include drill-string shock absorbers adapted to absorb longitudinal forces produced during a drilling operation. For example, drill-string shock absorbers in accordance with at least one implementation of the present invention include a generally cylindrical housing having a first end and a second end coupled together by a radially interlocking joint. Such a configuration can reduce mechanical failure and increase the operating life of the shock absorber by transmitting torsional forces directly between the ends of the housing and reducing stresses from being transferred to fastening means securing the first and second ends of the cylindrical housing together.

Abstract: A progressing cavity pump assembly utilizes a reinforced upper section of the stator rubber helix. The pump stator is located at the end of a string of tubing. The reinforced upper section of the stator rubber helix is strong enough, whether reinforced by mechanical means or by strengthening the rubber matrix chemically, so as not to allow the passage of a stop located above or on the top of the pump rotor. The rotor is lowered on a string of rods until the stop above or on top of the rotor lands onto the reinforced upper section of the stator rubber helix. The rotor is then repositioned away from the stator helix a predetermined distance before pump operation begins with rod string rotation.

Abstract: A router module receives a client request. In response to receiving the request, the router module obtains the network address of a server module to fulfill the request. The router module then determines whether it is executing on the same physical computer as the server module. If the router module determines that the server module is not executing on the same phys-ical computer, the router module forwards the client request to the server module utilizing a standard network transport. If the router module determines that the server module is executing on the same computer, the router module forwards the client request to the server module using an optimized transport, such as an optimized local-machine-only transport.
