Title: An oxygen scavenging container and closure
Inventor: RULE MARK
IPC: A23L3/3427
Filed: 2008-01-24
Abstract: A container (22) includes a shell (24) made from a polymer, for example PET, and incorporating a catalyst, for example a palladium catalyst. A closure (40) incorporates a plug which includes a source of hydrogen, for example a hydride. In use, with container (22) including a beverage and closure (40) in position, the headspace in the container will be saturated with water vapor. This vapor contacts the hydride associated with plug (42) and as a result the hydride produces molecular hydrogen which migrates into the polymer matrix of shell (24) and combines with oxygen which may have entered the container through its permeable walls. A reaction between the hydrogen and oxygen takes place, catalysed by the catalyst, and water is produced. Thus, oxygen which may ingress the container is scavenged and the contents of the container are protected from oxidation.

Abstract: A SAW-based micro-sensor apparatus for simultaneously monitoring acceleration/vibration and temperature utilizing a sensing element configured as a SAW  device (e.g., SAW resonator or SAW delay line). The SAW device can be located in different locations on a substrate with respect to a thin piezoelectric diaphragm comprising an inertial mass. The temperature-compensated acceleration/vibration can be measured utilizing a frequency difference between an acceleration sensitive SAW  resonator (e.g., SAW-g) and a temperature sensitive SAW resonator (e.g., SAW-T). The temperature can be measured utilizing a frequency shift provided by the SAW-T and a temperature reference SAW resonator (e.g., SAW-R). Similarly, the phase response of different reflectors of the SAW delay line can be utilized to differentially measure the acceleration/vibration and temperature.

Patent CA-2701621-A1 (CA)
Title: Modular storage server architecture with dynamic data management
Inventor: TAYLOR CLEMENT G
IPC: H04N5/00
Filed: 2002-05-09
Abstract: The architecture of the present invention employs dynamic data management methods, which determine whether data should reside on disk or secondary storage (130), on which disk drives data should be stored, and how data should be replicated and/or migrated to new disk drives based on observed user (120) access patterns. These methods also migrate popular data to faster disk tracks to reduce average access time and thus improve performance. User access requests are assigned to modules based on the data stored at each module, and each module's current load (the number of request: waiting to be serviced). If the requested data is not on a disk drived, the data is retrieved from secondary storage (130), and may be stored on the disk drives for rapid subsequent access. When a requested data item on the disk drive is replicated, load balancing is performed by assigning the request to the module holding the data with the lowest load. In addition, user access requests waiting to retrieve replicated data may be dynamically and seamlessly migrated to another module based on changes in module loads.
