Patent CA-2476085-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DEAN ALAN P
IPC: G01S19/51
Filed: 2004-07-29
Abstract: A precision positioning AGM system is provided for detecting the location of an AGM device, as well as the time of a smart pig passing the location. The practice combines two processes into one by using a GPS receiver at the AGM location to record raw GPS measurements at each AGM location. A second GPS receiver is provided at a remote known base location. These position signals and a pig-passage time signal from the AGM provide high accuracy positioning and pig passage time, with only one crew being required. These signals are broadcast to a remote monitoring site. This makes real-time pig tracking unnecessary and eliminates the need for more than one crew visiting the same site.

Title: Internal bgp downloader
Inventor: KOUVELAS ISIDOR
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2003-09-24
Abstract: Improved systems and methods for distributing interdomain routing information within an Autonomous System (AS). A protocol extension to BGP, iBGPd (internal Border Gateway Protocol downloader), has been developed to replace IBGP in distributing BGP interdomain routing information within an AS. The iBGPd technique distributes routing information hop-by-hop using a reliable multi-party transport protocol. Scalability is greatly improved since the use of a full mesh of TCP connections is avoided. Also, there are improvements in routing information propagation delay and routing stability. Drawbacks related to the use of route reflectors and confederations are avoided.

Title: Synthetic muscle promoters with activities exceeding naturally occurring regulatory sequences in cardiac cells
Inventor: SCHWARTZ ROBERT J
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2003-10-30
Abstract: Transgenes driven by naturally occurring cardiac promoters have relatively l ow levels of cardiac transgenic gene expression, and have consequently limited the use of cardiac muscle as a target for plasmid mediated gene supplementation. However, by randomly assembling motifs of E-box, MEF-2, TEF -1 and SRE elements, cardiac-specific synthetic promoter recombinant libraries have been produced. By screening hundreds of resultant clones for transcriptional activity both in vitro and in vivo, a few cardiac-specific synthetic promoters were discovered comprising a transcriptional potency tha t greatly exceeds the transcriptional levels obtained from natural myogenic an d viral gene promoters. These promoters are used to direct the expression of desirable genes in nucleic acid expression constructs specifically to cardia c cells. Thus, these cardiac specific-synthetic promoters can be utilized for plasmid mediated gene supplementation for serious health conditions, such as ischemic disease, myocardial infarction or heart failure. Thus, one aspect o f the current invention is a cardiac specific-synthetic promoter produced by a method that generates a library of randomized synthetic-promoter-recombinant expression constructs. Another aspect of the present invention is directed t o a method using the cardiac specific-synthetic expression construct for expression a gene of interest in a cardiac cell.

Title: Cell based wrapped wave front arbiter (wwfa) with bandwidth reservation
Inventor: RANCICH DAVID
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2003-10-31
Abstract: Systems and methods for cell-based wrapped wave front arbiter (WFFA) with bandwidth reservation are disclosed. The method for reserving bandwidth of a given priority using the WWFA for arbitrating bandwidth among virtual links between input and output ports, each link supporting priorities and corresponding to an arbitration unit (AU) of the WWFA generally includes performing at least one arbitration pass of a wave front of the WWFA where AUs having a reserved bandwidth request of a given priority and reserved bandwidth credit of the given priority compete for the bandwidth associated with the wave front, and where AUs not having a reserved bandwidth request of the given priority and reserved bandwidth credit of the given priority do not compete for the bandwidth, and performing at least one subsequent arbitration pass where AUs having a reserved bandwidth request of the given priority compete for the bandwidth. Each virtual link perferably supports a high priority and a low priority such that the WWFA performs four passes. Each priority of each virtual link may be associated with a bandwidth credit accumulator register indicating the level of remaining reserved bandwidth credit, a reserved bandwidth weight register for programming a predetermined level of reserved bandwidth, a request counter register for tracking the number of bandwidth requests, a rate counter register that is periodically incremented to generate reserved bandwidth credits for the bandwidth credit accumulator register, and an optional burst register having a predetermined value for limiting the maximum value of the bandwidth credit accumulator register.

Filed: 2004-02-06
Abstract: A process for liquefying natural gas in conjunction with processing natural gas to recover natural gas liquids (NGL) is disclosed. In the process, the natural gas stream to be liquefied is taken from one of the streams in the NGL  recovery plant and cooled under pressure to condense it. A distillation stream is withdrawn from the NGL recovery plant to provide some of the cooling required to condense the natural gas stream. A portion of the condensed stream is expanded to an intermediate pressure and then used to provide some of the cooling required to condense the natural gas stream, and thereafter routed to the NGL recovery plant so that any heavier hydrocarbons it contains can be recovered in the NGL product. The remaining portion of the condensed stream is expanded to low pressure to form the liquefied natural gas stream.

Abstract: A device and method for uniformly providing lubricant to rotating machine parts is provided. The device comprises an axially mounted rotating circumferential lubricant reservoir with a weir comprising one side of the lubricant reservoir. The reservoir and weir are disposed at uniform radius and circumferentially about an axis of rotation causing lubricant added to the reservoir to flow uniformly over the weir about the circumference of the weir when the device is in high speed rotational motion.   Because of the uniform flow of lubricant over the top of the weir around the circumference of the weir, lubricant can be directed to machine parts requiring lubrication in a uniform manner around the circumference of the moving device.
