Title: A method of determining the true resistivity of a formation
Inventor: SAMWORTH ROGER JAMES
IPC: G01V3/20
Filed: 2011-07-19
Abstract: A method of processing resistivity log data comprises generating two or more resistivity log measurements of differing depths of penetration of an invaded formation. The deepest and shallowest log measurements are combined in accordance with a non-linear combination algorithm that is modulated by a parameter (k), the value of which varies in dependence on a comparison between deep and shallow log measurements. The results of the comparison are forward modelled from sample data and a modified log output â   preferably an indication of the true resistivity Rt â   is generated from the combinations of the log measurements. Rt may be calculated using: Rt = 10^(k*log(Deep) + (1 â   k)*log(Shallow)) wherein â  Deepâ   is the output of the deepest of an array of at least two current receiver electrodes in a resistivity tool and â  Shallowâ   is an output of the shallowest of the array. â  kâ   may represent a function of the modelled ratio of the shallow to deep measurement.

Title: Hardware synthesis using thermally aware scheduling and binding
Inventor: POTKONJAK MIODRAG
IPC: G06F9/48
Filed: 2010-11-12
Abstract: Technologies are generally described for hardware synthesis using thermally aware scheduling and binding. Multiple versions of a hardware design may be generated, each having variations of schedule and binding results. The scheduling and binding may be performed such that thermal profiles of the multiple versions have thermal peaks that are distant between the versions. The increased physical distance between the thermal peaks of the versions can give the versions unique thermal characteristics. A schedule of rotation between the multiple versions of the design may be constructed such that the thermal profile of the integrated circuit balances out during operation. A linear programming framework may be used to analyze the multiple designs and construct a thermally aware rotation scheduling and binding. For example, the K most efficient versions may be selected and then durations for operating each version within a rotation may be determined.
