Patent CA-2567709-A1 (CA)
Title: Computer aided design interface
Inventor: AYGAR MEHMET
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2006-11-10
Abstract: In a CAD system, dimensions are entered as an arithmetic combination of quantities expressed in both English and metric units. The system converts the units and combines the quantities to produce the dimension. Also, an undo tool stores undo information in nonvolatile storage, so that drawing operations may be undone at any subsequent time, even after a file has been saved and retrieved, or transferred to another user. The system also associates drawn content with a paper size and orientation, rather than a specific printer, and associates each paper size and type with a printer, so that when printing a page, the paper size and type associated therewith can be used to select a printer. In this way, content may be printed on an appropriate printer based upon a paper size and orientation, without storing printer selections or details in the file.

Title: Film grain simulation method based on pre-computed transform coefficients
Inventor: LLACH JOAN
IPC: G06T9/00
Filed: 2005-10-26
Abstract: Film grain simulation within a receiver (11) occurs by first obtaining at least one block of pre-computed transformed coefficients. The block of pre-computed transformed coefficients undergoes filtering responsive to a frequency range that characterizes a desired pattern of the film grain. In practice, the frequency range lies within a set of cut frequencies fHL, fVL, fHH and fVH of a filter in two dimensions that characterizes a desired film grain pattern. Thereafter, the filtered set of coefficients undergoes an inverse transform to yield the film grain pattern.

Abstract: From the total environmental impact standpoint the efficiency of a fluid heating system is determined by the heat loss in the production and storage of clean hot fluid stage and heat loss in the distribution of hot fluid stage and the heat lost in the waste fluid.  An ultra high efficiency environmental fluid heating method and apparatus is disclosed that is designed to simultaneously 1. reuse a portion of the heat from waste fluid by transferring part of the useable heat of the waste fluid to the clean fluid, and 2. to heat on demand the intake clean fluid to a desired temperature to avoid heat losses during production and storage of clean hot fluid and 3. distribute on point of use the clean hot fluid with minimal distribution heat loss. As the waste fluid drains through the heat recovery device of the fluid heater is at a temperature above the normal fluid heater intake fluid temperature. The heat recovery device that is part of the ultra high efficiency environmental fluid heater can be used to efficiently reuse heat from the waste fluid and preheat incoming clean fluid before the fluid heater heats it. By heating the fluid on site of the distribution point using an on demand-heating device the proposed invention minimizes heat losses from storage. By integrating the hot fluid distribution means into the fluid heater it is possible to achieve high efficiency in fluid distributing and in one embodiment of the invention it is even possible to totally eliminate the need of a hot fluid line in the plumbing system and the heat losses and fluid losses associated with this.
