Abstract: A pneumatic motor (10) is provided that includes an intake chamber (22) in fluid communication with at least one intake channel (28). Each intake channel (28) is in fluid communication with a corresponding cylinder (20), which receives a piston (12) that cycles upwardly and downwardly to rotate a motor axle. A member (30) is placed in each intake channel (28) to seal the corresponding cylinder (20) from each intake channel (28) when compressed fluid in the intake channel (28) has a higher pressure then pressure in the corresponding cylinder (20). An actuator (34) extends downwardly from each piston (12) and has a profile that, during a portion of the upward cycle of the piston (12), causes the actuator (34) to push the member (30) back into each intake channel (28) to allow compressed fluid into each of the corresponding cylinders (20). Exhaust grooves (38) are defined on sections (36) such that during the downward cycle of the piston (12) a seal is broken allowing compressed fluid in the cylinder (20) to bypass the piston (12) an escape through a vent above each cylinder (20).

Title: Matching job candidate information
Inventor: KALIDONIS STEVEN JAMES
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2004-10-07
Abstract: A variety of technologies are applied in matching techniques for job candidate information. For example, a match forecaster can propose query modifications when the number of candidates meeting criteria specified in a query is outside of a desired range. Cloning techniques can find job candidate matches having characteristics similar to those of a desirable candidate. The match techniques can be used in conjunction with conceptualization techniques in which concepts such as job skills, job title, management, and the like, are extracted from a job candidate's resume. A set of concepts can be represented as a point in n-dimensional concept space. Thus, candidates and desired candidate criteria can be represented in the concept space. Those candidates closest to the desired candidate criteria in the concept space can be designated as matches for the desired candidate criteria. In addition, required criteria can be supported.

IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2005-02-25
Abstract: A system and method is provided having an execution environment of an intelligent runtime device framework for generating user interface elements on a user interface (UI), declared on the device. The proposed method allows user interface definitions through XML metadata UI definitions (or other structured definition language schema) instead of requiring an implementation of the screen elements in executable code for the application.  The UI definitions are stored in a common UI repository as a common resource of the applications on the device and is processed at runtime. The UI definitions are independent from the target platform of the device. The "look and feel" of all the applications on the device can be customized and branded as required. Defining layout and ordering of UI elements separately from the applications logic offers modularization of the applications. Such modularization allows reuse of already defined UI screens and sharing them between different applications. The system has a themes and branding repository, a UI repository, a visualization engine, an execution environment, and a UI service. The method includes steps of parsing the XML definitions, applying theme and branding characteristics, providing a screen model to the execution environment, visualizing the user interface, and event handling.

Title: Method of forming an inlaid pattern in an asphalt surface
Inventor: WILEY PATRICK CARL
IPC: E01C23/08
Filed: 2002-12-03
Abstract: This application relates to a method of forming an inlaid pattern in an asphalt surface. The pattern may be selected for functional or decorative purposes. In one embodiment the method comprises the steps of providing a first template having a predetermined pattern; impressing the first template into the asphalt surface when the asphalt surface is in a pliable state to form an impression therein; removing the first template from the asphalt surface to expose the impression; providing a second template having a predetermined pattern matching the pattern of the first template; inserting the second template into the impression; and fixing the second template in position within the impression to form the inlaid pattern. The second template may consist of a preformed thermoplastic grid having a color and/or texture contrasting with the asphalt surface. In another embodiment the second template may include a light source for illuminating the template after it has been fixed in position. A heating method is described for gradually heating large asphalt surfaces using a reciprocating bank of infrared heaters to thermally fix the thermoplastic grid in place.      The heating method permits direct visual monitoring of the work site to achieve optimum thermoplastic adhesion to the asphalt substrate.
