Patent CA-2579762-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZORASTER STEVEN
IPC: G01D18/00
Filed: 2005-09-07
Abstract: A method, systems, and computer readable media optimize the correlation of well log data utilizing dynamic programming (126). A geological signature in well log data from a reference well (205) is mapped onto well log data from one or more target wells (210) by using a dynamic programming algorithm to calculate multiple solutions (215). The solutions may be calculated by determining an alignment between a connected subset of data elements comprising the geological signature in the reference well log data (230) and either a totality or subset of data elements comprising the target well log data (235). Each calculated solution has an associated cost measure with the least cost measure (220) representing the optimal solution. Each solution represents a mapping of the geological signature from the reference well log data onto the target well log data (235). The calculated solutions are displayed to a user along with the location of well picks mapped from the reference well log data (220, 225).

Abstract: A series of mutants of Anthrax lethal factor (LF) are disclosed which define a conformational epitope or region of the molecule that interacts with the LF  target, the MEK enzyme. Such mutants or variants, and nucleic acids encoding them are disclosed. The knowledge of such binding, separate from recognition of MEK by the protease active site of LF, serves as the basis for novel screening assays for discovery of inhibitors of this additional form of LF-MEK  binding which is necessary for ultimate proteolysis and toxicity. The nontoxic LF mutants are useful as immunogenic compositions for generating antibodies and a state of immunity specific for the LF component of a B. anthracis infection or exposure otherwise to the anthrax lethal toxin.

Title: Power management in a wlan infrastructure
Inventor: TODD TERENCE D
IPC: H04W52/02
Filed: 2007-03-30
Abstract: A wireless local area network includes multiple access points with overlapping coverage, and modes of different power consumption are available to the access points. It is assessed whether the traffic load of the network may be adequately supported using fewer access points in an active mode. If so, the traffic load is redistributed from certain active access points among the remaining access points in the active mode. The certain access points are switched into a mode of lower power consumption than the active mode. Similarly, it is assessed whether the traffic load of the network is adequately supported by the current number of access points in an active mode. If not, certain access points which are in a mode of lower power consumption are switched to the active mode. The traffic load is redistributed among the access points in the active mode including the certain access points.

Abstract: Sophisticated memory systems and intelligent machines may be constructed by creating an active memory system with a hierarchical architecture.  Specifically, a system may comprise a plurality of individual cortical processing units arranged into a hierarchical structure. Each individual cortical processing unit receives a sequence of patterns as input. Each cortical processing unit processes the received input sequence of patterns using a memory containing previously encountered sequences with structure and outputs another pattern. As several input sequences are processed by a cortical processing unit, it will therefore generate a sequence of patterns on its output. The sequence of patterns on its output may be passed as an input to one or more cortical processing units in next higher layer of the hierarchy. A lowest layer of cortical processing units may receive sensory input from the outside world. The sensory input also comprises a sequence of patterns.

Abstract: A system for pushing data to a wireless data device receives an identifier for the wireless data device and determines a corresponding gateway server by querying a mapping of wireless data device identifiers to wireless gateway servers. The system then submits a request to push the data to the wireless data device via the determined gateway server. If the gateway server rejects the request to push data to the wireless data device, the system repeatedly submits requests to push data to the wireless data device via a different gateway server until the request is accepted. The system then updates the mapping for the identifier of the wireless data device with the different gateway server which accepted the request to push data to the wireless data device.

Patent CA-2612787-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GEBHARDT PETER
IPC: F25B41/00
Filed: 2007-11-29
Abstract: The heating apparatus has a boiler connected to a heat exchanger. Liquid exchange between the boiler and the heat exchanger takes place solely as a result of convection. The heat exchanger has flowing through it on the primary side a heat transport medium which is heated by a heat source with a lower temperature than the hot side of the boiler and is evaporated. The heat transport medium is subsequently compressed by a compressor regulated according to rotational speed and is supplied to a primary side of the heat exchanger. In this case, the heat transport medium discharges its entire evaporation heat to the boiler. The condensed heat transport medium subsequently flows back to the heat source. To achieve high efficiency, the compressor is controlled by a regulating device connected to sense the temperature of the heat transport medium and/or the temperature of the hot side of the heat exchanger.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for producing controlled steady state nuclear fusion with isotopes of low atomic numbers being the most useful reactants, such as Deuterium, Tritium and Helium3. The apparatus consists of a high voltage power supply and a high voltage spherical capacitor, constructed in such a way, that the outer shell is the anode and contained centrally within it, a hollow cathode, into which positive ions of the reactant gases can be injected through dielectric tubes and confined electrostatically within the cathode, until such high temperatures are reached, as to allow nuclear fusion to take place. The interior chamber of the cathode forms part of a her- metically sealed fuel circuit running through the capacitor, a turbo molecular pump is also connected in line with the fuel circuit, to drive the reactant gas through the reaction chamber. The fusion product, which is mainly high energy Neutrons, Protons and alpha particles, is con- sequently converted to heat in the dielectric medium contained within the space between the anode and the cathode, this heat can easily be extracted and converted into useful energy using known methods.
