Title: Systems and methods for real-time conflict-checked, operationally preferred flight trajectory revision recommendations
Inventor: HOLLAND REZA T
IPC: G08G5/00
Filed: 2008-04-21
Abstract: Systems and methods for actively seeking and generating real-time, conflict- checked, operationally preferred flight trajectory revision recommendations are disclosed. The system analyzes air traffic based on a plurality of uniquely integrated inputs, to produce at least one conflict-checked, operationally preferred flight trajectory revision opportunity for an operating vehicle, and a communications component configured to communicate the at least one conflict-checked flight trajectory revision. In one embodiment, the syst em interfaces with the airspace user's operations center (e.g. Airline Operations Center), to communicate the operationally preferred flight trajectory revision opportunity, and allo w the operator to make the decision whether to implement, and request the same from the Air Navigation Service Provider. In another embodiment, the system interfaces with the Air Navigation Service Provider, and while considering operator business objectives, and other constraints, directly aides the air traffic controller in determining more optimal flight trajectory revision opportunities.

Abstract: An apparatus and method perform speech signal compression by variable rate coding of frames of digitized speech samples. The level of speech activity for each frame of digitized speech samples is determined and an output data packet rate is selected from a set of rates based upon the determined level of frame speech activity. Errors are masked in frames of data by providing an indication of a frame abnormality in a current frame. Data is stored of at least one previous frame and the stored data is provided in response to the indication of a frame abnormality. The indication of a frame abnormality is responded to by processing the stored data to reduce values represented thereby. A new frame of data is then produced from the processed data for use as the current frame of data.

Title: Miniature ozone generator, uses thereof for purifying water and methods for doing the same
Inventor: SALAMA MARIANNE
IPC: C25B1/13
Filed: 2007-04-27
Abstract: The present invention concerns a miniature ozone generator device for purifying water. The device comprises a printed circuit board having an ozone producing circuit printed on it which comprises anodes and cathodes alternatively printed and connected in parallel relationship to each other and to a power supply device. The electrodes have rough surfaces, whereby, in use, when the ozone generator is plunged into a vessel containing the water to purify, the electrodes thanks to their rough surfaces, leads to a coalescence of hydrogen bubbles produced by the cathodes into larger hydrogen bubbles, and thus to a higher production of ozone by the anodes. Hydrogen can be additionally removed by absorption of it thanks to a conductive material used to make the cathodes, which can be regenerated for reuse. The invention also concerns the use this miniaturized ozone generator for purifying water or the like and methods for doing the same.

Abstract: The present application is generally directed towards polyacrylonitrile- (PAN-) based, amphophilic graft copolymers, for example, for the production of membranes for liquid filtration. In one aspect, the present invention provides systems and methods for preparing high flux, fouling resistant nanofiltration membranes whose pore size can be readily tuned. In some cases, microphase separation of a graft copolymer comprising a backbone comprising polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and hydrophilic side-chains is used. In some cases, nanochannels of tunable width are formed, which may give the membrane permselective properties and/or anti-fouling character. In some cases, a copoylmer may be used as an additive in the immersion precipitation casting of ultrafiltration or microfiltration membranes. In certain instances, the additive can segregate to the membrane exterior and/or pore surfaces, e.g., due to favorable interactions between the hydrophilic side chains and the surrounding environment, which may create a surface that resists fouling, e.g., by biological molecules.

Abstract: A control line clearing apparatus has a separation sleeve that positions into a downhole element adjacent the element's control port to which a blocked control line connects. The sleeve separates fluid communication from the control port with the annulus between the sleeve and the downhole element, while still allowing effluents in the well tubing to pass through the interior of the sleeve. A feed line is then lowered into the sleeve, and an automatic coupling on the end of the feed line couples to a coupling member inside the sleeve. Once connected, solvent fed through the feed line communicates with the downhole elements control port via a cross-port in the sleeve. In this way, the solvent can act against the other side of the control line blockage.

Abstract: Human interferon-ß protein analogs in which the asparagine at position 25, numbered in accordance with native human interferon-ß, is recombinantly replaced with an aspartate residue exhibit a biological activity of human interferon-ß (e.g. IFN-ß 1b) at an increased level relative to IFN-ß 1b. These analogs are obtained by introducing a gene coding for Asp25 IFN-ß into a cell and expressing the recombinant protein. The resulting IFN-ß protein analog is suitable for large scale manufacturing for incorporation in HA-containing or HA-free therapeutics for treatment of diseases including multiple sclerosis. A reduced Lys endoproteinase-C peptide map technique that produces a fingerprint profile for proteins using an enzymatic digest followed by RP-HPLC is also useful in quality control as an ID test for the IFN-ß protein analog products.
