Abstract: A method for assembling an update for a software release is described, including defining classes of software components, having a plurality of instances, each instance having a plurality of versions of the software components. A correspondence is established between a version of an instance of a first class and a second class for conditionally assigning indicators to the version of the instance of the first class based on indicators assigned to versions of the second class, and vice versa. Time stamps are assigned to each version of a software component of each instance of each class, and indicators identifying a release status of said each version are assigned to each version of a software component of each instance of each class. Rules are defined for processing the time stamps and the indicators. A single version of a software component of each instance of each class is selected based on processing of the time stamps and the indicators according to the rules. The update of the software release is assembled from selected versions of software components. A corresponding system is also provided.

Granted: 2014-08-19
Abstract: A conveyor belt reinforcing fabric weave is disclosed, having a plurality of center tension warps crimped about a plurality of middle wefts. Upper and lower wefts lie above and below the middle wefts. The upper and lower wefts are in opposition to each other and in non-opposition with the center wefts. Binder warps are interlaced above and below the central tension warps in alternating sequence, with at least one of the binder warps interlacing upper and lower wefts other than those interlaced by an adjacent binder warp. Interlacing of the middle wefts by the central tension warps locks the wefts in place, providing enhanced resistance to faster pullout. The lack of straight tension warps provides a highly flexible fabric that can be used in multi-ply applications. A  conveyor belt incorporating one or more plies of the inventive fabric is disclosed, as is a method for manufacturing the belt.

Abstract: Systems and methods which provide modeling or simulation of gamma ray (GR) tool response using a hybrid analytical and numerical technique are shown. Embodiments employ a GR tool simulation technique which provides gamma ray information simulated as a function of only the gamma particles which reach the detector without scattering. Embodiments utilize a discretization function to determine the gamma particles which would reach a point detector from each unit volume source of an investigation domain without scattering. Embodiments further utilize the foregoing discretization function with respect to a plurality of point detectors, wherein the particular number and configuration of point detectors are selected to relatively accurately simulate the results of a particular GR detector configuration, such as line detector or volume detector configurations. Embodiments may be implemented using inexpensive and widely available computing platforms, such as personal computers, thereby facilitating economic and practical GR tool simulation.
