Patent CA-2772450-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GARBER SHAUN F
IPC: G07F9/02
Filed: 2010-09-17
Abstract: A vending machine and associated control system in support of vending one or more items to a passenger in a rear passenger salon of a taxicab includes a computer having a processor and memory and a display arranged for viewing by the passenger. Code modules execute in the processor and provide interactive selection controls on at least a portion of the display. The passenger can cause an item to be vended from a remotely-located machine by interacting with the selection controls. One code module communicates vended item cost information to another module for inclusion in a calculation of a total fare for the taxicab ride and any vended items. The vending machine is preferably located in the taxicab trunk and is arranged to deliver items into the passenger salon through a rear deck of the taxicab. The vending machine can be refrigerated using, in part, the taxicab's air-conditioning system.

Patent CA-2789205-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RONGVE KNUT
IPC: H02P23/14
Filed: 2010-02-08
Abstract: The invention comprises a drive controller arranged to provide electrical power from a power supply (10) to a machine (8) or load, over a long AC power cable of the order of kilometers. The drive controller (4) is arranged with circuits and/or control processes to provide AC current at a constant ratio of voltage and frequency to said machine (8) or load. The drive controller maintains voltage and frequency at the machine terminals despite fluctuations in voltage and/or frequency that would ordinarily be caused by the load. This is done by estimating the voltage and current at the machine terminals and adapting the drive controller output accordingly to actively vary the converter output dependent on the load of the machine or other load. In other aspects of the invention a method and a computer program for carrying out the method are described.

Abstract: Method for efficient computation of wave equation migration angle gathers by using multiple imaging conditions. Common reflection angle or common azimuth gathers or gathers including both common reflection angles and common azimuth angles are produced as the data are migrated. In the course of either wave equation migration or reverse time migration, the pressures and particle motion velocities that need to be computed are sufficient to also compute the Poynting vector pointing in the direction of source-side (35) or receiver-side (37) wavefield propagation. From that, the reflection and azimuth angles can be computed (38). The seismic images can then be stored in the appropriate angle bins, from which common reflection angle or azimuth data volumes can be assembled (39).

Abstract: A mechanism for dynamically resolving polymorphic type dependencies between parallel heterogenous run-time environments is provided. The mechanism comprises a registry of class types for software objects, in which each class type is linked to a hierarchy of bindings rooted at the binding for that class type with descendent bindings in the hierarchy relating to more specific sub-classes. At run-time a pointer to an object is received, and the received static type of that pointer can be looked up in the registry to determine the location in the hierarchy of bindings at which to make an initial query for the most specific sub-class compatible with the dynamic type of the object. Subsequently, beginning at the determined location in the hierarchy of bindings, the most specific sub-class compatible with the dynamic type of the object is determined, and a run-time binding based on the most specific sub-class identified can be selected.
