Abstract: A system and method for accelerating network selection by a wireless user equipment (UE) device without having to perform a full band scan (FBS). In one exemplary embodiment, the wireless UE device is operable to determine its location using a satellite-based positioning system such as GPS. Based on determining that the wireless UE device is in a particular area defined by a set of corners, a subset of appropriate frequency data is determined for selective scanning by the wireless UE device. Using the subset of appropriate frequency data, a selective scanning is performed for locating a network by the wireless UE device.

Abstract: An archival storage cluster of preferably symmetric nodes includes a metadata management system that organizes and provides access to given metadata, preferably in the form of metadata objects. Each metadata object may have a unique name, and metadata objects are organized into regions. Preferably, a region is selected by hashing one or more object attributes (e.g., the object's name) and extracting a given number of bits of the resulting hash value. The number of bits may be controlled by a configuration parameter. Each region is stored redundantly. A region comprises a set of region copies. In particular, there is one authoritative copy of the region, and zero or more backup copies. The number of backup copies may be controlled by a configuration parameter. Region copies are distributed across the nodes of the cluster so as to balance the number of authoritative region copies per node, as well as the number of total region copies per node. Backup region copies are maintained synchronized to their associated authoritative region copy.

Abstract: There is provided a process for the preparation of an oil in water (O/W) microemulsion or sub-micron emulsion composition for dermal delivery of at least one pharmaceutically active ingredient, the method including the steps of a) Admixing a first part including at least one of the group consisting of animal, mineral or vegetable oils, silanes, siloxanes, esters, fatty acids, fats, halogen compounds or alkoxylated alcohols; and one or more lipophilic surfactants, and a second part including water and at least one hydrophilic surfactant to achieve homogeneity, b) heating the mix of step a) to a phase assembly temperature in the range of 40 - 99~C, preferably 45 - 950C, more preferably 65 - 850C with continuous mixing to obtain a microemulsion or sub-micron emulsion, c) allowing said microemulsion or sub-micron emulsion to cool, and d) adding a third part to said microemulsion or sub-micron emulsion at a temperature between 2~C and said phase assembly temperature, said third part if necessary being premixed and heated until the components are dissolved and including at least one component selected from the group consisting of non-surfactant amphiphilic type compound, surfactant and water with the proviso that when the third part includes water it also includes a non-surfactant amphiphilic type compound and/or surfactant. The phase assembly temperature can be determined visually by the achievement of translucence in the composition or by measures such as conductivity which peaks and then is maintained at a plateau whilst phase assembly occurs. It has been found that whilst if a non-surfactant amphiphilic type compound such as the polyol is added together with the second part as would conventionally be the case, a microemulsion or sub-micron emulsion is not formed, by adding the so called third part, phase assembly occurs at a lower temperature than would be expected and moreover, this phase appears to assist in maintaining the microemulsion or sub-micron emulsion characteristics of the formulation during storage at normal temperatures.

Abstract: A deicing composition comprises a mixture of a deicing agent and a corrosion inhibitor. The corrosion inhibitor comprises an effective amount of a polyhydroxy carboxylic acid, preferably an aldaric or aldonic acid. The salts of aldaric and aldonic acids are much more potent corrosion inhibitors for deicing than agricultural by-products or refined sugars that are today commonly used as corrosion inhibitors, and therefore can be used at lower concentrations to obtain the same effect as a higher concentration of a simple sugar. The deicing composition can be used as a deicer, anti-icer, or a pre-wetting agent. The deicing agent can include a deicing salt such as sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, and/or calcium chloride. Further, a method of making a deicing composition includes mixing a deicing agent and a corrosion inhibitor. The corrosion inhibitor can be dissolved in a liquid, such as brine, which can be sprayed on a solid deicing salt.

Abstract: A trailer has a deck frame arranged to carry a load thereon for being towed by a towing vehicle in a transport position spaced above the ground. The deck frame is further arranged to be lowered from the transport position to a loading position at ground level. Side rails supporting wheels thereon are hinged at a rear of the deck frame and are pivotally coupled to a hitch arm at a front end. A lift mechanism lifts the front end of the deck frame in the loading position relative to the front of the side rails to simultaneously raise the rear end of the deck frame by lowering the front of the side rails relative to the ground. The hitch arm may remain coupled to the towing vehicle as the deck frame is displaced between the loading and transport positions.
