Patent CA-2461652-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DEJARNATT ALEX
IPC: H04L29/10
Filed: 2004-03-23
Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for abstracting processing layers within a messaging infrastructure so that changes or enhancements can be made to the infrastructure while retaining existing functionality. Message transport implementations are abstracted within a message layer, allowing other layers within the infrastructure to interact with messages in a more generic fashion, largely independent of message transport. Transport examples include named pipes, Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), etc. A channel layer above the message layer abstracts message exchange implementations, allowing other layers within the infrastructure to send and receive messages in a more generic fashion, largely independent of the message exchange semantics of a specific implementation. Message exchange examples include datagrams, dialogs, monologs, queues, and the like. Above the channel layer and message layer, a service layer abstracts the binding implementations that bind message exchange implementations to user code implementations.

Title: Nail gun
Inventor: WEBB ROGER CLYDE
IPC: F41B11/62
Filed: 2002-10-28
Abstract: Nail gun (1) comprises barrel (23) and loading mechanism (20) for loading nail from magazine (19) into muzzle (14). Nail (3) is adapted to be propelled by punch (16) via piston shuttle (7) movable by a gas propellant that is initially stored as a liquid in reservoir (2). The liquid is heated to a super critical state in high-pressure chamber (4) by heating element (5) to induce a phase change such that the liquid becomes a highly dense gas. The phase change from liquid to gas provides the energy required to expel nail (3) from muzzle (14), regardless of the ambient temperature. The propellant is preferably CO2 which is heated to 31.06~C. Pressure selector (9) allows for different pressure settings suitable for softwood, hardwood and masonry nailing applications. Gun (1) produces minimal noise and so reduces workplace noise pollution.

Title: Apparatus and methods for downhole determination of characteristics of formation fluids
Inventor: MULLINS OLIVER
IPC: G01N23/06
Filed: 2002-12-05
Abstract: An oil sample is subjected to nuclear electromagnetic irradiation downhole, and the electron and/or mass density of the oil sample is determined by measuring the attenuation of the irradiation and relating the attenuation to the electron density. If the irradiation is high energy gamma ray irradiation, the attenuation is considered to be a function of Compton scattering only, which in turn is related to the electron density of the sample. If X-rays are utilized, attenuation is preferably measured in two energy windows. Using the two different attenuation values found in the different windows, the attenuation due to Compton scattering can be found and related to the electron and/or mass density of the sample. In addition, attenuation due to photoelectric absorption may also be determined and related to the presence of one or more heavy elements in the oil (e.g., sulfur) and/or sanding.

Patent CA-2475720-A1 (CA)
Inventor: REMILY NICOLE
IPC: A21D13/37
Filed: 2004-07-26
Abstract: A triple coextruded baked good having a bar shape with a desired substantially smaller height than width, is continuously produced with distinct, at least substantially uniform concentric fillings which are visually apparent at opposing cut ends of the baked piece. The bar-shaped products are preferably cookies with dissimilar fillings, such as a fruit filling and a cheese-cake filling. Undesirable excessive flow of a middle filling or layer towards the cross-sectional ends or sides rather than the top and bottom of the coextrudate is substantially reduced by obstructing and diverting the flow of the middle filling through the middle die orifice so that it flows towards the top and bottom elongated portions of the middle annulus. A baked product having a substantially even middy concentric layer which is desirably uniformly thick and continuous at least across the top and bottom is obtained. Post-extrusion shaping or mechanical flattening of the dough with a roller is not needed to obtain a desired cross sectional shape having a substantially rectangular middle portion and curved or rounded shoulders, thereby avoiding sticking and tearing of the dough. Ultrasonic cutting of the baked product is employed to avoid substantial visual smearing of one layer of filling into another.

Patent CA-2480546-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PICARD MICHEL
IPC: H04N1/04
Filed: 2004-09-03
Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and optimizing 3D models of objects. A laser scanner is controlled by a data processing subsystem that controls the scanning and processes the data generated. From an initial model, either a raster scan of the object or an initial scan, the system scans the object multiple times, each time adjusting the laser scanner to maximize a correlation between the data generated and the model. The model is also updated using the scan data and taking into account the adjustments which were applied to the laser scanner. Other adjustments, such as those which would remove the effect of relative motion on the scan data, are also accounted for when incorporating scan data into the model. The model is recursively adjusted and optimized using previous scan data (both pre-recorded and fresh scan data) and previous adjustments. The model may be modified and adjusted using previous scan data and an Iterative Closest Point method. The method and systems may be used in uncontrolled environments where unpredictable motions and vibrations can occur. The invention may be used with scanners mounted on a robotic arm, scaffolding, unstable tripods, at the tips of booms or lifts, or the scanners may be simply held by hand.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method of measuring an optical path difference in a sensing interferometer. Light from a source is directed in the sensing interferometer.  The light reflected from the sensing interferometer is splitted into first and second beams respectively directed into two reference interferometers having optical path differences greater than the coherence length of the source and such that the optical signals are in quadrature. The intensities of the light transmitted by the reference interferometers and recombined light reflected from the reference interferometers are detected for measuring the optical path difference in the sensing interferometer. Additional light sources allow for correction of internal perturbations and absolute measurement of the optical path difference in the sensing interferometer.

Title: Wireless communication method and system for controlling data bit rates to maintain the quality of radio links
Inventor: ZEIRA ELDAD
IPC: H04B17/40
Filed: 2004-02-11
Abstract: A wireless communication method and system for controlling the current data bit rate of a radio link (RL) to maintain the quality of the RL. The system includes a core network (CN), a radio network controller (RNC) and at least one wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). The RL is established between the RNC and the WTRU. The RNC establishes a guaranteed data bit rate, a maximum data bit rate and a current data bit rate associated with the RL. When the RNC  senses an event which indicates that the quality of the RL has substantially deteriorated, the RNC reduces the value of the current data bit rate. Then, in a recovery process, if a similar event does not occur during an established waiting period, the RNC restores the current data bit rate back to the maximum data bit rate.
