Title: Method for sorting seismic data
Inventor: THOMAS JAMES WALTER
IPC: G01V1/28
Filed: 1998-04-02
Abstract: An improved method for gath-ering traces in a 3-D seismic sur-vey is disclosed. In one configu-ration, receiver lines having equally spaced geophone receivers stations are run in one direction, and lines of equally spaced shotpoint stations run orthogonal to the receiver station lines.   The station spacing in each shotpoint and receiver lines is selected to pro-duce a desired spatial resolution, and the individual lines are spaced apart by a distance equal to at least two times the station intervals. In this method, a series of common mid point gathers centered about source/receiver line intersection, referred to as "hybrid gathers" is made, where each hybrid gather includes traces from a desig-nated number of shots in the shotpoint line of the selected intersection that are directed into a designated number of geophone receivers in the receiver line of the selected intersection. Full survey data from the crossed-arrayed shotpoint/receiver geometry can be as-sembled from the series of hybrid gath-ers, however, an advantage of the hy-brid gather is that each hybrid gather can be individually processed and im-aged using techniques that depend upon adequate spatial sampling, such as velocity filtering, which techniques are normally reserved for full common midpoint summed gathers. Other shotpoint/receiver layout configurations used with hybrid gathers are also disclosed.

Abstract: An Internet gateway video server (110) transmits selection information to a set top box connected to a television (114). The set top box (112) displays the selection information on the television (114). A user views the selection information, and inputs user selection requests to the set top box (112). The Internet gateway video server (110) receives the user requests for information and retrieves the information. The server (110) then converts the network information from a network format to a television format. The conversion includes scanning the network information for selection elements, and adding selection elements for transmission in the television format. The converted network information is then transmitted to the set top box (112) for display on the television (114). The user may then make further selections based on the displayed network information.

Abstract: A method of operating contoller-based progressive gaming system (200) having a plurality of gaming machines (G1-Gk) wherein each gaming machine (G) generates unit bet information indicative of a number of unit bets supplied to a machine (G) for playing a game. The method comprises the steps of randomly selecting a bonus mode activation value (218) between a high (212) and low (214) limit, providing a current value (220), providing a base value (216), incrementing the current value (220) when the gaming machines (G) are played so that the current value (220) is incremented by a fixed amount of each unit bet received by each gaming machine (G). A bonus mode time period is entered when the incremented current value (244) is equal to or exceeds the bonus value (218).  Eligible machines (262) are locked-in and random bonus jackpots are made during the bonus time period. Each bonus award decrements the current value (220) by the amount of each award and the bonus mode time period is ended when the current value (220) is less than or equal to the base value (216).
