Patent CA-2657187-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CARBALLO SANCHEZ RODRIGO
IPC: F03B13/14
Filed: 2007-06-05
Abstract: Floating device for harnessing swell energy by lateral overflow, said device being formed by hulls which converge in plan view and have a variable freeboard between which the waves propagate. The convergence produces a gradual increase in the height of the wave as it propagates between the hulls, which, together with the gradual reduction in the freeboard from a particular section of said hulls, gives rise to the lateral overflow of the mass of water of the crest over their rails, which is collected in tanks which are at different heights (in accordance with the reduction in the freeboard) and are connected to the corresponding turbines. The angle of convergence between the hulls can be varied in order to be adapted to the sea state. The harnessing system is supplemented with a connecting closure ramp between the sterns of the hulls in order to collect the water which has previously not managed to overflow the structure.

Title: Compiling executable code into a less-trusted address space
Inventor: UNOKI ROBERT SADAO
IPC: G06F9/45
Filed: 2007-11-27
Abstract: Unsafe application programs that implement managed code can be executed in a secure fashion. In particular, an operating system can be configured to execute an application program in user mode, but handle managed code compilation through a type-safe JIT compiler operating in kernel mode. The operating system can also designate a single memory location to be accessed through multiple address spaces with different permission sets. An application program operating in user mode can be executed in the read/execute address space, while the JIT compiler operates in a read/write address space. When encountering one or more pointers to intermediate language code, the application runtime can send one or more compilation requests to a kernel mode security component, which validates the requests. If validated, the JIT compiler will compile the requested intermediate language code, and the application program can access the compiled code from a shared memory heap.

Patent CA-2672679-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SCHMITT PETER
IPC: G01B15/02
Filed: 2007-12-06
Abstract: The material thickness of extended objects can be efficiently determined using two distance measuring devices which project a strip of measuring light onto the object to be measured and operate as light section measuring devices. The first distance measuring device determines the distance from the first main surface of the object, and the second distance measuring device determines the distance from the second main surface of the object, opposite to the first main surface. Potential measuring errors caused by variations of the distance between the two distance measuring devices, resulting from vibrations or thermal deformations, are avoided by the additional use of an X-ray device for determining the material thickness of the object on the basis of the weakening of the X-radiation, caused by the object. The material thicknesss of the object between the first main surface and the second main surface can be determined with a high level of precision and speed, on the basis of the measured distances from the main surfaces of the object and the material thickness determined by the X-ray device.

Abstract: A digital broadcast transmitter includes a randomizer for randomizing a transport stream to produce randomized data, the transport stream including at least one robust data packet, and a known data inserting unit to insert specified data known by a receiver of the transmitter. A first Reed-Solomon (RS) encoder performs RS-encoding of data output from the known data inserting unit and an interleaver interleaves the RS encoded robust data packets. A trellis encoder performs trellis encoding of data output from the interleaver and a second RS encoder changes parity of the parity data used by the trellis encoder by performing RS encoding of the robust data of the trellis encoded data and outputing the changed parity data to the trellis encoder to replace existing parity data previously used by the trellis encoder. A modulator modulates data from the trellis encoder for radio frequency up-conversion.

Abstract: A system for controlling operation of a progressing cavity pump to maintain the motor operating under power disturbance conditions. For a blackout condition, a backspin controller uses regenerative power to provide controlled deceleration of the pump, counteracting backspin and preventing backspinning freely.
