IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 2002-10-15
Abstract: A flexible tool for creating enhanced investment portfolios across any asset or combination of assets, by combining investment rules, based on inventor-specific objectives. Many innovative approaches are presented to investors (130) through a user-friendly, platform-neutral, interactive technology (110) that guides them to formalize their analysis. The invention improves efficiency of the investment process by providing this flexibility under a robust platform thereby eliminating errors that could prove costly to the investors. It leverages the fact that many of the processes are repeated across different investment areas and therefore by providing a single platform across which all these decisions can be made, and allowing for aggregation of multiple decisions, the investor is able to compare and contrast investment recommendations across all parts of the investment decision process.

Inventor: WU RAYMOND
IPC: H04W28/20
Filed: 2002-03-12
Abstract: In a radio communication system, where a user, who wants to transmit data, is allocated a certain transmission capacity. It is a general goal to have an efficient resource allocation algorithm. In order to serve as much subscribers of the network as possible, the allocation of the available resources is improved by determining a utilization factor, which is some kind of measure for the exploitation of the transmission capacity allocated to a user. This is done by analysing the communication activities of the user by monitoring for example directly the radio link between the user's terminal and the corresponding basestation with a monitoring device. The monitoring of the communication can also be done in other locations, e.g. by monitoring the communication link between the basestation and the mobile switching centre (MSC) or by directly monitoring one or more of the lower layers of the transmission protocol stack directly within one of the devices being involved in the communication of the user. Then, the allocation of the resources, which is for instance carried out by the MSC, is done depending on this utilization factor. When knowing the utilization factor for a specific user, the resource allocation can be improved by accordingly adjusting or modifying the underlying radio resource allocation algorithm utilized by the MSC.

Title: Noninvasive characterization of a flowing multiphase fluid using ultrasonic interferometry
Inventor: SINHA DIPEN N
IPC: G01N29/30
Filed: 2003-06-10
Abstract: An apparatus for noninvasively monitoring the flow and/or the composition of a flowing liquid using ultrasound is described. The position of the resonance peaks for a fluid excited by a swept-frequency ultrasonic signal have been found to change frequency both in response to a change in composition and in response to a change in the flow velocity thereof. Additionally, the distance between successive resonance peaks does not change as a function of flow, but rather in response to a change in composition. Thus, a measurement of both parameters (resonance position and resonance spacing), once calibrated, permits the simultaneous determination of flow rate and composition using the apparatus and method of the present invention.

Title: Apparatus and method for the treatment of odor and volatile organic compound contaminants in air emissions
Inventor: KERAS ALLAN D
IPC: B01D53/34
Filed: 2005-03-24
Abstract: An odor removal system to neutralize odors and VOC emissions released into t he environment by commercial and/or industrial air streams utilizes Non-Thermal Plasma (NTP) to create a range of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) to cause the oxidation and/or reduction of odor causing molecules and VOC=s. The ROS is generated by drawing atmospheric and/or odorous air through a Dielectric Barner Discharge Plasma Generation Cell (DBDPGC). The g as is activated by passing it through the non-thermal plasma field in the DBDPGC, producing the ROS that are then immediately mixed into the odorous gas stream to be treated, or if it is the odorous gas that is passing through the NTP field, it is inherently mixed. When large volumes of gas, and/or extremely high odor load in combination with large gas volumes must be treated, multiple units can be combined in parallel to treat the gas. The DBDPGC has hermetically sealed hot electrodes and may be used in other applications.

Title: Process for electrolytic coating of a strand casting mould
Inventor: STILLI ADRIAN
IPC: B22D11/059
Filed: 2003-05-19
Abstract: In a process for electrolytic coating of a strand casting mould, the internal surfaces of the strand casting mould which demarcates a mould cavity are coated with a coating material for the purpose of achieving or re-achieving intended mould cavity dimensions. The strand casting mould, as the cathode, an anode positioned in the mould cavity and an electrolyte containing the coating material is used. The electrolyte serving as the carrier of the coating material flows through the cavity of the strand casting mould in a controlled manner. During the electrolytic coating, only the internal surfaces of the mould cavity come into contact with the electrolyte and the external surfaces of the strand casting mould therefore do not have to be covered. The mechanical properties can be kept largely uniform over the entire region. The coating can be achieved more rapidly than with conventional processes.
