Patent CA-2658922-A1 (CA)
Title: Integration of geomechanics and seismic analysis for passive seismic feasibility analysis
Inventor: HSU SHENG-YUAN
IPC: G01V1/28
Filed: 2009-03-18
Abstract: One or more techniques for determining time-varying stress and strain fields within a subsurface region include integrating a seismic model (110) of a reservoir within the subsurface region with a geomechanical model (140) of the subsurface region.  An estimate of the time-varying stress and strain fields within the subsurface region during production of the reservoir are determined, wherein the estimate is based on the integration of the seismic model with the geomechanical model. The integration of the seismic model with the geomechanical model can be used to predict the feasibility of passive seismic monitoring for a reservoir within a subsurface region (170).

Patent CA-2661794-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NEMOZ GERARD
IPC: H05K7/20
Filed: 2007-08-27
Abstract: This rack (1) houses rackable modules (2, 3) of electronic equipment and has a natural convection cooling system thanks to ventilation holes (20, 21) made in its lower (10) and upper (11) walls and a forced-air cooling system thanks to internal air delivery rails (30) fed with pressurized air by means of a distribution box (31) connected to a forced-air circulation line (37). By using internal delivery rails for the forced air it is possible for the circulation of drawn air to be only a slight obstacle to the air circulation obtained by natural convection. Compared with standard configurations, this makes it possible to lower the operating temperature reached by the equipment in the event of a loss of forced ventilation.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel methods and kits for diagnosing the presence of cancer within a patient, and for determining whether a subject who has cancer is susceptible to different types of treatment regimens. The cancers to be tested include, but are not limited to, prostate, breast, lung, gastric, ovarian, bladder, lymphoma, mesothelioma, medullablastoma, glioma, and AML. Identification of therapy-resistant patients early in their treatment regimen can lead to a change in therapy in order to achieve a more successful outcome. One embodiment of the present invention is directed to a method for diagnosing cancer or predicting cancer- therapy outcome by detecting the expression levels of multiple markers in the same cell at the same time, and scoring their expression as being above a certain threshold, wherein the markers are from a particular pathway related to cancer, with the score being indicative or a cancer diagnosis or a prognosis for cancer-therapy failure. This method can be used to diagnose cancer or predict cancer-therapy outcomes for a variety of cancers. The markers can come from any pathway involved in the regulation of cancer, including specifically the PcG pathway and the "sternness" pathway. The markers can be mRNA, microRNA, DNA, or protein.
