Inventor: UCKUN SERDAR
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2011-03-14
Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that aggregates an energy service from one or more participants (114). An aggregator (112) in the system first sends a plurality of price points to a respective participant, wherein each price point corresponds to a particular range of phase angles between a voltage waveform and a current waveform. The aggregator (112) then receives a price point selected by the participant, wherein the selected price point corresponds to a phase angle to which the participant agrees to adj ust. Next, the aggregator (112) aggregates from the one or more participants an energy service with reactive-power reduction.

Abstract: A power supply device for light sources (1), such as halogen lamps, can be supplied from mains (M) via a phase-cut dimmer (28), selectively switchable between a conductive state and a non-conductive state, so as to permit or interrupt feeding of the device from mains. The device includes a power stage (10) to feed at least one light source (L), a drive stage (22, 24) for the power stage (10), and a supply stage (26) for the drive stage (22, 24). Sensor means (30, 34) are provided to detect when said dimmer (28) is non-conductive and when said dimmer (28) is conductive again. The drive stage (22, 24) is coupled to the sensor means (30, 34) to disable driving of power stage (20) when the sensor means (30, 34) indicate that dimmer (28) is non-conductive, and to enable driving of power stage (20) when the sensor means (30, 34) indicate that said dimmer (28) is conductive again, thereby ensuring the feeding of the supply stage and avoiding flickering and flashing of the light source. Preferably, the drive stage (22, 24) comprises a microcontroller which, when the dimmer is non-conductive, switches to a low consumption stand-by state. In these conditions the dimmer (28) is connected to a dummy load (32) adapted to return it to its normal conductive state.

Abstract: The method in accordance with the present invention has: mixing E2M, an organic solvent, a weak base, sodium dithionite, and a phase transfer catalyst to obtain an E2M mixture solution; heating the E2M mixture solution and adding water to obtain a heated E2M aqueous solution having an organic layer; and extracting the organic layer from the heated E2M aqueous solution, and condensing and drying the organic layer to obtain donepezil. Employing sodium dithionite as a reducing agent improves safety over hydrogen gas used in conventional methods and lowers the cost in contrast to the conventional noble metal catalysts that are extremely expensive. Furthermore, the method of the present invention requires only 60 minutes of reaction time to synthesize donepezil with a promising yield more than 85%, which greatly raises the efficiency and economic value of the manufacture of donepezil.

Abstract: Method to associated voice messages that have been left for a user with a missed call entry in a call log. The call log is a function of a mobile device (102) that lists all missed calls. Should the caller now leave a message on a voice mail server located in the network (108) the call log is modified such that the user interface shows that the call from the caller that the called party that was not picked up (206), left a voice mail message (208). For the log a caller identity and time stamp are recorded.

Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to assembling many different ways of designating an address (Source Databases A,B,C) into a single, canonical form (Canonical Database,  Fig. 2 ) and using that canonical form to route the item for delivery (process  Fig. 3 ). The present disclosure deals with systems where the problem presented is that there is either no "proper" address or a plurality of them (e.g. different addresses for different mailers for the same house) ( Fig. 1 ). Preferably, a meta-database ( Fig. 5 ) links across the multiple source databases (A,B,C) and logically connects their contents to the canonical address database, wherein each delivery location has a single associated canonical address designator (532), and each address designator in each source database (536, 538) that refers to that delivery point is linked by the meta-database to that associated canonical designator. Tags (540, 542) may be added to the meta-database entries for accessing the corresponding source databases to update the data.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a resistive voltage divider comprising a plurality n of resistive elements (1) in a configuration wherein the angles m=n-1 between each pair of elements are between 180° and 10°, characterized in that the group of elements is supported by a dielectric (2) the shape of which is such that it allows the creepage distance (3) of the divider to be equal to or longer than the sum of creepage distances of the individual resistances. This arrangement allows a correct insulation of the device because it maintains the outer insulation since in the event of short-circuit the current will flow through the resistances and not through the support.
