Patent CA-2307458-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FOULDS ROGER
IPC: F16L55/035
Filed: 2000-05-09
Abstract: The invention provides improved plumbing noise containment in new home and retrofit construction without dramatically increasing the width of the wall/floor assemblies. The invention dramatically reduces the unwanted noises transmitted from the pipes to the living areas of the home; thus greatly improving the quality of construction and lifestyle for the homeowners. To achieve noise containment in the plumbing four processes must be applied. All the pipes are isolated from the structure. All the pipes have a sound absorption material wrapped around them. The wall and floor cavities that contain pipes are treated with sound absorptive insulation. Wall and floor cavities that contain pipes are covered with a barrier material and/or acoustic wallboard. All four processes are applied before conventional wall/ceiling coverings are installed.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une nouvelle famille de composés à base d'inadone et de tétralone liant la tubuline qui, contrairement aux composés classiques de ce type inhibant la mitose parmi les cellules en voie de division affectées, possèdent les deux caractéristiques uniques suivantes : (1) ils induisent l'apoptose dans les cellules malignes en phase stationnaire (qui ne sont pas en voie de division), mais sans nuire à la viabilité des cellules normales non proliférantes; et (2) ils affectent les cellules ayant acquis la multirésistance médicamenteuse, en agissant plus puissamment que sur les cellules dépourvues de cette résistance. Ainsi, les composés considérés donnent la possibilité de cibler les cellules malignes en chimiothérapie, même après l'échec de thérapies antérieures, sans affecter les cellules et les tissus normaux chez le sujet.

Patent CA-2316095-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DURWARD JAMES
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 2000-08-03
Abstract: The invention is a computerized process for discovering hydrocarbon by applying event recognition to oil&gas wells logs. Presently, geologists must manually search through thousands of oil&gas well logs to find a combination of sensor readings (the "Event") that indicate probable hydrocarbon production. This manual search has two major limitations:   1. Time - it takes a long time to search through thousands, or ten's of thousands, of wells logs looking for the desired correlations between Events from producing well and possible Events in various non-producing wells. In larger regional projects, this can take up to a year in duration and success is not guaranteed; and 2. Size limitation - while humans are very good at determining "what" to look for, we are very poor at holding very large amounts of data in a correlative form in our current memory. This means that we must correlate in a linear manner and keep the correlations small because we lose correlative power very quickly. This inability severely limits the effectiveness of our efforts when attempting to establish a "big picture" view of a large geographic area.   The combination of these two factors limits the speed at which hydrocarbon prospects can be generated which is, in fact, is the primary obstacle to accelerated hydrocarbon production. The invention speeds up the prospect generation process by automating the required correlations, thereby substantially increasing the production and recovery of hydrocarbon.

Patent CA-2322886-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BERRADA MAROUANE
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1999-12-24
Abstract: The invention relates to a communication system comprising a main station, a transmission medium, and terminals. The terminals transmit requests to the main station for the purpose of having reservations granted to them on the transmission medium. Each request indicates a number of reservations. This number of reservations is obtained in a known manner from the number of data packets waiting in the transmission memory of the terminal (MEM(i,t)), from which the number of reservations already requested but not yet granted (counted by a request counter COUNT(i)) is deduced. Upon receiving a request, the main station adds the number of reservations indicated (RESA(i,t)) to an allocation counter (ALLOC(i)) associated with the requesting terminal (i). The invention improves this requesting method so as to render it less vulnerable to data losses. It consists in a resetting of the request counter (COUNT(i)) and allocation counter (ALLOC(i)), for example when an anomaly is detected in the transmission of the data (51). Application: Interactive satellite distribution network.

Filed: 1998-11-18
Abstract: A receiver receives a signal which contains a code vector. The code vector is a member of a predetermined set of code vectors. The code vectors may be Kerdock code vectors. The receiver produces a transform, such as a Walsh transform, of the received signal. The transform contains a coefficient corresponding to each of at least some of the code vectors of the predetermined set of code vectors. The receiver determines data elements transmitted as the received code vector based upon the magnitudes of the coefficients of the transform. When plural code vectors are transmitted, the receiver determines data elements transmitted as a first code vector based upon the magnitudes of the coefficients of the transform, subtracts the first code vector from the received signal, produces a new transform of the subtraction results, and determines data elements transmitted as another code vector based upon the magnitudes of the coefficients of the new transform, and so on.

Title: Olefin purification by adsorption of acethylenics and regeneration of adsorbent
Inventor: KAMINSKY MARK P
IPC: B01J20/34
Filed: 1999-04-28
Abstract: Processes using heterogeneous adsorbents are disclosed for purification of relatively impure unsaturated hydrocarbons such as olefins, which are typically produced by thermal cracking of suitable hydrocarbon feedstocks, b y passing a feed stream, containing acetylenic impurities, and, optionally, saturated hydrocarbon gases, through a particulate bed predominantly comprising a support material having high a surface area on which is dispers ed at least one metallic element. Adsorption is carried out in an essentially dihydrogen-free atmosphere within the bed, effecting selective and reversibl e adsorption and/or complexing of the contained acetylenic contaminants with t he adsorbent, thereby obtaining purified effluent which contains less than a predetermined level of the acetylenic impurities. Selective and reversible adsorption and/or complexing of the contained acetylenic impurities with the  adsorbent is continued until levels of acetylenic impurities in the effluent  stream increase to a predetermined level. Thereafter, the resulting bed of adsorbent is regenerated in the presence of a reducing gas containing dihydrogen to effect release of the contained acetylenic impurities from the  adsorbent.
