Title: Open architecture based domain dependent real time multi-lingual communication service
Inventor: CASKEY SASHA PORTO
IPC: G06F17/28
Filed: 2009-03-10
Abstract: A system and method for real-time network communications provides a session identifier (Session ID) as a public key for group communication (20, 22) between clients, and provides a channel identifier (Channel ID) representing a private key for each of a plurality of clients (12). The channel identifier includes client-specific attributes, which function to indicate grouping criteria for the group communication. A dynamic communication link is created over a network between a client (12) and a service (14) based upon the public and private key combination such that group communication is enabled based upon the attributes of the private key and the public key. Communications are translated using a translation service (16) which employs the attributes as-sociated with the private key and the public key combination to provide response information in a designated language to enable multi- lingual real-time communications.

Title: Adaptive cushion method and apparatus for minimizing force concentrations on a human body
Inventor: TAYLOR GEOFFREY L
IPC: G01L5/00
Filed: 2009-03-13
Abstract: An adaptive cushion method and apparatus (20) for minimizing forces on body parts of a person on a chair or bed includes an overlay cushion (21) having a plurality of individual air bladder cells (22), each having thereon a novel stretchable piezoresistive force sensor(33), and an electro-pneumatic control system (20A) for inflating and deflating individual cells to pres-sures measured by a transducer (44). Force concentrations sensed by the force sensors are minimized using a novel algorithm by varying the inflation pressure in a first cell while measuring the sum of the forces exerted on all cells, repressurizing the first cell to that pressure for which a minimum total force was obtained, repeating the cyclical variation in pressure and re-inflation to a minimum force-obtaining pressure for each of the remaining cells, and repeating the sequence for all cells until the force varia-tions are minimized below a predetermined threshold value.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method that increases the amount of power available from a super-turbocharger, and the fuel efficiency of an engine. The system utilizes a catalytic converter to provide thermal buffering to the turbine protecting it from thermal transients. Since the catalytic converter is exothermic, a portion of the compressed air generated by the compressor is fed back to the turbine via a feedback valve decreasing the exhaust temperature and increasing the mass flow provided to the turbine. The feedback valve can be used to reduce compressor surge during low rpm, high load conditions of said engine. The amount of compressor feedback air is limited to the amount of excess thermal energy so that an optimum turbine operating temperature of the combined engine exhaust gas and compressed air can be maintained. Excess power generated by the turbine is then used to drive the engine crank shaft.
