Abstract: A method and system of detecting and mapping a subsurface hydrocarbon reservoir includes determining ratio data for a plurality of orthogonal spectral components of naturally occurring low frequency background seismic data. The ratio data may be compared, plotted, contoured and displayed as a subsurface hydrocarbon reservoir map or a hydrocarbon potential map. The ratio data may represent a vertical spectral component of the seismic data over a horizontal spectral component of the seismic data. The subsurface hydrocarbon reservoir map may include contouring the ratio data over a geographical area associated with the seismic data.

Abstract: When a system stop command is issued during operation of an engine, Tc + Tp, the sum of cancellation torque Tc for canceling torque outputted as reaction force to a drive shaft and pressing torque Tp required to press mesh of a gear mechanism to one side, is set as a torque command Tm2* for a motor (MG2) and then the engine is stopped (Step S100-S180). After the engine is stopped, Tm2* is gradually reduced, and when the relation of Tm2* < Tref is reached (Step 180-S250), the system is stopped. This reduces vibration occurring in the drive shaft when the system is stopped.

Abstract: A wireless media arrangement streams media over a local packet-based wireless network. According to an example embodiment, such a wireless media arrangement (e.g., 100) includes a digitally-encoded non-volatile storage device (NSD) (e.g., 110) such as a hard disc drive (HDD) that stores media, reloadable memory (e.g., 115) such as random-access memory (RAM), a media center (e.g. 105) to stream the stored media to a media playback device over the local network, and an embedded media server (e.g., 120). The media server wirelessly discovers and communicates with a media playback device (e.g., 125) on a local network. The media server also stores database tables on the NSD identifying the stored media. Upon startup, the media server loads a current version of the database tables into the reloadable memory; however, if an error is detected in the current version, then a pervious version of the database tables is loaded. When a change is made to the stored media, the media server stores a new version of the database tables to the NSD while maintaining a previously-stored version of the database tables to facilitate backup in the event of corruption or other error.

Abstract: A set non-volatile storage elements are subjected to a programming process in order to store a set of data. During the programming process, one or more verification operations are performed to determine whether the non¬ volatile storage elements have reached their target condition to store the appropriate data. Decisions about whether to continue programming or whether the programming is successful are made based on whether overlapping groups of the non-volatile storage elements have less than a threshold number of non¬ volatile storage elements that are not properly programmed.

Abstract: Surgical methods and related medical devices for treating glaucoma are disclosed. The method comprises trabecular bypass surgery, which involve bypassing diseased trabecular meshwork with the use of a seton implant. The seton implant is used to prevent a healing process known as filling in, which has a tendency to close surgically created openings in the trabecular meshwork. The surgical method and novel implant are addressed to the trabecular meshwork, which is a major site of resistance to outflow in glaucoma. In addition to bypassing the diseased trabecular meshwork at the level of the trabecular meshwork, existing outflow pathways are also used or restored. The seton implant is positioned through the trabecular meshwork so that an inlet end of the seton implant is exposed to the anterior chamber of the eye and an outlet end is positioned into fluid collection channels at about an exterior surface of the trabecular meshwork or up to the level of acqueous veins.
