Title: PWM based source system for marine electromagnetic surveying
Inventor: ELLINGSRUD SVEIN
IPC: G01V3/12
Filed: 2011-01-28
Abstract: A submersible high current PWM-based source system for marine electromagnetic surveying for hydrocarbon 14 exploration includes a topside three-phase PSU 5 coupled (e.g. via an umbilical 6) to PWM current source 9 which drives at least one towed horizontal electric dipole (HED) antenna 10. A control system has a topside control unit 4 with an operator interface and a PWM control unit 8. A time distribution network comprising a GPS receiver 2 distributes a time signal to the PWM control unit. The system converts a periodic, arbitrary digital signal to a high output current in a HED optimized for maximum dipole moment, using PWM modulation and real-time current regulation for precise output amplitude. The system allows a wideband EM signal to be generated with sharp transition characteristics and substantially independent of the AC input power characteristics. This allows for improved tailoring of an EM source signal for a specific subterranean prospect, and thus increased accuracy of the EM data.

Title: Optimizations for an unbounded transactional memory (utm) system
Inventor: SHEAFFER GAD
IPC: G06F12/1045
Filed: 2009-06-26
Abstract: A method and apparatus for optimizing an Unbounded Transactional Memory (UTM) system is herein described. Hardware support for monitors, buffering, and metadata is provided, where orthogonal metaphysical address spaces for metadata may be separate associated with threads and/or software subsystems within threads. In addition, the metadata may be held with hardware in a compressed manner with regard to data transparently to software. Furthermore, in response to metadata access instruction/operations the hardware is capable of supporting a forced metadata value to enable multiple modes of transactional execution. However, if monitors, buffered data, metadata, or other information is lost or conflicts are detected hardware provides for variations of a loss instruction that is able to poll a transaction status register for such loss or conflict and jump execution to a label in response to detecting the loss or conflict. Similarly, multiple variations of a commit instruction are provided for to allow software to define commit conditions and information to clear upon commit. Furthermore, hardware provides support to enable suspension and resume of transactions upon ring level transitions.

Title: Image occlusion processing using both object bounding and object bounded volumes
Inventor: NYSTAD JA RN
IPC: G06T7/00
Filed: 2012-05-16
Abstract: When rendering a scene 1 including a complex object 3 made up of many individual primitives, rather than processing each primitive in turn, a bounding volume 4 which surrounds the complex object 3 is generated and the scene 1 is then processed using the bounding volume 4 in place of the actual object primitives. The claimed method identifies a scene object 3, generates a first bounding (i.e. object covering, surrounding or enclosing) volume 4 representing the object and assesses whether the bounding volume is at least partially occluded (overlapped) by other scene objects, e.g. feature 2; the method further comprises generating an object bounded (i.e. object covered, surrounded or enclosed) volume (70, Figure 11) and assessing whether this bounded volume, also representing the object, will at least partially occlude (cover, obscure) other scene objects; an object processing determination is made accordingly. Further (subdividing) bounding volumes may be used (Figures 8-10). Depth (z) only rendering may be performed, based on bounding or bounded volumes, or corresponding primitives, being tagged with an identifier.

Title: Differentiation of messages for receivers thereof
Inventor: SGRO ANTONIO MARIO
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 2013-05-28
Abstract: A solution for sending messages on a data-processing system is proposed. A corresponding method comprises upon a message to be sent from a sender 110s to at least one receiver 110t1, 110t2 being submitted , parsing the message to identify an original expression OEa, OEb, OEc, therein matching an indication of one of a set of pre-defined concepts, determining, for the receiver, a preferred expression CEc of the matched concept, among the corresponding original expression and a set of candidate expressions predefined to express the matched concept, according to a rating thereof representing an expected understanding by the receiver, processing the message for the receiver by replacing the original expression according to the corresponding preferred expression for the receiver, and sending the processed message to the corresponding receiver. The arrangement may allow the same message to be sent to multiple recipients wherein the content of the message is differentiated according to the expected level of understanding of the recipients for individual expressions used in the message. This ensures that the message that a particular recipient receives is clear and understandable for that particular recipient user and avoids potential further exchange of messages to clarify an original intended meaning of an otherwise unclear expression or misunderstanding the meaning of the original message. The expressions may be identified as specialist, jargon, short or context-specific expressions for which particular recipients may require further detail or an alternative way, e.g. simplified, of expressing the same concept. A feedback mechanism is also in place to update the expected levels of understanding for the recipients as the system evolves.
