Abstract: One or more techniques for determining time-varying stress and strain fields within a subsurface region include integrating a seismic model (110) of a reservoir within the subsurface region with a geomechanical model (140) of the subsurface region. An estimate of the time-varying stress and strain fields within the subsurface region during production of the reservoir are determined, wherein the estimate is based on the integration of the seismic model with the geomechanical model. The integration of the seismic model with the geomechanical model can be used to predict the feasibility of passive seismic monitoring for a reservoir within a subsurface region (170).

Title: Method and apparatus for supporting broadcast and multicast services in a wireless communication system
Inventor: TENNY NATHAN EDWARD
IPC: H04W72/12
Filed: 2008-08-13
Granted: 2014-06-17
Abstract: Techniques for support broadcast and multicast services in a wireless communication system are described. In an aspect, a transmitter (e.g., a Node B) sends configuration information conveying a mapping of long service identifiers (IDs) to short service IDs for advertised services. The transmitter also sends scheduling information conveying a mapping of short service IDs to radio resources used for scheduled services in the current scheduling period.  The short service IDs reduce the amount of scheduling information to send. In another aspect, the transmitter sends information identifying services being transmitted and services being advertised but not transmitted. Receivers (e.g., UEs) may use this information to determine whether or not to send requests for services of interest. In yet another aspect, the transmitter sends configuration information for services being advertised but not transmitted. This may allow the transmitter to start these services quicker when requested by the receivers.
