Patent CA-2373317-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SINGH HARTEJ P
IPC: G06Q10/06
Filed: 2002-02-26
Abstract: A system and method for dispatching emergency services personnel and equipment are provided. The system includes a central server, a dispatcher terminal and a plurality of mobile data terminals (MDTs) associated with the emergency services personnel and equipment. The central server processes incoming calls for emergency services and outgoing messages from the dispatcher terminal. Based upon the dispatching message for the incoming call, the central server automatically queries a plurality of databases in accordance with a predetermined set of rules for information relevant to the emergency and the dispatched personnel and equipment.      Based upon the information received, the central server automatically transmits appropriate messages and warnings to the MDTs traveling to the site of the emergency and queries the databases further using further predetermined rules.      Additional messages and warnings are transmitted to the MDTs based upon the further information received.

Title: On-line system for quantitative analysis of multi-component additives and coatings in sheet material
Inventor: MUNIDASA MAHENDRA
IPC: G01N23/22
Filed: 2000-05-17
Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus for calculating the amount and composition of inorganic material in a sheet material. The apparatus of the present invention is capable of calculating the composition of all the additives at once without requiring multiple cycles. The apparatus uses a combination of two techniques, namely an X-ray fluorescence analysis and a preferential X-ray absorption analysis. X-ray fluorescence is measured by a thermoelectrically cooled solid state detector. The apparatus can measure more than three additives.  Measurement of argon in the air is used for compensation of electronic drift. An empirical correction is used to compensate for mutual interaction between X-ray fluorescence radiation and clay or talc. The measurement is compensated for dust accumulation by means of fluorescing the dust.
