Inventor: MOSHAL MARTIN PAUL
IPC: A63F13/12
Filed: 2006-07-26
Abstract: A gaming application is disclosed which is executable by a computer workstation such as a general purpose computer. The workstation is linked to a central gaming server over a network such as the Internet. The application includes a search facility whereby a player can enter search criteria (essentially player preferences) in order to identify available instances of games that have attributes of interest. The search criteria data is sent to the gaming server. The gaming server searches a database of current on-line game instances and responds by sending a datagram containing data for instances of games meeting the search criteria, which are then displayed on the workstation. In one form, the search facility includes a "quick start" feature whereby the user can request that they directly join an instance of a game in progress which meets the search criteria. If the player used the "quick start" feature, and the gaming server found a match, the player is taken directly to the game instance.

Title: Gas monitor using electrochemical cell and method of operating
Inventor: STONE CARY S
IPC: G01N33/00
Filed: 2005-04-28
Abstract: A method and apparatus for gas detection (2) uses a sensor (7)such as an electrochemical (EC) cell and includes a feedback control loop to control a pump (6) to establish a first predetermined gas flow rate to the EC cell. The concentration of the gas at the first predetermined flow rate is measured. If the detected concentration exceeds a predetermined Alert value at the first flow rate an Initial Warning without remedial action is generated, and, the system then changes the gas flow rate before an Alarm is indicated. An Alarm is signaled only if the system verifies the first measurement. Preferably the first flow rate is set to optimize the measurement accuracy of the EC cell being used, and the second flow rate is lower than the first. Verification of an Alarm at the first flow rate may be conducted quickly by a quick-reaction process. The controller may periodically cycle the flow rates between the first and second rates for better accuracy and faster verification times.
