Abstract: A control system and method of controlling an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system prevents a load anomaly, such as transformer DC offset, resulting from a supply disruption, such as a voltage sag, by modifying the UPS supplied power curve. The UPS supplied power curve maintains a predetermined power for a predetermined duration to cause the UPS supplied power curve to depart from normal supply curve post sag detection. Following the predetermined duration, the UPS supplied power curve is conformed to the normal power supply curve until restoration of the source power supply or engagement of a secondary power source.

Title: Method and system to model, measure, recalibrate, and optimize control of the drilling of a borehole
Inventor: RODNEY PAUL F
IPC: E21B49/00
Filed: 2005-03-01
Granted: 2014-09-09
Abstract: Methods and systems for controlling the frilling of a borehole are disclosed.  The methods employ the assumption that nonlinear problems can be modeled using linear equations for a local region. Common filters can be used to determine the coefficients for the linear equation. Results from the calculations can be used to modify the drilling path for the borehole. Although the calculation/modification process can be done continuously, it is better to perform the process at discrete intervals along the borehole in order to maximize drilling efficiency.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for allocating resources in a distributed environment, such as a packet network, based on a network assessment. One or more resources are allocated to a request in a distributed environment by identifying one or more potential resources to handle the request; obtaining a network connection assessment between the requester and the one or more potential resources; and assigning at least one of the one or more potential resources to the request based on the evaluation. The network connection assessment can assess, for example, a quality of a network connection between the requester and each of the one or more potential resources or evaluate a topology of the network connection between the requester and each of the one or more potential resources. The one or more resources can be selected based on a score assigned to each of the one or more potential resources.

Granted: 2011-08-02
Abstract: In order to determine an estimated value related to an information unit requirement for encoding a signal, a measure (nl(b)) for the distribution of the energy in the frequency band is taken into account (102, 104, 106) as well as the permitted interference for a frequency band and energy of said frequency band. In this way, a better estimated value is obtained for the information unit requirement, such that the signal can be more efficiently and precisely encoded.

Abstract: A forming section, and a method of making paper therewith, for a gap blade former type papermaking machine. A headbox delivers a jet of papermaking stock between a conveying forming fabric and a backing forming fabric moving in a machine direction over an impingement shoe and a forming shoe. The stock jet is delivered at a point of impingement located over the impingement shoe, which is mounted to be adjustable by linear movement in the machine direction to be secured in a selected one of a plurality of positions, and optionally also to be rotatable about a pivot point, to adjust the location of the point of impingement. The forming shoe can be similarly mounted for selective linear adjustment and rotation. The precisely controlled adjustability of the point of impingement, including during machine operation, allows for more precise control over stock consistency to improve paper product quality.

Abstract: Méthodes et dispositif conçus pour être utilisés afin de fournir des dispositifs de communication mobile dans des réseaux locaux sans fil (WLAN). Selon un exemple donné à titre indicatif, un identifiant de réseau de fourniture (« ESSID de fourniture ») est dérivé en se fondant tant sur les critères de fourniture prédéterminés (p. ex. chaîne alphanumérique fixe) que sur les critères propres à un réseau associé à un WLAN (p. ex. nom de domaine réseau). Le dispositif mobile s'associe à un point d'accès sans fil d'un réseau local virtuel (VLAN) de fourniture du réseau à l'aide de l'identifiant de réseau de fourniture. Après l'association avec le point d'accès sans fil à l'aide de l'identifiant de réseau de fourniture, un identifiant de réseau primaire (« ESSID primaire ») associé à un VLAN primaire du réseau est reçu du WLAN lors d'une procédure de fourniture et stocké dans la mémoire du dispositif mobile après authentification. Pour les communications subséquentes avec le WLAN, le dispositif mobile s'associe à un point d'accès sans fil du VLAN primaire du réseau à l'aide de l'identifiant de réseau primaire. La technique qui consiste à dériver un ESSID peut être utilisée à défaut pour produire un ESSID primaire du WLAN.
