Title: Method and apparatus for uplink resource allocation in a frequency division multiple access communication system
Inventor: XIAO WEIMIN
IPC: H04W72/04
Filed: 2007-01-12
Granted: 2010-09-28
Abstract: To address the need for a resource allocation scheme that results in a better tradeoff between cell-edge performance and overall spectral efficiency, a communication system (100) is provided that allocates uplink transmit power to user equipment (UEs) (102, 104) based on a fractional power control scheme (300). In another embodiment, since the cell-edge users are also likely to be power limited, the communication system may implement a minimized uplink transmission bandwidth resource allocation scheme (404, 406, 408, 410, 412, 414) that may work with the fractional power control scheme to achieve a level of performance desired for uplink transmissions in 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) and 3GPP2 Evolution communication systems.

Title: Schema-based dynamic parse/build engine for parsing multi-format messages
Inventor: SINGH THAKUR L
IPC: G06F7/00
Filed: 2006-06-29
Granted: 2014-10-21
Abstract: A parse/build engine that can handle multi-format financial messages. The engine converts the different format messages into a common format, and the common format message is then processed by the business service application. A  parser examines the message and determines an appropriate schema for the particular format of message received. The schema is a data structure in a schema registry that includes a grammar structure for the received format as well as pointers to handlers for converting the different fields of the message into the internal message format using the grammar structure (the "grammar" can include field sequence, field type, length, character encoding, optional and required fields, etc.). The handlers are individually compiled.  As formats change, new formats or changes to old formats can be dynamically added to the parse/build engine by loading new schema and handlers.

Title: A modified process for hydrocarbon recovery using in situ combustion
Inventor: AYASSE CONRAD
IPC: E21B43/243
Filed: 2008-02-13
Granted: 2010-05-25
Abstract: A modified method of in situ recovery of hydrocarbon from an underground hydrocarbon-containing formation. An "L" shaped production well, having a vertical upper section, and a lower horizontally-extending leg which is positioned low in the hydrocarbon formation, is provided. The horizontal leg connects to the vertical section of the production well at a heel portion and has a toe portion at an opposite end thereof. An oxidizing gas is injected into the formation proximate the vertical section of the production well. A vertical combustion front is created which is caused to sweep outwardly therefrom and laterally within the formation above the horizontal leg, from the heel to the toe of the horizontal leg, causing hydrocarbons in the formation above the horizontal leg to be upgraded and liquify, and thereafter to drain downwardly into the horizontal leg which is permeable, where such liquified hydrocarbons are then delivered to surface via production tubing. A non- oxidizing gas is injected into the heel portion of the horizontal leg via injection tubing contained within the vertical section of the production well. Benefits of the modified method of in situ recovery include decreased costs and lessened environmental impact.
