Title: Composition and procedure for facilitating elimination of graffiti from concrete, stucco, and painted surfaces
Inventor: MARTIN LOUIS-MARIE
IPC: B05D5/00

Abstract: A safe and easy to use specially formulated polymer composition .TM., and procedure.TM., and process.TM., and available in different special "kits".TM., such as concrete, stucco, and painted wall surface kits.TM., and which will allow such to return to their normal clean-looking condition, by using an altered application roller sleeve.TM., and whereas certain additives such as silicone caulking®, fluorinated silicone caulking®, or silicone resin®, can be added to help make it more semi--permeable, repel water, oil, and graffiti. As well, a special kit can also be made, by instead using ordinary house paint.TM.. In particular, for concrete wall surfaces only, a special set of concrete shade cards.TM., will be used to match the correct concrete wall surface, and the proper "Concrete Graffiti Elimination Kit".TM., and will be used to eliminate, and cover up the graffiti, and as well, existing rust will also be simulated to match the rest of the concrete wall surface, by using an oxide powder colouring system.TM., and by first applying it unto the altered application sleeve.TM., and rubbing it unto the concrete shade polymer composition.TM.. When new graffiti re-appears, the same safe and easy to use polymer composition.TM., and procedure.TM., and process.TM., will once more be used to cover up, and eliminate the new graffiti, or one can instead, now use the "Industrial Cleaner/Conditioner".TM.  made with or without caustic soda, to eliminate graffiti on the polymer composition .TM., or ordinary painted wall surface.TM., and return them back to their original clean-looking condition. As well, after using the "Industrial Cleaner Conditioner, to melt down that graffiti, you can then quickly blend it all in, and re-apply the same polymer composition .TM., or house paint.TM.. By doing so, you will not have any "shadows", "ghosts", or "silhouettes" bleed through, as none now exist to be able to do so.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for surface stabilizing a component by means of a laser shock beam method, in which a laser beam generated by a processing laser is used to decompose a coating applied to a metal surface for stabilizing of the component with formation of a plasma by evaporation or pyrolysis, such that the surface is plastically deformed by a shock wave generated by the interaction of the plasma with the metal surface. The laser shock beam method is monitored by recording the light emission values of the plasma. The light emission values are recorded by means of a measuring laser at a delay with relation to the decomposition of the coating by means of the processing laser.

Abstract: Down-sampling of an image may be performed in the DCT domain. Transform matrices are obtained for down-sampling a DCT image of size M x N to a down-sampled DCT image of size I x J. The transform matrices may be used to down-sample the DCT image directly in the DCT domain. A spatial domain down-sampling method is selected and applied to the DCT image to produce a down-sampled DCT reference image. The transform matrices are selected by solving an optimization problem, leading to transform matrices which achieve a desired trade-off between the visual quality of images obtained using the transform matrices and the computational complexity associated with using the transform matrices. The visual quality is a measure of the difference between the down-sampled DCT image obtained using the transform matrices and the visual quality of the DCT reference image obtained using a spatial domain down-sampling method.

Title: System and method for managing items in a list shared by a group of mobile devices
Inventor: HUNG MICHAEL
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2010-04-08
Abstract: A method and system are provided for sharing data amongst a group of a plurality of mobile devices without requiring a database or server to centrally store the shared data. The shared data is instead stored by each group member individually while controlling the manner in which the shared data is updated. The shared data can be used to manage tasks in a group project. To manage updates, the shared data is atomized such that individual databases in the shared data are separated or otherwise delineated into one or more records, each record having associated therewith, a value. To maintain a common copy of the shared data at each device, any update is sent to all group members using an intermediate message exchange service that is capable of transmitting a sent message to more than one recipient if necessary. In this way, the updates are multicast to the group. To manage the content of the shared data, each update comprises one or more changes to a current copy of a corresponding record.
