Abstract: A Lobster Eye X-ray Imaging System based on a unique Lobster Eye (LE) structure, X-ray generator, scintillator-based detector and cooled CCD (or Intensified CCD) for real-time, safe, staring Compton backscatter X-ray detection of objects hidden under ground, in containers, behind walls, bulkheads etc.. In contrast to existing scanning pencil beam systems, Lobster Eye X-Ray Imaging System's true focusing X-ray optics simultaneously acquire ballistic Compton backscattering photons (CBPs) from an entire scene irradiated by a wide-open cone beam from one or more X-ray generators. The Lobster Eye X-ray Imaging System collects (focuses) thousands of times more backscattered hard X- rays in the range from 40 to 120 keV (or wavelength .lambda. = 0.31 to 0.1 A) than current backscatter imaging sensors (BISs), giving high sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and penetration through ground, metal walls etc.. The collection efficiency of Lobster Eye X-ray Imaging System is optimized to reduce emitted X-ray power and miniaturize the device. This device is especially advantageous for and satisfies requirements of X-ray-based inspection systems, namely, penetration of the X-rays through ground, metal and other material concealments; safely; and man-portability. The advanced technology disclosed herein is also applicable to medical diagnostics and military applications such as mine detection, securily screening and a like.

Inventor: ZINN RONALD SCOTTE
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2006-10-13
Abstract: At a computing device such as a wireless communication device, a software component receives a set of constraints for selecting objects representative of time dependent event objects. The constraints may be generated automatically by a software module for displaying a visual representation of different types of time dependent events, e.g., in a GUI having a calendar-type view. The set of constraints may for example define a time range within which events occur or a maximum number of time dependent events occurring before or after a specified time. Each of a plurality of software objects maintaining a distinct set of time dependent event objects representing a distinct type of time dependent event provides a set of time dependent event objects meeting the set of constraints. The sets of time dependent event objects are merged into an ordered list based on an ordering criterion and provided to the software module for display.

Title: Method and system for governing block speed
Inventor: NEWMAN FREDERIC M
IPC: E21B23/00
Filed: 2008-09-02
Abstract: A task input is received at a well service rig. The maximum allowable speed is determined for the task. Current block speed inputs are received. The throttle position for the engine controlling the block is evaluated to determine if the block is to be sped up or slowed down. When the throttle position indicates the operator is attempting to speed up the block, the current block speed is compared to the maximum allowable speed and the engine is only allowed to speed up the block up to the maximum allowable speed, at which point the operators control of block speed is limited to reducing block speed. Each task can have multiple maximum allowable speeds, which can vary based on specified conditions. When the hookload is light or the remaining equipment in the well is small, the lock-up feature for the transmission can be disengaged in addition to the block speed governing feature.
