Patent CA-2487324-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YIN HOEY NG HO
IPC: H04M1/72502
Filed: 2004-11-03
Abstract: A method and system for powering of an electronic apparatus having a base unit and one or more portable units is disclosed. The electronic apparatus can be, for example, a cordless telephone system that includes a base unit and a portable unit. The base unit is normally powered by an external power supply. Each portable unit includes a battery pack, preferably a rechargeable battery pack. The portable unit can be placed into a cradle in the base unit. Preferably, the battery pack of the portable unit can be recharged when power is present from the external power supply. Upon failure of the external power supply, the base unit receives power from the battery pack of the portable unit. Thus, the electronic apparatus remains operational even during the power failure. In the context of a cordless telephone, the base unit can be operational during the power failure via a speakerphone operation or additional portable units that are capable of communication with the base unit.

Title: Computerized reverse auction
Inventor: GRAM REGINALD HENRY
IPC: H04L12/16
Filed: 2004-12-03
Abstract: The auction is carried out over a network in which the computers of potential bidders are used to access a web server. The server displays on the bidders' computers a description of an article to be auctioned and a table in association with the description. The table sets out consecutive intervals of time which run from a predetermined starting time and terminate at a predetermined later ending time. A price which diminishes in increments from the starting time to the ending time is also set out in the table. The server responds to entry of a bid by correlating the time of entry of the bid to the price associated with the time interval in which the time of entry of the bid occurs and records the price associated with the time of entry of the bid and the identity of the bidder. The server can also respond to a bid which is to take effect at some future date. In such case, the server records the amount bid and determines the time interval associated with the amount, and, on the date in which the time interval occurs, the server records the amount bid and the identity of the bidder.

Title: Medical data warning notifying system and method
Inventor: NISHIDA EIICHI
IPC: G16H10/60
Filed: 2003-07-14
Abstract: A medical data warning notifying system and method for notifying a hospital only when there is abnormal data in medical data entered by a patient on peritoneal dialysis at home. In the medical data warning notifying system, a patient terminal used by a patient, a server for controlling data exchanged between the patient and a hospital, and a hospital terminal used by a doctor are interconnected over a network. The server receives medical data entered through the patient terminal, stores the received medical data, and judges from the received medical data whether or not there is any abnormal data. If it is judged that abnormal data is included, a warning signal is sent to the hospital terminal. A message created on the hospital terminal is relayed and sent to the patient terminal.

Title: Method and apparatus and program storage device for front tracking in hydraulic fracturing simulators
Inventor: PEIRCE ANTHONY
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 2005-04-26
Abstract: A method and system and program storage device is adapted to continuously update a perimeter of a fracture footprint created in an Earth formation when a fracturing fluid fractures the formation penetrated by a wellbore. Two embodiments of a Volume of Fluid (VOF) software, adapted to be stored in a memory of a computer system, will locate the position of a fracture perimeter during the evolution of that fracture when the software is executed by the processor of the computer system. The two embodiments, called the 'Marker VOF (MVOF)' and the 'Full VOF (FVOF)' software, will continuously update the perimeter of the fracture footprint by updating a Fill Fraction for each tip element. The MVOF software will use a fill fraction mass balance integral equation to update the Fill Fraction for each tip element, and the FVOF software will use an integrated form of fluid flow equations to update the Fill Fraction for each tip element.
Patent CA-2505956-A1 (CA)
Title: Aligned behavior in templated lists
Inventor: COOPER KENNETH BRUCE
IPC: G06F3/048
Filed: 2005-04-29
Abstract: A list control allows for a harmonized display of heterogeneous list element data by using at least two templates. The templates define the layout for the list element data. The templates consult an interface while calculating the layout. The interface provides information regarding the location of at least one gridline; the layout for the list element data is based on that location. The list control implements the interface, thus allowing heterogeneous templates to rely one interface providing on one gridline location. In order to take into account the requirements of each list element for gridline location, the interface requests information regarding a preliminary gridline location for each list element and bases the final gridline location on this information.

Abstract: The composter provided by the invention is intended primarily for composting household waste, i.e. organic waste such as food waste and the like. To this end the composter comprises a rotatable drum with an inlet at an upstream end thereof and an outlet at a downstream end thereof, whereby, when the composter is in use, household waste placed in the composter at the inlet is caused to progress in stages from the upstream end thereof towards the downstream end thereof whereat the composted household waste may be removed at the outlet.  The rotatable drum is of plygonal cross section, i.e. the drum is ten sided in order to facilitate periodic rotation of the drum between successive ones of its ten sides over a period of time. The inlet is mounted on the upstream end of the drum for orientation into an upright position after each rotational movement of the drum. Internally, the drum is provided with a series of deflector means for ensuring that the waste material is directed downstream away from the inlet and towards the outlet as the drum is rotated. The composter, which is moulded from plastic material, is provided with a receptacle for the recovery of leachate. Alternative uses of the composter includes the propogation of earth worms for fishermen.
