20090207868 | Multiple-Wavelength Tunable Laser - A tunable laser includes dispersion optics for separating generated laser pulses into first and second wavelength pulses directed along first and second optical paths. First and second reflective mirrors are disposed in the first and second optical paths, respectively. The laser's output mirror is partially reflective and partially transmissive with respect to the first wavelength and the second wavelength in accordance with provided criteria. A first resonator length is defined between the output mirror and the first mirror, while a second resonator length is defined between the output mirror and the second mirror. The second resonator length is a function of the first resonator length. | 08-20-2009 |
20100135344 | Controlling Second Harmonic Efficiency of Laser Beam Interactions - A method is provided for controlling second harmonic efficiency of laser beam interactions. A laser system generates two laser beams (e.g., a laser beam with two polarizations) for incidence on a nonlinear crystal having a preferred direction of propagation. Prior to incidence on the crystal, the beams are optically processed based on the crystal's beam separation characteristics to thereby control a position in the crystal along the preferred direction of propagation at which the beams interact. | 06-03-2010 |

20100077190 | Method To Retain Crucial Thin Client System Settings - A system comprises a first non-volatile storage device that contains an operating system. The system also comprises a second non-volatile storage device that contains basic input/output system (BIOS) code and at least one parameter used by the operating system or by a network interface, and not by the BIOS code. | 03-25-2010 |
20110119434 | System And Method For Safely Updating Thin Client Operating System Over A Network - A method for updating a thin client image includes the steps of writing a service operating system (OS) from a network device to limited capacity memory of a thin client device, writing a large part of a new image from the network to the memory of the thin client in a series of portions, without writing over the service OS, and writing a final small part of the new image over the service OS. | 05-19-2011 |
20130030786 | EMULATING INPUT/OUTPUT COMPONENTS - Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to emulating an input/output component of a device. The device includes an external connection to connect the device to another device. The device also includes multiple input/output components. One of the input/output components is selected. The selected input/output is emulated for the other device. | 01-31-2013 |
20140223432 | Display Of Host Operating System User Interface Elements Within A Guest Operating System Of A Virtual Machine - Example embodiments relate to the display of user interface elements of a host operating system within a virtual machine guest operating system. In example embodiments, the host OS transmits information relating to a user interface element displayed within the host OS to the guest OS. The guest OS may then output a corresponding user interface element, receive input from a user interacting with the corresponding element within the guest OS, and return information describing the user input from the guest OS to the host OS. | 08-07-2014 |
20140289639 | DISPLAY OF OPERATING STATUS INFORMATION OF A CLIENT IN A REMOTE DESKTOP SESSION - Example embodiments relate to the display of operating status information in a remote desktop session. In example embodiments, a client transmits operating status information to a server via a remote desktop session established with the server. In response, the client may receive graphics information including displayed status information inserted by the server based on the operating status information. Finally, the client may output the graphics information on an available display. Other embodiments relate to a corresponding server and processing performed in the server. | 09-25-2014 |

20090044832 | PORTABLE CONCRETE WASHOUT FACILITY - Apparatuses and methods can reduce washout water use and facilitate removal of waste. A transport vehicle can include a water holding tank, a washout tub, and a means for conveying water. Water can be conveyed from the water holding tank to clean concrete from utensils, chutes, pumps, and other implements through a hose. The water can then be separated from the concrete and conveyed back into the water holding tank using a hose and a strainer. | 02-19-2009 |

20100042526 | Credit-debit-chargecard and identity theft fraud prevention method - A new method of fraud prevention for lost, stolen, cloned or on-file creditcards, debitcards and chargecards. This same method will prevent fraudulent transfer of funds from on-line or off-line bank accounts and will prevent the establishment of creditlines or loans in the name of an unwitting consumer. Furthermore, this method can prevent unauthorized accessing of secured computer sites. The method comprises a pre-determined dedicated telephone terminal data-base which is interfaced and/or in communication with: normally closed credit-debit-charge card funding approvalsa; normally blocked banking transactions; normally unauthorized creditline or loan approval; normally inaccessable secured computer sites whereby a consumer-cardholder-subscriber can call the said dedicated telephone terminal database and together with a pre-determined authentication means can open, authorize, approve or access the normally closed/denied operations outlined above for a pre-determined number of transactions and/or time limit just before using them. After transaction(s) and/or time limit expires the open-approval condition will default to the closed-denial mode where it will continue until consumer-cardholder-subscriber wants to re-open the above operations temporarily for his/her own use. It should be obvious that fraud perpetrators will never know when these operations will be activated for brief periods of time and therefore will not be able to perpetrate the fraud. The additional authentication required for the consumer-cardholder-subscriber can be a personal identification number (PIN) and/or password and/or telephone number identification means and/or biometric means especially voice recognition identification on the telephone. | 02-18-2010 |
20100086530 | Cancer-tumor necrosis by artery nutrient-oxygen blocking - This is a new, novel, natural, relatively non-invasive and non-toxic method for the shrinkage and necrosis of cancerous cells, tumors, glands, organs, metastases processes or unwanted growths in human or animal patients. A patient's or other donor's blood is aged and processed which results in the loss of its blood vessel dilating component, nitric oxide. In addition to the loss of the vessel dilating component the other components of the blood become stiffer, stickier and sludgier. This processed blood is to then be directed by injection or catheter into the newly formed, fine, fragile, deranged and disorganized micro-capillaries of the patients cancerous tumors or unwanted growths or into the arteries that feed them nutrients and oxygen. The processed blood blocks, clogs or clots these super-fine micro-vessels and their wasteline pathways thereby causing the cancerous tumors or unwanted growths to shrink and die. The processed, aged or modified blood can also be used in combination with a blood separating hemapheresic means which can separate out the nitric oxide and/or any other components which would make the blocking blood more fluid or less viscous and can also be used immediately without further aging. In addition, the hemapheresic means can also separate other blocking components of the blood such as artery plaque building agents which together with the nitric oxide depleted blood will more readily block the unwanted growths micro-capillaries. Some or all of the unused components of the hemapheresic separated blood can be returned to the donor, harvested for future use or discarded. The method can also be used periodically to control or treat the condition if no cure is possible. Furthermore, the method can be used on many other chronic conditions which require new blood vessel formation to cause and/or sustain them. Finally, these methods can also be used in combination or conjunction with other therapies, procedures and protocols that seek the same end result for possible synergistic advantages. | 04-08-2010 |
