20080206463 | CONTINUOUS GROWTH OF SINGLE-WALL CARBON NANOTUBES USING CHEMICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION - The invention relates to a chemical vapor deposition process for the continuous growth of a carbon single-wall nanotube where a carbon-containing gas composition is contacted with a porous membrane and decomposed in the presence of a catalyst to grow single-wall carbon nanotube material. A pressure differential exists across the porous membrane such that the pressure on one side of the membrane is less than that on the other side of the membrane. The single-wall carbon nanotube growth may occur predominately on the low-pressure side of the membrane or, in a different embodiment of the invention, may occur predominately in between the catalyst and the membrane. The invention also relates to an apparatus used with the carbon vapor deposition process. | 08-28-2008 |

20090145612 | High Velocity String for Well Pump and Method for Producing Well Fluid - A method of producing a well fluid includes securing a motor to a string of outer tubing and lowering the outer tubing and motor into the well. A rotary pump is secured to a string of inner tubing and lowered into the outer tubing. The pump stabs into cooperative engagement with the motor. Supplying power to the motor rotates the pump, causing well fluid to flow into the outer tubing to an intake of the pump, which pumps the well fluid through the inner tubing to an upper end of the well. Removing the well fluid allows gas to flow up an annulus surrounding the outer tubing to the upper end of the well. | 06-11-2009 |

20080249972 | SOFTWARE FRAMEWORK THAT FACILITATES DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF DATABASE APPLICATIONS - An intelligent framework is provided that is disposed between a high-level language environment and a database system environment. According to one embodiment, a software framework infers the need for one or more integrity constraints. The software framework programmatically receives (a) information regarding definitions of a multiple data structures associated with multiple objects participating in a software application, and (b) information regarding relationships among the data structures, where each object represents an instance of a data structure of the multiple data structures. Then, the software framework infers the need for one or more integrity constraints based upon the information regarding definitions of the data structures and the information regarding relationships among the data structures. Finally, the software framework instructs a storage system to apply the one or more integrity constraint. | 10-09-2008 |

According to one embodiment, a method is provided for instantiating a DataMap. A data store interface reads a set of definitions and instructions from a datastore that describe the structure of the DataMap. The data store interface interprets the set of definitions and instructions to instantiate the DataMap. According to another embodiment, a method is provided for indexing into a DataMap. A data store interface receives an expression. The data store interface parses the expression to identify a set of keys suitable for indexing into the DataMap and corresponding DataPoints. | 10-06-2011 |
20140195601 | DATA STORE INTERFACE THAT FACILITATES DISTRIBUTION OF APPLICATION FUNCTIONALITY ACROSS A MULTI-TIER CLIENT-SERVER ARCHITECTURE - Methods and systems for facilitating distribution of application functionality across a multi-tier client-server architecture are provided. According to one embodiment, multiple data points from a database associated with a server computer system are cached into a hierarchical data map representing a random access memory-resident data structure. Each of the data points includes a field name and a calculated value. A request, containing input values that are to be stored within the hierarchical data map, is received by the server computer system from a client computer system. Responsive to the request: (i) the input values are transferred to target data points of the multiple data points; (ii) the calculated value of at least one of the data points is updated based on the target data points and a formula corresponding to the calculated value; and (iii) changed contents within the hierarchical data map are persisted to the database. | 07-10-2014 |

20100286816 | PNEUMATIC TUBE SYSTEM RECOVERY - A system and method provides for the recovery of carriers stranded within a pneumatic carrier system. Initially, unresolved transaction records generated during the transit of carrier within the system are identified for carrier recovery purposes. System handling information is identified from the transaction record. Based on this information, the system determines a putative location of each a carrier associated with a transaction record. The system operates a segment of the pneumatic system including the putative carrier location to confirm the presence or absence of a stranded carrier. If a carrier is identified within that segment of the system, the carrier is deemed recovered. The carrier is then delivered to the destination location in the transaction record. | 11-11-2010 |

20090234937 | OPTIMIZATION IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A communication system comprises a configuration manager which includes an optimizer for performing a Radio Access Network (RAN) optimization process. An optimization characteristic for the RAN optimization process and operational data for a plurality of remote terminals is determined, and based on this information a grouping processor determines a plurality of groups of remote terminals. A policy processor determines an operational policy for each of the groups in response to the optimization characteristic and the operational data and a policy distributor transmits the operational policy of each group to at least the remote terminals in the group. Each remote terminal then continues to operate in accordance with the operational policy of the group to which the remote terminal belongs. The invention may typically allow improved performance and specifically may allow operation to be adapted to the specific optimization processes being performed. The invention is suitable for a heterogeneous communication system. | 09-17-2009 |
