Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080316462Curved sensor array apparatus and methods - Curved sensor array configurations and methods of processing the data gathered by the sensors. A 2 dimensional embodiment comprises singular ring of sensors that can monitor sources in a 2 dimensional plane. A sensor directly facing a target produces a maximum response. As the angle of a sensor relative to the target increases, the response decreases. Fitting the sensor response amplitudes to a 2D Gaussian curve and calculating the peak of the curve allows a very accurate calculation of the angular direction of the target. A 3D embodiment comprises sensors distributed over the surface of a sphere in order to monitor multiple targets in any spatial orientation. Again, the sensor amplitude data is fitted to a 3D curve or surface such as a Gaussian surface. The present invention can resolve more than one target using deconvoluting techniques.12-25-2008

20110318761METHODS AND KITS FOR PREDICTING A RESPONSE TO AN ERYTHROPOIETIC AGENT - Methods for predicting a response to an erythropoietic agent in a subject include providing a biological sample from the subject, and determining an amount in the sample of at least one peptide selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOS: 1-17. If there is a measurable difference in the amount of the at least one peptide in the sample, when compared to a control level of the same peptide, the subject is then predicted to have a good response or a poor response to the erythropoietic agent. Kits for predicting a response to an erythropoietic agent are further provided and include one or more antibodies, or fragments thereof, that specifically recognize a peptide of SEQ ID NOS: 1-17.12-29-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110191615MEMORY CLOCK SLOWDOWN - Circuits, methods, and apparatus for slowing clock circuits on a graphics processor integrated circuit in order to reduce power dissipation. An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a graphics processor having two memory clocks, specifically, a switched memory clock and an unswitched memory clock. The switched memory clock frequency is reduced under specific conditions, while the unswitched memory clock frequency remains fixed. In a specific embodiment, the switched memory clock frequency is reduced when related graphics, display, scaler, and frame buffer circuits are not requesting data, or are such data requests can be delayed. Further refinements to the present invention provide circuits, methods, and apparatus for ensuring that the switched and unswitched memory clock signals remain in-phase and aligned with each other.08-04-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120084857DEVICE SECURITY SYSTEM - A computer-implemented method may include identifying a security event condition associated with a device. One or more security rules may be identified for execution based on the device and the identified security event condition, wherein the one or more security rules define security related actions to be performed upon occurrence of the security event condition. The security related actions may be initiated by at least one processor on the device to secure the device from unauthorized use.04-05-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120109579METHOD OF TESTING AND PROVING FUEL EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTS - A method of testing and proving fuel efficiency improvements includes installing a telematic device in each of a first plurality of vehicles and a second plurality of vehicles. The telematic devices collect baseline fuel consumption data during a first time period and collect test fuel consumption data during a second time period. Between the first and second time periods, at least one operating parameter of the second plurality of vehicles is modified such that the baseline fuel consumption data and the test fuel consumption data can be analyzed to determine any fuel efficiency improvements caused by the modified operating parameter. To ensure reliable and statistically-significant results, each plurality of vehicles may include 15 vehicles and each time period may include 60 days.05-03-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090119772SECURE FILE ACCESS - In one method, the embodiments herein providing secure file access when a user opens an application and uses the application to make a request to open a data file on a secure file system. The method checks a trusted application list, by kernel extension, to determine if the application comprises a trusted application. The method also checks the user's permission to access the secure file system. The embodiments herein pass an “extended” permission to any applications that are trusted applications. Therefore, the methods herein control access to the secure file system based not only on the user's permission, but also on the “extended” permission, such that the kernel extension allows access to files. With embodiments herein, the trusted application performs the extended permission management.05-07-2009

20100332386ON-LINE PAYMENTS FACILITY - A computer system implements a counterparty management module and a payment module for processing employee direct payroll deposits. The counterparty management module permits an employer to add employee bank accounts to a funds transfer system provided by a banking institution. The employee bank accounts are respectively associated with different employees of the employer. The employer has a bank account at the banking institution. The counterparty management module is accessible to the employer by way of an online banking area of a website of the banking institution. The counterparty management module also permits the employer to specify a payroll-related pay group that includes the employee bank accounts and to specify characteristics of the transferring of funds to the pay group as a whole. The payment module generates payment instructions for transferring funds from the employer bank account to the employee bank accounts.12-30-2010
