Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100023828IP Multicast with IP Unicast/Multicast Error Correction - A method of delivering digital information includes joining a multicast group, and receiving a segment from a server directed to the multicast group. Further, the method further includes determining a transmission error has occurred resulting in an incomplete segment, and sending an error notification to the server requesting retransmission of at least a portion of the incomplete segment. Additionally, the method includes receiving a retransmission of the at least a portion of the incomplete segment. The at least a portion of the incomplete segment may be received through an IP unicast connection or as a multicast retransmission.01-28-2010

20120035561SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LOCATING FLUID LEAKS AT A DRAPE OF A REDUCED PRESSURE DELIVERY SYSTEM - A system and method for performing tissue therapy may include applying a reduced pressure to a tissue site of a patient. A fluid parameter associated with applying a reduced pressure to the tissue site may be sensed. An audible fluid leak location sound may be generated in response to sensing the fluid parameter. The audible fluid leak location sound may be altered in response to sensing that the fluid parameter changes. By altering the audible fluid leak location sound in response to sensing a change of the fluid parameter, a clinician may detect location of a fluid leak at the drape by applying force to the drape. The force applied to the drape may be a clinician pressing a finger onto an edge of the drape.02-09-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110029647METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SUGGESTING AN OPTIMAL COMMUNICATION MODE - A method for communicating information includes ranking, by a central processing server, one or more available communication modes according to a context of a recipient of a communication and one or more rules. The ranked available communication modes may be communicated to a sender of the communication. The context of the recipient corresponds to the availability of the recipient and/or the location of the recipient. The available communication modes correspond to capabilities associated with devices that are in proximity with the recipient. Whether devices are in proximity with the recipient is accomplished by locating the devices via a device location server. The communication modes may be ranked according to a cost and/or appropriateness of the available communication modes.02-03-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080223790Desalination Scale Inhibitors - A method and composition for processing natural water such as seawater, brackish, and estuarine water wherein the water is concentrated with or without heating comprising adding to the water (I) a water-soluble polymeric phosphonate and (II) a water-soluble polycarboxylate to control scale formation and deposition. Optionally a water-soluble poly[isopropenylphosphonic acid] can also be utilized as component (I) without the addition of component (II).09-18-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090253085NON-CORROSIVE TREATMENT TO ENHANCE PRESSURIZED AND NON-PRESSURIZED PULVERIZED COAL COMBUSTION - Methods and compositions for inhibiting corrosion of metal surfaces in a furnace system are disclosed. In one aspect of the invention, pulverized coal is burned as fuel in the presence of a copper ion catalyst/combustion aid. Corrosion is inhibited in these systems by the use of a blend of primary aminoalcohol such as 2-aminoethanol, tertiary aminoalcohol such as triethanol amine, and boric acid or water soluble salt form of the acid.10-08-2009

Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a method comprising releasing chlorine dioxide from a solid composition comprising chlorine dioxide complexed with a cyclodextrin.02-26-2009
20090297629Systems, Methods, and Compositions Involving Chlorine Dioxide and Zeolite - Certain exemplary embodiments can provide one or more systems, machines, devices, manufactures, compositions of matter, and/or methods for, activities that can comprise, creating a composition comprising chlorine dioxide adsorbed in a zeolite, and/or releasing at least a portion of the chlorine dioxide from the composition, the released chlorine dioxide potentially useful for disinfection, decolorization, mildew control, and/or odor control.12-03-2009
20110288049Compositions, Systems, and/or Methods Involving Chlorine Dioxide ("ClO2") - Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a composition of matter comprising a solid form of chlorine dioxide complexed with a cyclodextrin. The concentration of chlorine dioxide in said solid form is greater than approximately 5.8 percent by weight. Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a method comprising forming a solid complex comprising chlorine dioxide and cyclodextrin, wherein a concentration of chlorine dioxide in the solid complex is greater than 5.8 percent by weight.11-24-2011
20120024744Soil-related and/or Crop-related Applications for Chlorine Dioxide - Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a system, machine, device, manufacture, circuit, composition of matter, and/or user interface adapted for and/or resulting from, and/or a method and/or machine-readable medium comprising machine-implementable instructions for, activities that can comprise and/or relate to, introducing chlorine dioxide to soil and/or planting a crop in the soil.02-02-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110208783Integration of User Identifiers - User identifiers associated with a plurality of enterprises may be integrated. A request is received to link a plurality of user identifiers associated with a plurality of enterprises. A first user identifier associated with a first enterprise is received, and a second user identifier associated with a second enterprise is received. The first user identifier and a first enterprise identifier are stored in a first data structure of a memory. The second user identifier and a second enterprise identifier are stored in a second data structure of the memory. A first account identifier associated with the first user identifier is determined by a processor. A second account identifier associated with the second user identifier is determined by the processor. The first user identifier, the second user identifier, the first account identifier, and the second account identifier are stored in a virtual profile to link the first and second user identifiers and facilitate retrieval of information associated with the first and the second user identifiers from a selected one of the first enterprise and the second enterprise.08-25-2011
