Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090276466SYSTEM AND METHOD OF DATA PROCESSING FOR A COMMUNICATIONS OPERATION - A data processing system comprises an interface configured to communicate with a data source, a memory, and a reference data module. The data processing system comprises a processor which is configured to communicate with the memory, the interface, and the reference module. The processor is further configured to request a first list from the data source. The first list comprises a record. The record being modified based on a comparison of a data characteristic to a first reference data. The processor is further configured to receive the first list from the data source for a communication operation and to compare the data characteristic of the first list to a second reference data. The processor is further configured to generate a second list based on comparing the data characteristic of the first list to the second reference data.11-05-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100015995System and method for automated location information in a unified communication system - A telecommunications system includes a cellular telephone equipped with a global positioning utility for receiving global positioning samples. The cellular telephone periodically transmits received samples to a location client application running on a computer that also includes a unified communication client suite. The location client application derives a location confidence factor from the samples. The confidence factor is provided to a presence and availability service. Incoming calls and/or notifications can be routed to a user based on the confidence factor.01-21-2010
20100115084POWER MANAGEMENT FOR A COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM - Described herein is a method and system for facilitating power management in a communications system. The communications system includes a server and one or more communications devices operably coupled to a network, each communications device being operable to enter a low power state in response to a “hibernate” command. The “hibernate” command may be provided by a power management unit in the server in response to, for example, a change in routing preference, location or availability status of the user.05-06-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100092283AIRFOIL SHAPE FOR A COMPRESSOR - An article of manufacture having a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of X, Y and Z set forth in TABLE 1. X and Y are distances in inches which, when connected by smooth continuing arcs, define airfoil profile sections at each distance Z in inches. The profile sections at the Z distances are joined smoothly with one another to form a complete airfoil shape.04-15-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100068045INLET GUIDE VANE - An inlet guide vane having a nominal profile substantially in accordance with Cartesian coordinate values of x, y, and z set forth in TABLE 1 reduces vibration of engine components at various operating conditions. A scaling factor can be applied to the values to make the airfoil larger or smaller. The TABLE 1 x and y values are distances in inches within a tolerance which, when connected by smooth curves, define airfoil profile sections at each distance z in inches, the profile sections being joined smoothly to form a complete airfoil shape. The tolerance in an embodiment is up to about 0.16 inches.03-18-2010
