20100070377SCALABLE DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION MANAGER FOR MULTI-HOST TRANSACTIONS - Transactions such as sales and exchanges of resources are managed in a virtual environment. A transaction manager receives a request for a transaction which involves multiple entities in the virtual environment. The request identifies the entities, as well as resources, such as objects and virtual currency, to be exchanged among the entities in the transaction. The request is first validated. Next, the resources which are to be contributed by the entities are gathered. An object is gathered from a first entity by updating a database record to render the object inaccessible. A new database record associates the object with a second entity, and renders the object inaccessible. A reserve can be imposed on a virtual currency account. The resources are then delivered to the entities, e.g., by updating the new database record to render the object accessible to the second entity. If the gathering fails, an undo phase is entered.03-18-2010

20090262598Fluid Mixing Device and Method - A mixing device for consistently mixing a primary fluid and at least a secondary fluid includes a primary fluid inlet in fluid communication with a first mixing orifice, and a secondary fluid inlet in fluid communication with a second mixing orifice. A mixing area receives the primary fluid and the secondary fluid via the first and second mixing orifices, respectively. A size of and thus flow through the first and second mixing orifices is variable based on a pressure of the primary fluid and the secondary fluid through the respective mixing orifices.10-22-2009

20090172626METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR VISUAL IMPLEMENTATION OF LAYOUT STRUCTURES FOR AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT - The present approach is directed to an improved method, system, and computer program product for visually presenting layout options for generating an electronic design. The visual presentation could be employed to display a set of layout choices when correcting errors or rules violations identified in the design. Alternatively, the visual presentation could be employed to display layout choices during the initial design entry phase for the electronic design.07-02-2009
