| 20100131575 | Fort.22 File Creation Tool - A method for creating a fort.22 input file is provided that comprises the steps of receiving a plurality of user parameters, the plurality of user parameters comprising one or more meteorological data sources, a defined date range, and a data processing request. Then, the one or more meteorological data sources are read for the defined date range. A properly formatted fort.22 file is prepared based on the reader data. Next, it is determined whether a data processing request is present, and if a data processing request is present, an extension/ramping processing program is performed. Finally, the fort.22 file is outputted to a user. | 05-27-2010 |
| 20100281463 | XML based scripting framework, and methods of providing automated interactions with remote systems - A method of creating an XML based framework to perform automated forecasting includes sending a file from a local host computer to a remote computer, receiving a file at the local host computer from the remote computer, installing the received file on the local host computer, and executing commands on the local host computer and the remote computer. Executing a command on the remote computer includes reading a run file and a host definition file. A framework for interacting between the local host computer and the remote computer is determined based on types of XML tags, the XML tags including at least one of a start of a tag, end of a tag, and text between the start of a tag and the end of a tag. Computer program products for creating an XML based framework to perform automated forecasting are also described. | 11-04-2010 |

| 20080213466 | HIGHLY CONDUCTING TRANSPARENT THIN POLYMERS FILMS FORMED FROM DOUBLE AND MULTIPLE LAYERS OF POLY(3,4, ETHYLENEDIOXYTHIOPHENE) AND ITS DERIVATIVES - A polymer film comprising at least two layers, wherein each layer comprises a compound comprising the formula: | 09-04-2008 |
| 20090130422 | MESOPOROUS MONOLITHS CONTAINING CONDUCTING POLYMERS - The present invention relates to a mesoporous monolith containing a conducting polymer such as poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) and methods for making the monolith. The mesoporous monolith is electroactive, at least semi-transparent and has one or more of a large internal pore surface area, pore size and pore volume. It can be used for various applications in photovoltaics, sensing electrochromics, separations, reversible ion exchange and control of protein activity. The method employs hydrothermal treatment and/or substantially complete drying to obtain the desirable properties of the monolith. Conducting polymer can be covalently bound to the internal pore surfaces and polymerized in situ to partially or completely fill the pores producing increased mechanical strength and a high conductivity per unit area. | 05-21-2009 |
