Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080288955Method and System for Managing Preferences in a Client Portlet Container - A system for managing preferences in a portlet container. In response to receiving remote preferences for a portlet, the remote preferences are merged with default preferences for the portlet to form a preference set for the portlet. In response to receiving user preferences for the portlet, the user preferences are merged with the preference set to form an effective preference set for the portlet. The portlet is manipulated according to the effective preference set to form a manipulated portlet. Then, the manipulated portlet is rendered.11-20-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090257787HSD WIRES USING FIBROUS CARBON NANOMATERIAL YARNS - A Hybrid Scavengeless Development electrophotographic printing system is provided wherein the electrode wires contain carbon nanotube yarn. The use of carbon nanotube yarn alleviates the problem of fundamental strobing image defects, because the electrodes made from the carbon nanotube yarn can be put at a higher tension to density set point, and thereby achieve fundamental resonance frequencies larger than that obtainable from steel. Additionally the yarn's strength is sufficient to withstand the typical forces it is subjected to in a Hybrid Scavengeless Development environment.10-15-2009

20100021031Method of Selecting and Visualizing Findings Within Medical Images - A method of processing regions of interest (ROI) obtained using computed-aided detection (CAD) along with reference image data to assist in evaluation of disease within an anatomical volume. After obtaining ROIs and reference image data, additional information related to each ROI is automatically computed. Subsets of ROIs are selected for use in visualization. ROIs are then presented to an observer in interactive, linked views, each view presenting optimally certain aspects of the ROIs and mapping ROI inclusion within the subsets to visual parameters.01-28-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110103891HORIZONTAL SCISSOR-TIP COMPACTION WHEEL CLEAT - A compactor cleat for reducing the amount of refuse build-up on the compactor wheel is disclosed. The compactor cleat includes a first tooth angled upward away from the compactor wheel in a first direction and a second tooth positioned adjacent the first tooth and being angled upward away from the compactor wheel in a second direction opposite from the first direction. The first tooth and the second tooth are formed such that an inner edge of the first tooth intersects an inner edge of the second tooth to form a scissor-shaped junction between the first tooth and the second tooth.05-05-2011
20110116866COMPACTION WHEEL CLEAT - A compactor wheel having a compactor cleat mountable on a compactor wheel is disclosed. The compactor cleat includes a base affixable to a compactor wheel and a body secured to the base and extending radially outward from the base, with the body comprising an arrangement of protrusions generally dividing the body into four protrusion quadrants. Each of the four protrusion quadrants is angled away from other respective protrusion quadrants such that forcing the protrusions of the cleat into a malleable material causes the malleable material to diversify along the four protrusion quadrants.05-19-2011
20110116875MODULAR AXLE GUARD FOR COMPACTOR WHEEL - A compactor wheel is disclosed that includes a hub mountable to an axle of a compaction machine and a rim mounted around an outer circumference of the hub, with the rim having a wrapper and inner and outer circumferential edges. The compactor wheel also includes a modular axle guard positioned near the inner circumferential edge and extending outward from the wrapper, the modular axle guard having a plurality of guard modules arranged about an outer circumference of the rim.

20090006503System Virtualization Instance Management for Terminal Sessions - Terminal sessions providing remote access to functionality may be isolated from each other, as well as from the server system space, by being placed in system virtualization instances. Applications associated with terminal sessions may be allocated to system virtualization instances. In particular, system virtualization instances may be pre-instantiated, and applications may be dynamically allocated to the system virtualization instances, for example, according to a virtualization instance policy. The system virtualization instances may provide, in particular, an ability for terminal session components and associated applications to create, read, update and delete resources in a global name space of a host server without conflict, collision or other interference with each other or other server components.01-01-2009
20090006537Virtual Desktop Integration with Terminal Services - An integration system is disclosed that provides a virtual desktop integration with terminal services. A client computer is connected to one the virtual desktops operating in a server. The client computer examines information contained in a remote desktop protocol (RDP) compliant packet supplied by the server. The client computer connects to one of the many virtual desktops based on information. Use of the information enables integration of the virtual desktop with the existing terminal session deployment model. Client devices can establish a session using a single network name and can be appropriately directed to either a virtual desktop or terminal session.01-01-2009
20090100448Remote Auto Provisioning and Publication of Applications - Techniques for auto provisioning and publication of applications are described. The auto provisioning process enables automatic installation of applications having their respective file packages pre-stored in the server. Subsequently, publication of these applications is conducted automatically. By employing such an automatic process, the latency involved in provisioning and publication of remote applications is reduced, thereby making the process more efficient.04-16-2009
20100070969Automatic Detection And Installation Of Client Peripheral Devices By A Server - A server-client system is configured to automatically detect and install peripheral devices, such as printers, scanners, etc. that are attached to a client.
