20150378757 | OPTIMIZING SOFTWARE CODE - A method of optimizing software source code, where the source code is for execution as compiled bytecode using a just-in-time compiler. The source code is compiled to generate corresponding compiled bytecode. The bytecode is then executed using a just-in-time compiler. Run-time optimization actions performed by the just-in-time compiler during execution of the bytecode are determined, and analysed to determine corresponding optimization data for the source code. | 12-31-2015 |

20150026817 | Hiding Sensitive Data In Plain Text Environment - Method and system for hiding sensitive data in a plain text environment. The method may include recognizing a starting key in a plain text environment, wherein the starting key indicates to a working system that the text input subsequent to the starting key is to be hidden according to a specified hiding method; receiving subsequent plain text, the working system carrying out the hiding method on the plain text, wherein the input plain text is not displayed in the plain text environment; and recognizing an ending key, ending the hiding method and displaying subsequently input plain text in the plain text environment. The starting key and ending key may also be used to indicate to the working system that the data subsequent to the starting key is hidden according to the specified hiding method. The starting key and ending key are the same or different escape characters. | 01-22-2015 |

20100234253 | Method for reducing the viscosity of viscous fluids - A viscous fluid, such as heavy crude oil which is too viscous to enable it to be pumped from a flowing phase of a reservoir into and along a pipeline for delivery to a refinery or other storage facility, may be contacted with a formulation to reduce its viscosity. The formulation comprises a polymeric material AA which includes —O— moieties pendent from a polymeric backbone thereof and said material is optionally cross-linked. In one embodiment, the formulation may comprise polyvinyl alcohol. In an alternative embodiment, the formulation may comprise a cross-linked polymeric material, such as cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol.

20080314415 | Cleaning Contaminated Materials - Oil contaminated drill cuttings are contacted with an oil soluble surfactant with agitation which causes the hydrophobic moiety of the surfactant to interact with the oil. Next, an aqueous polymer formulation comprising a polymer having polar and/or ionic functionality is added and mixed. Then, an excess volume of water is added with gentle agitation and the mixture is allowed to settle, whereupon the cuttings sediment to the bottom of the receptacle in which the process is undertaken and the supernatant contains a colloidal suspension of particles which comprise oil, surfactant and polymer. The drill cuttings may then be separated from the supernatant by filtration. The supernatant may be treated with a flocculating agent to cause the colloidal particles to sediment. They too may then be separated. | 12-25-2008 |
