20130268542 | Searching and Storing Data in a Database - Nodes in a tree data structure are associated with respective node keys. At least some of the nodes are associated with at least one respective node rank. The structure is searched to attempt to identify a preferred prefix-matching node on the basis of attempting to find a prefix-matching node that has a prefix match with a search key and which has a preferred node rank relative to a node rank associated with a node which may have a longer prefix match. If the prefix-matching node is identified, a dependent node rank identifier associated with the prefix-matching node is used to determine that the prefix-matching node has the preferred node rank. The dependent node rank identifier indicates at least a node rank of a node which may have a longer prefix match than the prefix-matching node. The prefix-matching node is selected, if identified, as a preferred prefix-matching node. | 10-10-2013 |

20090123635 | Structured Lipid Compositions - Lipid compositions are provided exhibiting the functionality of a typical shortening or filler fat, but are achieved with reduced and essentially zero trans-unsaturated fatty acids and that deliver reduced caloric content. By one approach, the functional lipid compositions include a blend of a matrix building ingredient, which is preferably a structured glycerol ester, and an edible liquid oil diluent in ratios such that the lipid composition exhibits the functionality of the traditional shortening or filler fat. | 05-14-2009 |

20100179678 | PV Wind Performance Enhancing Methods - Pressure equalization between upper and lower surfaces of PV modules of an array of PV modules can be enhanced in several ways. Air gaps opening into the air volume, defined between the PV modules and the support surface, should be provided between adjacent PV modules and along the periphery of the array. The ratio of this air volume to the total area of the air gaps should be minimized. Peripheral wind deflectors should be used to minimize aerodynamic drag forces on the PV modules. The time to equalize pressure between the upper and lower surfaces of the PV modules should be maintained below, for example, 10-20 milliseconds. The displacement created by wind gusts should be limited to, for example, 2-5 millimeters or less. For inclined PV modules, rear air deflectors are advised for each PV module and side air deflectors are advised for the periphery of the array. | 07-15-2010 |

20110120524 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SOLAR POWER GENERATION - A photovoltaic device comprising an array of elongate reflector elements mounted substantially parallel to one another and transversely spaced in series, at least one of the reflector elements having an elongate concave reflective surface to reflect incident solar radiation towards a forward adjacent reflector element in the array. The at least one reflector element includes a photovoltaic assembly which is removably and replaceably mounted on the reflector element. The photovoltaic assembly includes a photovoltaic receptor to receive reflected solar radiation from a rearward adjacent reflector element. The photovoltaic assembly also includes a heat sink in heat transfer relationship with the photovoltaic receptor, thermally isolating the photovoltaic receptor, at least partially, from the reflector element. | 05-26-2011 |
