20110029101Methods for Data Acquisition Systems in Real Time Applications - A system may include a processing unit executing program instructions (SW), a data acquisition (DAQ) hardware device for acquiring sample data and/or generating control signals, and host memory configured to store data samples and various data associated with the DAQ and processor operations. The DAQ device may push HW status information to host memory upon being triggered by predetermined events taking place in the DAQ device, e.g. timing events or interrupts, to avoid or reduce SW reads to the DAQ device. The DAQ device may update dedicated buffers in host memory with status data on any of these events. The status information pushed to memory may be read in a manner that allows detection of race conditions. Interrupts generated by the DAQ device may be similarly handled. Upon generating an interrupt, the DAQ device may gather information required to handle the interrupt, and push the information into system memory, along with information identifying the interrupt. SW may read system memory for this information, and handle the interrupts as required without having to query the DAQ device.02-03-2011

20100208242METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING THE THERMAL EXPANSION OF A MATERIAL - A focus error signal resulting from the photothermically-induced expansion is measured in a sample of material under analysis. A laser is disposed as a periodically modulated heating source which is directed to the sample and a device for focus error measuring which is directed to de surface being heated. A device measuring focus error generates a signal representative of the displacement of the surface of material in perpendicular direction due to the expansion produced by the periodic heating, which is filtered, either analogically or digitally, to discriminate the displacement component at the frequency in which it was modulated or at any other related frequency, such any harmonic or a sum with any other modulation. The focus error signal, appropriately calibrated, gives a precise and sensitive measure of the magnitude the expansion. Said magnitude and its dependence with the modulation frequency allows the determination of physical properties such as the thermal expansion or thermal diffusivity coefficient, the thickness of a coating film or the absorption coefficient of the light from the heating beam. By varying the wave length of the directed radiation it is possible to determine the absorption spectrum of the sample even for very small sized particles in which the fraction of absorbed energy is very little.08-19-2010

20080265041Bar code blocking system - A system and apparatus for ensuring a proper bar code scan on a multi-package of containers includes overcoating bar codes on each respective container with a dye and applying a unitizing carrier to the containers. The containers may also be oriented so that a bar code on each container is not readable by a bar code scanner.10-30-2008

20100167715Method and Apparatus for Social Networking in a Communication Network - In a communication network, a method and apparatus for social networking in a communication network includes detecting a characteristic motion of a communication device and identifying at least one contact information from a contact list of the communication device in response to detecting the characteristic motion of the communication device. The method further includes initiating a communication session with the identified contact information.07-01-2010
