Anthony Duca, Carlsbad, CA US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090046099REAL-TIME DISPLAY SYSTEM - An apparatus and method for displaying photographic images in real-time is disclosed. Traditionally, ray tracing algorithms produce photographic images, but not in real-time. In one embodiment of the present inventions, shadows and lighting can be altered in real-time, and photographic images appear as an interactive photographic image.02-19-2009

20120128127PORTABLE RADIATION IMAGING SYSTEM - A portable radiation imaging system (05-24-2012
20120134474HANDSWITCH QUICK CONNECT EXPOSURE CONTROL - A radiation imaging system includes a radiation detector for detecting radiation emitted from a radiation generator; a quick-connect unit configured to activate the radiation generator to initiate radiation emission and to activate the radiation detector to initiate detection of the radiation; and a notification unit included within the quick-connect unit that is configured to notify an operator of a time when the radiation detector is ready to detect the radiation. The quick-connect unit is connectable to the radiation detector and the radiation generator without having to make hardware modifications therein. In an alternate embodiment, the quick-connect unit is a handswitch to be held by an operator, where the notification unit notifies the operator that the radiation detector is ready to detect the radiation, by emitting at least one of a visual signal, a tactile signal and an audible signal.05-31-2012

20110154238Apportioning A Counted Value To A Task Executed On A Multi-Core Processor - A technique includes providing data indicative of a counted value acquired by a hardware counter of a processing core during a time segment in which a plurality of tasks are active on the core and, in a processor-based machine, determining a likelihood that the counted value is attributable to a given task of the tasks during the time segment and attributing a portion of the counted value to the given task based at least in part on the determined likelihood.06-23-2011
20110154294Relational Modeling for Performance Analysis of Multi-Core Processors - A relational model may be used to encode primitives for each of a plurality of threads in a multi-core processor. The primitives may include tasks and parameters, such as buffers. The relationships may be linked to particular tasks. The tasks with the coding, which indicates the relationships, may then be used upon user selection to display a visualization of the functional relationships between tasks.06-23-2011
20110154310Performance Analysis Of Software Executing In Different Sessions - A technique includes providing first objects that are associated with an application session and in a processor-based system, identifying second objects in another application session corresponding to the first objects based at least in part on a comparison of the second objects to matching rules associated with the first objects.06-23-2011
20110154337Relational Modeling for Performance Analysis of Multi-Core Processors Using Virtual Tasks - A relational model may be used to encode primitives for each of a plurality of threads in a multi-core processor. The primitives may include tasks and parameters, such as buffers. Implicitly created tasks, like set render target, may be visualized by associating those implicitly created tasks with actual coded tasks.06-23-2011

William J. Duca, Boardman, OH US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090077889GASIFIER - A gasifier for producing synthesis gas from a widely varying feedstock of waste and natural fuels, the gasifier including an induction furnace, a molten bed and slag reaction chamber mounted on top of the induction furnace, an opening fluidly connecting the molten metal and slag with the interior of the induction furnace and the inside bottom of the reaction chamber, the reaction chamber further containing a froth and off-take reaction zones above the molten metal and slag, and a lid at the top of the reaction chamber for enclosing the reaction chamber and collecting the heat and fuel gas produced therein.03-26-2009
20090077891METHOD FOR PRODUCING FUEL GAS - A method for producing a synthesis gas from a widely varying feedstock of waste and natural fuels including providing a reaction chamber having a bottom coupled to an induction furnace, introducing a carbonaceous fuel into a molten metal contained within the reaction chamber, continuously or intermittently supplying heat and molten metal to the reaction chamber from the induction furnace and collecting a fuel gas generated within the reaction chamber.03-26-2009
