20090132479BOOK OF BUSINESS MECHANISM - A “Book of Business” (or Book) is a set of business domain data of one or more book types. This set of data is identified by a “driving condition” or quality. A driving condition typically arises from a business practice, and may be further qualified by local conditions. Accordingly, data may be organized based on local activities or conditions that may not be explicitly stored in a database. In one embodiment, a method for querying the database includes identifying data in a database. The data is organized into one or more segments. A book of business associated with a segment in the one or more segments is then generated. The book of business includes a set of references to the data organized into the segment. A query plan may be determined based on the book of business. A set of results may then be generated based on the query plan.05-21-2009

20080202703Daylighting system comprising light re-direction elements in a Venetian blind - A daylighting system comprising one or more light redirecting elements and a horizontal slat Venetian blind. The light redirecting elements are inserted between the slats of the Venetian blind and are supported between the slats and the outer strings of the Venetian blind. Each light redirecting element is a thin strip of reflective material formed into an angle section. The upper arm of the angle section reflects sunlight upwards through the Venetian blind and deeply into the interior of the building. The side arm of the angle section reflects sunlight back out of the window. The reflecting surface of an upper arm of a light redirecting element is treated to reflect light diffusely into a narrow angular range. The reflecting surface of a side arm of a light redirecting element is treated to reflect light diffusely into a wide angular range. The daylighting system is installed in the window of a building to redirect sunlight on to the ceiling of the building to improve natural illumination in the building.08-28-2008

20100003659COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED LEARNING METHOD AND APPARATUS - A computer-implemented adaptive learning method is disclosed. The method is intended for performance within the context of a task being carried out by a user. At least one of a sequence of elements presented to the user as part of the task is designated as a learning item. A learning object is selected in dependence upon the designated learning item, information relating to previous performance of the learning method in relation to the user, and a predetermined scheme devised to manage an overall learning process for the user. Presentation of the selected learning object to the user is intended to advance the user's knowledge of the designated learning item in some way. Once the learning object has been presented to the user, the information is updated in dependence upon the presented learning object and/or how the user interacts with or responds to the presented learning object.01-07-2010
20100273138APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC GENERATION OF PERSONALIZED LEARNING AND DIAGNOSTIC EXERCISES - A computer-implemented method for automatically generating learning exercises, including determining a target learning item in response to an event, obtaining a knowledge level of a learner in relation to the target learning item based on a model of the learner as produced by an automated learner model, associating a level of difficulty with the obtained knowledge level of the learner, retrieving a learning exercise pattern from an exercise pattern database, automatically generating a learning exercise relating to the retrieved learning exercise pattern based on the model of the learner and the associated level of difficulty; and presenting the learning exercise to the learner via an exercise interface.10-28-2010

20080257403PHOTOVOLTAIC WINDOW PANEL WITH HIGH VIEWING TRANSPARENCY - The invention is a photovoltaic window panel comprising a parallel array of strips of photovoltaic cells incorporated within the body of a transparent panel such that the active area or surface plane of a photovoltaic cell is nearly perpendicular to the plane of the transparent panel. The narrow strips of photovoltaic cells are inserted into slots formed in the transparent panel with the strips encapsulated within the slots with a clear potting material. The slotted panel containing the strips of photovoltaic cells is protected by lamination with a clear protective cover. Alternatively the strips of photovoltaic cells may be molded into a panel of transparent material. The electrical outputs of each strip of photovoltaic cells emerge from the two side edges of the transparent panel so that the strips of photovoltaic cells may be connected in parallel or in series to contacts external to the photovoltaic window panel.10-23-2008
