| 20100049707 | System And Method For The Structured Display Of Items - A system and method for displaying items by receiving a query, identifying query feature values for similarity features associated with the query, identifying items each having item feature values for similarity features thereof, for each of the identified items and for each of the similarity features, determining a feature distance between the query feature value and the item feature value, and presenting the identified items in a two dimensional array of cells. The array defines reference vectors corresponding to the similarity features. The identified items are positioned within the array relative to the origin cell, for any of the cells, by determining difference function values. for the identified items each based on the feature distances of the item, the reference vectors and the coordinates of the cell, and placing one of the items in the cell based upon the determined difference function values. | 02-25-2010 |

| 20080307228 | WEDI: AN ENCRYPTION-BASED METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR THE IDENTIFICATION AND PROTECTION OF PRINTED DOCUMENTS OR THOSE BEING TRANSMITTED BY ELECTRONIC MEANS - WEDI it is both a method and a system that uses symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms which makes feasible the identification of printed documents or those being transmitted by electronic means, and allows to hold responsible any person who discloses the information they contain in an illegal way or without authorization. WEDI is the acronym for “Watermark Encryption Document Identification”. It is both a method and a system that makes feasible the identification of printed documents and the information they carry upon being distributed by electronic means through the generation and printing of a cryptographic key in a watermark format, which is generated by the use of symmetric and asymmetric encryption algorithms and Hashing's function based on various data related to documents, devices, and persons involved in the process. This makes possible the identification of the aforesaid documents concerning their origin, recipient, date and time of generation and dispatch, user's responsibility, and other information pertaining such documents through the analysis of just a portion of them that contains fragments of the cryptographic key in the form of a printed watermark, which is the ultimate goal of the invention now being presented. | 12-11-2008 |

| 20110311753 | BRAKE AND CLUTCH DISCS - Carbon fibre-reinforced ceramic brake and clutch discs are manufactured by siliconising incompletely densified carbon-carbon fibre preforms produced by only a single chemical vapour infiltration step and then subjecting the siliconsised densified preform to a carbon impregnation step, e.g. by chemical vapour or liquid infiltration. The method substantially reduces processing times and costs compared to conventional chemical vapour infiltration processes, whilst yielding highly effective end products with optimised structural and frictional properties, particularly in terms of stability at high temperatures. | 12-22-2011 |

| 20090077872 | System and Apparatus for Preventing Freezing of Crops - A system for preventing freezing of crops within a volume includes a plurality of RF radiators configured to radiate RF energy into the volume. A height, a spacing, an output power, a vertical beam angle, a vertical beam width, and a horizontal beam width of each one of the plurality of RF radiators is selected to result in an average RF power density taken about three dimensions within the volume sufficient to prevent freezing of a substantial portion of the crops, and also to result in a peak-to-peak variation of RF power density taken about two dimensions in a horizontal plane within the volume and at heights below a predetermined height to be less than a predetermined percentage of an average RF power density taken about the two dimensions. | 03-26-2009 |

| 20090270981 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PNEUMATICALLY DRIVING AN IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE - A driver is disclosed for powering a pneumatically operated implantable device, such as an artificial heart with a left and a right ventricle. The driver includes a pair of compressors that each has a first and a second compression chamber. In a first mode of operation, both the first and the second compressor power the left and right ventricle of the artificial heart. In the event of a malfunction in the second compressor, the left and right ventricles of the artificial heart may be powered by the first compressor. Similarly, if a malfunction occurs in the first compressor, the artificial heart may be fully powered by the second compressor. | 10-29-2009 |
