| 20100252151 | TECHNIQUES FOR CONTROLLING PRECIPITATE PHASE DOMAIN SIZE IN AN ALLOY - A heat treatment technique may include heating an alloy component to a temperature above a transition temperature of the alloy or heating an alloy component to a temperature below the transition temperature of the alloy. The heat treatment technique further may include cooling a first portion of the alloy component at a first cooling rate, and cooling a second portion of the alloy component at a second cooling rate different than the first rate. The first cooling rate may result in formation of a plurality of first precipitate phase domains comprising a first average size in the first portion, and the second cooling rate may result in formation of a plurality of second precipitate phase domains comprising a second average size in the second portion. The average size of the first precipitate phase domains may be different than the average size of the second precipitate phase domains. | 10-07-2010 |

| 20090071580 | Method of heat treating a superalloy component and an alloy component - A method of heat treating a superalloy component comprises solution heat treating the component at a temperature below the gamma prime solvus temperature to produce a fine grain structure in the component. Insulation is placed over a first area of the component to form an insulated assembly. The insulated assembly is placed in a furnace at a temperature below the solvus temperature and maintained at that temperature for a predetermined time to achieve a uniform temperature in the component. The temperature is increased at a predetermined rate to a temperature above the solvus temperature to maintain a fine grain structure in a first region, to produce a coarse grain structure in a second region and to produce a transitional structure in a third region between the first and second regions of the component. The insulated assembly is removed from the furnace when the second region of the component has been above the solvus temperature for a predetermined time and/or the first region of the component has reached a predetermined temperature. | 03-19-2009 |

| 20100109277 | Adjustable Monotube Shock Absorber - A monotube shock absorber that can be adjusted remotely or otherwise, and a corresponding system are provided. The monotube shock absorber includes a body tube that houses a working piston therein and a bypass tube that is attached to but external with respect to the body tube. A control valve influences flow volume and rate of oil that passes through the bypass tube in a manner that correspondingly influences damping and/or other characteristics of the monotube shock absorber. The monotube shock absorber can include a floating piston separating a volume of gas from a volume of oil. The volumes of gas and oil may be entirely housed in the body tube or may be at least partially housed in an external reservoir that can include an anti-cavitation valve. | 05-06-2010 |

| 20080243536 | PROVIDING WEBSITE HOSTING OVERAGE PROTECTION BY STORAGE ON AN INDEPENDENT DATA SERVER - Systems and methods of the present inventions allow for providing website hosting overage protection. In an exemplary method, a website's content may be stored on a data server communicatively coupled to a network. Traffic seeking the website may be directed to a first server having access to the website's content on the data server via the network. A website usage parameter may then be monitored. If the website usage parameter exceeds a first predetermined value, traffic to the website then may be redirected to the overflow server, which also may have access to the website's content on the data server via the network. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20080243634 | PROVIDING WEBSITE HOSTING OVERAGE PROTECTION BY TRANSFERENCE TO AN OVERFLOW SERVER - Systems and methods of the present inventions allow for providing website hosting overage protection. An exemplary method may comprise the steps of hosting a website on a first server, monitoring a website usage parameter, transferring the website to an overflow server when the website usage parameter exceeds a first predetermined value, and redirecting a plurality of traffic to the overflow server. The website transfer may be accomplished by generating a copy of the website and installing the copy on the overflow server. The website may be retained on the first server. When the website usage parameter falls below a second predetermined value, traffic may be redirected back to the first server. | 10-02-2008 |

| 20100230540 | AIRCRAFT SEAT WITH UPRIGHT SEAT BACK POSITION INDICATOR - An aircraft passenger seat that includes a frame with a seat bottom mounted for translating fore and aft movement, and a seat back linked to the seat bottom and mounted for generally vertical movement between a lowered and upright position. A stationary seat back shell assembly is provided within which the seat back is mounted for movement. A seat back position indicator is carried by the shell proximate a top end thereof and cooperates with the seat back. The seat back position indicator has a first condition indicating that the seat back is in the lowered position within the shell and a second condition indicating that the seat back is in the upright position within the shell. | 09-16-2010 |

| 20080310487 | Single-chip wireless tranceiver - Embodiments of a wireless transceiver are provided. Embodiments can be used in multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) wireless transceivers. In an embodiment, radio control signal bundles are provided as direct parallel interconnects between digital signal processing modules and the radio module of the wireless transceiver to enable a precise low-latency control of radio functions. In another embodiment, a separate physical line is provided to control each radio setting of the radio module, thereby enabling simultaneous real-time control of any number of radio settings. In a further embodiment, the various digital and analog components of the wireless transceiver are integrated within a single chip of the same process technology. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20090117858 | RECEIVE CONFIGURATION ADAPTATION FOR WIRELESS TRANSCEIVERS - An integrated circuit radio transceiver and method therefor is operable to determine an antenna configuration for receive operations. More specifically, the system is operable to determine a receive antenna configuration in a network that includes a number of spatial streams, antenna configuration information, code rate, quadrature modulation type, and transmission protocol modulation scheme, etc. Generally, a selected antenna configuration for transmissions to a remote transceiver is used as an initial antenna configuration for receive operations. | 05-07-2009 |

| 20100034106 | THROUGHPUT-BASED RATE ADAPTATION FOR WIRELESS TRANSMISSIONS - A system and method of throughput-based transmission rate adaptation for wireless transmissions is provided. An adapted transmission rate is determined based on transmission feedback from previous wireless frame transmissions. The adapted transmission rate is determined by comparing nominal throughputs derived from packet success rate (PSR) estimates at the current rate and other rates, such that the adapted transmission rate chosen is one that maximizes the nominal throughput. The PSR estimates can include those associated with the current rate, a fallback rate, and other rates. The PSR estimates are updated after each frame transmission. The PSR estimates can be saved and used for calculating future estimates, and they can also be time-stamped so as not to use them if they are older than a predetermined age. | 02-11-2010 |
