20090100536Transgenic plants with enhanced agronomic traits - This invention provides transgenic plant cells with recombinant DNA for expression of proteins that are useful for imparting enhanced agronomic trait(s) to transgenic crop plants. This invention also provides transgenic plants and progeny seed comprising the transgenic plant cells where the plants are selected for having an enhanced trait selected from the group of traits consisting of enhanced water use efficiency, enhanced cold tolerance, increased yield, enhanced nitrogen use efficiency, enhanced seed protein and enhanced seed oil. Also disclosed are methods for manufacturing transgenic seed and plants with enhanced traits.04-16-2009

20080318308Aerating organic matter container - The present invention consists of a container of arbitrary size, shape, and density configured with ventilating holes of arbitrary size, shape, and distribution to promote air circulation and drainage. In some variations of the present invention a hinged rotatable cover or a supported removable cover prevents the entry of rain into the container. In a closed container organic material will generate dangerous heat build-up that can lead to spontaneous combustion and will present a malingering stench problem as the material decomposes. The present invention alleviates both problems by promoting and facilitating the circulation of air and the drainage of moisture while the organic material is being staged for collection and also provides additional benefits thereby inhibiting the build up of dangerous heat and objectionable fumes and reducing the possibility of spontaneous combustion. The ventilating and drainage holes significantly reduce container weight without significantly reducing strength. Furthermore, the ventilating holes and the drainage holes of the container of the present invention enable and promote evaporation and drying of the organic payload providing additional weight reduction. These additional benefits of the present invention ease the burden of lifting and transporting the waste for both the property owner and collector.12-25-2008
20090289828Wireless transferable control system - It is desirable for operators of remote control systems to share the experience of controlling remote devices or appliances with others. To accomplish this, a system has evolved whereby a Slave transmitter is cable connected to a Master transmitter and a Master/Slave Switch is added to the Master transmitter enabling control to be transferred back and forth between the transmitters. The present invention replaces the hard-wired connection with a wireless facility consisting of a discrete or segmented programmable Slave Receiver and Adaptive Director Firmware Module that provides the desired functionality wirelessly and also provides significant case-of-use and compatibility features currently unavailable. By replacing the hard-wired connection with a wireless connection, a receiver that can accept and demodulate the wireless transmission, and adaptive programmable firmware (hardware and software) the present invention provides the desired transferability of control readily and conveniently without the limitations or constraints of the current art.11-26-2009

20080250389SYSTEMS, METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR DEVELOPING AND MAINTAINING EVOLVING SYSTEMS WITH SOFTWARE PRODUCT LINES - Systems, methods and apparatus are provided through which an evolutionary system is managed and viewed as a software product line. In some embodiments, the core architecture is a relatively unchanging part of the system, and each version of the system is viewed as a product from the product line. Each software product is generated from the core architecture with some agent-based additions. The result may be a multi-agent system software product line.10-09-2008
20090122993INFORMATION CAPTURING METHOD - A method for capturing information related to an audio signal includes broadcasting an acoustic signal capable of human perception, broadcasting an RF signal containing information related to content of the acoustic signal, receiving the acoustic signal, receiving the RF signal with a portable device, and using the portable device, storing the information related to the content of the acoustic signal. A similar method is used to capture information related to a visual display.05-14-2009
20100106348SWARM Autonomic Agents With Self-Destruct Capability - Systems, methods and apparatus are provided through which in some embodiments an autonomic entity manages a system by generating one or more stay alive signals based on the functioning status and operating state of the system. In some embodiments, an evolvable synthetic neural system is operably coupled to one or more evolvable synthetic neural systems in a hierarchy. The evolvable neural interface receives and generates heartbeat monitor signals and pulse monitor signals that are used to generate a stay alive signal that is used to manage the operations of the synthetic neural system. In another embodiment an asynchronous Alice signal (Autonomic license) requiring valid credentials of an anonymous autonomous agent is initiated. An unsatisfactory Alice exchange may lead to self-destruction of the anonymous autonomous agent for self-protection.04-29-2010
20100146635METHOD OF IMPROVING SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND SURVIVABILITY THROUGH SELF-SACRIFICE - A biologically-inspired system and method is provided for self-adapting behavior of swarm-based exploration missions, whereby individual components, for example, spacecraft, in the system can sacrifice themselves for the greater good of the entire system. The swarm-based system can exhibit emergent self-adapting behavior. Each component can be configured to exhibit self-sacrifice behavior based on Autonomic System Specification Language (ASSL).06-10-2010
20120022722SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUS FOR OTOACOUSTIC PROTECTION OF AUTONOMIC SYSTEMS - Systems, methods and apparatus are provided through which in some embodiments an autonomic unit transmits an otoacoustic signal to counteract a potentially harmful incoming signal.01-26-2012
