Abstract: The present invention is a method of monitoring recovery site hydrocarbons (HC) using an unconventional method which permits quantifying the HC present in zones above the exploration and development zone. The method according to the invention is based on the adjustment of a model describing the gas concentration as a function of time, using in-situ geochemical analyzes of rare gases and, when appropriate, of injected gas used for fracturing, contained in fluid phases of subsoil samples. By use of rare gas analysis, the method according to the invention allows anticipation of hydrocarbon leakage above the exploration/development site.

Abstract: A method of selecting the positions of wells to be drilled for the development of a petroleum reservoir from a set of reservoir images. Well configurations are optimized by calculating a first quality criterion using a flow simulator applied to a limited number of reservoir images. Previously obtained configuration simulation results previously obtained are used for configurations physically close to the configuration to be assessed. A second reservoir development quality criterion is calculated for the optimized configurations using a flow simulator applied to each image of the reservoir. Finally, the well location corresponding to the optimized configuration having the best second quality criterion is selected.

Abstract: Method of and system for delivering consumer product related information to consumers over the Internet. The system and method involves creating a Consumer Product Information (CPIR) enabling object for each consumer service registered within a service-provider managed database management system. The HTML tag associated with each CPIR-enabling object is encapsulated within an executable file and then stored in the database management system. Each CPIR-enabling object is searchable and its HTML tag downloadable and then embedded within an HTML-encoded document. Upon encountering the HTML document, the underlying CPIR-enabling object is automatically executed on an object-oriented server, causing a service-directed search to be performed against the database management system, and the results thereof, from one or more Web-based product information servers, displayed in an independent GUI, without disturbing the consumer's point of presence on the WWW.

Abstract: Method of and system for delivering consumer product related information to consumers over the Internet. The system and method involves creating a UPN-encoded Consumer Product Information (CPIR) enabling Servlet for each consumer product registered within a manufacturer-managed UPN/URL database management system. The HTML tag associated with each CPIR-enabling Servlet is encapsulated within an executable file and then stored in the UPN/URL database management system. Each CPIR-enabling Servlet is searchable and its HTML tag downloadable by, for example, (1) retailers purchasing products from an electronic-commerce enabled product catalog, (2) advertisers desiring to link consumer product information to Web-based product advertisements, or (3) anyone having a legitimate purpose of disseminating such information within the stream of electronic commerce.

Abstract: A Web-based electronic commerce (EC) enabled shopping network configured to allow members of a consumer product management team and authorized parties to communicate directly with consumers shopping at EC-enabled WWW-sites along the World Wide Web (WWW), serviced by programmable Multi-Mode Virtual Kiosks (MMVKs) driven by server-side components and managed by product management team members and authorized parties. When generated by the first Internet-enabled information server, each MMVK has a graphical user interface (GUI) that is characterized by a plurality of independently programmable display modes. Upon the Web-browser of each consumer encountering an installed MMVK tag along an EC-enabled Website, the corresponding server-side driven MMVK is automatically generated by the first Internet-enabled information server and served to the Web browser for display and review by the consumer.

Abstract: An Internet-based product brand marketing communication network allowing members of a consumer product brand management team to communicate directly with consumers present at HTML-encoded pages of an electronic commerce (EC) enabled Web-site along fabric of the World Wide Web (WWW), using programmable Multi-Mode Virtual Kiosks (MMVKs) driven by server-side components and managed by product brand management team members and/or authorized parties. When a consumer's Web browser encounters an MMVK tag along the WWW, the MMVK is generated and automatically plays through its display modes, inviting and allowing the consumer to review and interact with advertising spots, promotional spots, and brand information resources displayed within the GUI of the MMVK, along the fabric of the WWW where the MMVK has been installed. Web-based subsystems are provided for programming these display modes.

Abstract: Internet-based Enterprise-Level Brand Management And Marketing Communication Network based on an innovative brand command, control and communication architecture (BC3), which gives brand owners complete command and control over the wide range of brand-building assets, messaging and promotions scattered throughout the Web, and how they are communicated to directly consumers at diverse Web touch points, with the efficiency and automation of supply-chain management solutions. The Network supports the deployment, installation and remote programming of brand-building server-side driven Multi-Mode Virtual Kiosks on the World Wide Web (WWW), and provide brand managers, their agents and online trading partners the power to build stronger online brands, drive sales and eliminate existing friction in the retail chain through a collaborative carrier-class, industrial-strength e-marketing communication network.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of a peptide having the amino acid sequence NH2-VCVLAHHFGKEFTPPVQAAYQKVVAGVANALAHKYH-COOH (SEQ ID NO:1) as well as variants, derivatives and fragments of the peptide for the treatment of viral diseases.

Abstract: A Web-based consumer product marketing communication network for managing and delivering consumer product marketing communications to consumers along E-Commerce (EC) enabled Web sites on the World Wide Web (WWW). The network employs one or more Web-based Multi-Mode Virtual Kiosks (MMVKs), each having a plurality of independently programmable display modes, for displaying one or more advertising spots, one or more promotional spots, and a set of consumer product information (CPI) resources through its Web-based graphical user interface (GUI). The network also includes a database server for storing and managing a CPI link structure for each MMVK deployed on the network. Each CPI link structure includes a consumer product identifier assigned to the corresponding consumer product, and a set of URLs specifying the location of a plurality of CPI resources located on the WWW. Members of product management team use the set of URLs to program the programmable display modes of each MMVK.

Abstract: A system for and method of delivering manufacturer-specified consumer product information to consumers within a marketplace. Manufacturers and/or their agents remotely and actively manage UPN/TM/PD/URL data links for registered consumer products by updating information elements stored in a relational database so as to compose a menu of URLs for each consumer product registered in the relational database. Using an Internet-enabled client computer, a consumer transmits a request for information resources about a UPN-labeled consumer product registered with the relational database, using one or more of the UPN, TM and/or PD that are symbolically linked to the UPN assigned to a registered UPN-labeled consumer product. In response to the request, the UPN, TM and/or PD contained in the request are automatically recovered and used to access the URLs stored in the relational database and the accessed URLs are then transmitted back to the Internet-enabled client computer.
