Patent number: 9202444Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for generating address information to translate the order in which memory locations are accessed in a video buffer, to maintain a desired orientation in a rotated display. A video buffer is filled with display data to drive a CRT, LCD, or other display screen, starting with the upper-left corner. When the user rotates the display screen, the display screen continues to scan from the same starting corner, resulting in a misaligned orientation. In embodiments, a correct orientation can be automatically generated by determining a scan direction for the rotated display. The physical location of the new logical starting pixel is determined, and the rows and columns of the display image are rendered in a revised logical order which compensates for the amount and direction of rotation.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2007Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: Red Hat, Inc.Inventor: Adam Jackson

Patent number: 8857700Abstract: A method for forming a field joints between sections of coated or insulated pipe which are to be welded together and incorporated into an undersea pipeline for carrying single or multi-phase fluids such as oil, gas and water. The method includes the application of a liquid epoxy layer which overlaps a lip of the factory-applied FBE coating protruding beyond a chamfered end of the factory-applied insulation layer, and which may be applied over the entire weld joint area. The liquid epoxy layer is partially cured by application of heat, and a layer of powdered adhesive is applied onto the partially cured liquid epoxy layer. The adhesive is subsequently sintered and activated by application of heat to its outer surface. The outer surfaces of the adhesive layer and the chamfers are then preheated and the thermal joint insulation is injection molded over the entire joint area.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2010Date of Patent: October 14, 2014Assignee: ShawCor Ltd.Inventors: Adam Jackson, Geir Melvold Østby, Peter Jackson

Patent number: 7949728Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for processing data are described herein. The system maintains first databases of patents, and second databases of non-patent information of interest to a corporate entity. The system also maintains one or more groups. Each of the groups comprises any number of the patents from the first databases. The system, upon receiving appropriate operator commands, automatically processes the patents in one of the groups in conjunction with non-patent information from the second databases. Accordingly, the system performs patent-centric and group-oriented processing of data. A group can also include any number of non-patent documents. The groups may be product based, person based, corporate entity based, or user-defined. Other types of groups are also covered, such as temporary groups.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2006Date of Patent: May 24, 2011Assignee: Rose Blush Software LLCInventors: Kevin G. Rivette, Irving S.

Patent number: 7821521Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a seamless way to emulate legacy graphics processing on modern graphics hardware. In particular, in some embodiments, the present invention provides a way for modern GPUs to emulate the bitwise operations and rendering processes of previous generations of graphics hardware. The present invention utilizes a novel pixel shader program. The pixel shader program provides a texture lookup functionality that compensates for any missing bitwise functionality. When a bitwise operation is requested, the system will copy out the destination area to a temporary image. This temporary image is fed to the pixel shader program along with a precomputed texture. The texture is precomputed by the CPU for the various bitwise operations and acts as a lookup table for the requested operation. With the temporary image and precomputed texture, the shader program on the GPU can then emulate the legacy graphics operations seamlessly.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2007Date of Patent: October 26, 2010Assignee: Red Hat, Inc.Inventor: Adam Jackson

Patent number: 7770641Abstract: A method for enhancing oil recovery includes the step of providing a subsurface reservoir containing hydrocarbons therewithin. A wellbore is provided in fluid communication with the subsurface reservoir. A surfactant-polymer solution is formed for injection into the reservoir. The surfactant-polymer solution is formed by mixing a composition with at least one surfactant, at least one polymer, and at least one co-solvent or co-surfactant such that the surfactant-polymer solution is clear and aqueous stable. The surfactant-polymer solution is injected through the wellbore into the reservoir. A chaser solution is formed for injection into the reservoir. The chaser solution has an additional predetermined quantity of the co-solvent or co-surfactant. The chaser solution is injected through the injection wellbore into the reservoir to increase the production of hydrocarbons from the reservoir while maintaining the clear and aqueous stability of the surfactant-polymer solution.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2007Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Assignee: Chevron U.S.A.
