Publication number: 20130132115Abstract: The present invention generates a forecast factor indicating an anticipated demand for a medical resource in a medical facility during a selected time period. The invention generates the forecast factor using billing data retrieved from one or more billing data systems wherein the retrieved billing data is from a prior time period that is comparable to the selected time period. The invention may also generate a schedule of the medical resource using the determined forecast factor such that the generated schedule may substantially correspond to the anticipated demand for the medical resource during the selected time period. In addition, the invention may also generate one or more displays of the determined forecast factor to a user and may also receive a user input for selecting and/or modifying the protocol used to determine the forecast factor.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2013Publication date: May 23, 2013Applicant: Syus, LLCInventors: David Reynolds, Prakash Raghothamachar, Mark Soileau, Eric Vickery, Millan Zimmermann

Publication number: 20120118568Abstract: A method for wellbore perforation in which a section of the wellbore to be perforated is isolated and purged of wellbore fluid to provide a clear path for laser beam transmittal. A laser beam emitter in the purged wellbore section transmits a laser beam pulse from the laser beam emitter to a target area of a sidewall and formation lithology of the purged wellbore section, thereby altering a mechanical property of a material of the sidewall and formation lithology and producing material debris. A liquid jet pulse of a liquid is transmitted immediately following termination of the laser beam pulse to the target area, thereby removing the material debris from the target area. This cycle is then repeated until the desired perforation depth has been achieved.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2010Publication date: May 17, 2012Applicants: HALLIBURTON ENERGY SERVICES, INC., GAS TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTEInventors: Mark Kleefisch, Colin Hawthorn, Henry David Reynolds, Neal Gregory Skinner, Jim Basuki Surjaatmadja, Roger Lynn Schultz, Timothy Holiman Hunter

Patent number: 8082554Abstract: The present invention provides methods, apparatus and computer programs for event-based control of subscription matching in a publish/subscribe communications environment. Activation and/or deactivation events are associated with subscriptions at a publish/subscribe broker and are used to control when a subscription is active. The broker is responsive to temporally-unpredictable events, such as receipt of a published message on a predefined activation topic, to activate subscription matching for messages that are subsequently received or which have been received earlier and retained at the broker. Conventional subscription matching can be avoided for a registered subscription while that subscription is inactive, and subscribers are not required to explicitly and repeatedly subscribe and unsubscribe.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2007Date of Patent: December 20, 2011Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Ian Gerald Craggs, Anthony Alan Garrard, Ian Robert Harwood, Andrew Ian Hickson, David Locke, Andrew David Reynolds, Andrew James Stanford-Clark, Jane Louise Stockdill
