  • Patent number: 10552572
    Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product provide the ability to design a drainage pipe solution. A profile of a surface segment (that includes a surface slope) is acquired. A first pipe size and a first pipe slope or calculated based on a proper velocity. A second pipe size and a second pipe slope are calculated based on the surface slope. A first pipe covering and a second pipe covering for the first pipe size and the second pipe size, for the surface segment is computed. A lower of the first pipe covering and the second pipe covering is selected as the drainage pipe solution.

  • Publication number: 20020026521
    Abstract: A system and method for managing and distributing a multi-media presentation from a single central location. In one illustrative embodiment, the system relies on a plurality of servers to manage respective assets of the presentation. The system receives a packaged presentation over a communications network, with the presentation consisting of a plurality of files in different file formats. The presentation is unpackaged and the files are distributed to the appropriate servers. A copy of the packaged presentation is also maintained. A recipient may either download the presentation for subsequent viewing, or the central system may host the presentation, with the respective servers cooperating to transmit the various files to the requester in a streaming manner.
