Abstract: A method for operating a recirculating chemical-sanitizing dishwasher includes filling a wash tank of the dishwasher with water, and performing a first cycle of washing by circulating the water through a wash chamber of the dishwasher. A partial drain is performed of a first amount of water from the wash tank, and new water (for example, rinse water) is added to the wash tank for a second amount of water approximately equal to the first amount. A second cycle of washing is performed by circulating the water through the wash chamber of the dishwasher.

Abstract: A method of estimating precipitation characteristics including acquiring a radar image including at least a vertical plane of a precipitation zone; processing a vertical profile to generate digital signals representative of reflectivity in vertical direction z; integrating the signals representative of reflectivity by assimilation of a reflectivity vertical profile in an aggregation model to generate a signal representative of the profile in the vertical plane of a mean particle diameter weighted by mass of each particle; and determining concentration of the solid particles on the basis of signals previously determined.

Abstract: A method of accumulating and summarizing a number of customer interaction records pertaining to a specific customer records system (e.g., an ACD) over a predetermined time period commences with the receipt of interaction record including interaction information describing customer interaction. For example, the interaction information could indicate the hold time for a particular call received at the ACD. A cumulative record to which the interaction record contributes is then identified, and the cumulative record is then automatically updated to reflect predetermined interaction information contained within the interaction record. For example, a cumulative log of hold times for the particular ACD over a predetermined time interval may be updated with hold time information included within the interaction record.

Abstract: A method for using ground-penetrating radar to obtain subsurface imaging. The radar comprises resources for transmitting, receiving and processing signals. In one method embodiment, signals are transmitted from a fixed point relative to the subsurface and with the aid of at least two electrical antennae. Signals reflected or backscattered by reflectors or diffusers of the said subsurface are received by way of the electrical antennae and by way of three magnetic antennae. Finally, the reflected or backscattered signals are processed using an algorithm to obtain the imaging of the said subsurface.
