Abstract: A method for operating a plurality of wireless networks includes blocking a channel in a second wireless network (SWN) by a first wireless network station (FWN-S) connected to a first wireless network (FWN) and the SWN within an overlapping frequency band. A time for performing blocking after a busy channel is smaller than a predetermined time period. The method further includes indicating part of a total airtime the channel in the SWN will be occupied by the first FWN-S for transmission. The total airtime is computed as a sum of time slots used for successful transmission, their number being computed such that the transmission performance of the SWN is not degraded more than the level of transmission performance is degraded if the first FWN-S would be operating for transmission within the SWN only.

Abstract: In one example, a method for drying a developer unit of a liquid electrophotographic printer. After printing is complete, development voltage biases are applied to the developer unit while a liquid marking agent flows to the developer unit. The liquid marking agent flow to the developer unit is stopped. Drying voltage biases, lower than the development voltage biases, are applied to the developer unit. Idle voltage biases are applied to the developer unit when dry.

In one example, the transmission includes a mechanical drive train to, with the cleaner roller, simultaneously drive the developer roller at a first surface speed and the squeegee roller at a second surface speed slower than the first surface speed.

Abstract: Auxiliary conduits that run through a packer body or seal are equipped with thermally responsive valve members that with a time exposure close off the conduits to create zonal isolation across one or more packers after a gravel pack. The heat source can also be added to the well fluids to control the speed of the process either in the form of heaters or reactive chemicals that create an exothermic reaction. The valve material can be shape memory polymer.

The sliced tender includes two diagonal cuts across and through the tender to yield three strips which are substantially the same in weight and thickness.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for transmitting data between a source node and destination node connected via multiple paths of a heterogeneous network, at least one of the paths delivering packets with a non-deterministic delivery time. Data is divided into frames, each frame comprising a number of packets, where processing by the destination node of an information packet p is conditional on receipt of the data for any information packet i where i<p. A number of sequential transmission slots s, each for transmitting a given packet p of a frame, are allocated for each network path k. A set D of possible assignments of packets to transmission slots for a frame are provided. The method comprises determining an assignment x with minimum in-order delivery delay of said packets based on expected arrival times of packets to their destination and expected reordering delay for packets. Packets are then transmitted in accordance with the determined assignment x.

Abstract: An isolation method is described for gravel packed zones separated by at least one packer and having an auxiliary conduit passing through the packer into adjacent zones. The conduit includes at least one each of a shunt tube, flow housing, annular space, and isolation valve housing. The flow housing, the annular space, and the isolation valve housing are all annular and formed between two concentric pipes. The method includes running in an assembly of screens isolated by at least one packer with at least one auxiliary conduit extending into adjacent zones defined by the packer when the packer is subsequently set. The method also includes closing flow in said conduit to prevent flow into shunt tubes during production based on creating a flow barrier in the annular space, the flow housing, or the isolation valve housing, the shunt tubes supplying slurry through the auxiliary conduit prior to the production.

Abstract: Disclosed is a self-assembly formed by a series of longitudinal members and cross members, all of the longitudinal members being identical to one other and all of the cross members being identical to one other, such that only two types of parts are required to construct the structure. Owing to the shape of the parts, they can be assembled to one another to create a solid structure without requiring any other connecting materials or elements. The longitudinal members comprise a series of slots into which narrowed segments of the cross members are inserted. Once the cross members have been inserted into the slots they are trapped therein by moving the longitudinal members and, in order to prevent this movement occurring in the opposite direction, other cross members are inserted into slots provided in the longitudinal members for this purpose.
