Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the manufacture of microporous carbon materials to perform selective separations of nitrogen in gas mixtures such as hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, methane and C2, C3 and C4+ hydrocarbons, with high efficiency, shaped of microspheres or cylinders from copolymers of poly (vinylidene chloride-co-methyl acrylate) with density of 1.3 to 1.85 g/cm·sup·3 or poly (vinylidene chloride-co-vinyl chloride) with density of 1.3 to 1.85 g/cm.sup.3, using two stages. The first stage consists of a surface passivation of the material by chemical attack in a highly alkaline alcohol solution, with the aim of effecting a precarbonization on the surface of the copolymer that during the pyrolysis process is not deformed and gradually develops microporosity. The material of the first stage presents, in the layer, percentages between 55% to 85% carbon, between 5% to 20% oxygen, and between 10% to 40% chlorine.

Abstract: An ergometric treadmill for sport training comprising a screen, a control system and a system configured for collecting, processing, analyzing and visualizing the biomechanical response of a sportsperson while running on the ergometric treadmill; wherein the ergometric treadmill comprises (a) a plurality of MEMS sensors attached by means of supports to the ergometric treadmill connected to a data capture unit; and (b) a data processing unit configured to generate a plurality of parameters related to the physical exercise performed on the ergometric treadmill by a user and synthesize and show, in graphic form, the parameters generated for the user's biofeedback from the treadmill.

Abstract: A user device includes a local service module application and an advertising application. The user device receives, at the advertising application, advertisement data from an application-specific server associated with the advertising application. The advertisement data includes advertisement content data configured to render an advertisement. The user device is further configured to send the advertisement data from the advertising application to the local service module application. The user device is further configured to receive, at the local service module application, an advertisement request from an advertisement requesting application installed on the user device. The user device is further configured to send, from the local service module application, the advertisement data to the advertisement requesting application in response to the advertisement request.

Abstract: A user device stores a local application including initial search records and an initial search function. Each initial search record includes an application link that opens an application page and search data that describes the application page. The initial search function is configured to select from the initial search records. The user device executes the local application to request and receive search update data from a remote system. The search update data includes updated search records and an updated search function. The user device updates the initial search records and the initial search function with the updated search records and the updated search function. The user device receives a search query from a requesting application, selects a set of updated search records based on the search query and the updated search function, and provides a response to the requesting application including application links from the set of updated search records.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a first request from a user device. The first request includes a partial search query sent from the user device while a user is typing a search query. The method includes generating one or more suggested search queries based on the partial search query and selecting a query advertisement record based on the partial search query. The query advertisement record includes an advertised search query and a bid price associated with the advertised search query. The method further includes sending a first response to the user device that includes the advertised search query and the one or more suggested search queries. The method further includes receiving a second request that includes the advertised search query, generating search results based on the advertised search query included in the second request, and sending the search results to the user device.
