Abstract: The subject matter of this specification can be implemented in, among other things, a method that includes storing first client information identifying a first client device, identifying a location of the first client device, and identifying a first remote access session that provides the first client device access to resources of the remote access system. The method further includes receiving access information identifying an access device and a user account associated with the first client information. The access information indicates that the user account has been successfully authenticated by the access device. The method further includes, in response to the receipt of the access information, causing the first client device to connect to the first remote access session with the remote access system as a background process of the client device while a user interface of the client device remains locked.

Abstract: The present invention refers to an online monitoring system for the gravitational separation of oil emulsions, more specifically, a monitoring system for the properties related to the emulsions, such as the drop size distribution (DSD) and the water content (WC), simultaneously, in pressurized and heated systems at high pressures and temperatures, respectively, using near-infrared region (NIR) spectroscopy coupled with optical microscopy. The online monitoring system is innovative as it overcomes the current need of the oil industry to remove aliquots from emulsified systems under high pressure and temperature, preferably up to 70 bar (7 MPa) and 150° C., respectively, for determination of the properties of emulsions, which causes disturbances and affects the physicochemical characteristics of emulsions.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for online monitoring, without the need for sampling and in real time, the precipitation of inorganic salts in aqueous streams related to the petroleum industry. This method is based on the use of the NIR technique with the aid of the FBRM technique. The NIR technique makes it possible to collect spectra and monitor the variation in absorbances, concerning the formation of particles of inorganic salts in the aqueous solution, while the FBRM technique provides the number and size of precipitated particles through the reflection of light emitted by a beam of Incident light in aqueous systems in the presence of different solvents, pH conditions, supersaturation, temperature and pressure.

Abstract: The subject matter of this specification can be implemented in, among other things, a method that includes comparing, by a processing device in a remote access system, one or more days and times of day corresponding to initiation of a remote access session at a server device to determine that the days and times of day are within a threshold range from a day and time of day. The method further includes storing, in a data storage at the remote access system, first session information identifying the day and time of day for the remote access session at the server device. The method further includes, in response to an occurrence of the day and time of day, causing the server device to initiate the remote access session.

Abstract: The subject matter of this specification can be implemented in, among other things, a method that includes storing first client information identifying a location of a first client device and identifying a first remote access session. The method further includes receiving first mobile information identifying a first location of a mobile device. The method further includes comparing the received first mobile information to the stored first client information to determine that the first location of the mobile device is within a first threshold distance from the location of the first client device. The method further includes, in response to the determination that the first location of the mobile device is within the first threshold distance from the location of the first client device, causing the first client device to connect to the first remote access session at a server device.

Abstract: A rail slideably supports transparent checkout dividers with open bottoms in an upright position along a sidewall of a checkout conveyor. The rail has a perpendicular wall formed on a base. The base is affixed to the top of the sidewall or into a channel formed on the sidewall and the dividers are slid along the rail towards a distal end for access by the customers. A stop prevents the dividers from leaving the rail at the distal end. The perpendicular wall extends upwards into an open bottom in the checkout dividers and keeps the dividers in the upright position allowing any advertising displayed thereon to be un-obscured and oriented to be visible at all times.

Abstract: A transparent divider to be used at checkout conveyors for separating one customers order from the next customers order. The divider is an elongate bar which has an open bottom for ease of stacking or sliding along a checkout rail. A slot is formed in the side walls of the divider into which a sheet of printed advertisement can be folded and slid. The advertisement is visible, preferably on all side walls of the divider. The divider is available in a number of different shapes and can be made as a single piece or as an inner divider with a transparent cover.
