Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying matching properties between a group of bodies representing a geological structure and a table of properties by performing property matching on the group of bodies to convert each body to a respective compartment represented by a triangulated mesh of the bounding body.

Abstract: A system for sensing occurrences of hand washing events includes a dispenser of a hand sanitizing solution and a motion sensor that is coupled to the dispenser. The motion sensor is configured to sense vibrations of the dispenser. When at least a threshold amount of movement is sensed, logic is configured to analyze samples from the motion sensor in order to determine whether the sensed vibrations result from activation of the dispenser. If so, the dispenser activation is logged and reported for use within a system, such as a system for monitoring compliance with a hand washing policy.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a custom reservoir from multiple compartments representing one or more geological structures by performing custom reservoir generation on each compartment to generate one or more combined compartments.

Abstract: A wireless mesh network has a plurality of nodes. One of the nodes, referred to as a “topology building node,” is configured to discover a topology of the network. In this regard, a multicast topology message is transmitted via at least one node of the network. Each node that receive such message transmits a topology multicast reply to the topology building node which adds the transmitting node to the topology if the transmitting node is not already identified by the topology. Upon adding a node to the topology, the topology building node transmits a topology multicast command to the added node thereby causing such node to transmit a multicast topology message. Accordingly, the topology eventually receives a topology multicast reply from each node of the network allowing such node to build a complete topology of the network.

Abstract: A wireless network has a plurality of nodes that are configured to communicate electrical signals via a backhaul channel in which messages hop from node-to-node through the network. The nodes have optical transmitters for communicating with tags via an optical channel that is time division multiplexed (TDM) among the nodes of the network. The nodes are configured to transmit an electrical synchronization signal via the backhaul channel and to synchronize transmissions for the optical channel based on the electrical synchronization signal. Thus, use of the backhaul channel to communicate the synchronization signal leverages the existing framework of the network in order to synchronize the optical transmitters without requiring specialized synchronization circuitry, and a robust TDM algorithm can be implemented for the optical channel with relatively low complexity and costs.

Abstract: In one aspect, an apparatus for measuring a tension force on a net cord of a sports net is disclosed. The apparatus may include a housing configured to connect to a static post. The apparatus may also include a slidable member and attachment members. The attachment members may be configured to engage a portion of the net cord. A resilient member inside the housing may be connected to the slidable member, and an indicator member may be connected to the slidable member within the housing. The slidable member may be configured to move within the housing in response to and by a distance proportional to an amount of tension force on the net cord. The indicator member may be connected to the slidable member such that a portion of the indicator member may be exposed through a slotted opening defined in the housing.

Abstract: Various approaches for incrementally updating the timing of an implementation of an electronic circuit design are disclosed. In one approach, a subset timing graph is selected from a primary timing graph. Alternative subset timing graphs are generated that are functionally equivalent and structurally different with respect to the selected subset timing graph. For each of the alternative timing graphs, a respective timing metric is determined. The determined timing metrics and a timing metric for the selected subset timing graph are compared. An alternative timing graph is selected in response to the comparison. Structurally different portions of the selected one of the one or more alternative timing graphs are verified with regard to the design constraints. The structurally different portions are stored to the primary timing graph.
