Abstract: A software program capable of creating and managing security policies on a network is disclosed. When a computer administrator selects a set of security controls based on the selected policy, it automatically communicates the controls to computer systems in the network capable of understanding this information. The computer systems can either be audited against this policy or altered to conform to the selected policy. Such changes might include enabling, disabling, deleting, moving or reassigning users, files or objects within the network. The invention further communicates this policy to individuals responsible for understanding the policy via a software program and tracks their reading and understanding of the policy via the same software.

Abstract: A well logging system includes a digital threshold crossing data generation system (TCDG System) disposed in a well tool, adapted to be disposed in a borehole, and a digital first motion detection (DFMD) software disposed in a memory of a well truck computer. The TCDG system generates a series of threshold crossings for each analog signal received from a receiver of the well tool, the threshold crossings including a plurality of threshold crossing events for each analog signal and representing compressed versions of digitized analog waveforms. The well logging truck computer receives the threshold crossing data from the TCDG system and executes the DFMD software. When the software is executed, a first set of compressional wave first arrival times are determined from a startup routine in the software using the threshold crossing data.
