  • Patent number: 8850307
    Abstract: One embodiment comprises a non-transitory, tangible computer readable storage medium, encoded with processor readable instructions to perform a method of displaying content in a web page. One method optimizes the order of HTTP requests made during the downloading of a web page or web application comprising a plurality of objects, and receiving a first portion of the plurality of objects in a first order. Additionally, (i) a viewable section of the web page, (ii) centers of the viewable section of the web page and each of the plurality of objects, and (iii) a distance from the center of the viewable section of the web page to the center of each of the plurality of objects may be determined. Furthermore, the objects may then be prioritized based on their distance from the center of the viewable section. A request to receive at least one additional portion of the objects in a second order based on the prioritization of the objects may then be sent.

  • Patent number: 4903771
    Abstract: A reservoir-engineering method wherein horizontal barriers against flow of undesired reservoir fluids into an oil well are formed by density-controlled injection of a barrier-forming fluid mixture having a large penetration depth into the reservoir. A barrier-forming injection fluid may be placed at the fluid contacts in the reservoir independent on whether it is injected at these, in that it has an intermediate density in relation to the reservoir fluids between which it is desired to be placed. Particularly suitable barrier-forming injection fluids are foam-forming chemicals which in several ways may be converted into mobility reducing barriers in situ.
