  • Patent number: 11939828
    Abstract: An electric driven hydraulic fracking system is disclosed. A pump configuration that includes the single VFD, the single shaft electric motor, and the single hydraulic pump that is mounted on the single pump trailer. A pump configuration includes a single VFD configuration, the single shaft electric motor, and the single shaft hydraulic pump mounted on the single pump trailer. The single VFD configuration converts the electric power at the power generation voltage level distributed from the power distribution trailer to a VFD voltage level and drives the single shaft electric motor to control the operation of the single shaft electric motor and the single hydraulic pump. The VFD voltage level is a voltage level that is required to drive the single shaft electric motor. The VFD configuration also controls operation of the auxiliary systems based on the electric power at the auxiliary voltage level.

  • Patent number: 11216512
    Abstract: A method may include directing display of a dataset menu listing datasets representative of graphs. The method may include identifying features in the datasets as corresponding to nodes and edges. The method may include selecting local or global mapping to map categorical feature values to numeric values. Local mapping may be selected in response to a distribution of feature values not corresponding across different graphs. Global mapping may be selected in response to a distribution of the feature values corresponding across different graphs. The method may include directing display of configuration settings that indicate the selection between local and global mapping for training a classification model. The method may include obtaining selected configuration settings. The method may include providing the selected configuration settings and datasets to a machine learning backend, which may utilize the machine learning algorithm, datasets, and selected configuration settings to train the classification model.

  • Patent number: 10719674
    Abstract: A scalable tag detection, location, tracking, recovery, and data collection system uses a social network of mobile devices, such as smartphones, as readers, to find lost or stolen goods that are tagged, or to read data or sensor values from tags at remote locations. A network service apparatus compiles IDs of tags of interest into a data structure representing a subset of all tagged items, and transmits the data structure information to the participating mobile devices. Each mobile device application can receive tag transmissions when in proximity to any tag. The mobile device processes received tags with the filter to determine if they are part of the composition of the data structure and thus a tag of interest. If so, the mobile device location, time, and tag ID, are relayed to the network service for additional analysis. The short range tag emits a low power, low duty factor signal.

  • Publication number: 20160285611
    Abstract: A radar detector is used with a radio link, the radio link characterized by high duty factor operation of a radio transmitter. The radar detector is located a sufficient distance from the radio transmitter that the radar detector is not overwhelmed by the radio transmission signal in that channel and can detect sufficiently low level radar signals to ascertain potential radio interference at the radar from said radio transmitter. The results of the radar detection are communicated to the transmitter in a way that impacts the transmitter's use of the sensed channel. This communication can occur reactively when a radar detection is achieved (the absence of which indicates no radar has been detected) and/or can be a periodic or event-driven indication that the channel is available for operation (the information expiring if the result is not refreshed).

  • Patent number: 7930685
    Abstract: A method and system for exposing a version-independent interface to a computer resource. The interface system exposes a version-independent interface to a computer resource, such as a database or computer program. The interface system also provides a version-dependent interface to the computer resource that is typically not exposed. When the computer resource is modified, the version-dependent interface may be modified, but the version-independent interface might not be modified. When the version-dependent interface is modified, a mapping is generated (in some cases automatically) between the version-independent interface and the version-dependent interface. When an accessing computer program uses the version-independent interface to request services of the computer resource, the system uses the mapping to map the request to a request that is appropriate for the version-dependent interface.

  • Patent number: 7840671
    Abstract: Provided herein is a name service that includes published data that is associated with one or more duration entities and one or more modification entities, enabling the name service to more efficiently manage access to published data. To publish data, a publishing client transmits a publication request to a name service. The publication request may specify a modification entity. The name service creates at least one name entry that associates the published data with the modification entity. There are several types of requests to modify data that a name service will honor only when they originate from a modification entity.

  • Patent number: 7767464
    Abstract: A composition and method of detecting counterfeit paper currency includes applying a test solution to a paper currency having ink printed thereon. If the paper currency is counterfeit, the test solution causes the ink to release from the paper currency. If the paper currency is genuine, the ink will not release from the paper currency. The test solution may be an aqueous-alcohol solution having a chemical thickener, and preferably includes a de-foaming agent, a bactericide/fungicide and a fragrance.

  • Patent number: 7698360
    Abstract: A system and method for distance learning that can be used to teach a typical IT training course. In one aspect, a student that desires to perform remotely an exercise from an IT training course uses his/her Java-capable browser to connect to a distance learning web server. The web server downloads to the browser a list of exercises that the student can choose from. After the student selects an exercise, the web server launches the virtual machines that are needed for the student to perform the selected exercise. The virtual machines are launched on a computer system that is remote from the student, but the computer system includes a remote display server. After the virtual machines are launched on the remote system, a remote display viewer is loaded in the student's browser and the remote display viewer connects to the remote display server. After the viewer connects to the remote display server, the viewer displays one or more of the virtual machines in a window on the student's computer.
