  • Publication number: 20240067076
    Abstract: A strap container that includes a housing and a winding assembly, such that the housing defines a compartment configured to store at least a portion of a strap. A sidewall of the housing has two or more protuberances extending outwardly, and one or more slots. The winding assembly is rotatably coupled to and extends through a base wall of the housing that is perpendicular to the sidewall. The winding assembly includes a strap coupling mechanism configured to removably secure the loose end of the strap within the compartment. A handle exterior to the housing includes a protrusion. The handle may switch between a deployed position that is operable to rotate the winding assembly and a stowed position to lock the handle, and to secure the strap within the housing. In the stowed position, the protrusion resides between two protuberances of the housing so as to prevent rotation of the winding assembly.

  • Patent number: 11899146
    Abstract: A sensing system utilizes multiple wavelengths communicated on a single pulse to a sensor, for example, an optical fiber. Backscattered or reflected light from a number of locations or depths along the sensor are analyzed to correct for 2? phase jump error. A phase sensing method detects the 2% phase jump error associated with one or more measurements from the sensor. Correcting for the 2? phase jump error provides increased accuracy of the one or more measurements, for example, improved vertical sensing profiling, production and fracture monitoring, and micro-seismic monitoring.

  • Patent number: 11676205
    Abstract: In order to protect a trading party from predatory trading strategies employed by some market participants, especially during certain periods when quotes for a particular security are experiencing rapid changes or transitions, embodiments of the present invention facilitate and support various new type of trading orders whose booking and execution behaviors are dynamically varied in response to environmental market conditions and/or predefined rules. For example, the orders may be allowed to trade at more aggressive price levels if the market is relatively stable, and the orders can only trade at less aggressive price levels or be automatically suspended or even cancelled when the market is unstable.

  • Patent number: 11636254
    Abstract: A system for provenance aware editing for propagating edits back to spreadsheets is provided. The system receives an indication of an operation to be performed at an output location. The operation indicates one or more input locations on a spreadsheet that each provides an input value. The input values are accessed and tagged with their corresponding input location on the spreadsheet. Based on the operation and the input value from each of the one or more input locations, the system derives and displays the result at the output location. A user edit to the result is received at the output location, which causes transmission of a propagation request to change the input value at one or more of the tagged input locations. Using where-provenance associated with the tagged input locations, the system propagates the user edit to one or more of the tagged input locations.

  • Patent number: 11461544
    Abstract: A spreadsheet application displays a spreadsheet of cells in tabular form. User input is received specifying an input range of cells of the spreadsheet, a destination range of cells of the spreadsheet and a local modification. A memory stores a representation of the spreadsheet indicating formatting, values and formulas. An update of the representation is computed by applying the local modifications to the representation.

  • Patent number: 11111780
    Abstract: Faded channels in a distributed acoustic sensing system can be mitigated using a phase modulator. A first pulse and a second pulse of an optical signal can be determined. A phase modulator can modulate the first pulse to have a different wavelength than the second pulse. The first pulse can be launched into a sensing fiber that extends into a wellbore. A first backscattered signal can be received from the sensing fiber in response to the first pulse being launched into the sensing fiber. The second pulse can be launched into the sensing fiber and a second backscattered signal can be received from the sensing fiber. Data about an environment of the wellbore can be determined by processing the first backscattered signal and the second backscattered signal to compensate for fading in the first backscattered signal or the second backscattered signal.
