  • Patent number: 7774504
    Abstract: A system for capturing data via an extensible markup language form is disclosed comprising a policy-based mobile content engine, a mobile-forms application client, and a transport engine. The policy-based mobile content engine is adapted to process a plurality of definitions from one or more mobile-forms application definition files. The policy-based mobile content engine translates the mobile-forms application definitions into policies and actions enforced by the policy-based mobile content engine. The mobile-forms application client has a plurality of rendering engines targeted for a mobile user device to render form controls and to process the forms-based application. The mobile-forms application client is operable on a mobile user device and is adapted to capture the data as an extensible-markup-language document.

  • Publication number: 20100049874
    Abstract: A method and system relating to a mobile orchestration platform to facilitate share of data between orchestration endpoints is disclosed. The orchestration endpoints may include data applications or data services located on a mobile device or remotely from the mobile device. An example platform includes a first endpoint connector associated with a first orchestration endpoint to communicate between the mobile orchestration platform and the first orchestration endpoint. A second endpoint connector associated with the second orchestration endpoint to communicate between the mobile orchestration platform and the second orchestration endpoint is included. A service module to translate a data record in an intermediate data format to either the first data format or the second data format is included.

  • Publication number: 20100023531
    Abstract: A method and system for providing real-time display of data collected and submitted via mobile devices. An example method includes collecting data in a data record by the mobile device. The collected data record is submitted to a remote server. At least some of the data in the collected data record is displayed in real-time relative to the submission of the collected data record via an interface.

  • Publication number: 20090032611
    Abstract: A floating fountain includes multiple pumps that combine respective outputs into a mixing chamber that is configured to disperse fluid and more specifically water through an outlet port. The pumps may be similar in power rating and configuration and may be connected to the mixing chamber via one or more conduits. Fluid is forced under pressure through the outlet and past a diverter for dispersing the fluid in an ornate manner.

  • Publication number: 20060224959
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing a user interface through which a user may generate a conditional expression are provided. The user interface provides guidance to a user as to the proper parts of the conditional expression to include in the conditional expression as the user constructs the conditional expression. Thus, as the user completes parts of the conditional expression, the guidance that is offered is updated based on the current context of the conditional expression. This guidance may include listings of variables, attributes and/or functions that are most appropriate to be entered next in the conditional expression, help text, and the like.

  • Publication number: 20050222476
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for removing acetylene from a gasoeus mixture comprising hydrogen, methane, ethane, ethylene, acetylene, propane, propylene, butane, butenes, butadiene, and other C4 or higher hydrocarbons. The method of the invention utilizes a front-end acetylene removal unit (“ARU”) located after a charge gas compressor in which acetylene is selectively reduced. The method of the invention achieves selective reduction of acetylene by using a proprietary Chevron Phillips E series palladium based catalyst. The method of the invention also utilizes a novel startup procedure, a novel emergency shutdown procedure, a novel maximum cool down procedure, and a novel carbon monoxide monitoring procedure.

  • Patent number: 5205207
    Abstract: A lower housing defines an elongated heat chamber with side-mounted longitudinally extended linear gas burners which heat the space in the chamber and also edibles mounted on a longitudinal spit which rotates at about the top of the housing. Removable covers enclose the heat chamber, and are removed to permit the spit to be released from its drive mechanism and elevated into a carving mode, with a carving tray underneath, so that meat can be carved on the spit and its accessories, and also on the tray immediately below the spit, keeping all the food warm while it is being carved. The rotisserie includes accessories for mounting fish, poultry and chunk meat, and also has a grill accessory, with the longitudinal dimensioning of all the parts and accessories being such that carving can be done beneath the spit in its carving mode at one portion of the rotisserie, while meat skewered on the other portions of the rotisserie are maintained hot from the heat emanating up from the heat chamber.
