  • ANALYSING ENERGY/UTILITY USAGE
    Publication number: 20190180389
    Abstract: A system and method of analysing energy/utility usage receives (316) data describing energy/utility usage derived from an energy/utility monitor, and analyses (2-11) the data describing energy/utility usage to generate data representing an energy/utility usage behavioural classification model. The model includes at least one classification and is useable for determining whether data describing further energy/utility usage fits into a said classification.

  • Process for producing polymer multilayers of segregated nanoparticles
    Publication number: 20070212528
    Abstract: A process for producing a multilayered composite composition which has a discrete layer or layers of nanoparticles within a layer of a polymer, is described. The nanoparticles are precipitated in a liquid polymer, preferably, by heating or solubilization of the polymer. The composite compositions are useful for use in photovoltaic devices as well as for in settings where multiple layers are important such as for low gas or liquid permeability films.

  • Systems and methods for governing content rendering, protection, and management applications
    Publication number: 20070033407
    Abstract: System and methods are disclosed for governing digital rights management systems and other applications through the use of supervisory governance applications and keying mechanisms. Governance is provided by enabling the supervisory applications to revoke access keys and/or to block certain file system calls, thus preventing governed applications from accessing protected electronic content.
