Abstract: This patent presents a method, and some devices based on the method, to achieve near zero air based transmission of disease within a business, while still allowing people to approach each other closer than arms length touching distance. This can be achieved with rapidly deployable portable units. It also presents a simple method to test whether the airflow structure requirements of the system have been met, and to adjust it if not.

Abstract: This invention describes an improved method of transferring running VMs between servers that would allow them to move between datacenters, even ones that are halfway across the world from each other.

Abstract: This invention describes a novel digital broadcast modulation scheme to provide wide area coverage at a high bit rate from a single transmitter. The scheme creates an additional dimension within which to create transmission channels besides those of time, code, direction and frequency. Advantages of scheme include lower power to deliver the same total bit rate to an area, wider coverage using the same power, and closer spacing of transmitters sharing the same frequencies. It is particularly well suited to supporting broadcast of data to a large population of users.

Abstract: While solar energy is widely available, current means to harness it are sufficiently expensive that for most applications it is not economically viable. The basic problem is that solar energy is not sufficiently concentrated, and the cost of the collector becomes the limiting factor. This invention teaches a way of building a solar collector and an associated energy conversion engine that together allow one to build cost effective solar electric systems that can compete with natural gas based power plants.
