  • Publication number: 20230031724
    Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework that assembles a musical profile for a user based on the user's musical tastes and experiences, whereby digital relationships can be established based therefrom which enables digital and real-world interactions between users of such relationships. The disclosed framework provides social-based functionality for discovering individuals as well as new forms of music content. The framework combines social networking functionality with music streaming functionality in a novel way that enables users to discover each other based on music renderings, as well as discover additional music to render. The disclosed systems and methods, therefore, provide a novel way for connecting users on a deeper level than previously existed prior to the advent of the disclosed audio and social-based electronic network, which enables cross-demographic, music-based compatibility to drive user engagement, and user and content discovery.

  • Patent number: 8911622
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for skimming oil and other liquid hydrocarbons and contaminates floating at the surface of a body of water or other suspending liquid. A rigid skimming surface such as a drum or disc is floatably supported on pontoons. The skimming surface is rotatable about an axis substantially parallel to the water surface. The skimming surface is covered with removably attached sorbent material which improves the efficiency of the oil recovery operation and which, when worn or soggy, can be removed and discarded without discarding the skimming surface.

  • Patent number: 8335742
    Abstract: A browser-based simulator may be used to create and send test messages to one or more transaction processing facilities (TPFs) to determine the response of the TPF system. It allows a user or plurality of users to create ISO 8583 messages, send the messages to the TPF systems, receive a response, and display the results to the users. Messages created by the simulator are stored within an ANSI queryable SQL database to make test selection simple. The TPF test messages and results are thus available worldwide. Further, the simulator is server-based, so desktop licenses are not required. The simulator allows a user to either select a preformatted message or derive a new message by selecting the data of interest.

  • Patent number: 3930774
    Abstract: Thickness of a sheet being produced by an extruder is controlled in response to measurements of: sheet thickness, the speed at which material is fed through a screw of the extruder, as determined by screw speed, and the speed with which material is taken away from the extruder, as determined by sheet speed. Measured thickness is compared with a setpoint for sheet thickness and a determination is made as to whether the thickness is in a predetermined, deadband region relative to the setpoint, or if the sheet is out of the deadband because it is excessively thin or excessively thick. In response to the sheet thickness being in the deadband region, the screw speed is changed in response to a signal indicative of the product of sheet speed error and rate of change of screw speed with respect to sheet speed. Sheet speed is controlled by multiplying sheet speed error by a predetermined constant.
