Patent number: 8032277Abstract: A method for logging and reporting driver activity and vehicle operation includes identifying a driver of a vehicle, recording operating data with an on-board recorder that is hard-wired to an engine control module, coupled to a mileage sensing system, and linked to a global navigation satellite system, and recording duty status of the driver. An hours of service log and a fuel tax log are created from the operating data. The method includes comparing the driver's hours of service log to an applicable requirement, indicating to the driver whether the driver is in-compliance or out-of-compliance with the applicable requirement, automatically uploading the logs to a receiver external to the vehicle using a wireless telecommunications network, and emitting a compliance signal representative of whether the driver is in-compliance or out-of-compliance with the applicable requirement to a second receiver external to the vehicle and under control of authorities.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2011Date of Patent: October 4, 2011Assignee: Innovative Global Systems, LLCInventors: Bradley R.

Publication number: 20070292209Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention include a stationary boat lift in which boats can enter and exit quite readily. The boat lift allows a boat to bypass various barriers in a safe and efficient manner by orienting the boat in a direction substantially parallel to the barrier, vertically lifting the boat out of one waterway, laterally translating the boat horizontally over the barrier, and then vertically lowering the boat into a second waterway.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2006Publication date: December 20, 2007Inventors: Richard Bishop, charles Bishop

Publication number: 20060254165Abstract: A protective shelter and methods for manufacturing are disclosed. The shelter is capable of protecting individuals from significant wind velocities and other catastrophic damages that occur from dangerous conditions such as hurricanes, tornadoes and the like. Prior to the pouring the floor slab of a home, the shelter is fixedly attached to a plurality of supports that have been fixedly attached to a portion of the foundation of the home. When the floor slab is poured, enough concrete is poured to cover the supports up to essentially the top edges of the channel frame base rails to form the base of the shelter, thus incorporating and anchoring the shelter into the foundation of the home.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2005Publication date: November 16, 2006Inventor: Richard Bishop

Patent number: 6199179Abstract: Multiple instances of operating systems execute cooperatively in a single multiprocessor computer wherein all processors and resources are electrically connected together. The single physical machine with multiple physical processors and resources is subdivided by software into multiple partitions, each with the ability to run a distinct copy, or instance, of an operating system. At different times, different operating system instances may be loaded on a given partition. Resources, such as CPUs and memory, can be dynamically assigned to different partitions and used by instances of operating systems running within the machine by modifying the configuration. The partitions themselves can also be changed without rebooting the system by modifying the configuration tree. The system makes use of a failure protocol that results in the transfer of processing resources controlled by an instance that experiences a failure to new destination instances on other partitions.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 1998Date of Patent: March 6, 2001Assignee: Compaq Computer CorporationInventors: James R. Kauffman, Richard A. Bishop

Patent number: 5447037Abstract: A method of utilizing an economizer to reduce the energy usage of a mechanical refrigeration system. The method comprises the steps of: economizing if both cooling demand and the prerequisites to economize are present; measuring economizer capacity; determining if the measured economizer capacity is sufficient to meet the needs of a zone being conditioned; continuing to economize as long as there is both a cooling demand and the prerequisites to economize; and initiating the use of the mechanical cooling system only if the economizer capacity has been determined to be insufficient to meet the needs of the zone being conditioned.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 1994Date of Patent: September 5, 1995Assignee: American Standard Inc.Inventors: Richard A. Bishop, Joe M. Baldwin
