Abstract: Data processing systems and methods, according to various embodiments, are adapted for determining a categorization for each tracking tool that executes on a particular webpage based on a variety of criteria, such as the purpose of the tracking tool and its source script. The system may compare the characteristics of tracking tools on a webpage to a database of known tracking tools to determine the appropriate categorization. When a user visits the webpage, the system analyzes these categories and determines whether the tracking tool should be permitted to run based on the categories and/or other criteria, such as whether the user has consented to the use of that type of tracking tool.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of storing and transporting, in a dual-use cryogenic storage tank, a cryogenic liquid having a liquefaction temperature. A first pump empties the tank of a first portion of the cryogenic liquid, thereby leaving a second portion of the cryogenic liquid in the cryogenic storage tank. A second portion of the cryogenic liquid is focused at a location on a bottom of the cryogenic storage tank. Using a second pump located at the location, the cryogenic storage tank is emptied of the second portion of the cryogenic liquid, whereby a residual portion of the cryogenic liquid is left therein. Using a focused heating structure, heat may be delivered to the location to raise the temperature of the residual portion above the liquefaction temperature, thereby vaporizing all of the residual portion.

Abstract: A water-borne carrier for transporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied nitrogen (LIN). A plurality of dual-purpose cryogenic storage tanks are arranged along a length of the ship. The plurality of dual-purpose cryogenic storage tanks may contain LNG or LIN. A LNG-only cryogenic storage tank may be arranged along the length of the ship. The LNG-only cryogenic storage tank contains only LNG.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for storing liquid within a storage tank such that a natural resonance of fluid motion of the stored fluid falls between natural resonance periods of a floating vessel that includes the storage tank. As a result, resonant energy of the floating vessel imparted to fluid stored in the storage tank may be controlled and sloshing loads may be reduced, thereby avoiding damage to the floating vessel.
