20100000747 | Cookstove fire extinguishing system - An improved fire protection system that is of fail safe design for kitchen stoves and other applications utilizing gas for generating heat and in which a fire condition such as a skillet of grease becomes ignited. Said system is activated thermally to release a quantity of fire suppressant material onto the top of the stove quenching the fire while simultaneously cutting off the cooking gas. The system utilizes a reservoir containing the fire suppressant under pressure with a hose or pipe connected to one or more thermally activated spray heads. A second hose or pipe is connected to a pneumatically operated gas cut off valve. The activation of the thermally activated spray head or heads exhausts the pneumatic pressure of the reservoir thereby causing the gas cut off valve to close against the cooking gas. | 01-07-2010 |

Applied data models created from these generic data models may be searched utilizing a query language which allows efficient searching of the applied data model, and structuring of the concomitant results. | 07-01-2010 |

20110088001 | AUTOMATED SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING GOALS - A goal management system stores at least first and second goals. The goal management system also stores a relationship between the first goal and the second goal. In one aspect, the goal management system detects modification of the first goal and, in response, causes the second goal to be automatically highlighted for alignment verification. In another aspect, the second goal is a parent goal to the first goal, and the relationship is stored as a parent link associating the first goal with the parent goal. The goal management system also stores an owner for the first goal. In response to detecting modification of the parent goal, the goal management system causes the first goal to be automatically highlighted for alignment verification in a display associated with the owner of the first goal, based on the parent link. Additional aspects relate to additional technological solutions which facilitate goal management through, for example, goal alignment. | 04-14-2011 |

20140081678 | Rate Oscillation Monitoring Hotel Reservation System - A system may include a processor coupled to a memory. The processor is capable of determining a hotel cluster and facilitate a first hotel reservation in response to receiving an indication that a user has selected a first hotel rate. The processor is also capable of monitoring rate oscillation and determining whether a second hotel rate is less than the first hotel rate. The processor is also capable of facilitating the second hotel reservation in response to determining that the second hotel rate is less than the first hotel rate. The processor is further capable of communicating a message to the user in response to facilitating the second hotel reservation. The processor is capable of canceling the first hotel reservation if the user has selected the second hotel reservation and canceling the second hotel reservation if the user has selected the first hotel reservation. | 03-20-2014 |

20130198378 | RESPONDING TO QUALITY OF SERVICE EVENTS IN A MULTI-LAYERED COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A method for providing broadband communications over a multi-layer network having a plurality of Open System Interconnection layers. The method stores information in a memory, the information indicating for each of a plurality of communication resources within the multi-layer network, one or more layers of the network with which that communication resource is associated. The method monitors the multi-layer network to detect a quality of service event that has occurred at a first of a plurality of communication resources, and in response to the monitoring, uses the information to determine a layer of the multi-layer network that is associated with the first of the plurality of communication resources. The method responds to the quality of the service event by changing provisioning of the multi-layer network at a layer that is different from the layer of the multi-layer network that is associated with the first of the plurality of communication resources. | 08-01-2013 |

20130035902 | METHODS OF DESIGNING EARTH-BORING TOOLS USING A PLURALITY OF WEAR STATE VALUES AND RELATED METHODS OF FORMING EARTH-BORING TOOLS - Methods of designing an earth-boring tool are described, including calculating one or more performance parameters based on drilling conditions, a plurality of wear state values, and a set of values of other design variables. Methods of enhancing a performance parameter in the design of an earth-boring tool are also described, including calculating the performance parameter based at least partially on a plurality of wear state values and a first set of values of other design variables, calculating the performance parameter based at least partially on the plurality of wear state values and a second set of values of design variables different than the first set, and comparing the calculated performance parameters to determine which of the first and the second set is closer to a target range or value across a range of the plurality of wear state values. Related methods of forming an earth-boring tool are also described. | 02-07-2013 |
20130035903 | METHODS OF DESIGNING EARTH-BORING TOOLS USING A PLURALITY OF DEPTH OF CUT VALUES AND RELATED METHODS OF FORMING EARTH-BORING TOOLS - Methods of designing an earth-boring tool are described, including calculating one or more performance parameters of the tool based on drilling conditions, a plurality of depth of cut values, and a set of values of other design variables. Methods of enhancing a performance parameter in the design of an earth-boring tool are also described, including calculating the performance parameter based at least partially on a plurality of depth of cut values and a first set of values of other design variables, calculating the performance parameter based at least partially on a second set of values of the other design variables different than the first set, and comparing the calculated performance parameters to determine which of the first and the second set is closer to a target range or value across a range of the plurality of depths of cut. Related methods of forming an earth-boring tool are also described. | 02-07-2013 |

20100083251 | Techniques For Identifying And Comparing Virtual Machines In A Virtual Machine System - A technique for identifying virtual machines (VMs) in a VM system includes determining a configuration file location on a data store for the VM. A VM manager (for the VM) and an associated VM identification assigned to the VM (by the VM manager) are determined. A unique VM identification is then created based on the configuration file location on the data store, the VM manager, and the associated VM identification. | 04-01-2010 |
