20160026836 | TAMPER CREDENTIAL - Readers are associated with a number of access credentials and, once authenticated by the reader, may grant the holder of the access credential access to a secured asset. Readers may become the target of attack, such as when an unauthorized party attempts to gain access to the interior of the reader or removes the reader from an installed location. Once removed the reader may be reinstalled in another location or a counterfeit reader used in its place. By providing a paired tamper credential, the reader may deny otherwise authorized access to the secured asset if the tamper credential fails to respond appropriately. The tamper credential may fail to respond due to distance, such as when the reader alone is relocated, or the tamper credential is damaged, such as during an attempt to gain access the interior of the reader and/or remove the reader from its installed location. | 01-28-2016 |

20110066535 | CREDIT DEFAULT SWAP CLEARING - An electronic trading system is configured to trade credit default swap (CDS) futures contracts on an open exchange. The CDS futures contract allows the buyer and seller isolate and trade the credit risk of a third party. The third pay may be a corporation, sovereign government, or any entity that issues bonds or notes. The CDS futures contract seller effectively pays the premium over time in increments determined by market rates and through the natural operation of the open market. The CDS futures contract buyer makes a contingency payment if the CDS futures contract goes in-the-money (ITM). Both sides of the contract are guaranteed by the exchange as a counterparty. | 03-17-2011 |

20080281861 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DYNAMICALLY GENERATING ENTERPRISE JAVA BEANS DURING INSTALLATION OF A SERVICE COMPONENT ARCHITECTURE APPLICATION - A method of dynamically generating stateless session beans (EJBs) during installation of a Service Component Architecture (SCA) composite to expose simple SCA POJO components to Java EE callers. During SCA composite installation, an installation utility receives an installation request for a SCA composite with a simple POJO service. If EJB service binding is defined, the installation utility collects data from a service interface to generate a corresponding bean interface and implementation classes. Generic EJB home, bean and interface class templates are pre-defined using EMF JET templates. Data collected from the service interface is fed into pre-defined EMF JET Templates to generate service-specific EJB classes. The installation utility also matches the java interface to the EJB interface to ensure compatibility. Generated bean method has code snippets to delegate calls to SCA components during runtime. Given a simple SCA POJO Service, the installation utility generates Stateless Session bean without Java EE tooling. | 11-13-2008 |

20100175872 | IN SITU COMBUSTION AS ADJACENT FORMATION HEAT SOURCE - Methods and apparatus relate to in situ combustion. Configurations of injection and production wells facilitate the in situ combustion. A first production well disposed in a first oil bearing reservoir is spaced from a second production well disposed in a second oil bearing reservoir separated from the first oil bearing reservoir by a stratum having lower permeability than the first and second oil bearing reservoirs. The stratum isolates one of the first and second production wells from one of the first and second oil bearing reservoirs. In situ combustion through the first oil bearing reservoir generates heat that irradiates into the second oil bearing reservoir to enable producing hydrocarbon with the second production well. | 07-15-2010 |
20140311739 | ACCELERATION OF HEAVY OIL RECOVERY THROUGH DOWNHOLE RADIO FREQUENCY RADIATION HEATING - Heavy oil recovery using downhole radio frequency radiation heating accelerates SAGD thermal recovery processes. In one embodiment, one or more SAGD well pairs traverse a subterranean formation for recovering heavy oil. The SAGD well pairs each create a steam chamber which, over time, expands to allow each steam chamber to interact with one another and in this way, increases the recovery heavy oil from the formation. One or more antennas may be interposed between the steam chambers to introduce electromagnetic radiation into the formation to heat the fluids therein to accelerate expansion of the steam chambers, particularly where antennas are judiciously situated to optimize steam chamber expansion. Where an infill production well is present, the antennas may be situated to accelerate steam chamber communication with the infill production well. Advantages include lower cost, higher efficiencies, quicker and increased hydrocarbon recovery. | 10-23-2014 |
