20160142858 | CONTEXTUAL DEEP LINKING OF APPLICATIONS - A contextual deep linking server receives a request associated with a valid contextual deep link from a client device, the contextual deep link associated with link data indicating a particular configuration of an application. The server also receives, after determining that the client device has stored a previously generated fingerprint, stored contextual information for the client device identified by a locally stored fingerprint that matches the previously generated fingerprint. The server then generates, after determining that the client device does not have the previously generated fingerprint, a unique fingerprint of the client device based on a plurality of characteristics of the client device and determining contextual information of the request based on a characteristic of the client device. The server also transmits a response to the client device that is selected based on the contextual information of the client device such that the response is operable on the client device. | 05-19-2016 |

20120203529 | Paramagnetic Gas Sensor Apparatus and Adjustment Method - This present invention relates to a device for the measurement of the amount of oxygen in a gas mixture, or other gas with significantly different magnetic susceptibility than the background gas mixture, by the use of a suspended test body in a magnetic field that experiences force due to the magnetic susceptibility of the measurand gas. In order to enable a fast time response for the system with a change in oxygen concentration, a flow regime is presented which allows a fast sweep of the measurement volume combined with adjustable, balanced pressure drops via a flow balancing element (or elements) within the flow channels to independently minimise flow related uncertainties. | 08-09-2012 |
20150268095 | Method and System for Correcting Incident Light Fluctuations in Absorption Spectroscopy - A method and system for correcting the effect of intensity fluctuations of the transmitted light in an absorption spectroscopy system used for the detection or measurement of chemical species in a medium, whereby one or more modulation bursts are imposed onto a light beam that passes through the medium. This burst signal may be obtained by modulating the bias current of a tunable diode laser, and the modulation burst signal may be optimally at the second harmonic of the modulation frequency of a wavelength modulated beam to allow usage of the same signal path processing used for the spectroscopic detection of the measurand for a second harmonic detection system. The burst signal can be controlled using a smooth window function to minimise the effects of non-linear perturbations that are inherent in tunable diode laser wavelength modulation spectroscopy systems, of optical interference fringes (etalons) and of the residual light absorption by background chemical species or the measurand at the wavelength coinciding with the modulation burst. | 09-24-2015 |

Provision (e.g., display, transmission, storage, etc.) of the strategic default score is then initiated. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described. | 08-22-2013 |
20150046317 | Customer Income Estimator With Confidence Intervals - Data is received that characterizes at least one of credit, financial, and demographic data for a consumer. Thereafter, estimated income is determined for the user. Using the estimated income and the data, a second income level for the consumer is determined also using a confidence interval model and a pre-defined confidence threshold Ci.

20120199366 | ACTUATOR AND METHOD - An actuator or valve for use in a well comprising: an obstructing member, such as a piston, moveable between: a first position and a second position; and a retaining member, such as a ball, moveable between: a retaining position which retains the obstructing member in the first position; and, a release position which does not retain the obstructing member in the first position and/or allows or causes the obstructing member to move to the second position; wherein the retaining member is adapted to move in use, from one of the retaining position and release position to the other of the retaining position and release position, at least in part, by centrifugal forces caused by rotation of the actuator/valve. Thus at least some control of the actuation of the actuator/valve may be afforded by rotation thereof. In preferred embodiments some control is also afforded by fluid flow contacting the actuator/valve. Embodiments of the invention provide a convenient apparatus and method to control equipment in a well, especially to control a reamer for widening a well. | 08-09-2012 |

20150068763 | DOWNHOLE ACTUATOR - A downhole actuator typically for a downhole tool such as a valve, and typically for incorporation in a string of tubulars in an oil or gas well has a central axis with radially movable counterweights on opposite sides of the axis, which move radially outward to change the activation state of the actuator. The counterweights are supported by link arms which control the movement of the counterweights in response to centrifugal force created by rotation of the body, for example, during rotary drilling operations of the string. Radial outward movement of the counterweights typically transmits axial forces between sleeves at the upper and lower ends of the counterweights, so when the counterweights move radially outward, the upper and lower sleeves approach one another, which typically triggers the actuator. | 03-12-2015 |

20080256977 | Hydrocarbon recovery and light product purity when processing gases with physical solvents - A process and apparatus for separating the components of a multi-component gas stream comprising light and intermediate volatility components. The process includes contacting the multi-component gas stream with a lean solvent in an absorber to produce a light component overhead stream and a rich solvent bottoms stream, flashing the rich solvent bottoms stream in at least one reduced pressure stage, recycling the lean solvent to the absorber, heat exchange cooling of the light component overhead stream, using at least one pressure reduction device for auto-refrigeration cooling, vapor/liquid separating the light component overhead stream in a vapor/liquid separator, reheating a vapor product stream from the vapor/liquid separator against the light component overhead stream, and removing the condensed intermediate component liquid from the vapor/liquid separator. The apparatus for separating the components of a multi-component gas stream containing hydrocarbons including an absorption tower containing internal equipment for contacting a feed gas with a lean solvent stream to create an light component overhead stream and a rich solvent bottom stream, a heat exchanger in contact with the light component overhead stream and a purified product stream, a vapor/liquid separator in contact with the light component overhead stream, and a pressure reduction device in contact with the light component overhead stream. | 10-23-2008 |
20130023711 | LIGHT GAS SEPARATION FROM HYDROCARBONS FOR VARIABLE COMPOSITION FEED STREAMS - The invention is a process and apparatus for separating the components of a multi-component gas stream comprising light and heavier volatility components with a variable composition. The process includes contacting the multi-component gas stream with a lean solvent in an absorber to produce a light component overhead stream and a rich solvent bottoms stream, flashing the rich solvent bottoms stream in at least a first, second and third reduced constant pressure of sequentially lower pressure wherein the released gas is compressed and a part is routed back to the absorber bottoms as stripping gas and a part is routed as a part of the heavier product stream. In this invention compressed vapor from the first or second reduced constant pressure rich solvent flash vessel is split by flow control between recycle routing to the absorber bottom stage as stripping gas and to the heavier product hydrocarbon stream, depending on the feed gas concentration of light component. The third and any additional flash vessels at sequentially lower pressure produce flash gas that is the remainder of the produced hydrocarbon product stream. The lean solvent remaining after the lowest pressure flash is routed back to the top of the absorber. | 01-24-2013 |
