A method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving video data and gathering statistics associated with the video data. At least some of the video data is broken into slices, each of the slices representing a partition in a video frame within the video data. Each frame is encoded with one or more quality layers based on an outgoing rate and based on a number of central processing unit (CPU) cycles, wherein one or more quality layers of the frames are dropped in the encoding process. In more specific embodiments, the statistics relate to how many bits are used for encoding the quality layers of the video data and how much complexity is required for encoding the quality layers of the video data. After the statistics gathering, adjustments to a network rate are executed.

The present invention relates compositions and methods for enhanced oil recovery. The method is directed to employing a water-soluble The present invention relates compositions and methods for enhanced oil recovery (EOR). The method is directed to employing a water-soluble functional polymeric surfactant (FPS), with a medium IFT value, preferably ranged from about 0.1 to about 15 dyne/cm between water phase containing polymeric surfactant and hydrocarbon phase, for recovery of hydrocarbons from subterranean formations. The FPS solution demonstrates a strong interaction with oil and the great potential to increase both volumetric sweep efficiency and microscopic displacement efficiency in EOR.

A recommender system determines a probability threshold for an activity-prediction model, and uses the probability threshold to predict whether a user is performing a target activity. To determine the probability threshold, the system computes a set of activity probabilities based on contextual information for a set of historical activities, and based on an activity-prediction model for a target activity. The system then compares a set of probability thresholds with the set of activity probabilities to determine a prediction success rate for each probability threshold. The system computes a utility score for each probability threshold based on the prediction success rates and a utility function, and selects a probability threshold whose utility score is optimal amongst the utility scores of the set of thresholds and greater than or equal to a baseline utility score. The system then assigns the probability threshold to the activity-prediction model.

摘要:
A performance-efficient activity-modeling system generates a group-activity model for a population group using information from an optimal subset of users of the population group. During operation, the system computes utility scores for a set of users based on a utility-scoring function, such that a respective utility score indicates a usefulness or penalty of collecting a corresponding user's contextual information. The system then selects, from the set of users, a subset of users with highest utility scores, and receives user information from each of the selected users. The system generates the group-activity model based on the user information received from the selected users.

Embodiments of the invention relate to dynamic power management of storage volumes and disk arrays in a storage subsystem to mitigate loss of performance resulting from the power management. The volumes and arrays are prioritized, and in real-time power is selectively reduced in response to both the prioritization and an energy savings goal. A feedback loop is provided to dynamically measure associated power gain based upon a lowering of power consumption, and device selection may be adjusted based upon received feedback.

Disclosed is a method for regenerating and maintaining the activity of an ionic liquid catalyst, which comprises supplying hydrogen halide or halogenated hydrocarbon to the acidic ionic liquid catalyst or alkylation materials during alkylation reaction, wherein said ionic liquid catalyst is used to catalyze alkylation of C4 alkene and alkane. Disclosed is also a method for producing alkylate by alkylation reaction, which comprises supplying hydrogen halide or halogenated hydrocarbon to the acidic ionic liquid catalyst or reaction materials during said alkylation reaction. The method can prolong the service life of the acidic ionic liquid catalyst, does not influence the quality of the alkylate, and has simple operation. The processed amount of materials may be 1000 times more than the used amount of the ionic liquid.
