    摘要: A retrievable center bit for use with a tubular including an inner bore and a drill shoe cutter mounted thereon. The retrievable center bit may include a body positionable in the bore of the tubular and including an upper end, a lower end and a side outer surface extending therebetween. A cutting surface may be supported on the lower end of the bit body. There may be a locking assembly on the body for releasably locking the bit axially and rotationally to the tubular. A longitudinal bore may extend from the upper end into the body and the body may include a fluid port extending from the bore to open on the cutting surface and a lateral fluid port extending from the bore opening on the side outer surface positionable adjacent the drill shoe cutter when the bit is locked to the tubular.

    摘要: A low power wireless communication method has a remote device with a simple receiver that listens for a wake-up signal. When the wake-up signal is received a complex receiver is turned on to communicate with the control device. In another embodiment, the simple receiver powers up periodically (or aperiodically) to listen for the wake-up signal.In addition, a wireless modem can communicate to a device, such as an electronic lock, in a number of modes to save power. In one mode the wireless modem just passes any incoming messages through to the device in real time. However, if power needs to be conserved incoming messages can be saved in cache and forwarded to the device over a low power bus, such as a serial bus. In another embodiment, the incoming message can be filtered to determine if it needs to be forwarded to the device.

    摘要: A transflective display device (1), comprising: an array of transmissive pixels (4) and reflective pixels (12) arranged such that at least one characteristic of an image is different for the image displayed in transmissive mode compared to the image displayed in reflective mode, for example different resolution, or one mode colour and the other mode monochrome, and arranged to switch off a backlight (190) that provides illumination for the transmissive mode responsive to the ambient light level (304) exceeding a threshold level (316). The device may further, or alternatively, be arranged to drive the reflective pixels (12) in an all-black state responsive to the ambient light level (304) falling below the threshold (316). An additional threshold (318) may be used to provide a hysteresis loop (320-321). These arrangements tend to alleviate the effect of mixed transmissive/reflective mode images at medium ambient brightness levels (312) where the brightness level (306) of the reflective mode and the brightness level (308) of the transmissive mode are similar.

    摘要: Layered phyllosilicates are useful for adsorbing and/or binding to and, thereby, inactivating viruses. The layered phyllosilicates can be sprayed into a person's nostrils or contained on a face mask to prevent infection; can be suspended in water for skin contact for virus inactivation; can form a portion of an HVAC filter to prevent virus transfer from room to room, e.g., in a hospital; and can be absorbed in a paper or fabric wipe for inactivating viruses on substrates, such as hospital and operating room furniture and surgical apparatus.

    摘要: A radiation therapy treatment system and method of treating a patient with radiation. The system integrates positioning of the patient, treatment planning, and delivery of the plan. As a result of the integration of imaging capabilities into the treatment apparatus, and efficient processes for contouring and planning, a patient can be treated in approximately 20 minutes or less. The method includes acquiring image data from the patient, defining a target region with one or more predefined shapes, generating a treatment plan based on the defined target region, and delivering radiation to the target region.

    摘要: This invention relates to a method and apparatus for developing software. In one embodiment, a method for facilitating the distributed development of software components includes providing a skill rating for software developers, communicating specifications for a software component to a subset of the developers, receiving submissions from the developers, scoring the submissions, and selecting one submission to be included in a software repository. In another embodiment, a method for compensating a software developer includes soliciting software developers for the submission of computer software components, receiving software components in response to the solicitation from the developers, evaluating the received software components, selecting one or more of the submissions for potential distribution to the public, and allotting the proceeds from the distribution to the developers.
