This invention relates to methods and apparatus for determination of ion concentrations, particularly in downhole water from hydrocarbon wells, aquifers etc. It is useful in a wide range of applications, including predicting the formation of scale and fingerprinting waters from different sources. More particularly, the invention relates to the use of ligands whose electronic configuration is altered by the binding of the scaling ions within a water sample. These alterations are detected, for example by electrochemical means, and are indicative of the concentration of scaling ions in the sample.

Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems are provided for facilitating the completion of a user task. That is, user intent (e.g., intentions of a user to perform a user task) may be identified. The user intent may comprise an entity (e.g., a movie entity) and/or an action (e.g., an order movie tickets action) that the user wants to perform on the entity. A provider list may be created based upon one or more providers capable of performing the action on the entity (e.g., a movie application may be capable of performing the order movie tickets action on the movie entity). Providers may be dynamically selected for inclusion within the provider list at run-time. For example, an open market of providers may be maintained (e.g., providers may be added, removed, and/or updated over time), such that providers may be selected from the open market to complete user tasks.

Desirable completion zones can be identified using closure stress in combination with one or more other attributes such as porosity. One computer-based well placement method includes using the computer to: process a seismic data volume to map the spatial distribution of a seismic-based CSS attribute; acquire logs from one or more boreholes in the subsurface region; derive from the logs a relationship between CSS and a minimum in-situ stress; apply the relationship to the CSS attribute map to produce a landing map that highlights desirable completion zones; and place one or more wells in the desirable completion zones. The borehole logs may include direct measurements of minimum in-situ stress (acquired via microfracture testing), sonic tool measurements of P-wave and S-wave velocity, and density tool measurements of bulk formation density.

In an electronic device, an image point A on an image of an object is selected. A spectral confocal sensor is controlled to move to a position above a measuring point A′ on the object, where the measuring point A′ corresponds to the image point A, and a Z-coordinate of the measuring point A′ is computed using the spectral confocal sensor. A focal position of the measuring point A′ is computed according to the Z-coordinate of the measuring point A′, and a CCD lens is controlled to move to the focal position. The Z-coordinate of the measuring point A′ is stored into a storage unit of the electronic device.

The present invention discloses a method for fabricating semiconductor devices. After removing excessive aluminum to form aluminum gates through a chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) process, the exposed surfaces of the aluminum gates are oxidized with H2O2 solution to form a film of alumina, and the semiconductor device is cleaned.

摘要:
Various systems, devices, and methods for shape deformation of a haptic deformation display device are provided. For example, the haptic deformation display device may receive an input signal when the shape of the haptic deformation display device is in a first shape configuration. In response to the input signal, the haptic deformation display device may activate an actuator of the haptic deformation display device. The actuator may move a deformation component of the haptic deformation display device. The deformation component may at least partially defining a shape of the haptic deformation display device, thereby causing the shape of the haptic deformation display device to deform into a second shape configuration different from the first shape configuration. The second shape configuration may be substantially maintained.

Computer-readable media, computer systems, and computing methods are provided for implicitly discovering applications using a query or search results, where the query does not explicitly target a particular application. A search engine is used to receive a user-initiated query and to employ a keyword of the query to generate an initial set of search results. Characteristics of the search results are identified and applications that are relevant to the characteristics are determined. The determination of relevant applications include: accessing an application manifest that manages a mapping between applications and predefined characteristics; comparing the characteristics of the search results against the predefined characteristics of the application manifest to determine a match; and, when a match exists between the search-result characteristics and the predefined characteristics, identifying applications mapped to the matched characteristics as being relevant to the search results. These identified applications are presented in response to the query.
摘要:
An application (“app”) may be associated with a web site, so that an online service may use the connection between the app and the web site. In one example, the online service is an information provider, such as a search engine or advertising engine. The online service provides a web administrator portal, through which a webmaster provides or generates a secret code. The webmaster gives the secret code to an app developer, who gives the code to an app store when the app is published. If the service provides information about the web site (e.g., as a search result or ad impression), the service may also provide an indication of the app, since the use of the code represents confirmation by both the webmaster and app developer that a relationship exists between the web site and the app.
摘要:
Methods for reducing a viscosity of a viscosified fluid include reacting, such as by depolymerizing and/or decomposing, a polymeric material of the viscosified fluid with a breaking agent including one or more organic peroxide breakers having a structural feature selected from a cyclic peroxide segment and/or multiple linear peroxide moieties per molecule. The methods of treating the subterranean are provided that include reacting, such as by depolymerizing and/or decomposing, a polymeric material of a viscosified treatment fluid with one or more organic peroxide breakers having a structural feature selected from cyclic peroxide segment and/or multiple linear peroxide moieties per molecule to facilitate breaking of the viscosified treatment fluid after the fracturing or treatment is finished.
