Abstract:
According to one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a method for configuring an operating system is provided. The method includes the step of creating a task schedule on a host, the schedule comprising tasks, task start times, and task deadlines. The task schedule is used to configure a time deadline based operating system on a target computer according to the task schedule. The target operating system is run, while simultaneously capturing event data. The event data is converted into a corresponding graphical representation indicative of the occurrence of significant events on the target, the significant events corresponding to the task start times and the deadlines. The method includes the further step of changing the task start times and task deadlines in response to user interaction with reference to the graphical representation, the changes corresponding to specific significant events; and using the changes to adjust and recreate the task schedule.
Abstract:
According to one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a computer system is provided. The computer system comprises a timer, and a table storing a start time for each process of a preselected set of processes. The computer system includes an operating system that causes execution of each process based on a time out of the timer, each process starting execution according to the corresponding start time stored in the table.
Abstract:
An aircraft flight data monitoring and reporting system is provided. The system comprises: an onboard flight data recording and reporting unit; a zero-configuration service discoverer; a remote base station; a remote flight data monitoring storage and analysis unit; a wireless communication link; and a network, the wireless communication link and network for communications between the aircraft flight data monitoring and reporting system and each of the base station and the flight data monitoring storage and analysis unit, wherein the zero-configuration service discoverer facilitates auto-discovering between the flight data recording and reporting unit and the base station.

Abstract:
A method of controlling or arresting the rate of depolymerization of a polymer composition during a biocide treatment, and use of such methods in oilfield and industrial applications. Also disclosed are methods of preparing a visco-stable application fluid containing a biocide in an amount effective to reduce bacteria count, as well as additive compositions capable of reducing bacteria count in application fluids while maintaining viscosity in such fluids. Also disclosed are methods of preparing biocide-containing application fluids with improved friction reducing properties, as well as related compositions.
Abstract:
A method of controlling or arresting the rate of depolymerization of a polymer composition during a biocide treatment by controlling the pH of the composition, and use of such methods in oilfield applications.
