International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705037000

Abstract:

A collaborative system and method allows members of a group to collaborate on a project such as a bid or proposal. According to a first embodiment, a complex instrument trading engine (CITE) facilities negotiation between two or more parties. A set of tools and techniques are provided in order to facilitate negotiation and execution of complex instruments such as contracts between corporations and governments. According to a second embodiment, referred to as a dynamic collaborative environment, a user can define a group and a virtual private network environment including user-selected tools that facilitate communication, research, analysis, and electronic transactions within the group. The environment can be destroyed easily when it is no longer needed. Multiple environments can co-exist on the same physical network of computers.

US Patent:

51178664, Jun 2, 1992

Filed:

Dec 21, 1990

Appl. No.:

7/632333

Inventors:

John C. Nicholas - Rockville MD

Assignee:

Pulse Electronics, Inc. - Rockville MD

International Classification:

F16K 5100

US Classification:

137561A

Abstract:

An improved "air box" for fuel measuring systems eliminates the regulator, filter and needle valve and replaces those components with a manifold and simple flow restrictor. In a preferred embodiment, three flow restrictors made of a porous, sintered metal are used in a low pressure outlet fitting which is threadably attached to the manifold. The air flow restrictor assemblies can be easily removed from the air box manifold and cleaned or replaced.

US Patent:

45701563, Feb 11, 1986

Filed:

Mar 16, 1984

Appl. No.:

6/590453

Inventors:

John J. Nicholas - Leesburg VA

Assignee:

Systematics General Corp. - Sterling VA

International Classification:

G08B 1308
A47B 8100

US Classification:

340547

Abstract:

A work station is designed for use with electronic equipment whereby the placement of the equipment in the work station prevents undesired electromagnetic coupling between various pieces of the electronic equipment. A substantially horizontal work surface is provided between a cabinet at one end and a safe at the other end. The cabinet provides a Faraday cage for receiving a MODEM and for preventing the passage of electromagnetic radiation, whereby undesired coupling between the MODEM and other pieces of electronic equipment is substantially precluded. The safe is designed to house an encryption device. A horizontal work surface supports electronic input equipment, such as a word processor, in position for convenient use by an operator. The electronic equipment on the work surface is connected to the encryption device in the safe which is, in turn, connected to a modulator-demodulator (MODEM) in the cabinet. All of the electrical connections between these pieces of equipment are shielded to prevent undesired coupling.
