Spectrometer instruments are characterized by classifying their spectra into previously defined clusters. The spectra are mapped to the clusters and a classification is made based on similarity of extracted spectral features to one of the previously defined clusters. Calibration models for each cluster are provided to compensate for instrumental variation. Calibration models are provided either by transferring a master calibration to slave calibrations or by calculating a separate calibration for each cluster.A simplified method of calibration transfer maps clusters to each other, so that a calibration transferred between clusters models only the difference between the two clusters, substantially reducing the complexity of the model.

A method of securing data traffic between a local and remote host systems is provided. The method includes autogenerating a filter having rules associated with a defined tunnel. The filter rules are used to permit or deny acceptance of transmitted data by the host system and to direct traffic to the tunnel. The tunnel, on the other hand, is used to keep data confidential. The method further includes autogeneration of a counterpart tunnel and associated filter to be used by the remote host when in communication with the local host. The method further autogenerates a new filter to reflect changes to any one of the tunnels and autodeactivates the filter associated with a deleted tunnel.

An electric vehicle charging station load forecasting method is divided into a simplified method and a dynamic simulation method. The simplifying method comprises the following steps of counting a vehicle entering a station flow in a typical set time interval in a day by a historical statistics data so that a section curve description formula of an electric vehicle entering the station flow curve is obtained; solving the number of the vehicles entering in the station and being charged in the interval [t-TC, t]; and calculating active power at any time. The dynamic simulation method comprises the following steps of describing charging time by a normal distribution probability density function; performing counting and curve fitting to historical charging time to get a mean value and a standard deviation; and obtaining the whole number of the vehicles being charged and the charging power of the vehicles at every time in a day so that overall charging power of the charging station is calculated. The method is simple in arithmetic, definite in a data interface, fast in operation speed and capable of supporting dynamic interactive simulation of the electric vehicles in a large scale so that time and space distribution of charging load of the electric vehicles can be forecasted and the foundation method can be offered for studying influence on an electric power system by the charging load.

An apparatus is related to connection management for a communications network. A control component receives a data flow requesting a resource from a client, identifies the client, and determines when the data flow is unassociated with a connection to a requested resource. The control component selects a new content server for an unassociated resource request when either the identified client was previously unknown or the identified client has exceeded a maximum number of connections with a previously selected content server. The control component selects the previously selected content server when the identified client has not exceeded the maximum number of connections. A switch component is employed to maintain a connection between the client and the selected content server such that the client receives the requested resource. Utilizing cached connection information for up to “N” connections enhances the speed of connections between the client and the selected content server.

This invention discloses a method for simplifying geometrical data in higher dimensions and in particular reducing three-dimensional (3D) mesh (801) from an original 3D mesh (800). The simplification method comprises a series of reduction steps combined with operations that map the original data onto the reduced data in subsequent steps. The mapping allows calculation of absolute geometrical metrics, including distance and volume, for bounded simplification.

The present invention provides a simplified method of controlling power among the various sources and loads in a power system. Power generating sources are each connected to a common DC bus through a converter designed to optimize power flow to the DC bus. A DC storage device is connected to the common DC bus through a power regulator designed to maintain a constant voltage on the DC bus. Further, an inverter may be provided to convert the DC voltage to an AC voltage for a customer load or for connection to the utility grid. Each power conversion device is independently controlled to provide a modular and simplified power control system.

The present invention provides a simplified method of controlling power among the various sources and loads in a power system. Power generating sources are each connected to a common DC bus through a converter. The converter selectively transfers energy to the DC bus at a maximum rate or at a reduced rate according to the level of the DC voltage present on the DC bus. At least one storage device is preferably connected to the common DC bus through a power regulator. The power regulator selectively transfers energy to or from the DC bus as a function of DC voltage level present on the DC bus. Further, an inverter may be provided to bidirectionally convert between the DC voltage and an AC voltage for connection to a customer load or the utility grid. Each power conversion device is independently controlled to provide a modular and simplified power control system.

A method for calculating a flip angle schedule for a train of refocusing radio frequency (RF) pulses with reduced flip angles allows control of RF power deposition and use of a longer echo train. A target signal is defined for each echo in the echo train, and flip angles are then calculated from the target signals. The target signal schedule includes two phases. In the first phase, the target signals drop asymptotically to efficiently establish a pseudo-steady state at a pre-defined minimum signal level, Smin. In the second phase, the target signal is increased monotonically for the remainder of the train to a pre-defined maximum signal level, Smax. By increasing the target signal, the effect of relaxation may be reduced, decreasing blurring and ringing artifacts. Flip angles are then calculated from the target signal schedule, using a simplified method that requires no information about the tissues' relaxation properties.
