Security System For Computers
US Patent:
8151073, Apr 3, 2012
Filed:
Jun 24, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/490809
Inventors:
Farid A. Chouery - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
FAC Systems Inc. - Seattle WA
International Classification:
G06F 13/10
US Classification:
711163
Abstract:
A security system designed to trap computer viruses is described. The system storage has an external alarm configured to monitor the time every file takes to load by monitoring the drive activity LED of the storage device. The document storage location is hidden and can optionally be accessed via password. If a virus spends an unexpected amount of time attempting to access storage the alarm will trigger. Downloads and other untrusted files are stored in quarantine storage. Documents can only be transferred from the quarantine storage to the system storage via a copy and paste program.
Method For Determining Whether A Given Value Is Included In An Ordered Table Of Values Stored In A Computer Readable Memory
US Patent:
4674039, Jun 16, 1987
Filed:
Oct 9, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/658987
Inventors:
Farid A. Chouery - Seattle WA
International Classification:
G06F 734
US Classification:
364300
Abstract:
A method for operating a digital computer having computer readable memory means is used to determine whether a given value is included in an ordered table of values stored in the memory means. The method commences by defining lower and upper boundary positions and lower and upper boundary values. The lower and upper boundary positions are defined to be the first and last table positions, respectively, and the lower and upper boundary values are defined to be the values in the lower and upper boundary positions, respectively. An assumed position is then determined for the given value between the lower and upper boundary positions, and a test value is set equal to the value at the assumed position. The test value is then compared to the given value. If the test and given values are equal, then the given value is in the table at the assumed position.
Stabilizing Surface For Flight Deck Or Other Uses
US Patent:
7040247, May 9, 2006
Filed:
Jan 19, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/039548
Inventors:
Farid A. Chouery - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
FAC Systems Inc. - Seattle WA
International Classification:
B63B 35/50
US Classification:
114261, 244116
Abstract:
A mechanism for maintaining a surface such as a landing pad in a desired orientation with respect to a supporting surface includes a pair of columns that rotate with respect to each other. The angle at which the columns engage, or the angle at which the columns engage the surface and the supporting surface, are offset with respect to a line perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cylinders. By selectively rotating the columns with respect to each other and with respect to the supporting surface, the tilt and orientation of the surface are adjusted.

Retaining Wall
US Patent:
7896582, Mar 1, 2011
Filed:
Mar 13, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/404097
Inventors:
Farid A. Chouery - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
FAC Systems Inc. - Seattle WA
International Classification:
E02D 29/02
US Classification:
405286, 405262
Abstract:
A retaining wall or a counterfort retaining wall incorporates a vertical stem wall section, a base section having a toe, a heel, and a number of shallow piles at the bottom of the base section to improve the sliding and overturning safety factor of the wall. To further improve the sliding and overturning safety factor of the wall, an edge of the heel is slanted with a bevel or a batter with an angle to pick up more resisting load.
