- Non-Parametric Seismic Data Recovery With Curvelet Frames
- Seismic data recovery from data with missing traces on otherwise regular acquisition grids forms a crucial step in the seismic processing flow. For instance, unsuccessful recovery leads to imaging artifacts and to erroneous predictions for the multiples, adversely affecting the performance of multiple elimination. A non-parametric transform-based recovery method is...

- Value of Information for a 4D-Seismic Acquisition Project
- Decisions regarding data acquisition should involve a cost/benefit analysis. While cost identification usually is easy, determining the value gained from new data is especially difficult when the benefits are mostly indirect. This is the case with 4D-seismic projects in which the main contribution is to reservoir and production management. This...

- The Advantages of Battery-Assisted UHF RFID Labels
- Battery-assisted, backscatter label technology is a recent innovation that addresses the limitations of passive RFID. Also known as "semi-passive" or "semi-active" labels, battery-assisted labels contain a power source, an antenna, and an integrated circuit IC. The main technological difference between passive and semi-passive (battery-assisted) labels has to do with the...

- Errors During Spreadsheet Development Experiments
- Ever since the earliest days of spreadsheet development, there have been reported incidents of spreadsheet errors and the problems they caused. More importantly, a number of systematic field audits have reported errors in 24% of the spreadsheets audited (86% in studies since 1997), and these rates may be low because...
