Abstract: A modulator for modulating incident rays of light, the modulator having a plurality of equally spaced apart elements, each of which includes a light reflective planar surface. The elements are arranged parallel to each other with their light reflective surfaces parallel to each other. The modulator includes means for supporting elements in relation to one another and means for moving particular ones of the elements relative to others so that the moved elements transit between a first configuration wherein the modulator acts to reflect the incident rays of light as a plane mirror, and a second configuration wherein the modulator diffracts the light reflected therefrom. In operation, the light reflective surfaces of the elements remain parallel to each other in both the first and the second configurations. The perpendicular spacing between the reflective surfaces of respective elements is equal to m/4 times the wavelength of the incident rays of light, wherein m=an even whole number or zero when the elements are in the first configuration and m=an odd whole number when the elements are in the second configuration.

Abstract: A wireless communication device which automatically and seamlessly switches to an alternate, available system when it is unable to complete a call origination attempt, without requiring the user to take any affirmative actions to select the alternate system or re-initiate a call origination. The wireless communication device decreases the percentage of call failures by providing a hold-over of pending call origination attempts until service is finally acquired. In the case of either exceeding the maximum number of access sequences (reverse link limited) or failure to acquire the forward link of the preferred communication system (forward link limited), the user is not required to re-initiate the call origination, thus turning a potential call failure into a success.

Abstract: A method of reducing isobaric interferences by transmitting ions from an ion source through an ion transmission device, typically a quadrupole collision cell, and then into an analyzing mass spectrometer, in which the collision cell is operated with a pass band which rejects intermediate ions which would otherwise tend to react to form isobaric interferences. Preferably ammonia is used as a reaction gas in the collision cell. Depending on the chemistry involved, the collision cell may be operated to set the low mass cutoff at an appropriate level, or more usually, the pass band will have both high and low mass cutoffs determined by applying both RF and DC to the collision cell. The collision cell may also be operated with a pass band to transmit ions into a time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometer, thus limiting the mass range of ions entering the TOF and thereby improving the duty cycle of the TOF.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying, confirming, mapping, and categorizing sample polymers, such as nucleic acid sequences, are provided. An estimation of the fraction of first and second polymers in a sample of polymers can be calculated by inputting a first hybridization value indicative of hybridization affinity of the sample of polymers to polymers probes that are complementary to the first polymer and inputting a second hybridization value indicative of hybridization affinity of the sample of polymers to polymers probes that are complementary to the second polymer. The estimation of the fraction of the first and second polymers in the sample of polymers can then be calculated by dividing the first hybridization value by a sum of the first and second hybridization values. Estimations of the fractions of alleles in a sample can be clustered to form a fraction pattern usable for identifying, confirming, mapping, and genotyping sample nucleic acids.

Abstract: A media manager provides data flow management and other services for client applications on devices coupled together within a network. Preferably, these devices are coupled together within an IEEE 1394-1995 serial bus network. A device control module is generated for each available device for providing an abstraction for all of the capabilities and requirements of the device including the appropriate control protocol, physical connections and connection capabilities for the device. The media manager also manages the flow and format of data transfers between the devices on the network. Through an interface, a user accesses the media manager and enters functions which are to be completed using the devices coupled together on the network. If the appropriate devices are available, the media manager controls and manages the completion of the requested task. If the appropriate devices are not available, but the required subdevices are available in multiple devices, the media manager forms a virtual device from subdevices in multiple devices in order to complete the requested task. Once the appropriate devices and subdevices are assigned to a task, the media manager determines if the data to be transmitted needs to be converted from one format into another format. If necessary, the media manager will also control the format conversion during the data transfer operation. The media manager also provides network enumeration and registry searching capabilities for client applications to find available services, physical devices and virtual devices.
