Abstract: A method for setting up signaling connection between an RNC and an SGSN
in a mobile communication system is provided. Upon receiving a service request for a
particular MBMS service from a particular UE, an RNC determines whether it is
necessary to set up new signaling connection for the particular MBMS service, and sets
up signaling connection with an SGSN according to the determination result. The SGSN,
if it desires to stop the particular MBMS service, sends a service stop request to the
RNC over the signaling connection set for the particular MBMS service. The RNC then
instructs at least one UE providing the particular MBMS service to stop the particular
MBMS service in response to the service stop request.

Abstract: Described is a system, method, and data structure that enables an
executable assembly associated with a subclass to be generated from a subclass
definition within a markup document. In accordance with the invention, the
subclass definition is written based on a schema. The schema may be XML-based.
The schema includes a subclass tag for defining a name for the subclass. The name
is associated with a type for an object that is instantiated when the executable
assembly executes. The schema further includes one or more hints, such as for
specifying a programming language to compile the subclass definition, for
specifying a superclass from which the subclass derives, for specifying actions to
perform when the object becomes instantiated, for creating an event definition and
event handler for the subclass, and for specifying a property that becomes a member
within the object when the object is instantiated.

Abstract: It is known that reforming implantable defibrillator
capacitors at least partially restores and preserves their
charging efficiency. An industry-recognized standard is to
reform implantable capacitors by pulse discharging the
connected electrochemical cell about once every three months
throughout the useful life of the medical device. A Li/SVO
cell typically powers such devices. The present invention
relates to methodologies for significantly minimizing, if
not entirely eliminating, the occurrence of voltage delay
and irreversible Rdc growth in the about 35% to 70% DOD
region by subjecting Li/SVO cells to novel discharge
regimes. At the same time, the connected capacitors in the
cardiac defibrillator are reformed to maintain them at their
rated breakdown voltages.
