Abstract: L'invention concerne des prothèses à valves constituées de valves réticulées (102, 104, 106). Au moins une des valves présente une forme correspondant à une surface profilée. Ces valves sont fixées individuellement aux prothèses. De plus, dans certains modes de réalisation, les valves ne comprennent pas de tissu natif. Les procédés permettant de former des prothèses de valvule cardiaque en tissu peuvent consister à assembler une pluralité de valves conçues pour ouvrir et fermer la valvule en réponse à des différences de pression. Chacune de ces valves est préformée individuellement lorsqu'elle réticulée au moins partiellement au contact d'une surface profilée. Les valves réticulées peuvent être sélectionnées et associées individuellement afin d'être assemblées dans une valvule. Généralement, le tissu, lorsqu'il est réticulé, présente une taille et une forme qui correspondent approximativement à la taille d'une seule valve de valvule cardiaque humaine.

Abstract: A device for scanning a record carrier has a head for scanning a track for reading and/or writing information. A disc scheduler controls receiving requests for accessing the record carrier, the requests including streaming requests regarding real time information and auxiliary requests (44) regarding auxiliary information. The disc scheduler reduces power consumption of the device by switching the scanning means to a stand-by mode when no requests are pending and switching the scanning means to an operational mode when a request has to be executed. The auxiliary requests are executed in a processing interval (45) in combination with a selected one of the streaming requests. Hence the number of spin-ups of the record carrier is reduced.

Abstract: A movable table for supporting a work piece is allowed
to move on the same plane in arbitrary directions through a table
holding mechanism. Also, a feed within the same plane is
supplied to the movable table by the electromagnetic driving
means. Further, the movable table is stopped by an
electromagnetic braking mechanism at an arbitrary position
within the same plane. The electromagnetic driving means
generates a feed to the movable table by a mutual magnetic effect
between driven magnets and driving coils. The electromagnetic
braking mechanism includes braking magnets and a nonmagnetic
and conductive braking plate. A pair of the braking magnets
and braking plate generates braking force by a magnetic effect
between a magnetic force by an eddy current generated in the
braking plate in accordance with the movement of the movable
table and a magnetic force of the braking magnets.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de gestion et d'exécution de tâches de traitement XML pour cadre indépendant du contexte. Les tâches de traitement XML sont exécutées par un module, désigné sous le nom de moteur XSA, à partir d'un ensemble prédéfini d'instructions sous forme de documents électroniques écrits dans un langage de programmation XML spécifique. Les ensembles d'instructions contiennent des références et commandent l'exécution d'instances de trois classes de modules de traitement, qui exécutent indépendamment une sous-tâche de traitement XML et exécutent conjointement une tâche de traitement XML. Le cadre est découplé de tout contexte d'exécution spécifique, ce qui permet d'appliquer le traitement XML standardisé dans presque toutes les applications désirées. Le langage de programmation spécifique améliore la productivité pour la mise au point de tâches de traitement XML, par rapport aux langages de programmation à usage général, et réduit la nécessité d'écriture d'un code personnalisé pour relier différents types de sous-tâches de traitement XML afin d'exécuter une tâche de traitement XML.

Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide electrophoretic separation methods
and devices that enable the various features of a substrate surface that comes in contact with an
electrophoresis medium to be controlled. 
     The present invention provides methods for electrophoresing substances, which
comprises the steps of:
   (a) adding a substance to be analyzed to an electrophoresis medium retained in a substrate,
whose surface that has come in contact with the electrophoresis medium has been coated with a
polymer membrane; and   (b) adding electrophoretic pressure to the electrophoresis medium.    
     For example, the use of a plasma-polymerized membrane allows the formation of a
membrane with homogeneous quality and thickness on the surface of an arbitrary shape. In
addition, desired characteristics can be conferred on the surface through selection of monomeric
substances. Protein adsorption onto micro-chips can be effectively prevented as well.
