Abstract: La présente invention concerne des dispositifs intravasculaires et des procédés pour réaliser une greffe vasculaire par distension axiale d'un vaisseau sanguin, afin d'induire une croissance dudit vaisseau. Il est avantageux d'implanter ces dispositifs par l'intermédiaire d'un cathéter, ce qui permet d'éviter d'avoir recours à une opération d'implantation plus effractive lorsque l'étirement doit être réalisé in vivo. Le dispositif permettant la distension axiale d'un vaisseau sanguin afin d'induire une croissance dudit vaisseau comprend de préférence un mécanisme d'étirement intravasculaire, qui peut être attaché directement à une partie de lumière interne du vaisseau sanguin, ainsi qu'un système qui permet de faire fonctionner ledit mécanisme d'étirement, afin d'induire la distension axiale du vaisseau. Le mécanisme d'étirement peut comprendre une paire de fils ou d'endoprothèses, qui viennent en prise avec la paroi du vaisseau sanguin. Ledit mécanisme d'étirement peut comprendre un matériau à mémoire de forme.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une technique permettant d'introduire des gènes codant des traits recherchés dans des plantes monocotylédonées et dans des plantes dicotylédonées  et des plantes et des parties de celles-ci produites par la culture de plantes utilisant cette technique. Le durée nécessaire à la production de plantes transgéniques est considérablement raccourcie, tandis que la production de ces plantes transgéniques est considérablement augmentée. Ces augmentations ne dépendent pas de l'utilisation de souches Agrobacterium super-virulentes. Cette invention concerne aussi une technique améliorée de régénération in vitro de plantes monocotylédonées et de plantes dicotylédonées dans un milieu adapté contenant un nouveau régime de régulateur de croissance qui favorise l'élongation cellulaire dans la production de nombreux embryons somatiques qu'on peut régénérer dans des plantes fertiles.

Abstract: A method and system (130) for controlling sensed CPU dynamic
operating characteristics includes the steps of and circuitry for
sensing at least one dynamic CPU operating characteristic (140)
while the CPU operates at a first clock rate (134). The system
(130) determines that a setpoint interrupt condition exists (140)
by virtue of the at least one sensed CPU dynamic operating
characteristic establishing a predetermined relationship relative
to a predetermined setpoint (140) that associates with the at
least one dynamic operating characteristic. In the event that the
setpoint interrupt condition exists, the circuitry and
instructions control (144) the clock rate relative to the first
clock rate. In the event that the setpoint interrupt condition
does not exist, the circuitry and instructions repeat the above
steps of determining the interrupt condition and controlling the
clock rate. The method and system (130) also determine whether the
CPU is in a compute-bound state (142). This operation in
conjunction with a real-time power conservation apparatus and
method (20) is a particularly attractive feature of the present
invention.
