Abstract: Method and apparatus for cyclic ventricular pacing starting at a rate just above the intrinsic atrial firing rate (overdrive pacing), followed by relaxation to a rate just below the intrinsic atrial firing rate (ventricular escape). The method and apparatus can be applied to one or both ventricles, and can utilize one or more electrodes per ventricle. The electrode(s) can be applied to inner or outer ventricular surfaces. Relaxation protocols as a function of time can be linear, curvilinear to include exponential, or mixtures thereof. Furthermore, relaxation protocols can include one or more periods of time during which the pacing rate is held constant. Typically, the average ventricular pacing rate using this invention will be slightly greater than the intrinsic atrial firing rate, though alternate embodiments that encompass average ventricular pacing rates that are equal to or slightly less than the intrinsic atrial firing rate are also envisioned. Application of this method and apparatus to a heart in need thereof will produce a heart with an optimally minimized energy output requirement.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for therapeutically treating an animal, including a human, for psychosomatic, depressive and neuropsychiatric diseases, such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, schizophrenia, epilepsy, spasm and chronic pain. Administration of a suitable attractin inhibitor causes the reduction of activity in the enzyme attraction or in isoforms thereof in the brain of mammals and leads as a causal consequence to a reduced degradation of the neuropeptide Y (NPY) and similar substrates. Such treatment will result in a reduction or delay in the decrease of the concentration of functionally active neuronal NPY (1-36). As a consequence of the resulting enhanced stability of the endogenous NPY (1-36), NPY activity is prolonged thereby resulting among other things in functionally active NPY Y1 receptor activity thereby facilitating antidepressive, anxiolytic, analgesic, t antihypertension and other neurological effects.

Title: Lawful interception in a communication network
Filed: 2011-01-05
Abstract: A method and apparatus for use in a communication network. A node receives voice data relating to a voice sample of a subject and an identity of the subject. The voice data is associated with the identity of the subject and stored. A speech sample is subsequently received from a traffic node, the speech sample having been obtained from a telecommunications session. A comparison is made between the stored voice data and the speech sample, and a determination is made to check whether the speech sample is likely to belong to the subject. If so, then a message identifying the subject is sent towards an LEMF node. The LEMF node can then initiate lawful interception of the telecommunications session. The node allows a target subject to be identified by a voice sample, which makes it much more difficult for a target subject to avoid lawful interception by, for example, using a different device to make a call.

Title: Floating point adder
Filed: 2011-06-29
Abstract: Floating point adder circuitry 16, 18, 20 is provided with far-path circuitry 18 and near-path circuitry 20. The far-path circuitry utilises a count of trailing zeros TZ and a difference in the input operand exponents to form respective suffix values which are concatenated with the mantissas of the input addends and serve when summed to generate a carry out taking the place of a conventionally calculated sticky bit. Within the near-path, minimum value circuitry 46 is used to calculate the lower of a leading zeros count of the intermediate mantissa produced in a subtraction and the larger of the input operand exponent values such that a left shift applied to the intermediate mantissa value is not able to produce a invalid floating point result due to applying a left shift to remove leading zeros that is too larger and accordingly corresponds to an exponent which cannot be validly represented.
