Abstract: A optical storage disk (100)provides multiple logical disks (106,108)without the need to physically alter the structure of the optical storage disk. According to one example embodiment of the present invention, a dual-layer (102-104)data disk is adapted to store data in each of two layers readable by an optical disk reader. A first region (106A-106B) of the disk includes data recorded for a first logical disk, and a second region (108A-108B)is adapted to store data for a second logical disk, and the first and second regions are located on the two layers. Each of the data logical disks includes a lead-in region (106A-108A)and a lead-out region (106A-108D)and for data (106B,108B)therebetween traversing each of the two layers. The lead-out region of the first logical disk (106D)stores pointing data (107)which points to the lead-in region (108A)of second logical disk, and the logical disks are not necessarily physically contiguous.

Abstract: Prior to welding a shrink wrapping tube(7) is pushed over one of the steel tubes(2), then the tube ends are welded together and an epoxy coating applied to the welding zone(3). Adhesive(14) is then applied to the welding zone as far as the ends of the tube insulation layer(6) on both sides of the weld. The shrink wrap tube is moved along the tube until it covers the welding zone and the adhesive layer. Heat shrinking of the wrapping tube onto the welding zone forces adhesive out of the wrapping tube and distributes it over the epoxy coating.  Tube ends are cleaned and the welding zone is heated before applying epoxy resin, preferably by inductive or conductive methods. Epoxy resin(12) and adhesive(14) layers are applied as powders which are blown through screen openings(8) by a gas(16), preferably oxygen or nitrogen, warmed to 30-60degreesC. Epoxy resin and/or adhesive powder have a particle diameter of 10-20 microns. Powder can also be applied by fluid bed coating. Final thickness of the epoxy resin layer is 10-100 microns, preferably 50 microns. Epoxy resin and adhesive may be applied simultaneously. An Independent claim is included for the construction of insulation over a welded joint between insulated, triple layer corrosion-protected steel tubes which comprises a shrink wrap tube covering adhesive and epoxy resin in the weld area..

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for in vitro creation of
molecular libraries evolution of protein function. Particularly, it relates to
variability and modification of protein function by shuffling polynucleotide
sequence segments. A protein of desired characteristics can be obtained by
incorporating variant peptide regions (variant motifs) into defined peptide
regions (scaffold sequence). The variant motifs can be obtained from parent
DNA which has been subjected to mutagenesis to create a plurality of
differently mutated derivatives thereof or they can be obtained from in vivo
sequences. These variant motifs can then be incorporated into a scaffold
sequence and the resulting coded protein screened for desired
characteristics. This method is ideally used for obtaining antibodies with
desired characteristics by isolating individual CDR DNA sequences and
incorporating them into a scaffold which may, for example, be from a
totally different antibody.

Abstract: A method of processing information in a tire pressure monitoring system
includes the steps of: establishing a reference temperature; determining a
pressure warning threshold at the reference temperature; measuring gauge
pressure and gauge temperature within a tire cavity; correcting the gauge
pressure to a filtered pressure value at the reference temperature using the
Ideal Gas Law; and comparing the filtered pressure value against the pressure
warning threshold to determine the necessity for a warning signal. In an
advanced form of the invention, the method includes determining a pressure
leak rate; predicting the time interval that the filtered pressure value will cross
the pressure warning threshold at the leak rate and generating progressive
warnings to the driver over the time interval. Fuzzy logic is used to quantify the
probability of a warning state for each data point, allow for measurement error;
and report the state of maximum probability to minimize the occurrence of false
warning. A warning utility function is derived based upon a combination of the
filtered pressure and leak rate.

Abstract: A needleless luer access connector is disclosed having a septum (20) disposed in a housing (10). The septum (20) has a proximal portion (21) with a cross section, a medial portion (22) with a cross section smaller than the cross section of the proximal portion (12), and a distal portion (23). A longitudinal slit (25) extends through the septum (20) from the proximal portion (21) to the distal portion (23). The septum (20) and housing (10) are designed so that septum (20) will not be rotated or removed from the housing (10) when the connector is accessed by a male luer taper. In addition, the septum (2) and housing (10) are designed to bias the slit (25) at the distal portion (23) closed and so a male luer connector does not have to extend completely through the distal portion (23) to open the slit (25) at the distal portion (23). Finally, the septum (20) and housing (10) are designed to minimize the amount of dead space in the connector when accessed with a male luer taper.
