Title: High throughput assay system
Inventor: HRYSHKO LARRY
IPC: G01N33/487
Filed: 2003-10-09
Abstract: A device and a method that permits rapid application of experimental solutio ns to both (i.e. intracellular and extracellular) surfaces of a membrane patch is described. In one embodiment, this is accomplished by mounting a membrane patch on a hole through the side of a hollow tube such that one surface can be readily perfused on the outside of the tube while simultaneously perfusing t he inside of the tube. Thus, by measuring changes in membrane traffic using any of a variety of means known in the art, it is possible to determine the effe ct of test compounds presented to the intracellular and/or extracellular surfac e on membrane traffic. As can be seen, the instant device and method have the advantage of allowing both sides of the membrane to be accessed simultaneously, as described below. This is in contrast to existing patch clamp techniques where only a single membrane surface is readily accessible< /SDOAB>

Patent CA-2504841-A1 (CA)
Title: Transport format data transmission
Inventor: SEBIRE BENOIST
IPC: H04Q7/22
Filed: 2002-11-07
Abstract: In a flexible layer one (403) of a GERAN transmitter device, a TFCI, which indicates a particular combination of cyclic redundancy check, channel coding and rate matching, is generated by a TFCI generating process (412) using information from the medium access control layer. The TFCI is coded by a coding process (413), and inserted into the data stream by a TFCI insertion process (414). Each code has more bits than the corresponding TFCI, and identifies uniquely the TFCI. The coded TFCI is spread across the pre-interleaved block with portions placed in fixed positions in each burst.  Interleaving is then performed by an interleaver (411). The coded TFCI used with a half-rate channel is the central segment of the coded TFCI used in the corresponding full-rate channel. The additional loss is so small as to be insignificant, but the FER performance is significantly improved, compared to using the full-rate codes, as a result of the increased payload of the content data bits. In half-rate mode, the amount of coded TFCI data gives rise to a ratio of the performance of the coding of the transport format combination data to the performance of the coded content data which is at a similar level to the ratio in the full-rate mode.

Title: Procede pour optimiser l'ecorcage des grumes dans une ecorceuse a tambour
Inventor: NIINIMAEKI JOUKO
IPC: B27L1/02
Filed: 2003-12-17
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant d'optimiser l'écorçage des grumes dans une écorceuse à tambour, et plus particulièrement de grumes de dimensions sensiblement identiques et de même essence. Ce procédé vise à minimiser les pertes de bois par une sélection des paramètres de fonctionnement de l'écorceuse à tambour faisant que le degré d'écorçage des grumes reste dans les limites acceptables. La quantité d'écorce demeurant sur les grumes débitées par l'écorceuse ainsi que la quantité de grumes endommagées parmi les grumes débitées font l'objet de mesures. Non seulement la quantité d'écorce demeurant sur les grumes se maintient à un niveau acceptable, mais la proportion de grumes endommagées reste aussi basse que possible de façon que le niveau de remplissage du tambour d'écorçage puisse baisser dès qu'on constate une augmentation de la proportion de grumes endommagées.
