Abstract: A system for building collaborative software agents is provided with a s et of editors (305) for capturing data for installation in the individual agent s. The collaborative software agents will normally form a community, including some standard agents (315), provided by the system, and will collaborate to provi de functionality in a domain selected by the user. Each collaborative software agent built by the system is provided with co-ordination strategies, selected by t he user, and represented by a co-ordination graph (310). A single collaborative software agent can be provided with more than one coordination strategy and is capabl e of running more than one coordination strategy simultaneously with different agents of the system. An exception handler flags an exception during use of the collaborative agents in the relevant domain when the value of a variable for an agent conflicts with a relevant constraint. Alternatively, the exception handler flags an exception when the resource and time constraints cannot be met by allocation of tasks between the collaborative agents. Communities of softwar e agents built within a system might be used to launch and/or manage telecommunications services or to control a chemical process, for example.</ SDOAB>

Title: Method of three dimensional laser engraving
Inventor: WILLIAMS MARK S C
IPC: B44C1/22
Filed: 2000-05-31
Granted: 2005-03-08
Abstract: A method for laser engraving a three-dimensional image into a workpiece includes providing a plurality of pieces of artwork which form a composite three-dimensional image. Each piece of artwork corresponds to a particular layer of material to be removed from the workpiece. The pieces of artwork are sequentially read by laser system program software which translates the lines on each piece of artwork into signals corresponding to laser paths. The signals are received by the laser system control assembly for directing the laser beam along the workpiece in a layer-by-layer relationship corresponding to the sequentially read pieces of artwork. The use of the plurality of pieces of artwork allows for a layer-by-layer removal of material in the workpiece such that the power of the laser need not be continuously adjusted according to the depth of penetration into the workpiece. The method allows for various engraved images to be presented having various sloped surfaces therein.

Abstract: According to the invention, the heating furnace has a combustion chamber (2) and heat accumulating bodies which surround said chamber.      Each first heat accumulating body (3, 4; 27) is arranged parallel to the respective wall (5, 6; 24) of the combustion chamber (2) at a first distance.      Each second heat accumulating body (12, 14; 25) is also placed parallel to the respective outer side of the first heat accumulating body at a second distance. A first air canal (16, 17; 28) is obtained as a result of the first distance, and a second air canal (15, 18, 26) is obtained in each of the configurations as a result of the second distance. The air in the first air canal is heated by the walls of the combustion chamber, ascends, cools on the surrounding heat accumulating bodies and descends downwards in the second air canal to the heat accumulating bodies during additional delivery of heat. Afterwards, the cooled air returns to the first air canal and the described cyclic flow begins again in the inventive heat exchanger.

Title: Antitachycardial pacing
Inventor: MOWER MORTON M
IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 2000-01-14
Granted: 2008-10-28
Abstract: Protocols for antitachycardial pacing in-cluding biphasic stimulation administered at, or just above, the diastolic depolarization the shold potential; biphasic or conventional stim-ulation initiated at, or just above, the di-astolic depolarization threshold potential, re-duced, upon capture, to below threshold; and biphasic or conventional stimulation adminis-tered at a level set just below the diastolic depolarization threshold potential. These pro-tocols result in reliable cardiac capture with a lower stimulation level, thereby causing less damage to the heart, extending battery life, causing less pain to the patient and having greater therapeutic effectiveness. In those pro-tocols using biphasic cardiac pacing, a first and second stimulation phase is administered. The first stimulation phase has a predefined polarity, amplitude and duration. The sec-ond stimulation phase also has a predefined polarity, amplitude and duration. The two phases are applied sequentially. Contrary to current trought, anodal stimulation is first ap-plied and followed by cathodal stimulation. In this fashion, pulse conduction through the cardiac muscle is improved together with the increase in contractility.

Title: Wireless push-to-talk internet broadcast
Inventor: JACOBS PAUL E
IPC: H04Q/
Filed: 1999-12-14
Granted: 2008-01-29
Abstract: A wireless telephone (302) digitizes the voice of the user in response to the depression of a push-to-talk button (110), either phys-ical or virtual. It sends the digitized voice, in data mode, to a base station (308). The base station places the data, through the In-ternet, or an Intranet or Extranet, on a server (312). Other wireless phones (304-306) re-cover the data from the server through the same (308) or different (310) base station, through the Internet, Intranet, or Extranet, and convert the data back to digitized voice. The base stations transmit the digitized voice to other wireless telephones (306), which convert them back to voice in response to the recogni-tion of voice frames on the data channel by the CODEC manager software. Networked computers (314) may be configured to emu-late a combined base station and wireless telephone. The server can dynamically designate any wireless telephone (or landline emulation) as the broadcaster, and can dynamically con-figure any set of telephones/emulations as the receivers of the broadcast.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de préparation de la mélamine à partir de l'urée au moyen d'un processus haute pression, selon lequel on obtient de la mélamine solide en transférant la mélamine en fusion vers une cuve de dilatation dans laquelle elle est refroidie par l'inclusion d'ammonium. Le gaz ammoniac libre est ajouté à la mélamine en fusion pour produire un mélange gaz / liquide possédant un rapport de masse d'au moins 0,01. Le mélange en deux phases est ensuite pulvérisé au moyen d'un dispositif de pulvérisation dans la cuve de dilatation caractérisée par un environnement d'ammoniac à faible pression. La mélamine en fusion est refroidie et solidifiée par la dilatation et l'évaporation de l'ammoniac incorporé; on obtient ainsi de la poudre de mélamine. Ainsi, on transforme directement la mélamine en fusion en poudre de mélamine, après quoi on continue de refroidir la poudre de mélamine et l'on fait baisser la pression de l'ammoniac.

Title: Water filter cartridge replacement system for a refrigerator
Inventor: SENNER KURT C
IPC: F25D23/00
Filed: 2002-04-05
Granted: 2010-07-27
Abstract: A water filtering system for a refrigerator determines a need for a filter change by timing the period of actuation of at least one valve used to regulate the flow of filtered water to both a water dispenser and an ice maker. Based on a known flow rate, a volume of filtered water associated with the duration of valve actuation is calculated. A summing device determines an accumulated, filtered water volume. When the accumulated, filtered water volume reaches or exceeds a threshold value, an indicator is used to signal that the water filter needs to be replaced. As the water filtering system of the invention is capable of being operated without a water filter in place, a switch assembly is incorporated to sense the presence of the water filter and the system only senses the valve actuation time when the filter is in place. In addition, provisions are made to reset the accumulated, filtered water volume upon replacement of the water filter.
