Title: Optical detection in a multi-channel bio-separation system
Inventor: LIU MING-SUN
IPC: G01N21/64
Filed: 2002-01-28
Abstract: A multi-channel bio-separation detection method and apparatus in which a single detector is coupled to a plurality of radiation sources, in a one detector/many radiation sources configuration. Each radiation source directs radiation at one detection zone of a single separation channel, and a single detector is applied to detect light emissions from the detection zones of several separation channels. The light sources direct radiation at the detection zones in a predetermined sequence and further in a cyclic manner, with the detector output synchronized to the light sources by a controller. Bio-separation may be conducted simultaneously in all the channels in parallel, with detection time-staggered and/or time multiplexed with respect to the light sources. In one embodiment, low cost light emitting diodes may be used as light sources. In another aspect, the detection scheme is configured for radiation induced fluorescence detection in a multi-channel capillary electrophoresis instrument.

Title: System and method for improved searching on the internet or similar networks and especially improved metanews and/or improved automatically generated newspapers
Inventor: MAYER YARON
IPC: G06F16/9532
Filed: 2003-09-29
Abstract: Google has recently made available at http://news.google.com an automated "newspaper", which searches continuously about 4,500 news sources, and lets users view automatically generated headlines in a few general areas or lets users search for news by keywords. The automatic determination of which news items or news stories are most important is done by 3 main criteria: In how many sources the news item appeared, how important are the news sources in which it appeared, and how close it is to the top in each of these news sources. However, many problems still remain, such as for example: a. The choice of a single main news source and a single image for each item seems arbitrary to the user and limits the user. b. If the user clicks on the "related items" link for that item the user always gets a linear list of typically hundreds or even more than a thousand links to related news items, sorted either by relevance or by time, however, the new list is now without any images and without any clustering, so that many times news stories that are about the same event or even identical, may appear at different positions in the list of related links, and various other news items may appear between them and are typically also dispersed in various places. This makes it vary hard for the user to take advantage efficiently of the list of related items. The present invention solves the above problem by creating recursive clustering, so that preferably at any level in the tree the user can preferably either choose a specific news item from the cluster or from the shown sub-clusters or continue in the tree. Another improvement is that searching the Meta News by keywords can generate an automatic newspaper in a way similar to the original automatically generated newspaper. Many additional improvements to the concept of automated newspapers and/or news MetaSearch are also shown. Other improvements are suggested for improved shareware MetaSearch and for improved Web pages search.

Abstract: The invention shows the method to create a high accuracy topographical scale model for the purpose of science by using multi-layered/laminated materials. The invention is based on and involves the following steps:      The geometry and the data of terrain are measured, collected, and recorded;      The data is entered into a computer and design components are added, if needed; Based on these data a three-dimensional surface is created;      A block of multi-layered/laminated materials made of a combination of veneers, or machinable dividers/layers, laminated one on the top of another, is constructed.        Based on the three-dimensional surface, a program for a C.N.C machine is generated;      Based on the program, the C.N.C. machine cuts/removes the excess material from the block of multi-layered materials.      The three-dimensional surface, contour lines, elevations, outlines, and edges are then exposed automatically and are easy visually measurable.

Title: Multifunctional periodic cellular solids and the method of making the same
Inventor: WADLEY HAYDN N G
IPC: E04C2/34
Filed: 2002-06-06
Abstract: Methods of making truss-based periodic cellular solids that have improved structural properties and multifunctional design. Many materials (metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, composites and even semiconductors) can be shaped into cellular, truss-like architectures with open, closed or mixed types of porosity and then very uniformly arranged in controlled, three-dimensional space-filling arrays. The truss-like elements do not necessarily have a constant cross-section, nor are they necessarily straight or solid throughout (they could be hollow). Their cross sections can be circular, square, triangular, I-beam or other shapes of interest depending on multifunctional needs. When bonded together by solid state, liquid phase, pressing or other methods at points of contact, a cellular structure of highly repeatable cell geometry and few imperfections results. The bonds hold the truss elements together in a desired configuration, allow load to be efficiently transferred amongst them and make the resulting structure significantly more rigid when bent, compressed or sheared. These constructed cellular solids offer a broad range of multifunctional structural uses with a tremendous freedom for choosing the truss type, orientation and distribution. Multiple materials can be intermixed.
