Granted: 2013-04-09
Abstract: Dans le cadre de cette invention et, afin d'évaluer la qualité de service au niveau de l'application, une fonction (A) est instituée, servant à mener à bien des sessions au niveau de l'application sur ce réseau (N). L'activation de cette fonction (A) permet de mener à bien ces sessions, de procéder à une évaluation (F) et également de stocker, H<SB>K</SB> dans un ensemble de points (S¿1?, . . ., S¿k?, S¿n?) du réseau N des données représentatives du comportement de celui-ci. L'occurrence éventuelle de situations critiques en rapport avec la qualité est vérifiée (B)et, en cas de survenue de cette situation critique, un signal de déclenchement est produit. La production de ce signal de déclenchement a pour effet que les données représentatives du comportement du réseau, sont évaluées et stockées dans l'ensemble mentionné de points du réseau (N), et recueillies d'une façon centralisée (H). Les données ainsi recueillies sont représentatives de la qualité de service de bout en bout du réseau (N) proprement dit. L'invention concerne également une application préférentielle à des réseaux à commutation de paquets, tel qu'un réseau de téléphonie mobile de type GPRS ou UMTS.

Title: Polyamino acids functionalized by at least one hydrophobic group and the therapeutic applications thereof
Inventor: ANGOT STEPHANIE
IPC: A61K9/51
Filed: 2003-07-23
Granted: 2012-03-20
Abstract: The invention relates to novel materials based on biodegradable polyamino acids that are useful for vectorizing active principle/s (AP). The aim of the invention is to supply a new polymeric raw material that is used for vectorizing AP and optimally fulfills all requirements concerning biocompatibility, biodegradability, the ability to be easily associated with numerous active principles or solubilize said active principles and to release the active principles in vivo. Said polymers can also be readily and economically transformed into particles vectorizing active principles according to the grafting rate of the hydrophobic groups, said particles being able to form stable aqueous colloidal suspensions. Said aim is achieved by the inventive amphiphile polyamino acids comprising aspartic and/or glutamic units that carry grafts which encompass at least one hydrophobic unit and are linked to the aspartic and/or glutamic units via a rotula containing two amide functions, more particularly via a spacer of the lysine or ornithine type. Said amide functions ensure better stability during hydrolysis than comparable products known in prior art. The invention also relates to new pharmaceutical, cosmetic, dietetic, or phytosanitary compositions based on the inventive polyamino acids.

Abstract: In a write-once recording medium, an optimum updating of the management information and a simple matching processing are to be achieved. To this end, in a system of a write-once medium, rendered accessible at random by employing the write/ non-write indicating information, the management information, including a space bitmap and the last recording position information (LRA) indicating the last position of the recorded user data, is updated on the disc responsive to the generation or extinction of a gap (unrecorded area) in a region ahead of the LRA. The state of matching between the management information on the disc and the recording state of the user data is confirmed, responsive to the updating of the management information on the disc by the generation or extinction of the gap in the management information, by detecting whether or not the gap in the management information (gap indicated by the space bitmap) or the LRA is coincident with the gap or the LRA on the actual disc. Lacking the matching, the management information is updated to match the space bitmap or the LRA

Title: Methods for fluid separations, and devices capable of separating fluids
Inventor: TEGROTENHUIS WARD E
IPC: F28D9/00
Filed: 2004-01-26
Granted: 2012-05-29
Abstract: A laminated, multiphase condensor having wicking structures and gas flow channels is described. During operation, a fluid mixture passes in through fluid inlet (2) into header (4) where it is distributed into gas flow channels (6 and 6'). Coolant passes through elongated coolant slots (8) in cooling channel layer (10). The material surrounding the coolant slots (8) are the cooling channel walls. As the fluid mixture passes through the gas flow channels (6 and 6'), heat from the fluid is removed primary heat exchange surface (13) (this surface also is an exterior surface of a cooling channel wall) and a liquid condenses from the fluid mixtu~re, flows into wick (11), through optional pore throat (12) and into liquid flow channel (14). The figure is an exploded view and shows a separation between the wick and the pore throat; however, in typical operation the optional pore throat should contact the wick. The device can work under the influence of gravity, but, more typically, sucti is applied to pull liquid out through liquid outlet (16) . In a device with multiple liquid flow channels, an optional footer (not shown) may carry flow from multiple liquid flow channels. Gas from the gas flow channels (6 and 6') may pass through an optional gas footer and out through gas outlet (20).

Granted: 2014-04-22
Abstract: A multimode fiber coupler has a structure in which a plurality of tapered pump fibers are coupled laterally to a multi-clad fiber, such as a double clad fiber (DCF). Such coupler is produced by first forming a plurality of tapered pump fibers and positioning them around the multi-clad fiber, thus forming a fiber bundle. Then, the fiber bundle is twisted and fused so that the input pump fibers converge towards a waist and then diverge from it. The diverging portions of the pump fibers may be removed from the structure. Also, at the waist, the structure may be cleaved and the portion with the converging pump fibers is then spliced with a multi-clad fiber which is similar or identical to the one in the middle of the bundle.

IPC: H04Q3/72
Filed: 2005-04-20
Granted: 2012-11-27
Abstract: The invention helps reduce costs for international calls. When an international call is detected a database is queried (202). Dependent on the results of the database query, the call is either routed using intentional routing (204) or the call is routed using an internet protocol (IP) gateway (206) that completes the call. The subscriber/caller is identified by his/her calling number, e.g, mobile number. This number is used to verify whether the caller has access to special services, e.g, LCR when using a mobile telephone rather than a telephone within a corporate network. The verification of the callers number is performed by an Intelligent Network (IN SCP 616) using a database (618).
