Inventor: TIERNEY MICHAEL J
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 1999-12-06
Abstract: Robotic surgical tools, systems, and methods for preparing for, and performing robotic surgery include a memory (126) mounted on the tool (54). The memory (126) can perform a number of functions when the tool (54) is loaded on the tool manipulator (58). First, the memory can provide a signal verifying that the tool (54) is compatible with that particular robotic system. Secondly, the tool memory (126) may identify the tool-type to the robotic system so that the robotic system can reconfigure its programming. Thirdly, the memory (126) of the tool (54) may indicate tool specific information, including measured calibration offsets indicating misalignment of the tool drive system, tool life data, or the like. This information may be stored in a read only memory (ROM), or in a nonvolatile memory which can be written to only a single time. The invention further provides improved engagement structures for coupling robotic surgical tools with manipulator structures.

Abstract: A direct liquid fuel cell and a method and an apparatus for controlling fuel concentration therein is provided. Fuel cell output current per unit area is sensed to determine if it becomes lowered by more than a certain magnitude and is maintained for a constant time. Fuel cell output voltage is sensed from an initial output voltage just before a point in time when the current per unit area is lowered, to a output voltage, the new output voltage being increased as the current per unit area is lowered and being then maintained at a new level. The new output voltage is compared with a transient voltage sensed between the initial output voltage and the new output voltage. If the transient voltage is equal to or less than the new output voltage, the fuel concentration in a liquid fuel supplied to the fuel cell stack is increased.

Abstract: An improved process for the preparation of 2'-modified nucleosides and 2'-deoxynucleosides, such as, β-L-2'-deoxy-thymidine (LdT), is provided. In particular, the improved process is directed to the synthesis of a 2'-deoxynucleoside that may utilize different starting materials but that proceeds via a chloro-sugar intermediate or via a 2,2' anhydro-1-furanosyl-nucleobase intermediate. Where an 2,2'-anhydro-1-furanosyl base intermediate is utilized, a reducing agent, such as Red-Al, and a sequestering agent, such as 15-crown-5 ether, that cause an intramolecular displacement reaction and formation of the desired nucleoside product in good yields are employed. An alternative process of the present invention utilizes a 2,2'-anhydro-1-furanosyl base intermediate without a sequestering agent to afford 2'-deoxynucleosides in good yields. The compounds made according to the present invention may be used as intermediates in the preparation of other nucleoside analogues, or may be used directly as antiviral and/or antineoplastic agents.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur rechnergestützten Steuerung und/oder Regelung eines technischen Systems. Das Verfahren zeichnet sich durch zwei Schritte aus, nämlich dem Lernen der Dynamik eines technischen Systems mit Hilfe von historischen Daten auf der Basis eines rekurrenten neuronalen Netzes und dem anschließenden Lernen einer optimalen Regelung durch Kopplung des rekurrenten neuronalen Netzes mit einem weiteren neuronalen Netz. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren verwendet ein rekurrentes neuronales Netz mit einer speziellen versteckten Schicht, welche zu einem jeweiligen Zeitpunkt einen ersten versteckten Zustand und einen zweiten versteckten Zustand umfasst. Der erste versteckte Zustand ist dabei mit einer zu lernenden Matrix mit dem zweiten versteckten Zustand gekoppelt. Auf diese Weise kann eine Flaschenhals-Struktur geschaffen werden, indem die Dimension der ersten versteckten Zustände kleiner als die Dimension der zweiten versteckten Zustände oder umgekehrt gewählt wird. Hierdurch wird beim Lernen des Netzwerks stärker die wesentliche autonome Dynamik des technischen Systems berücksichtigt und die Approximationsfähigkeit des Netzwerks verbessert. Die Erfindung hat einen weiten technischen Anwendungsbereich und kann insbesondere für beliebige technische Systeme verwendet werden, um diese Systeme rechnergestützt optimal zu steuern. Ein Anwendungsbereich ist z.B. die Steuerung einer Gasturbine.

Abstract: A reformer substrate for supporting a catalyst in a hydrocarbon reformer, comprising a graded structure that is inhomogeneous either radially, longitudinally, or both. The inhomogeous graded structure components are selected and arranged to maintain the catalyst operating temperature during extended periods of catalytic inactivity. Selection is based primarily on heat capacity and/or thermal loss properties. Generally, the perimeter of the substrate, radially and/or longitudinally comprises a thick wall of high thermal mass materials to reduce conductive and radiated heat loss, and a high thermal capacity material within the substrate to reduce radiated heat loss. Preferred materials are open-cell rigid foams such as zirconia-toughened alumina reticulated foam, for negative thermal loads in endothermic reaction regimes, and zirconia-mullite honeycomb monolith, for positive or neutral thermal loads in exothermic or autothermic reaction regimes.
