Abstract: An apparatus for selection of characters to be displayed on a display screen. Has input actuators with associated fields containing graphical symbols representing the characters. The user is guided during selection of a character via the display. The selection procedure is sufficiently simple to allow a user to memorise the steps needed in order to select a specific character. Uses a limited number of actuators, and a character is selected using a sequence of actuations. Actuations may e.g. be keystrokes or movement by tactile pointing means on a touch sensitive device. Preferably, a character is selected by drawing one or two linear segments on a touch sensitive device. The displayed graphical symbols are preferably rearranged upon actuation. Suitable for use in electronic devices, in particular hand held devices having a small display screen, such as communication equipment, such as portable phones, e.g. mobile phones, or computers.

Abstract: A heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) device (104) which includes both heating and cooling operating modes provides an easy-to-use interface (110) for selecting the operating parameters of the device (104). The interface (110) allows the input of a setpoint temperature at which the HVAC device (104) conditions the ambient temperature of a space (102). A mode switch-over algorithm (200) uses the .setpoint temperature, the sensed temperature from the conditioned space, and prestored threshold values that depend on the device's operating capacities, to determine when to change the device between heating and cooling modes. Also, within each of the respective modes, a heating (300) or cooling (400) algorithm controls the engaging and disengaging of the heating and cooling elements of the device (104) to maintain the temperature of the conditioned space (102) within a desired comfort zone. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention provides a method for diagnosing Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, using genetic markers that are implicated in severe, early-onset Crohn's Disease (CD). The invention also provides coding sequence mutations in the OCTN1 gene that significantly reduces its ability to transport the organic cation carnitine. The invention further provides mutations in the promoter region of OCTN2 (that downregulates both basal transcription and transcription induced either by heat shock or arachidonic acid. This transcription difference is apparently due to the disruption of a binding site for heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF 1). A haplotype of two mutations is found in Crohn's Disease (CD) patients. Together, these mutations reduce cellular ability to respond to metabolic stress in inflamed tissue and may further be involved in the clearance of toxic substances from cells. The invention provides for the identification and use of these polynucleotides and encoded polypeptide sequences as targets for the development of therapeutic compounds intended to be useful in the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and inflammation generally.

Abstract: A percussive sound contains both harmonic and non-harmonic frequency spectral content. To reproduce a particular percussive sound, such as the sound of a drum or cymbal or hand clap, for example, the harmonic and non-harmonic content are determined empirically. Also, and tendency of the harmonic content to change over time, and the temporal aspects of attack, sustain, and decay are likewise determined empirically. These attributes are represented in the invention in a percussive sound file which includes a harmonic content profile (502), noise shape filter (504), Doppler shift profile (506), and a time wave shaping profile (508). The harmonic content profile is used by an FM generator (114) to generate a frequency modulated signal (116). The noise shape profile is used by a noise generator (134) to generate and shape the non-harmonic spectral content. While the sound is being generated, the Doppler shift profile is used to adjust the base frequency of the FM signal. The harmonic and non-harmonic signals are scaled (142, 144) and summed (146). The summed signal is then shaped (150) in time to substantially simulate the attack, sustain, and decay properties of the sound. The shaped, summed signal is then played by an audio circuit and converted to an acoustic signal.
