Patent CA-2671936-A1 (CA)
Title: Energy absorbing structures
Inventor: FINNEY IAN ANTONY
IPC: B60R21/34
Filed: 2007-11-27
Abstract: An energy absorbing structure (10) comprises a body (12) of material such as a foamed polyurethane or polystyrene. The body (12) is covered by a cover (14). The body (12) is relatively brittle, as compared with the cover member (14). An impact from a body (30) results in cracks appearing preferentially in the body (12), rather than in the cover member (14). The cracks (34) propagate through the body (12) to absorb energy from the impact.

Title: Surgical technique and tools for use in treatment of male urinary incontinence
Inventor: DE LEVAL JEAN
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2007-10-29
Abstract: A transobturator technique was developed for treating male urinary incontinence. This approach helped to design specific instruments to pass around the ischio-pubic branches of the male pelvis from inside to outside (i.e from the suburethral space to the thigh fold). The inside-out transobturator sling technique uses specific instruments and a polypropylene mesh with two arms that are passed inside to outside through the obturator foramens, pulled for compressing the bulbar urethra upward, and tied to each other across the midline. The mesh passes around the ischio-pubic branch before being tied under the bulbar urethra where it brings tension and support.

Patent CA-2699717-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DE BOER MICHEL
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 2008-09-19
Abstract: When a device is switched off, all messages for that device are stored in different distributed service centres. For example, the message from user A may be stored in SMSC A  and a message from user B in SMSC B where both subscribers and respective SMSCs can even belong to different networks. When the device is switched on again it notifies its presence to the network (performed by the MSC indicating this to the HLR). As a result of this alert, different service centres that have messages pending for that device will be notified that the device has come on-line again (performed by the HLR notifying SMSC A and SMSC  B).  Instead of directly sending out all messages, as in the prior art, each service centre instead schedules the messages in an internal queue for delivery according to a local control scheme, which achieves synchronised delivery from multiple distributed SMSCs even though there is no centralised control. Each service centre maps the 'age' of the message on its time axis as the time-to-deliver the message to the device. The deliveries are then sent out according to the derived schedule. As independent service centres all will base their decisions on the same length of the delivery schedule and same maximum retention time, the message deliveries of the different service centres will be interleaved with one another.  This ensures that for significant time differences, messages from different service centres will still arrive in order at the device.
