Abstract: The media inherent key storing unit 220 prestores an
inherent key Ki, the conversion unit 230 generates an
encrypted inherent key Ji from the inherent key read from the
media inherent key storing unit 220, the random number
generating unit 331 generates a random number R1, the
encryption unit 252 generates an encrypted random number S1,
the decryption unit 333 generates a random number R'1 from
the encrypted random number R1, and the mutual authentication
control unit 334 compares the random number R'1 with the
random number R1 and, if the random number R'1 matches the
random number R1, judges that the memory card 200 is an
authorized device. If the memory card 200 and the memory
card writer have successfully authenticated each other, the
memory card writer encrypts a content using a decrypted
inherent key. If the memory card 200 and the memory card
reader have successfully authenticated each other, the memory
card reader decrypts an encrypted content using the decrypted
inherent key.

Title: Method and apparatus for automatic time and/or lateral gain compensation in B-mode ultrasound imaging
Inventor: MO LARRY Y L
IPC: G06T5/00
Filed: 1999-11-30
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for automating time-gain
compensation (TGC) and lateral-gain compensation (LGC) based on
the B-mode image data. The automatic gain adjustments (6) are aimed
at equalizing the mean signal intensities along the axial (for TGC)
and/or lateral (for LGC) direction of the image, and suppressing any
lateral band (for TGC) and/or sector (for WC) that contains mostly
noise. The automatic TGC/LGC adjustment method is implemented
(16) in software on a digital scanner and uses a noise model of the
entire B-mode processing chain from the beamformer (4) through the
B-mode processor (8) to the back-end video processor (12).

Abstract: An ostomy pouch (10) is defined by a front wall (12) and a rear wall (14) having a
stoma aperture (18). One or more rupturable capsules (24) are carried on a carrier or
intervening wall (44) welded to the front and rear walls at a common weld seam (16).
When desired, a capsule (24) can be ruptured by squeezing, the pouch wall together at
that position, to dispense the contents (for example, a deodorising agent, a disinfectant or
a preservative). In one form, the carrier does not cover the stoma aperture. In another
form, the contents are dispensed on the side facing the front wall (12), and the curtain
(44) shields the stoma aperture (18), to prevent the agent spurting out or contacting the
stoma. In another form, one or more rupturable capsules may be arranged on the front
wall (12) or on the rear wall (14). A plurality of the capsules (24) may contain different
agents if desired. In another form, one or more self-dissolving capsules, for example, of
gelatine, may be introduced into the pouch to dispense the agent in response to
environmental conditions (for example, temperature/humidity) within the pouch.

Abstract: Ce récepteur est pourvu d'au moins deux filtres à fréquence intermédiaire (IF), le premier filtre IF ainsi qu'un second filtre ayant une largeur de bande plus étroite que la première largeur de bande. Ce récepteur est également pourvu d'un commutateur utilisable pour la sélection d'un filtre IF. En cours de fonctionnement, le récepteur, qui mesure l'intensité du signal de canaux adjacents par jusqu'à l'obtention de l'intensité de signal d'un canal souhaité, bascule sur le second filtre IF à bande plus étroite lorsque le rapport intensité de signal du canal/intensité de signal de canaux adjacents est inférieur à un seuil prédéterminé. Ce seuil prédéterminé est arrêté eu égard à la portée de détection et à la présence de perturbation par canaux adjacents. La largeur de bande des filtres du récepteur est également destinée à optimiser les prestations fournies eu égard aux incidences tant de la portée de détection que de la présence de perturbation par canaux adjacents.

Abstract: A system includes a communication module for downloading workspace data (135) from a remote site, an application program interface coupled to the communications module for communicating with a workspace data manager (160) to enable manipulation of the downloaded workspace data and thereby create manipulated data, and a general synchronization module (130) coupled to the communications module for synchronizing the manipulated data with the workspace data (135) stored at the remote site. An instantiator requests the workspace data manager to provide an interface for enabling manipulation of the downloaded workspace data. The workspace data manager may create another instance of the interface or may provide access to its only interface to enable manipulation of the data. A data reader may translate the downloaded workspace data from the format used by the remote site to the format used by the workspace data manager. Upon logout, the de-instantiator synchronizes the data with the global server and deletes workspace data. The system handles the situation where the data stored at the remote site has not changed therefore includes the downloaded data, and the situation the data stored at the remote site has been modified and therefore is different than the downloaded data.

Abstract: A method for reducing erosion of a mask while etching a feature in a first layer underlying the mask is disclosed. The first layer is disposed on a substrate, with the substrate being positioned on a chuck within in a plasma processing chamber. The method includes flowing an etchant source gas into the plasma processing chamber and forming a plasma from the etchant source gas. The method further includes pulsing an RF power source at a predefined pulse frequency to provide pulsed RF power to the chuck. The pulsed RF power has a first frequency and alternates between a high power cycle and a low power cycle at the pulse frequency The pulse frequency is selected to be sufficiently low to cause polymer to be deposited on the mask during the low power cycle.

Filed: 1999-04-23
Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à des séquences nucléotidiques, et notamment à des étiquettes de séquences exprimées (EST), des sondes oligonucléotidiques, des polypeptides, des vecteurs antagonistes et agonistes et des cellules hôtes exprimant les polypeptides PRO201, PRO308 ou PRO309, et des immunoadhésions et des anticorps dirigés contre ces polypeptides. L'invention se rapporte également à des compositions et à un procédé permettant le diagnostic et le traitement de la croissance cellulaire et de la prolifération néoplasique chez les mammifères, en particulier chez l'homme. Cette invention repose en partie sur l'identification de gènes qui sont amplifiés dans le génome de cellules tumorales. Une telle amplification génique est supposée être associée à la surexpression du produit génique et contribuer à l'effet tumorigène. En conséquence, les protéines codées par les gènes amplifiés semblent être des cibles utiles pour le diagnostic et/ou le traitement (notamment la prévention) de certaines tumeurs (notamment du cancer) et peuvent jouer le rôle de prédicteurs du pronostic de traitement antitumoral.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for distributed conditional access (CA) control on a serial communication network. An exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a CA subsystem over a 1394 network, the CA subsystem comprising a receiver unit for receiving a digital broadcast signal (DBS) and OOB data from an external source, where the DBS and OOB data are transmitted from the external source to the receiver unit in different broadcast frequencies. The receiver unit comprises a main tuner subunit coupled to receive the DBS, which can be encrypted with respect to a first encryption scheme. The receiver unit also comprises an OOB tuner subunit coupled to receive the OOB data for decrypting the DBS with respect to the first encryption scheme. The CA subsystem also comprises a CA control unit coupled to the receiver unit, which in turn comprises a CA subunit coupled to receive the DBS and OOB data. If the DBS is encrypted with respect to the first encryption scheme, the CA subunit generates a descrambled signal from the DBS using the OOB data, such that said descrambled signal is no longer encrypted with respect to the first encryption scheme. Other embodiments of the present invention include the above and wherein the descrambled signal is encrypted with respect to a standard 1394 copy protection scheme, but not encrypted with respect to the first encryption scheme.
