Abstract: Disclosed is a communication system, and methods for
operating the communication system, of a type that includes
a satellite communication system segment comprising at least
one satellite (10) that projects a plurality of beams (1010)
on the surface of the earth. The satellite communication
system segment further includes at least one terrestrial
satellite gateway (76) that is bidirectionally coupled to the
at least one satellite (10) and also to a terrestrial
communications system (75). In the communication system one
or more beams (1010) from one or more satellites at the
surface of the earth define a regional service area (1010)
within which at least one Wireless Local Loop (WLL) service
region is located. The communication system further includes
a terrestrial communication segment comprising at least one
WLL base station (1105) capable of bidirectional
communications with a plurality of WLL user terminals (1103)
within the WLL service region (1101). The terrestrial segment
further includes a virtual gateway (1108) that is
bidirectionally coupled to the WLL base station (1105) and to
the at least one satellite (10). The virtual gateway (1108)
is responsive to the terrestrial satellite gateway (76) for
temporarily assuming control of satellite system resources
for bidirectionally coupling a communication to or from an
individual one of the WLL user terminals (1103) into or out
of the WLL service region. The virtual gateway (1108) can
also transmit at least one of paging and broadcast messages
to WLL user terminals (1103). The paging and broadcast
messages are first received by the virtual gateway (1108)
from the terrestrial satellite gateway (76) via the at least
one satellite (10).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un diffuseur holographique à modelage de lumière (LSD) formé à partir d'un matériau de verre monolithique, par l'enregistrement de structures de modelage de lumière (parfois appelées collectivement 'tachetures', en particulier lorsque les structures s'étendent à l'intérieur du diffuseur) dans le matériau de verre au cours de la formation de celui-ci. Un LSD volumique peut être produit par l'inscription photolithographique, ou par d'autres procédés de formation d'images, de structures de modelage de lumière dans un matériau de verre photosensible. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, un LSD de surface peut être produit à l'aide de ce procédé de formation d'images, par gaufrage de structures de modelage de lumière sur un verre optique de haute qualité, ou par gaufrage de structures de modelage de lumière sur une couche de film déposé sur un substrat. Les deux types de diffuseurs permettent un réglage de l'angle de distribution de lumière émise tout en homogénéisant d'autres sources de lumière bruitée spatialement, tels que des dispositifs d'affichage à cristaux liquides (LCD) et des sources de lumière à filament, et en maintenant des seuils de détérioration compatibles avec tout élément optique en verre. Le LSD présente un rendement de transmission supérieur à 90 %, qui recouvre les longueurs d'onde d'ultraviolets, le spectre physique et l'infrarouge proche. En outre, le LSD étant un verre véritable, il est capable de résister à des températures dépassant largement les températures de transition vitreuse de LSD en plastique; le LSD peut être formé dans des surfaces convexes ou concaves par des techniques classiques de moulage, de meulage ou de polissage, et peut être traité par des techniques de revêtement à chaud. Le LSD présente également un seuil très élevé de puissance laser.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de préparation d'un linge non tissé, stérilisé, consistant à enduire un linge non tissé avec 0,005 % environ en poids à 3 % environ en poids, par rapport au poids du linge, d'un agent antistatique; et à exposer le linge non tissé, enduit, à un plasma oxydant. L'agent antistatique est conçu pour ne dégager aucune odeur désagréable après l'exposition du linge non tissé enduit au plasma oxydant. Il peut par ailleurs être conçu pour produire un linge non tissé stérile possédant une valeur de résistance à la pression hydrostatique, ainsi qu'on peut la mesurer par la méthode 5514 de la norme fédérale N° 191A des méthodes d'essai, qui est égale à au moins 50 % de la valeur de résistance à la pression hydrostatique du linge non tissé, enduit, avant son exposition au plasma oxydant. Cet agent antistatique peut être conçu pour que le linge non tissé, stérile, possède une résistivité superficielle en ohms qui est inférieure à la résistivité superficielle en ohms du linge non tissé, enduit, avant son exposition au plasma oxydant. Cet agent antistatique peut être un sel d'ammonium ou de métal alcalin de mono-ou di-phosphate d'alkyle C3 dans lequel la fraction alkyle C3 est un groupe alkyle contenant trois atomes de carbone éventuellement substitué par des groupes hydroxy, ou un phosphate d'alkyle à substitution β-carbone, un phosphate de di(alkyle à substitution β-carbone) ou un mélange de deux ou plus des composés ci-dessus. Cette invention se rapporte également à une matière fibreuse en feuille, du type tissu barrière, compresse de stérilisation, vêtement chirurgical et enveloppements pour actes médicaux.

Abstract: A real time "plug and play" installation mechanism which, instead of signaling the
operating system (103) to activate a pre-existing installation file previously shipped with the
operating system file structure, energizes the operating system (103) to retrieve the
installation from a remote source (105). Examples of locations from which the installation
resources may be retrieved include (1) an internet universal resource location (URL), (2) a
dial-up bulletin board service (BBS), (3) a local area network (LAN) or wide area network
(WAN) in which any required access protocols are supplied with the new device being
installed, or (4) non-volatile storage (e.g. firmware) physically located on the new device
being installed. The device manufacturer gives the operating system manufacturer a special
installation file (104) at the time that the operating system manufacturer distributes a new
release. The special file (104) appears to the operating system (103) to be a conventional
installation file. Then, when a new device (101) is installed, the device (101) identifies itself
to the operating system (103), whereupon the operating system's "plug and play"
functionality causes the operating system (103) to execute the corresponding special
installation file (104). Instead of receiving installation instructions in the special file,
however, the operating system (103) receives instructions to retrieve the installation resources
from a selected remote location (105).

Abstract: An improvement in the technique to create output image includes creating on
output template data by automatically replacing template character train data, which is
created based on an output format, with data that is inputted by an operator and has
the same identification as the template data. The created output data is the same as it
is inputted by an operator based on the format. As the data, which is inputted without
regard to the format, can be used for creating output image data with this method, an
operator does not need to input data based on a predetermined format, thereby
reducing an operator's burden.

Abstract: The present invention provides a clocked comparator (300) which
extends the time period before an input signal is measured to include
most of the clock cycle, thereby increasing the amount of time
available for the input signal to achieve a "steady-state" condition. After
the input signal achieves a "steady-state" condition the comparator
(310) compares the input signal (328) against a reference voltage
(312) and a decision register (320) latches the comparator output. The
decision signal may then be further latched (322) to be made available
(330) for external circuitry in the subsequent clock cycle. A multi-phase
programmable signal generator is connected to the clocked generator
for generating a plurality of timing signals. The multi-phase
programmable signal generator employs a plurality of single bit
registers interconnected in series to form a shift register. Output
signals generated by the programmable signal generator are used to
drive, the switches and register clocks of the clocked comparator.

Abstract: A two stage, on-demand, commercially-viable method for producing
process cheese or process cheese-type products by the direct conversion of milk
is provided. This method does not require fermentation, enzymatic treatment,
and/or intermediate steps of forming and separating curds and whey. In the first
stage, a powdered milk protein concentrate (16) is formed by ultrafiltering liquid
milk (10), preferably skim milk, and then spray drying the concentrated
ultrafiltered milk. The powdered milk protein concentrate (16), which is storage-stable,
may be converted to process cheese or process cheese-type product (42)
immediately or may be stored for later conversion. The powdered milk protein
concentrate (16) can be used to produce fat-free, reduced- or low-fat, and/or full-fat
cheeses (42) having similar organoleptic properties to cheeses prepared from
conventional curds and whey processes. The present two stage process is
especially adapted for semi-continuous or continuous manufacture of process
cheese-type products. The present two stage process is especially adapted for
on-demand manufacture of process cheese or process cheese-type product (42)
since the milk protein concentrate (16) can be stored for later conversion to
cheese product. By converting the milk (10) to a storage-stable milk protein
concentrate, the manufacturing of cheese products (42) is uncoupled from, and is
independent of, the milk supply.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a micro-injecting
device for supplying working fluid for heating
chambers. According to an embodiment of the present
invention, two main channels for supplying the working
fluid for the heating chamber are formed in the micro-injecting
device. Even if one of the main channels is
prevented by means of dust or particle, or due to a
defect of etching, it can be possible to supply the
working fluid for the heating chambers as supply of the
working fluid can be accomplished through the other
channel communicated with one of channels. In the
embodiment of the present invention, furthermore, in
order to increase flow resistance of the working fluid, a
feeder channel for supplying the working fluid for the
heating chambers can be formed in a curved shape or a
plurality of projections can be formed on the outer walls
of heating chamber barrier layers defining the auxiliary
channel for supplying the working fluid for the heating
chambers. Accordingly, it can be possible to prevent
backwash of the working fluid, assuring uniform operation
of the membranes.

Abstract: The method involves one unit managing an associated number equal to some or all of a total number of configurable elements. Reconfiguration requests are sent from the elements to the unit. The unit accepts no further requests and changes during processing; loads yet to be loaded configuration data of earlier requests from an intermediate memory into the configurable element; and converts the current request to a definite identifier or ID. The ID is converted to the address in the unit's memory of the configuration data to be loaded if the data exists in the memory. The data are requested from a superior unit if not present in the unit's memory. The data are loaded if the element can accept them. Data which cannot be accepted are placed in temporary memory. When configuration data have been fully processed, new requests can be accepted, until when the configuration data yet to be loaded from earlier request are loaded into the configurable elements.

Abstract: This application discloses that inositolphosphoglycans (IPGs) can be obtained from basophils, eosinophils and mast cells and that allergen stimulation of these cells results in IPG release. It also shows that IPGs are second messengers for allergic stimulation as the addition of some types of purified IPGs to non-allergen stimulated cells resulted in histamine release or degranulation. Thus, IPG antagonists can be used for the treatment of conditions (especially allergy and asthma) mediated by the release of IPGs from mast cells, basophils or eosinophils. Preferred IPG antagonists include anti-IPG antibodies, inhibitors of the enzyme GPI-PLD and competitive antagonists.
