Abstract: Described herein are devices and techniques for spray drying a fluid to produce a dried powder. Assemblies include a spray drying head attachable to a gas supplier and a liquid sample, such as a standard unit of blood product. The spray drying head can be adapted to provide an aerosolized flow of liquid sample exposed to a drying gas. The assembly also includes a drying chamber adapted to separate the aerosolized flow of liquid sample into a dried powder and humid air. The assembly can be disposable, provided in a sterilized kit and having simplified attachments allowing quick connect and disconnect from the gas and liquid sample. Separation of the powder from the humid air exiting the drying chamber occurs within a filtered collection bag. In some embodiments, one or more of the drying chamber and collection bag are formed form a thin-walled, collapsible material.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method, device and system for lossless bandwidth adjustment in the technical field of communications. The method includes: an Optical Channel Data Unit flexible (ODUflex) path downstream node receives a request message from an ODUflex upstream node, wherein the request message carries the tunnel identifier (ID) of the ODUflex path and the information of the bandwidth after adjustment, and is used for requesting the lossless adjustment for the ODUflex path bandwidth (10); the downstream node searches for the information of the ODU flex path bandwidth before adjustment according to the tunnel ID, compares the information of the bandwidth before adjustment with the information of the bandwidth after adjustment, determines the number of slots requiring adjustment for the link between the downstream node and an adjacent upstream node, and selects the slots requiring adjustment (11); the downstream node indicates the adjacent upstream node through a label the slots after adjustment or the selected slots requiring adjustment, transmits a slot adjustment command to a data plane to enable the data plane to perform slot adjustment and ODUflex bit rate adjustment according to the slot adjustment command (12). The embodiments of the invention enable automatic ODUflex lossless bandwidth adjustment, thus avoiding the problems of large workload, the occurrence of configuration errors and the like due to manual bandwidth adjustment.

IPC: G01N1/40

Abstract: Electrokinetic devices and methods are described with the purpose of collecting assayable agents from a dielectric fluid medium. Electrokinetic flow may be induced by the use of plasma generation at high voltage electrodes and consequent transport of charged particles in an electric voltage gradient. In one embodiment, the agents are directed electrokinetically to the sample collection assay device with no intermediate transfer steps. The agents are directed by creation of an electrokinetic potential well, which will effect their capture on to an assay device. Environmental agents such as biowarfare agents, pathogens, allergens or pollutants are collected autonomously on to the assay device, without any human intervention. The dielectric fluid medium, such as air, is sampled by electrokinetic propulsion with no moving parts or optionally, by transporting the dielectric fluid by a fan, pump or by breath. A further embodiment for collection of pathogen samples entails breathing into a tube where the sample is exposed to an electric plasma in the neighborhood of a high voltage electrode or electrodes, further transported by the breath through a potential well created at a sample collection device, where charge particles are electroprecipitated. The dielectric fluid medium may further include non-conductive liquids, such as oils. Oils may be sampled for the presence of contaminants, contaminating organisms or bio-degrading organisms.

Patent CA-2821227-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NAKANO DAIJU
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2012-03-02
Abstract: The present invention restores data of a series of symbols transmitted into a receiver, without making the clock of the receiver match the clock of a transmitter. In this receiver, received data that was over-sampled by two times is made into polyphase, and the data is shifted and a filter coefficient (a series of tap coefficients) of a compensation filter is shifted at the same time, by applying a feedback of an adaptation algorithm. Sampling frequency and phase offset can be compensated on-the-fly, by making a received signal pass through a filter that is a combination of a tapped filter, which has a correlation value obtained from a preamble or a header of the received signal set as the initial value thereof, and a wavefront aligner (a wavefront matching-box). Such a configuration is equivalent to achieving a resampling filter circuit, an equivalent filter circuit, and a decimation filter circuit with just one compensation filter circuit, and is able to make dimensions of a circuit far smaller than those in prior art.

Abstract: An automated response system (e.g., an automated voice response system) may employ learning strategies to develop or improve automated response capabilities.  Learning strategies may include using communications (e.g., utterances, text messages, etc.) of one party in a conversation (e.g., a customer service agent) to identify and categorize communications of another party in the conversation (e.g., a caller).  Classifiers can be build from the categorized communications. Classifiers can be used to identify common communications patterns of a party in a conversation (e.g., an agent).  Learning strategies may also include selecting communications as learning opportunities to improve automated response capabilities based on selection criteria (e.g., selection criteria chosen to ensure that the system does not learn from unreliable or insignificant examples).
