Title: Method and apparatus for analysis of molecular combination based on computations of shape complementarity using basis expansions
Inventor: DATTA SOMALEE
IPC: G16B40/00
Filed: 2004-10-14
Abstract: A method and apparatus for analysis of molecular combinations featuring two or more molecular subsets is described. The method computes the shape complementarity of the system utilizing a basis expansion representing molecular shapes of the first and second molecular subsets in a coordinate system. The precomputed sets of translated expansion coefficients for the first molecular subset are first constructed via application of a translation operator to a reference set of expansion coefficients and then stored on a computer recordable medium for later retrieval. Then, a shape complementarity score, representing a correlation of the first and second molecular subsets, is computed via suitable application of rotation operators to both the stored translated expansion coefficients of the first molecular subset and the reference expansion coefficients for the second molecular subset over the sequence of different sampled configurations for the molecular combination.

Patent CA-2562790-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KATO MASAKI
IPC: H04B10/04
Filed: 2005-04-14
Abstract: A coolerless photonic integrated circuit (PIC), such as a semiconductor electro-absorption modulator/laser (EML) or a coolerless optical transmitter photonic integrated circuit (TxPIC), may be operated over a wide temperature range at temperatures higher then room temperature without the need for ambient cooling or hermetic packaging. Since there is large scale integration of N optical transmission signal WDM channels on a TxPIC chip, a new DWDM  system approach with novel sensing schemes and adaptive algorithms provides intelligent control of the PIC to optimize its performance and to allow optical transmitter and receiver modules in DWDM systems to operate uncooled.  Moreover, the wavelength grid of the on-chip channel laser sources may thermally float within a WDM wavelength band where the individual emission wavelengths of the laser sources are not fired to wavelength peaks along a standardized wavelength grid but rather may move about with changes in ambient temperature. However, control is maintained such that the channel spectral spacing between channels across multiple signal channels, whether such spacing is periodic or aperiodic, between adjacent laser sources in the thermally floating wavelength grid are maintained in a firmed relationship. Means are then provided at an optical receiver to discover and lock onto floating wavelength grid of transmitted WDM signals and thereafter demultiplex the transmitted WDM signals for OE conversion.
