separation layer (14) laminated thereonto, this polarization
separation layer (14) being a liquid crystal layer made of a
cholesteric liquid crystal. The thickness of the liquid crystal

Abstract: A cable drag chain includes a plurality of link members
(12) connected together end to end in a bendable manner. Each
of the link members is molded of synthetic resin and includes
a pair of opposed left and right side plates (16, 17), and
upper and lower connecting plates (20, 18) connecting upper and
lower edges, respectively, of the side plates. The upper
connecting plate has one end made contiguous to one of the side
plates via a resiliently deformable hinge portion (24), the
other end of the upper connecting plate being formed with a
locking portion (26) releasably engaged with a portion of the
other side plate. The hinge portion has a circular recess
formed in a central portion of an outside surface thereof and
hence is reduced in cross-sectional area at the recessed
central portion, so that the upper connecting plate has a
tendency to resiliently flex at the recessed central portion in
a given direction when the upper connecting plate is forced to
move from an erected released position to a recumbent assembled
position. The width and thickness of the hinge portion are
determined in view of a maximum tensile stress and a maximum
compressive stress of a synthetic resin material to such an
extent that the hinge portion is deformable in an elastic
region.

Abstract: Periodically sending by a telecommunication controlled
application an encrypted message to a license server to request
permission to run and to obtain a list of permitted features. The license
server application is executing on the same processor as the controlled
application. Also resident on the same system is a license file which
contains a list of applications that are permitted to run, the version number
of the permitted applications and a list of permitted features. The license
server is responsive to the encrypted message from the controlled
application to read and decrypt the license file, read the serial number of
the processor controlling the telecommunications system, compare the
serial number obtained from the processor with the serial number stored in
the license file. If there is a mis-match, no license is granted to the control
applications and it will not be allowed to run. If the serial numbers match,
then a comparison is made between the version number received from the
application and the corresponding version number associated with the
application in the license file. If the version number mis-matches, an
encrypted message is sent to the application denying it permission to run.
If the version number matches, an encrypted message is sent to the
application granting it permission to run and listing the permitted features.
To decrypt the license file, the license server utilizes a key that is assigned
to the license server either globally or on a per system basis.

Abstract: Methods for predicting the presence of haemostatic dysfunction in a patient from a time-dependent measurement profile include performing a time-dependent measurement on an unknown sample and measuring a respective property over time so as to derive a time-dependent measurement profile. The slope of the time-dependent measurement profile is computed prior to clot formation. A biphasic waveform is detected in the time-dependent measurement profile based on the computed slope. The presence of haemostatic dysfunction in the patient is predicted based on the detected biphasic waveform.

Title: Closed loop power control in a radio communication system
Inventor: MOULSLEY TIMOTHY J
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 2000-05-19
Abstract: In a radio communication system having a primary station and a plurality of secondary stations, the power of uplink and downlink channels between the primary station and a secondary station is controlled in a closed loop manner by each station transmitting power control commands to the other station. In response to these commands the receiving station adjusts its output power in steps. By considering a plurality of received power control commands the receiving station may emulate the ability to use power control step sizes other than those it directly implements, for example step sizes smaller than its minimum or intermediate between implemented step sizes. Performance can thereby be improved under certain channel conditions. In one embodiment when the required power control step size is less than the minimum step size of the receiving station, that station processes a group of power control commands to determine whether to adjust its output power by its minimum step size.
