Methods for inhibiting an inflammatory cytokine cascade in a patient are also provided. The methods comprise treating the patient with a cholinergic agonist in an amount sufficient to inhibit the inflammatory cytokine cascade, wherein the cholinergic agonist is selective for an ±7 nicotinic receptor. Methods for determining whether a compound is a cholinergic agonist reactive with an ±7 nicotinic receptor are also provided. The methods comprise determining whether the compound inhibits release of a proinflammatory cytokine from a mammalian cell. Additionally, methods for determining whether a compound is a cholinergic antagonist reactive with an ±7 nicotinic receptor are provided.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for transporting interference-related control data and other information between nodes in a wireless network, using a control channel that is distinct from a content channel used to transport content. The control channel may be a different channel in the same unlicensed band as the content channel, a channel in a different unlicensed band, or a channel in a licensed band, and thereby not subject to the same interference-related problems that the unlicensed content channel may experience. As a result, management information for adjusting the content channel's communication parameters may still be communicated between the nodes, whereby mitigation actions may occur. For example, the content channel may be changed to another frequency, compression may be implemented or varied, and/or the data transfer rate may be varied. The control data can also be used to change the control channel's communication parameters.

Abstract: A first substrate ( 11 a) is positioned on a support surface ( 7 ) in a vacuum chamber with an upward-facing first bonding surface ( 12 a) spin-coated with adhesive while a second substrate ( 11 b) is held with downward-facing second bonding surface ( 12 b) to a cover ( 3 ) by suction. While the vacuum chamber is being evacuated to a pressure of between 0.1 mbar and 2 mbar, a support pin ( 9 ) is extended through central openings ( 14 a, 14 b) of the substrates ( 11 a, 11 b) and then retracted with the second substrate ( 11 b) released from the cover ( 3 ) and carried by radially extended balls ( 10 ). The support pin ( 9 ) is lowered to a position where the balls ( 10 ), acting against the first bonding surface ( 12 a), deform the first substrate ( 11 a). The first bonding surface ( 12 a) being therefore slightly concave, the first and second bonding surfaces ( 12 a, 12 b) only touch close to their circumferences. Retraction of the balls ( 10 ) causes a spreading of the contact area radially inwards to cover the first and second bonding surfaces ( 12 a, 12 b) without entrapment of non-bonded areas. The substrates ( 11 a, 11 b) are then lifted by the support pin ( 9 ) with again extended balls ( 10 ) and pressed against the cover ( 3 ) and the vacuum chamber is aired.

Abstract: The invention simplifies the use of the Mixed Logical Dynamic (MLD) framework for modelling of industrial processes and allows to automatically generate and solve optimal control problems and scheduling applications for said industrial processes. A core technical aspect of the invention is the automatic merging of two arbitrarily connected MLD blocks to obtain one composite MLD block. Via a repeated use of the procedure, any arbitrarily complex system containing the complete description of an industrial process can be generated from the simplest MLD building blocks. The optimal control problem is generated via adding an MLD block whose unique output becomes the cost functional of the problem. In a graphical environment, any specific industrial process may be reproduced by instantiating blocks from a library of basic MLD elements or atomic MLD blocks and by properly connecting them. In case an appropriate library is available, this process will not require any expert knowledge from the end user apart from the ability to build the graphical interconnections mentioned. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to an audio encoder and decoder and methods for audio encoding and decoding. In the encoder an audio signal is split into an anechoic signal part and information regarding a reverberant field associated with the audio signal, preferably by a representation using only few parameters such as reverberation time and reverberation amplitude. The anechoic signal is then encoded using an audio codec. At the decoder the anechoic signal part is restored using the audio codec, and the restored anechoic signal part is transformed into the substantially original audio signal by applying reverberance according to the information regarding the reverberant field, preferably by convolution with a room impulse response generated on the basis of the reverberant field information. According to the invention the audio codec involved needs only be capable of encoding anechoic audio signals, thus solving the problem of parametric audio codecs providing poor performance on reverberant audio signals.
