Patent EP-1203333-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GROSSMAN JAMES
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2000-02-09
Abstract: An interactive website on the Internet posts information regarding products and services, each product or service being offered for sale at an initial offering price with at least one lower alternative sales price, which can become the final sales price, being posted. The applicability of the lower price is contingent upon the confirmation of a specified number of prospective sales for that productor service. Confirmed individual purchase orders are cumulatively totalled over time to effect incremental cost reductions for the entire class of purchasers of a given product or service, or for a group of related products or services. Fulfillment of the confirmed purchase orders is preferably affected from inventory held by the product's manufacturer, a regional distributor of the product or a merchant dealing in the product, thereby further reducing the costs associated with each individual sale.

Abstract: A method for screening an optimized ligand, which can avoid the
internalization thereof in cell, with the guidance of a
characteristic of the ligand of being capable of accumulating
specifically in a target tissue by, after systemic administration,
collecting the ligand around a specific receptor (ASGP-R, etc.)
on the cell membrane due to the binding affinity to the receptor
so as to minimize the internalization mediated by the receptor;
and tissue-targeting DDS preparations which can be accumulated
and retained around a receptor by binding an optimum ligand to
a physiologically active protein via a covalent bond. Namely,
a method for screening a ligand having a binding affinity to
a protein such as a specific receptor or antigen present on the
cell membrane of a target tissue or a substance modified with
this ligand with the guidance of the ability to avoid the
internalization mediated by the binding to the receptor, for
example, the ratio of the constant of dissociation rate constant
(K off ) to the constant of internalization rate constant (K int )
to the receptor (i.e., K off /K int ) and the strength of the binding
affinity; and medicinal preparations which can be accumulated
and retained around a receptor, composed of the above-described
ligand and a physiologically active protein or a low-molecular
weight chemical bonded thereto.

Abstract: Packets in a packet switching network are routed along a routing path defined by data held in packet switching nodes. One or more network addresses are assigned to a first access node as home addresses. A first home address is allocated to a first mobile node with at least one routing path being directed to a first access node for that first home address. Routing in the packet switched infrastructure is altered when the first mobile node receives service from a second access node by transmitting routing update messages to a limited subset of localized packet switching nodes such that at least one routing path in the infrastructure is directed to the second access node for the first home address. Routing in the infrastructure is subsequently altered such that at least one routing path is directed to the first access node for the first home address, and the first home address is allocated to a second mobile node served by the first access node.

Abstract: A Viterbi decoder comprises branch metric generating means (22) for generating for each of a plurality of trellis branch data received a respectively associated branch metric, add-compare-select means (26) for pathwise accumulating the generated branch metrics to path metrics, and associating to each trellis state an optimum path and, by selecting amongst various optimum paths generating a set of survivor paths, and survivor memory means (32) for receiving and transiently storing the set of survivor paths. The decoder system is arranged for incremental updating of state pointers in a forward direction, which state pointers for each current actual state indicate with respect to an interval of predetermined incrementing length up to at most a truncation length L, a preceding state to be reached through a traceback over an actual length of the interval, which updating is effected by for an actual survivor word copying its associated state pointer bit into a plurality of state pointer register means each associated to a respective current state pointer.
Patent EP-1206717-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LEVNER DANIEL
IPC: G02B6/124
Filed: 2000-08-04
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for synthesizing supergratings using Fourier analysis. The method divides the synthesis process into two stages: synthesis of an "analog" grating profile, followed by a quantization step. The method provides a generalized procedure for analog synthesis by drawing on the Fourier approximation and on finite-inpulse-response (FIR) filter design theory, while it interprets the simple threshold quantization as a "zeroth order" Delta-Sigma Modulator, which it improves. The method of designing a supergrating for a waveguide includes providing a reflectance spectrum in at least one spectral band to be produced by a supergrating in a waveguide, the reflectance spectrum having specified reflectance features, transforming the reflectance spectrum to a Fourier domain representation having Fourier-domain features, computationally synthesizing an analog refractive index profile corresponding to the Fourier-domain representation and transforming the analog refractive index profile to a binary or multi-level refractive index profile representation in such a way as to conserve Fourier-domain information within the spectral band.
