Inventor: WEINDRUCH RICHARD H
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2000-08-08
Abstract: A method of measuring the biological age of a multicellular organism is disclosed. In one embodiment this method comprises the steps of obtaining a sample of nucleic acid isolated from the organism's organ, tissue or cell and determining the expression pattern of a panel of sequences within the nucleic acid that have been predetermined by either increase or decrease in response to biological aging of the organ, tissue or cell. A method of obtaining biomarkers of aging is also disclosed. This method comprises the step of comparing a gene expression profile of a young multicellular organism subject's organ, tissue or cells; a gene expression profile from a chronologically aged subject's organ, tissue or cell; and a gene expression profile from a chronologically aged but biologically younger subject's organ, tissue or cell and identifying gene expression alterations that are observed when comparing the young subjects and the chronologically aged subjects and are not observed or reduced in magnitude when comparing the young subjects and the chronologically aged but biologically younger subjects.

Abstract: A geographic network management system (GNMS) comprises a web server, a database server, and a map server. A user browser connected to the GNMS transmits a search criteria to the web server. The web server transmits the search criteria to the map server. The map server geocodes the search criteria, obtains network data and geospatial data from the database server corresponding to the geocode, and transmits the geocode, the network data, and the geospatial data to the web server. The web server transmits the geocode, the network data, and the geospatial data to the user browser. The network data and the geospatial data are displayed on the user browser as a map displaying network elements of a telecommunication network relative to other network elements, geographic elements, and customers. One or more of the network elements have associated performance elements that display performance characteristics that signify performance attributes associated with the network element. The user browser can navigate through other network data and geospatial data by selecting network elements on the map or by selecting navigation tools or navigation tabs displayed in conjunction with the map.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un oxymètre à impulsion de suréchantillonnage qui comprend un convertisseur analogique numérique avec une fréquence d'échantillonnage suffisante pour prendre de multiples échantillons par cycle de source. Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, un oxymètre (100) à impulsion comprend au moins deux sources lumineuses (102) commandées par des commandes (104) de source lumineuse en réponse à des signaux de commande en provenance d'une unité (116) de traitement de signal numérique. Ces commandes (104) de source peuvent commander les sources (102) de façon à produire un signal de multiplexage par division de fréquence. Ces signaux optiques émis par les sources (102) lumineuses sont émis à travers un appendice (103) d'un patient et arrivent sur un détecteur (106). Ce détecteur (106) fournit un signal de courant analogique représentatif de ces signaux optiques reçus. Un circuit (110) d'amplificateur convertit ce signal de courant analogique en un signal de tension analogique tout en effectuant un certains nombre d'autres fonctions. Ce circuit (110) d'amplificateur produit en sortie un signal de tension analogique représentatif des signaux optiques provenant des sources (102). Ce signal de tension analogique est reçu par un convertisseur (112) A/N rapide qui échantillonne ce signal de tension analogique de façon à générer un signal de tension numérique qui peut être traité par l'unité (116) de traitement de signal numérique. Ce convertisseur (116) A/N rapide fonctionne à une fréquence suffisante pour prendre de multiples échantillons par cycle de source et il peut avoir une fréquence d'échantillonnage supérieure, par exemple, à 41kHz. L'unité (116) de traitement de signal numérique met en oeuvre un logiciel de façon à faire la moyenne des échantillons sur un cycle de source en vue d'améliorer la précision de mesure, le rapport signal/bruit et de réduire la longueur de mot du convertisseur A/N.

be stacked and fused together are secured to wafer holders
20 1  and 20 2  respectively, and are then integrally held
at a wafer hold unit 2. Rough position alignment is

while supplying infrared light thereto from an infrared
light source 30 of an infrared light system 3 for detection
of a resultant lattice image at a detection unit 5.
Then, fine position alignment is performed while
supplying laser light from an laser light source 40 of
a laser light system 4 for detection of a resultant
diffraction image at the detection unit 5. Thus, in
the manufacture of a semiconductor device having its
crystal structure with three-dimensional periodical
refractive index distribution employing precision
multilayer stack methods by using a wafer fusion, a method
and apparatus for manufacturing the semiconductor device
is realized which is capable of achieving precise position
alignment between lattice layers stacked over each other
with reduced complexity in position alignment thereof.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an electrode plate for a battery includes
the following: the regions on both sides of and close to a portion to be cut 4 of
an electrode sheet 3 are each fixed between the cutting edges 2 of a pair of
upper and lower cutting dies 1, i.e., the cutting edges 2 of the adjacent
cutting dies 1 are in contact with only the regions on both sides of and close
to the portion to be cut 4; two adjacent pairs of upper and lower cutting dies
1 on both sides of the portion to be cut 4 are moved in opposite directions
(upward and downward), and thus the electrode sheet 3 is cut at the portion
to be cut 4, resulting in nickel electrode plates having a width of 50 mm and
length of 100 mm. This method can suppress the adhesion of fragments to
the electrode plate surface and the generation of burrs, thereby reducing the
short-circuit failure between the electrode plates incorporated into a battery.
