bitrate and second data having a data amount less than the
maximum bitrate, divides the first data into third data
being the encoded audio data having a data amount of the
maximum bitrate and fourth data being the encoded data of
the portion exceeding over the maximum bitrate and

IPC: C40B40/02

Abstract: The invention refers to a recombination process for recombining a population
of heterologous polynucleotides comprising variant groups and/or regions,
wherein recombination is performed within one group of polynucleotides
and/or between defined regions of polynucleotides by using different restriction
sites in different groups and/or regions of polynucleotides. As a result it
is possible to carry out recombination with mixtures of several unrelated
groups (subsets) of polynucleotides, which recombine due to the use of different
restriction sites independently thus increasing diversity while maintaining
structurally conserved regions in one reaction. The method can
advantageously be carried out without separation of individual components
or clones.

Abstract: A method of enhancing the response time of a liquid crystal display comprises
the steps of measuring the temperature (T LC  ) of a liquid crystal material
forming part of the display, applying a drive voltage signal to the liquid crystal
material at a selected frame refresh frequency so as to display an image and
selecting the frame refresh frequency depending upon the measured
temperature of the liquid crystal material. In the event that the measured
temperature is less than the predetermined temperature (step 38), a cold kick
time period (T coldkick ) is determined (steps 36) depending upon the measured
temperature. A negative bias voltage is applied (step 44) across the liquid
crystal material for the duration of the cold kick time period. The effect of
adjusting the frame refresh frequency in accordance with the measured
temperature and of applying a negative bias voltage to the display serves to
significantly enhance the response time of the device.
