Abstract: A cryosurgical system and method for supplying cryogen to a probe (24). The system including a container filled with cryogen and having bellows (56) of a pump (18) submerged within said cryogen. Conduits fluidly interconnect the bellows (56) and a probe (24) that is outside the container to permit the cryogen to be forced from the bellows to the probe upon activation of pump (18). A pressure relief valve (22) is fluidly coupled to the conduits and positioned between the bellows (56) and the probe (24). After initially forcing cryogen to the probe at a pressure that establishes a colligative-based sub-cooling of the liquid cryogen, the pressure relief valve (22) is activated to lower the pressure of the cryogen to a running pressure.

Abstract: Un signal numérique envoyé à un affichage (50) (par exemple, une pluralité d'éléments (65) d'affichage formant un réseau d'éléments d'affichage) peut être converti en un signal analogique à l'aide d'une relation non linéaire. Dans une forme de réalisation, un signal d'entraînement peut être envoyé à au moins un élément (65) d'affichage du réseau d'éléments d'affichage en réponse à des données d'étalonnage. L'intégration des données d'étalonnage au moyen de la relation non linéaire permet de déterminer l'amplitude du signal d'entraînement afin de commander une sortie perceptible provenant de l'élément d'affichage du réseau d'éléments d'affichage. De cette manière, il est possible de compenser la dégradation de non uniformité initiale sur la durée et/ou la dégradation non uniforme du ou des éléments d'affichage faisant partie du réseau d'éléments d'affichage. La relation non linéaire réduit le nombre de niveaux de données d'étalonnage discrets nécessaires pour éviter le contraste perceptible entre les pixels voisins qui produit les effets de contournage. En outre et facultativement, une correction de gamma peut être simultanément effectuée avec la compensation par ajustement de la durée du signal d'entraînement envoyé à l'élément d'affichage faisant partie du réseau d'éléments d'affichage.

Abstract: The present invention includes a method or Internet phone for automatically dialing up a
phone call connection across an Internet connection. Initially the caller manually dials a
recipient's telephone number, and once the telephone call connection is made, the caller
party's Internet phone automatically starts a dialing routine which notifies the recipient
party's Internet phone that a phone card connection over an Interned connection is
desired. The dialing may be a differential ringing sequence, a differential timing sequence
or a single ringing interval. Upon the dialing routine being detected by the recipient party's
Internet phone, the parties end the telephone connection and proceed to make separate
connections to the Internet, including a connection to a Lightweight Directory Access
Protocol (LDAP). The caller party and recipient part Internet phones submit information
related to their respective Internet protocol address and telephone numbers. The caller
party additionally submits information related to the recipient Internet phone's telephone
number. Then the Internet connection for the intended phone call is automatically
completed. Alternatively, the differential dialing routine can be performed by a knocking
server on the Internet, and a directory server on the Internet can match callers and
recipients by their respective telephone numbers. Additionally, the knocking server permits
caller equipment to be without dialing capabilities as these are now at the knocking server.

Abstract: The present invention governs the order of destination nodes to which each node will
send by establishing an individual circular output routing scheme for each node based
on that node's unique identifier, thereby evenly distributing node traffic. The output
routing scheme for each node can begin with the next incrementally higher node
identifier. The output routing scheme can be built by incrementing the node identifiers
until the highest node identifier is reached. The lowest node identifier follows the
highest node identifier. Then, the node identifiers are again incremented until the
sending node's identifier is reached. Each node can iteratively follow its own output
routing scheme.

Abstract: Adaptive model-based control systems and methods are described so that
performance and/or operability of a gas turbine (51) in an aircraft engine,
power plant, marine propulsion, or industrial application can be optimized
under normal, deteriorated, faulted, failed and/or damaged operation. First, a
model (52) of each relevant system or component is created, and the model
(52) is adapted to the engine (51). Then, if/when deterioration, a fault, a
failure or some kind of damage to an engine component or system is
detected, that information is input to the model-based control (54) as changes
to the model, constraints, objective function, or other control parameters.
With all the information about the engine condition, and state and directives
on the control goals in terms of an objective function and constraints, the
control then solves an optimization so the optimal control action can be
determined and taken. This model (52) and control (54) may be updated in
real-time to account for engine-to-engine variation, deterioration, damage,
faults and/or failures using optimal corrective control action command(s).
