Title: Putative therapeutic targets for the prevention and stoppage of human alzheimer's disease: cdna and amino acid sequence of a proteinase/esterase-like protein and a proteinase/protamine, truncated, modified form of the protein, anti ense to the alzheimer elated human app gene
Inventor: PREDDIE RICK E
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 1992-12-16
Abstract: ABSTRACT   cDNAs for a 104 amino acid protein with endoproteinase and acetylcholinesterase domains and for a cellular, modified, truncated version of the protein are constructed using oligonucleotide synthesis, and expressed in a prokaryotic vector. The sense-antisense relationship between the cDNAs encoding these proteins and the cDNA encoding the amyloid forming APP gene, and the similarities between the amino acid sequences deduced for the protein, and amino acid sequences in proteinases and esterases which are involved in pathogenic processes, make the proteins perfect candidates for factors that cause and maintain human Alzheimer's disease. Since the mRNAs encoding these proteins in healthy humans are repressed by mRNA encoding the normal APP gene and the gene encoding the amyloid related protein APRP363, they are potentially excellent targets for a safe, effective, immunological approach aimed at preventing, perhaps even stopping and reversing, the course of the disease.

Title: Computerized general purpose process control system and method employing generic process building blocks
Inventor: CAMPBELL DAVID L
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 1993-06-15
Abstract: ABSTRACT            A  primitive  process  building  block  is  utilized  in representing each state of a process and implemented as a computerized class object from which all process states are derived.  The building block has a generic set of actions whereby control  may be  transferred between states.  Such generic transitions for each state thereby describe relative flow of  a Work  Item  in  the  process  either  forward  or backward in the process such as to a next or previous state, respectively, or looping within the same state. By defining each state with a uniform model across the system whereby the same set of actions enter and exit a given state,  an improved,  simplified user  interface  is provided.  Generic actions further facilitate automated reporting functions and creation of a process quality matrix.

Title: Method of registering/reassigning a call in a dual mode communication network
Inventor: BORTH DAVID E
IPC: H04W36/30
Filed: 1993-09-22
Abstract: METHOD OF REGISTERING/REASSIGNING A CALL   IN A DUAL MODE COMMUNICATION NETWORK     Abstract of the Disclosure Registration operates by sensing (106) the availability of a first communication system.  A quality factor of a channel of the system is measured (111).  A channel of the first system is selected if the quality factor of the channel exceeds a threshold (113).  If selected, the subscriber attempts to register the call (114). If the registration fails, the availability of a second communication system is sensed (107).  A quality factor of a channel of the second system is measured (111) and selected (113), if the quality factor exceeds a threshold.  The subscriber will then attempt to register (114) with the second system.  Reassignment operates by determining if the first system has reached a capacity limit (126).  If it has, it determines if a channel on the second system is available (128).  If available, a transfer of the call from the first to the second system will be attempted (132).

Title: Video buffer recycling method and apparatus
Inventor: MARTIN KEVIN
IPC: G06T15/40
Filed: 1993-12-02
Abstract: ABSTRACT   A method for rendering of three dimensional images on a video subsystem which does not include clearing of the Z buffer at each frame includes establishment of a Z buffer and a sequence number in memory, where the sequence number is incremented with each successive frame rendered and the Z buffer is cleared when the sequence number reaches a predetermined value; the Z buffer is thus recycled a number of times between clears. In a more elaborate implementation, the precision of the Z buffer is adjusted to permit clearing of the Z buffer to occur either as the result of the sequence number reaching a predetermined value or as the result of the accrual of a predetermined amount of time allocated for clearing, referred to as scheduling. The schedulingmethod can be applied to a wide range of accounting tasks within a system. In addition, a related method for recycling the image buffer is also disclosed in which multiple colormap ID's are used to distinguish data included in a current frame from data in a prior frame, where the colormap ID's associated with the prior frames all map to the background color, leaving to be displayed only the data of the current frame.
