Patent CA-2422255-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCBRIDE DARIN C
IPC: G06F8/38
Filed: 2003-03-14
Abstract: A method and system for installing and configuring a software product on a data processing system that associates setup interface panels with individual components of the software product and that builds a setup interface based upon the data processing system context at the time of installation and configuration. Components may be available on an installation media or may already be installed on the data processing system. A list of all available components is gathered and a corresponding list of all panels associated with the available components is created. Panels may have conditions governing whether or not they are displayed and those conditions may include the state of their associated component. The panel list is filtered to remove any panels that, because of their conditions, are not to be displayed in the current system context. The setup interface is built based upon the filtered panel list and it is displayed to the user. The system context includes the state of the components, the setup type and the setup tasks. Panels may register for notification as the system context changes in the course of setup in order for the panel to be added to or removed from the setup interface.

Inventor: CALLENDER ROBIN L
IPC: G06F9/445
Filed: 2003-05-12
Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products that, by defining a common interface, allow for a single implementation of operations common to both kernel mode and user mode processing, relative to a hardware adapter. Corresponding kernel mode and user mode implementations of the operations are provided. For a given process, a call to the common interface is mapped to the kernel mode implementation for kernel mode processes and to the user mode implementation for user mode processes. The mapping may be performed at runtime or may be static. The common operation may provide a user mode process direct access to a hardware adapter, such as for sending and receiving information, without switching to kernel mode. A kernel mode implementation for operations unique to kernel mode processing, such as specifying security parameters for the hardware adapter to enforce, or initiating and terminating communication through the hardware adapter, also may be provided.

Title: Method and apparatus for proactively sending a message
Inventor: MARVICH VICKIE
IPC: H04M3/42
Filed: 2003-05-16
Abstract: Contact centres are typically arranged to receive incoming contacts from customers and act accordingly. That is, the customer initiates contact with the contact centre. More recently, a need has arisen for contact centres to be able to initiate communication with customers. For example, to inform a customer that his or her flight has been cancelled and offer that customer the option to take part in an interactive communication session to book a new flight. A communications system such as a contact centre is interfaced with a business system such as customer relationship management system. In this way messages can be proactively sent to users.
Patent CA-2429091-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KRAUS TIMOTHY JAMES
IPC: A01D34/66
Filed: 2003-05-20
Abstract: A mower has a pair of cutter heads which are pivotally supported by respective cantilever beams. The cantilever beams are pivotally coupled with a hitch assembly, which in turn is coupled with a traction unit via two lower lift arms and a floatable top link. The floatable top link allows the hitch assembly to float relative to the traction unit during transport. A hydraulic cylinder interconnected between the cantilever beams pivots the beams between a transport position and a working position. Stops on the hitch assembly limit pivotal movement of the beams relative to the hitch assembly.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de détecter et de quantifier simultanément des molécules cibles multiples dans un seul puits de réaction d'une surface de réaction. Des anticorps de différentes molécules cibles sont liés à une surface de réaction. Une solution échantillon supposée contenir les molécules cibles est ajoutée à la surface de réaction et incubée. Au cours de l'incubation, les molécules cibles forment des complexes avec les anticorps liés. Après une étape de lavage, un mélange d'anticorps liés à une enzyme est ajouté à la surface de réaction. Ces anticorps liés à une enzyme ont une affinité pour les complexes molécules cibles/anticorps liés. L'addition séquentielle de substrats enzymatiques spécifiques permet de détecter des molécules cibles multiples sans empoisonner les enzymes. L'invention concerne également un nécessaire de détection simultanée de molécules cibles multiples.

Title: Method and system for calibrating location systems
Inventor: HOLT BRIAN
IPC: G01S5/06
Filed: 2002-06-20
Abstract: This invention relates to a method for calibrating a wireless location system (WLS) to enable the system to make highly accurate differential measurements such as time difference of arrival (TDOA) and frequency difference of arrival (FDOA). Calibration is accomplished by transmitting a signal from an unknown location and measuring at each of two receivers (75, 76) the parameter to be calibrated from that part of the received signal reflected or refracted from an object at a known location in the area. A differential measurement error is determined by comparing the expected difference in the parameter measurements with the actual difference in the parameter measurements. The expected difference is known, a priori, based on the locations of the receivers and the location of the object.

The module 100 permits the filling and pressure testing of a fluid distribution system to which it belongs by use of a test point 15 for monitoring the fluid supply pressure and a test point 20 for monitoring the fluid exhaust pressure. The fluid flow rates throughout the fluid distribution system may be balanced in order to ensure that all parts of the system receive an adequate proportion of the total flow from a supply by the use of the regulating valves 25, 26, 27, 28. The module 100 may itself be flushed and cleaned by opening the isolating valve 16. In an alternative embodiment a commissioning module 100 includes a plurality of heat exchangers connected to the module 100.

Title: Use of thinnings and other low specific gravity wood for lyocell products method
Inventor: LUO MENGKUI
IPC: D04H1/4258
Filed: 2003-12-12
Abstract: The use of low specific gravity wood from thinning operations, for example, will produce a lower brownstock viscosity for a given kappa number target. A differential of 200-cP falling ball pulp viscosity has been detected from Kraft cooks of low and high specific gravity wood. Using low specific gravity wood can reduce the bleach stage temperature and the chemical dose needed in the bleach plant to produce lyocell pulp specifications. Low specific gravity wood also increases the ability to reduce pulp viscosity to very low levels without increasing the copper number of the pulp or the concentration of carbonyl in the pulp above acceptable levels.
