Abstract: A voltage-controlled oscillator with automatic center frequency calibration. The frequency range (FOUT) of the oscillator is increased because of the presence of a switchable capacitor arrangement (SCA) which add or remove extra capacitors (XC1; XC2) in parallel with the variable capacitor (CV) of the resonant circuit (CV, L). Different voltage versus frequency characteristics (CHL, CHM, CHH) are so obtained. The control of the switchable capacitor arrangement is performed by a control signal provided (SC) by an oscillator control device (OCD). The control device also sends a reset pulse (RES) to a feedback device (FB) when a control voltage (VCTRL) reaches predetermined low (VTL) or high (VTH) voltage limits of the characteristics. With this reset pulse, the control voltage is reset to an intermediate voltage (VTM) in the middle of the range between the low and the high voltage limits. By resetting the control voltage, the output frequency is also brought to an average value, i.e. is centered. The voltage-controlled oscillator also preferably comprises a selection device (MX) adapted to immediately change the value of the control voltage to the intermediate voltage. The selection device operates faster than the feedback device. In a preferred embodiment, memory cells are provided to store control signals corresponding to different output frequencies, i.e. channels of a mobile telecommunication system such as the GSM. The stored control signals are applied to the switchable capacitor arrangement to improve the jump to a steady state of the voltage-controlled oscillator, e.g. starting from power-down. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Dominant negative alleles of human mismatch repair genes can be used to generate hypermutable cells and organisms. By introducing these genes into cells and transgenic animals, new cell lines animal varieties with novel and useful properties can be prepared more efficiently than by relying on the natural rate of mutation. These methods are useful for generating genetic diversity within genes encoding for therapeutic antigens to produce altered polypeptides with enhanced antigenic and immunogenic activity. Moreover, these methods are useful for generating effective vaccines.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for obtaining mammographic images of a human patient's breast and subsequently obtaining tissue samples for biopsy includes a deck having one or more of access sites, with the deck elevated above a floor or other supporting surface and capable of supporting the patient thereon. The deck includes a frame and may include one or more filler sections occupying respective access sites when closed. The filler sections are preferably positioned to provide one or more access sites on each side of the deck when opened, the access sites being sized to accommodate a technician or mammography device therein. The deck may include a central, longitudinally extending spine with cross-members extending perpendicular thereto. The filler sections can be removably or pivotally mounted on hinges or pivot pins to selectively shift out of the openings, such as by dropping or raising to a vertical orientation, to accommodate a mammography device or examiner. Removable head and foot supports may be interchangably mounted at either end of the deck, allowing either end to receive the patient's head. The head support is specially shaped to allow oblique and cranial-caudal imaging with the patient in the decubitus position. The method includes placing the patient in a left or right lateral decubitus position to present her breast in facing relationship to a mammography device positioned in one of the access sites for obtaining a mammographic image, and if necessary, inserting a probe such as a needle or wire for needle localization or a core-cutting rotatable blade to obtain a tissue sample for biopsy.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for dynamically discovering and utilizing an optimized network path through overlay routing fort he transmission of data. A determination whether to use a default network path or to instead use an alternate data forwarding path through one or more overlay nodes is based on real-time measurement of costs associated with the alternative paths, in response to a user request for transmission of message data to a destination on the network. Cost metrics include delay, throughput, jitter, loss, and security. The system chooses the best path among the default forwarding path and the multiple alternate forwarding paths, and implements appropriate control actions to force data transmission along the chosen path. No modification of established network communication protocols is required.

Abstract: In a method of reducing bacterial growth in a water mixer (1) with an associated consumer line (6), there are used supply lines (10; 11) for cold and water respectively. These lines open into a chamber (17) for mixed water after passing through a cold water chamber (15) and a hot water chamber (16) respectively. A cold water circulation line (21) extends from the cold water chamber (15). The temperature of the water in the circulation line is sensed by a sensor (22) and the circulating water is cooled prior to being returned via the cold water supply line (10). The consumer line is drained of water subsequent to a consumer sequence, wherewith additional cold water is supplied to the mixer in order to lower the temperature therein and also the temperature in the consumer line (6). The additional cold water is also drained from the mixer and the consumer line. The method enables the system temperature to be kept at a low level sufficient to obviate the risk of the growth of legionella bacteria. The invention also relates to a mixer for carrying out the method.

Abstract: This invention concerns interactions among APRIL/G70, AGP-3/BLYS, BCMA, and TACI and related methods of use and compositions of matter. It has been found that (1) sAPRIL/G70 binds to the cell-surface receptors BCMA and TACI on T and B lymphoma cells, resulting in stimulation of proliferation of primary human and mouse B and T cells both in vitro and in vivo; (2) APRIL competes with AGP3's binding to TACI and BCMA; (3) sBCMA inhibits APRIL and AGP3 binding to its receptors; (4) sBCMA ameliorates T cell dependent and T cell independent humoral immune responses in vivo; (5) sTACI inhibits APRIL and AGP3 binding to its receptors and ameliorates T cell dependent and T cell independent humoral immune responses in vivo; and (6) BCMA exhibits similarity with TACI within a single cysteine rich domain located N-terminal to a potential transmembrane domain. These discoveries provides a strategy for development of therapeutics for treatment of autoimmune diseases, and cancer, for prevention of transplant rejection. Disease states and disease parameters associated with APRIL and AGP-3 may be affected by modulation of BCMA or TACI; disease states and parameters associated with TACI can be affected by modulation of APRIL; disease states and parameters can be affected by modulation of any of TACI, BCMA, APRIL and AGP-3 by a single therapeutic agent or two or more therapeutic agents together.

Abstract: A method for estimating a receiver's location in a wireless communication environment having several channels. Each channel has at least one signal parameter that varies with location differently from the other channels. A set of calibration data is determined for each calibration point, each set including the location and at least one measured signal parameter for each of several channels. The calibration data serve as a basis for a statistical model of the signal parameters versus a receiver's location. A set of observed signal parameters is determined, the set including at least one signal parameter for each of several channels at the receiver's location. A location estimate approximating the location of the receiver is determined on the basis of the statistical model and the set of observed signal parameters.

A specific KRB can be generated for a group identified by a specific node and distributed to the group to restrict a device for which the key can be renewed. Any device not belonging to the group cannot decrypt the key, whereby the security of key distribution can be assured. Especially in a system using a generation-managed master key, a master key renewed with KRB can be distributed. <IMAGE>
