Title: Combination modes for network connection management
Inventor: ROBERTSON IAN M
IPC: H04L9/00
Filed: 2007-01-25
Abstract: A network connection establishment protocol is made more secure by directly associating a non-discoverable mode with a non-pairable mode in a combined non-discoverable/non-pairable mode. Advantageously, rather that allowing incoming pairing requests even when a device is non-discoverable, the device in the closed mode rejects all pairing requests. Responsive to specific initiation, the device may enter a combined discoverable/pairable mode. The device may be preconfigured to revert from the combined discoverable/pairable mode to the combined non-discoverable/non-pairable mode after a given duration of time or after a predetermined number of pairings.

Abstract: A method for extracting segments from an electrocardiogram tracing is disclosed. The method selects an electrocardiogram tracing for segment extraction, and associates a dosing time or other time point with the electrocardiogram tracing to align an extraction template within the electrocardiogram tracing for segment extraction. The electrocardiogram tracing is scanned for artifacts and the electrocardiogram tracing is annotated if any artifacts are discovered. If there are any artifacts present in the segment designated for extraction by the extraction template, the extraction template is modified to avoid the artifacts. If the extraction template cannot be modified, the electrocardiogram tracing is annotated as unextractable. If artifacts are not present in the segment designated for extraction by the extraction template or the extraction template was successfully modified, the designated segment is extracted from the electrocardiogram tracing and written to a storage medium.

IPC: E21B43/00
Filed: 2006-08-18
Abstract: A single conduit lift pump is disclosed that only requires a single fluid conduit for both the driving fluid and the pumping action of the pump in a well bore. Fluid pressure communicated to the pump by the single fluid conduit drives the pump to load a resilient member.
