Patent JP-4173634-B2 (JP)
IPC: G06Q10/10
Filed: 1998-12-08
Granted: 2008-10-29
Abstract: In a system and method and system for controlling delivery of unsolicited electronic mail messages, one or more spam probe e-mail addresses are created and planted at various sites on the communications network in order to insure their inclusion on large-scale electronic junk mail ("spam") mailing lists. The mailboxes corresponding to the spam probe e-mail addresses are monitored for incoming mail by a spam control center. Upon receipt of incoming mail addressed to the spam probe addresses, the spam control center automatically analyzes the received spam e-mail to identify the source of the message, extracts the spam source data from the message, and generates an alert signal containing the spam source data. This alert signal is broadcast to all network servers and/or all user terminals within the communications network. A filtering system implemented at the servers and/or user terminals receives the alert signal, updates stored filtering data using the spam source data retrieved from the alert signal, and controls delivery of subsequently-received e-mail messages received from the identified spam source. The filtering system controls delivery of the unsolicited e-mail messages by discarding the messages without displaying them to the user, displaying the messages to the user with a "JUNK" or similar marker, or otherwise processing the spam mail as desired by the network provider and/or the network users. The filtering system may also filter e-mail messages sent by the user terminals.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flexible suction body (22) and method of its use for temporarily immobilizing a local area of tissue during surgery or a diagnostic procedure. The invention device and method are particularly well suited for immobilizing a local area of heart tissue to thereby permit surgery, for example, minimally invasive or micro-surgery, on a coronary vessel without significant deterioration of the pumping function of the beating heart. The invention suction device, which is coupled to a vacuum source (44), has a ring- or horseshoe-shaped suction channel (22) with a flexible, spreadable outer rim (10) that flattens and spreads outwardly against the surface of the treatment site as air is withdrawn from the suction channel (22). This design distributes the pressure of the suction body against the treatment site while maximizing the suction field to minimize bruising and suction hemorrhage at the treatment site caused by the suction body (22). The suction body (22) is preferably manufactured of a soft, compliant material, such as an elastomeric polymer, to conform to the surface of the heart and may be contoured in overall shape to further enhance its conformation to a contoured surface, such as the surface of the heart.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a manufacturing method of applying dry powder in a controlled manner to a variety of surfaces to form shapes, coatings, or composite materials. This is achieved by coating the surface with a tacky substance, applying the powder, and then coating the powder with a barrier coating that is insoluble in the solvent used in the tacky layer. The process is repeated to add the desired amount of powder. By the selection of powder size, size distribution, shape, and number of layers, precise control of mass loading can be achieved. The method can be used with titanium powder to form powder-coated fiber, non-woven mat, and tape cast performs which can be processed into fiber reinforced composite materials.

Abstract: A critical event notification system continuously monitors patient statistics and lab data to detect critical events, and automatically pages a responsible physician or physicians, each having an alphanumeric pager. In particular, a computer is used to continually access real-time data and multiple hospital databases which are periodically updated. These databases include patient chart databases, databases corresponding to patient history and databases maintained by various labs. The computer, preferably a clinical information system, is automatically provided with certain data, or periodically extracts it from other, relational databases. The computer automatically reviews this data, makes the critical event determination, and formulates an alphanumeric message that is informative as to the patient's condition and the reasons why a critical event was detected. After automatically retrieving from a database a personal identification number ("PIN") for a remote pager of each physician responsible for the patient, the computer automatically establishes modem contact with a paging network, and causes the network to page each responsible physician and transmit to them the alphanumeric message. The alphanumeric message preferably indicates patient name, diagnosis, the event prompting the page, and the name and return telephone number of medical personnel at the hospital who are attending the particular patient.

Abstract: When a consultation subject screen and reference data are to be displayed on a single screen, the constitution of the screen becomes complicated. If auxiliary information is to be used, then the auxiliary information must be created, and the creation and distribution of the auxiliary information is expensive. Moreover, it takes a long time to search for the page which matches the displayed consultation subject screen and consult with a customer while referring to the required data. A consultation service system according to the present invention comprises a consultation service terminal for performing a consultation service with a customer, and a server which uses a link data table for linking the data comprised in the consultation subject screen which correspond to the consultation subject of the customer with auxiliary information for assisting the consultation service in order to create a virtual screen comprising the consultation subject screen and auxiliary information, and outputs an image of the virtual screen to the consultation service terminal.
