Title: A method for generating hypermutable organisms
Inventor: KINZLER KENNETH W
IPC: C07K14/47
Filed: 2001-05-14
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 and animal varieties with novel and useful properties can be prepared more efficiently than by relying on the natural rate of mutation. The enhanced rate of mutation can be further augmented using mutagens. Moreover, the hypermutability of mismatch repair deficient cells can be remedied to stabilize cells or mammals with useful mutations.
Patent CA-2410996-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCCARTHY BRIAN R
IPC: B42D15/02
Filed: 2001-06-01
Abstract: Ultraremovable adhesive is applied to a paper sheet to form therewith a liner sheet, and the liner sheet (844) is laminated to a cardstock sheet (836) to form a laminate cardstock. The cardstock sheet is then die cut therethrough (840), but not through the liner sheet, to form cardstock cut lines that define at least in part perimeters of business cards (or other printable media). The outer face of the liner sheet is then die cut therethrough, but not through the cardstock sheet, to form liner sheet strips on a back side of the cardstock sheet. Some of the strips define cover strips covering some of the cardstock cut lines, and others of the strips define waste strips. The waste strips are then matrix removed from the back of the cardstock sheet.  According to a preferred (dry laminate) embodiment the only liner sheet die cut is parallel to the leading edge of the sheet and forms a narrow leading edge liner strip (864) which is removed. The resulting business card sheet construction is then fed through a printer or copier by the user and the desired indicia printed on the front sides of the business cards, while the cover strips hold the cards together as a unit sheet construction. After this printing operation, the printed cards are easily peeled off of the cover strips, ready for use. By designing the sheet construction to form the printed media with different sizes and shapes and by including optional scored fold lines, and/or additional flexibility cut lines or flexibility perforation lines, media aside from business cards, such as post cards and greeting cards, can be constructed.

Abstract: Resource units are assigned within a cell of a wireless time division duplex communication system using code division multiple access. Each resource units is associated with a time slot and a code. For selected ones of the cell's resource units, the code interference level is measured during that unit's time slot and using that unit's code. The code interference level is compared to a threshold to determine whether that unit has an acceptable code interference level. Resource units are assigned to communications out of the unit's having acceptable interference levels.

Title: Control system for choke valve of carburetor
Inventor: MORIYAMA HIROSHI
IPC: F02M1/10
Filed: 2002-12-24
Abstract: A choke valve control system includes a choke-operating lever for opening and closing a choke valve of a carburetor, a choke spring for biasing the valve in an opening direction, and a damper for controlling the opening motion of the valve to a lower speed, when the choke valve is opened from its fully closed position by a biasing force of the choke spring. The choke-operating lever, the choke spring and the damper are connected to the choke valve of the carburetor. In this choke valve control system, the damper includes a damper housing, a rotor, and a damper oil which is accommodated in a sealed manner in the damper housing and applies a viscosity resistance to the rotation of the rotor, which resistance increases as the viscosity increases with decreasing temperature. Thus, the time required for opening the choke valve can be controlled in accordance with the level of the environmental temperature of an engine, thereby providing the stabilization of the warming operation of the engine and a reduction in fuel consumption.

Title: Methods and systems for evaluating a matching between measured data and standards
Inventor: BREU HEINZ
IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 2001-07-23
Abstract: The present invention proposes an approach to matching measured data points representative of a physical property (for instance the measured peak location or positions of an in-lane size standard which represent DNA fragment length) to a set of standard values of that property (for instance a size standard definition). The matching is evaluated by comparing ratios of intervals between selected pairs of the measured data points with ratios of the intervals between adjacent pairs of the standard values, to find the measured data points that best match the standard values.

Filed: 2001-08-28
Abstract: A concept identification system useful in reducing and/or representing text content of an electronic document and in highlighting the content of the document. A concept knowledge base comprises a plurality of concepts and each concept comprises one or more subconcepts linked to each other and to the concept on a hierarchical basis. One or more of the subconcepts may be linked to one or more subconcepts of another concept. A concept matching module matches text of the document to subconcepts of the concept knowledge base and assesses any links between the matched subconcepts and other concepts and/or subconcepts of the concept knowledge base. From this a determination is made of whether the document relates to a concept of the knowledge base. With an identification of such concept a document representation generator may produce a precis of the document based on a template associated with such concept. For highlighting of a document a highlighter module determines key content of the input document and an interface integrates the concept identification system and the highlighter module. An output module produces an output highlight document from the key content.

IPC: H04Q3/00
Filed: 2001-12-21
Abstract: Number portability is a service where a subscriber can keep his old telephon e number within a portability cluster and thus retain easy contactibility. Because of number portability, a called address, i.e. B-number, no longer refers to the subscription network/number range owner and the old rule "the number range of the called party reveals the tariff level" is no longer vali d. To overcome this defect all intelligent network-like service invocation requests are routed (3-2) via a network node performing a number portability  function to the network node controlling the service. The node performing th e number portability function performs (3-3) a mapping of the B-number and relays (3-4) the service invocation requests indicating the subscription network/number range owner.
