Title: Design of spreadsheet functions for working with tables of data
Inventor: PEYTON-JONES SIMON
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2005-06-27
Abstract: The present invention provides several database formulas that can manipulate large sets of data. Each database formula is customizable and repeatable without user intervention. Thus, users may enter numerous options that can cover the user's desire for data output in certain forms or formats, select a set of input data, and consistently receive a set of output data. In some embodiments, the user may refer to the set of data semantically instead of specifying a range of cells to use in the database formula. Referring to the data semantically allows the database formulas to adjust to changes in the range of cells new data may occupy.

Title: Combination therapy for anticoagulation
Inventor: NESSELROAD JAMES M III
IPC: A61K31/12
Filed: 2004-01-07
Abstract: A combination anticoagulation medicament including vitamin K with warfarin in an oral form is described. Between 50 and 5000 milligrams of vitamin K are combined in a single oral medication with 0.5 to 15 milligrams of warfarin for administration. The combination of vitamin K with warfarin in a single orally dosed form is a novel approach to improving the effectiveness of anticoagulation. The combination allows for broader application of warfarin in medical anticoagulation and reduces the variability of anticoagulation due to the influences of diet, additional medications, nutritional status, changes in physical condition, and potentially other factors. Use of the combination therapy improves the safety of warfarin as an appropriate anticoagulant for many medical conditions.

Abstract: A resource and partition manager includes a power on/power off mechanism that is used to assure a hardware resource is powered down when control of the resource is removed from a logical partition, and to assure the hardware resource is powered up when control of the hardware resource is transferred to a logical partition. In the alternative, the resource and partition manager may simply place the hardware resource in a power on reset state when the hardware resource is transferred to a logical partition. In this manner, when made available to a partition, the hardware resource is in a power-on reset state, which is the state typically expected by the logical partition.

Abstract: A medical needle shield apparatus (300) is provided that includes a needle hub (332) having an outer needle cannula (317) extending therefrom. An inner needle (316) is disposed for slidable movement with the outer needle cannula (317). At least one shield (300) is extensible from a retracted position to an extended position to enclose a distal end of the inner needle (317). The shield (300) includes a binding member (364) disposed within the shield (300) and defines binding surfaces (368) that form an aperture (366) configured for slidable receipt of the inner needle (316).

Title: Methods and software program product for mutual authentication in a communications network
Inventor: MARCELLI MAURIZIO
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2004-03-05
Abstract: A method for mutual authentication between a subscriber and a communications network, in which a random number is generated at the subscriber's terminal (1, 1~). The random number is sent to the authentication sub-system (6, 6~) managing the authentication of the subscriber for the access to the network, e.g. together with a subscriber's identifier. At the authentication sub-system, the identifier is used for checking the credentials of the subscriber.  During the authentication process, parameters related to the subscriber's identifier are generated at the authentication sub-system, and the random number is encrypted using a session key formed using such parameters. The encrypted random number is then sent back to the subscriber's terminal, together with information needed to terminal in order to reconstruct the session key. After having reconstructed the session key, the subscriber's terminal decrypts the random number and checks matching with its generated random number. The matching between the two numbers allows the verification, by the subscriber, that the access point (2) to which he/she is connecting is not a fake access point.

Abstract: There is provided herein a sensor for use in patient monitoring, wherein the level of patient activity in a chair or bed is tracked to determine whether or not that patient has exhibited sufficient activity to merit eliminating a scheduled assisted relocation to a new position. The instant device senses the time since a patient last relocated into a different sitting or lying position. If the patient has not moved during some predetermined time period, the nursing staff will be notified that it is time to manually reposition the patient. On the other hand, if the patient has significantly changed position, the device will not signal to the caregiver that a move is necessary, thereby eliminating the need in some cases to rouse the patient from an otherwise sound sleep.
